Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay

Hey everyone. Had a great weekend with great friends and great music. Started off Friday night with a singer/songwriter round at Indy Hostel featuring my great friends Cory Miller, Dusty Clark, and Scott Kline. It also featured one of my favorite (new, since I just heard him for the first time Friday) singers Josh Lemasters. He is really awesome, and you HAVE to check him out. Hopefully we will all be playing some shows together, as I am starting to book my summer with as many shows as I can for me and Andreas new project.


On Saturday I had a show at Mo'Joes Coffee Shop in downtown Indy. It was a show for the group Democracy Matters at IUPUI. I had a ton of really good friends come out and I appreciate all of them showing up and clapping for all my tunes. It was an awesome crowd and I actually had a few songs that hushed the whole crowd, which if you have ever played at a coffee shop the crowds can me kinda noisy. I played about a half hour set that was 7 songs long. Here is a set list.



Night After Night


Greyhound


Cities Are Cold


Bury Me


Wonder Why


Not At Home


A Decent Proposal


It was a really fun place to play, and I even got my drinks half off. I hope to play there again. And I really hope to play for Democracy Matters again. It is a really awesome group that does some great work locally and nationally. Right now they are working very hard to get some legislation passed to make it illegal for private corporations to buy out public lawmakers. Which just makes sense.


Like I said I hope to be booking most of the summer and if any of you out there know of places to play let me know so I can get in contact with them. Then me and Andrea can get out there and start promoting the album that we are recording later this summer to help us fund our adoption. You can get more info on that on my Myspace Page.


Also this week Andrea got her Ukulele in the mail. She looks so cute with it, and she is picking it up really quickly. Hopefully she can join me in some shows soon. I will let all of you know more info on shows and stuff as it becomes available. Hope you all had as great a weekend as I did, and I hope you all have an equally great week.


Love You


Mike

  2. Hey Mike- that's really cool that you are getting to play your music around Indy. I still have your Best Sale Ever cd. And Josh Lemasters- we went to college with him. He's pretty good. I always wondered if he would go somewhere with his music. I found your blog through your facebook, and I'm enjoying reading it.
