awesome jam

had an awesome jam last night. Hopefully the first of many rehearsals.

Dave Thomas on keyboards and Rory Goulding on drums and me of course....

This will most likely be the best band I've ever been in. It was truly a pleasure playing with these guys. They are both very skilled and talented and have a good sense of what is appropriate to a groove. They rock. And we soon will rock as a band :)

evening jam...

had some awesome fun going over some songs tonight with my friend Dave Thomas. we went over a few songs, some originals of mine and some covers. My roomy clapped often :)

I was a bit rusty as I hadn't jammed with anyone else in over a month, but it went pretty well aside from some forgotten lyrics :)

new video day

The song is about this girl who pretends to be happy even though she's not. Spending great amounts of time covering up her unhappiness so people dont' see how unhappy she is. The whole world is a lot like that sometimes. Many prefer to hide their sadness than let it show. Sadness is apparently weak... while joy is strong.... I don't really get it I guess. Nothing wrong with being sad in a sad world.

These are my lovely new boots for stage. Not only are they hot.... they are pretty comfortable considering the height :)

Modeling

I have been modeling for fun for several years. I have usually posted the pics along with my music, but I've decided to separate the two just a little. I now have a page on my website dedicated just to my modeling. here's a direct link....

Lyrica's Modeling


and here's one of my favourite pictures off that page...

I enjoy modeling, I enjoy being in front of the camera and I really enjoy seeing how a photographer see's me. A good photographer can show you sides of yourself you've never seen if they catch you just the right way :)

Merry Christmas, Joyous Yule and all the other holy days....

Despite the cynical nature of the song I do wish everyone a very merry Christmas, Joyous Yule, happy holy days, and peace on earth. But...

While the Christmas Spirit truly does go around during this time of year, today is really no different than yesterday. Our good cheer and goodwill toward our fellow humans, hasn't solved world hunger, it hasn't stopped war, it hasn't stopped bigotry, racism, or poverty; not even for one day. So just a little bit of a cyncal song as a reminder of what the world really looks like to a lot of people.

First Day Airing on Wigwan Radio in the UK

So for the first time without it being a contest, or local radio stations, I got some airplay on wigwam radio... here...
