2019 Selfie Flashback

Bye Bye 2019!
 

Hey, how are you brother (echo: brother, rother, other, ther, er)?

Screw 2020
Man, I'm getting older, but I feel younger, more greyer, but better (between the ears and behind the eyes) than ever. Living the life.

What's up next? I guess....

Musically? 12 motherf...ing (GREAT!?) new songs to unscrew yourself in every way. Almost in the final stages, I'm still mixing, finishing lyrics/ vocals. I guess a fresh 2020 spring release will be on the menu. Excited!?

What did you do in 2019?

Breathe in and out....once in a while I hit a passing cowbell in a dissonant way. Aw sucks!
Musically, I did it again. Self-Kicker!
