This semester has been crazy and i know i'll get busier and busier as it progresses, but no one ever said life would be stress-free and easy........that is certainly not the case, but a little stress and work never hurt anyone, you just gotta learn how to prioritize. I guess in the long run all this work and stuff will pay off, I certainly hope so.
Now a trip down music row, I LOVE Gram Parsons and every project or thing he ever did. He was such a talent taken way before his time. He was like the John Lennon of country music I think, a little less folk than Dylan but if you are a songwriter in country or rock music Gram Parsons probally somehow influenced you. If you say he didn't start listening to him, the byrds, the flying burrito brothers, and the international submarine band. They will change you and your songwriting for the better. Also Mute Rooster is going strong and growing as a band we have some really exciting stuff we can't wait to share with the world. Me and Will also have fallen in love with the album "A Taste of Yesterday's Wine" by Merle Haggard and George Jones, its so good. In closing the two best performing singer/songwriters in country music right now in my opinion are Alan Jackson (I mean come on!) and Merle Haggard, who like a fine wine only gets better with time.

This is just another place for me to post my thoughts other than myspace, this can go a little deeper. I'm a Jesus Lover and I am not ashamed about that, most of these blogs will most likely concern Christ considering he saved my life. I also write music and play guitar, most of my friends consider me emo. But I dont put labels on myself, I am just Eli.
