Psst … I’m Back!

Readers of Tonguetwisted Ink, I’m not going to apologize for not posting for a month because it would be lame, but I am going to explain where I’ve been.

I started this blog in Fall 2009 to tell the story of my move to Nashville to record a new Hello Kelly album, put together a new group of guys and (in theory) take over the world with rock & roll.  I’ve done the first 2 of those things … the last one is pending.  In late February, my drummer Ben, my guitarist Travis, my bassist George and I crammed into a rehearsal space in Nashville, TN and logged 50 hours in 5 days.  We learned old & new Hello Kelly songs and, when that was done, we loaded into my van, and hauled up to Ontario.

For the month of March, we’ve been touring Ontario on the INTENSITY IN 10 CITIES TOUR also featuring To Tell.  So far we’ve played North Bay, Scarborough, Welland, Oakville and Mount Forest.  Every show has been a TON of fun and we’re getting better and better.  (So is ToTell.  If you haven’t checked them out yet, make sure you do.  They’re releasing a new record soon … I’ve heard some of the new material – they’re the kind of songs that make me jealous because I wish I’d written them!)

It’s been a busy and hectic month … And I’ve been so distracted with rehearsals, driving, playing shows and bonding with my band by playing Goldeneye for Nintendo 64 … that I haven’t had much time to blog.  At all.

But that’s going to change.  Now that the band is on it’s feet again and playing shows, my headspace has been cleared and I can be a writer again.  Expect reviews for 24, Chuck and How I Met Your Mother from time to time.  Expect a review for the Our Lady Peace concert I attended last night.  (Oh.My.Gosh!)  Expect news about my personal life, my quest as a fiction writer, the adventures of Hello Kelly … and more.

Thanks for your patience, and thanks for reading!
