Howdy. Fil here. Just home from a little cross country run with Leslie and the Badgers and Ferraby Lionheart. Pictures to come soon. There were certainly a lot of highlights – but near the top – turns out there’s a band we shared a bill with called Spontaneous Nugent. Just saying.

greetings from NC.

Asheville, NC – where you can buy your banjo strings at the pawn shop. And you don’t even need a stupid permit. Like you do in order to get the awesome handgun with the starwars super scope on top.

the view from Clay’s house. not bad, eh? We’re here for another week to continue work on Sally Jaye’s next one. Clay’s a wizard. “Hey can you make this organ sound like Benmont’s?” Done. Thanks for that.

We’re back after the week in time to play at the Bootleg next wednesday – the 28th at 11pm – as a part of Craig Wedren’s (of “shudder to think” fame – for those of you who were fans – such as myself) residency.

Hope to see some of you there. Drop us a line. We miss you. We talk about you in wistful terms when you’re not around.

I’m writing to you now from Asheville, North Carolina – where i’m working with Sally Jaye on a record. Clay Blair is at the helm – he’s the ridiculously talented youngen who mixed The Water Tower (forthcoming – i promise!). i’m sinking into a couch under the heat vent listening to Jay Brown playing dobro in the live room. The man is sick. But, you know, like in an awesome way. It’s gorgeous here. Actual-Winter has been a nice change-up from the LA early-year months. We’re staying up in a cabin in the mountains just outside of town. Love. This.

The Chase: All Spots is joining Charlie Wadhams and Leslie and the Badgers on the bill for Ferraby Lionheart’s final residency night at the Bootleg Theater this Tuesday. I’ve been playing in Ferraby’s band and all the nights have had murderous line-ups. This one is not to be missed. Come join us!!

(do it!).

Nothing but good stuff for *all* of us in 2010!
