We have the night off in San Antonio. It's good for me to take a
breather because i have a chest cold that is getting a good grip
on me. Everyone is pretty low key after the first few shows.
Justin is hanging in the bus and writing music.



Last night I wandered into the bathrooms in the venue. I looked
at the floor and saw a familiar symbol...




The process symbol shows up in the oddest places. It's an ancient
symbol based on the weave of the auspicious writing. One of the
eight auspicious Buddhist symbols. I have it tattooed on my left
forearm. It's become the symbol of our little creative family over
the years.

Yesterday my Steinberger double neck started acting up. I got
busy with a soldering iron and replaced the input jacks which
were pretty much worn out. We brought in a guitar tech to
scope it out but more surgery is required. Unfortunately I don't
have a back up. It's a limited release and I'm waiting for them
to send me another once they do the next run.
