Playing a crapload of shows (for me at least) and taking a huge personal risk with this next EP.

I'm equal parts scared and thrilled by the prospects here. I might blow up my life and that's cool.

Also personal achievement in getting a skank pit to happen for the song Happy Place. This was rad. Do stupid shit to save the vibe.

Sometimes the show is getting its vibe merked by the snow, so you take it to the firepit and bring out a cover for the whole team to get involved.

Nothin heals like a bit of the Mountain Goats

But its not just about how I'm doing. I'm like sharing the room with acts that are routinely knocking my socks off. I have zero right getting to play with a band like @spudbugs.bsky.social (you shoulda seen that skank pit) but nevertheless we were on the same bill and it was special as hell

To expand upon this, I had like a bunch of magic moments last weekend. Some where I could hear a pin drop when I play, and others where I could get a good mosh going. Showing this to myself at this time last year woulda had me floored. I think I'm really doing something right
