Waiting. Doing a mess of that this week. Election results, recovery from hernia surgery uh yeah seems like almost everything is up in the air. Yet time is not standing still. Nope, it's moving faster and faster and it's frenetic AF and stressful as hell.
So yeah here in bed. Doctors orders. Ain't easy setting still yet there's a piece of mesh that's been stitched to the muscle under the skin where I can't see it so I gotta take it slow. Just have to trust that it's doing what we hope. Fingers crossed.
Pleased to say that I'm mostly over the fungal infection that came on back in May. Bummer is that I have to work to maintain a rather strict diet that prohibits the consumption of pretty much anything that contains sugar or turns into sugar when consumed. Yup. Hmpf, ya know the two things I'll miss most coming into this holiday season? Bourbon and Pumpkin Pie with mountains of whipped cream. Doesn't seem fair does it?
So - big breathe and a sigh - not much new to share cause well I haven't had much time in-between to work on anything new. Do a lot of music in my head. A lot of dreaming but not a lot of doing.
Best I can do is to rehash some news about the 30th anniversary of the release of my first full length studio recording. Band was called The Mooncalves. Album was Friends of the Young and Cynical, Ectomorphic Mr. Douglas and it was released on none other then Merkin Records outta Baltimore, hon. Parked a small selection of numbers from the album on Soundcloud. Player in the side bar for your convenience. And well though it's apparent that I'm going to fall tragically short of my goal of 12 numbers sketched this year I really feel like I've got a good start on Sunnyland. What I have done is parked in a playlist on Soundcloud and the link is there in the sidebar. Aim is to have it on a stage somewhere in some capacity by the time I turn 60 years old. Just 57 now so...
....in the meantime while we're waiting why not go on and follow me on Soundcloud or Facebook and please don't forget to pop on over to the Breadfoot Store where I coffee mugs, T-shirts, sweat shirts and all three Breadfoot CDs available.
In the hole big time since I haven't been able to perform or work my side hustle much this summer and now being laid up for another 4-6 weeks recovering from surgery yeah, I could really use some support. So with the holidays coming up it's great time for you to support local and independent music : ) Best to you and yours for the season. Cheers and thanks! XOBF

1990 folks. Yessir! Pre-Breadfoot the band was The Mooncalves and 2020 is the 30th anniversary of the release of Friends of the Young and Cynical, Ectomorphic Mr. Douglas.
