Ha, yeah it really is July 19th already. Wow. This summer. It's sucking big time but I'm trying to stay on the sunny side.
Yup of course there's this whole COVID thing happening but unlike most of my other music and art making friends shelter in place for me does not equal increased artistic productivity. Nope.
Not like much of my time is my own these days but pile Covid on top and then stir in a generous portion of crazy systemic fungal infection caused by who knows what rendering my hands useless and viola its now pretty much the shittiest summer in recent memory.
Now one good thing is that everything we've been doing to keep from bringing home Covid 19 and infecting the lady friends mom has to this point touch wood, been successful so there's that. But other wise as far as getting to or finding time or even feeling like or being physically able to work on anything is yeah well thats a different story.
One thing I have managed to make happen is a Community Fundraiser for my good bud Folk and Outsider Artist, Clyde Jones. Clyde well into his 80's eyesight failing had a couple falls ended up in the hospital and rehab. After after a three week stay that was complicated by all this Covid shit, he came back to us in a wheel chair. It had been determined for the time being he could not live on his own so everyone here has open their hearts and their homes to help get him over this new bump in the road. We've met are originally goal of 10K but health care ain't cheap so if'n you're inclined here's the link to our fundraiser, Community Aid Fundraiser for Folk Artist Clyde Jones.
Okaythen sorry for dragging my butt on this update but yeah the wind has just not been with me. While trying to get over this infection I need to make more of an effort to make lemonade. And I will. So check back here September for a new update and if in the meantime ya wanna see if there's something new follow me on Soundcloud or Facebook and oh yeah if ya want pop on by over to the Breadfoot Store, T-shirts and CDs available and since I've not been able to make music or work a side job well ya know I can use your support.
Appreciate ya! Cheers! XOBF

Believe it or not my hands actually are looking better in these pics. On a full regime of supplements to try and knock out the infection. Not fun.

Pic of Clyde putting the finishing touches on a little gator from the other year when was still a bit more able.
