READY to get TIRED!

Here we go! Welcome to my TIRED AMERICAN DREAM blog! I made a completely new blog so I could keep everyone up to date on the rehearsal process as we prepare to mount this show (PREMIER) at Harrison Hilltop Theatre in Davenport, Iowa. Please add yourself as a follower and you will receive notifications. So... just a quick rundown for those who don't know:

In 2000 something I decided I was going to record some of my songs that had been laying around for sometime. I put together a great band and we went to work. We also decided about 1/2 way through the process that we were going to play out, and began learning covers as well. Long story short... we recorded our album, played our much anticipated CD release party and fell apart. Being resourceful, I took the songs, added more and wrote a musical. As I was writing the show, I was cast in "The Buddy Holly Story". A guest performer (Tristan Tapscott)came in to play the great drummer, Jerry Allison. Anyway, one night we were talking and it was one of those moments of... "I have a theatre" & "well, I have a show". I gave him a CD of DC KEY and he fell in love (mostly probably because of all the love songs). The rest is history. I finished writing and he secured a slot in their 2010 season, right between "Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf" and "RENT". And now it's here! Rehearsals begin Saturday, January 30th.
