Big ups to my Mayfield Homies, you know who you are.

Respect.

A grand night for a drive up North.

Cheers to Colin on Sound & Lighting. Way to go.

Also thanks to Dr Rock for keeping me company on the drive and to all the folk who came out last night.

Bill & Mr Wizards special project is continuing to deliver good results. 

Only 5 songs from Rogue State have made it into the set so far, there's more work to be done.

What we need though, is...more songs.

Yeah it's that time.

We regularly rotate though songs. Sure there are keepers, then there are Evolved Versions. Also a few favourite covers that demonstrate some respect to the Masters.

As we move into summer, it's time for new stuff.

With the completion of recent recording there's some more space to write, as well. Bill & Mr Wizard were hard at it on Friday brewing another batch.

Plus we're reviewing what other songs we might try. A few from local friends, maybe a few other hero bands.

It's spring, a good time to plant seeds.

As Dr Rock observed on the drive, we spend a lot of time thinking through what we do.

When you have a good night, as a result of that thinking, rehearsing, planning and consideration for each other, it seems worth the trouble.

Shout out to Mark, Sandy (next time!) and to all the folks who joined us last night.

Another road trip this week.

Thank to Mark S. for helping us out.

Retail double CD out tomorrow, will be with us, you know where.

It's been a rainy period in Sydney, we're still working on the Video for this but felt like sharing it.

Brother Bill, Mr Wizard and The Quartermaster were seen down by the bay, Excel spreadsheets in hand.

Bits of tart with pear, an unusually hot spring day and the blue washed light of the bay.

It's been a big year, here aboard the stormcellar (yeah I'm mixing my metaphors again...also I borrowed this pic from Southern Swan cruises...what a shot huh?)

Ahem. To continue with said metaphor...

Safe Harbour, Rogue State :-)

Managing these long voyages take a lot of thought.

Finding a balance takes effort. Setting boundaries, making choices about who we engage with.

It's a big sea, filled with all sorts of creatures.

Thanks to the very regular and hard work of the crew, the ship is in good order, albums are finished, next projects are in development and a reasonable schedule for the completion of work considered.

Bravo to Brother Bill, Mr Wizard, Rosie and Theo for sustained effort. As the world Down Under winds down to close of year, we're travelling at a good, comfortable pace. 

Shout outs to NP 

I had the pleasure of some solid philosophy discussions this week with cellar dwellers. I'm doing a little Youtube watching right now.

We continue to make an effort on the blog, at the shows, to give you a breather, some calm company.

I liked this video, thanks to Noel P. for pointing me in the direction. I'm sharing it here as part of that continued effort.
