Blog Challenge and Mountain Bike Racing-what it has in common with being a Musician

I am always looking for new motivators and new ways to spread the word on my music, so I joined the Ariel Promotions blog challenge. It’s a good motivator because when I am in between touring and writing an album, I feel like: who gives a crap about what I’m doing? I just need to……


Dedication to Tracy

I lost a dear friend a few weeks ago. I just found out yesterday. She had been ill for some time but I think I was enough in denial it was still a shock. I figured if anyone could win against it, she could; hell she had beat it before.

I’ve known Tracy since I was……


To ride or not to ride…there is no question.

I’m going out for a road ride on my mountain bike; yeah, I know it’s strange, but I have to ride on the road to get from point A to point B, but will be riding some trails in between. I’m working on my fitness today. It’s a challenge, because it “hurts” (not in a……


Kiss, Tom Jackson, and planning the Robin Brock show.

It’s been a while since I’ve performed live with a band. I did a few house concerts last year; acoustic shows with me and my guitar telling a bunch of people reclining on couches and pillows about my songs and entertaining them…sound easy?

Not really.

I’ve performed on a stage since I was fifteen. I always thought……


Back in the Saddle

Yesterday I went on my first outdoor bike ride since my surgery. It felt pretty strange. First, because I am riding with flat pedals; I’m so used to being clipped in, so different muscles are used during each pedal revolution; more quad power as opposed to all leg power. It rained like hell but nothing……


Does Recovery = Insanity? Exerpts from Rants, Revelations and Rock and Roll

Does recovery = insanity? Let’s just say I have my moments. Recovery from my hip replacement surgery is going very well, but the frustration level is high at times; the time has gone fast in some ways and slow in others. I won’t give you all the gory details here, but I’ve posted some in……


Surgery/Recovery

It’s a little creepy when you can hear the drills and feel the pounding of hammers and whine of suction machines during surgery. Four weeks ago I had my hip replaced. I wasn’t aware I was only having a spinal (they paralyze you from the waist down) until the day before. During the procedure, I……

Master and Slave…Dirty Dirty! Song Award

And the Rockrealms award for Dirty Dirty! Song goes to Robin Brock’s Master and Slave.

I love it! It’s all about perspective, but Jon’s comment about it needing a video has gotten the creative gears grinding in my mind…good news for the girls…not likely I’m going to have half naked women in one of my videos…….
