I Can’t Make You Love Me

it’s one of the most beautiful songs ever written in my opinion.  there are two versions of the song - both equally mezmerizing.  bonnie raitt and george michael.  now i’m working on adding it to my set.  gotta learn the chords first.  i am loving the challenge.

tonight i got my first night of booking.  my gig coming up in september 17 at kavadume (virtual world cafe) is going to be made up of artists i’m lucky enough to know and are in town to play.  ananda sen is joining me for the night.  phenomenal r&b/soul singer.  i will keep you posted on who else is joining that night.

i get back from cleveland september 16, the night before my gig, after i greet my new nephew who hopefully will make his appearance while i’m still in cleveland and not on the night i have a gig at palmers!  today he gave his mommy and daddy a bit of a scare because he didn’t move around for a bit.  turns out when the baby gets bigger there ain’t a lot of room so they chill a lot.  i told my sister-in-law that she’s got a fat, lazy baby in there!  it helped her laugh and chill a bit herself. 

i’ve spent the last couple of nights working on my dream journal.  i go through tons of magazines and cut out pics that provoke an emotion in me and then make collages in this giant red book of mine.  you can know a lot about me if you flipped through that book.  i’m even getting to know myself better.  try it out.  it’s like you’re back in first grade with a pair of scissors, some elmer’s glue and some magazines.  remarkably, it’s a way into your mind and soul.
