Music: Is it a hobby or is it work? It's both. But I can't think of any other "work" that I'd bring with me on a vacation to Europe.

Venues get flooded with booking emails every day. Showing up in person, calling, or catching the manager at a show gets you way further. Full episode of Mic Check is on YouTube.

There Ain't Nothin' Wrong with the Radio by Aaron Tippin. Pure 90s country fun, and the crowd sings every word.

Live from York, England. What an amazing town!

I love the EV infrastructure in Ireland and the UK. It seems that every gas station I鈥檝e been to has EV charging. It鈥檚 everywhere. But it floors me that they won鈥檛 allow FSD.

Gimme Three Steps is an absolute mind-bender to try and play and sing on the suitcase drum, but it's totally worth it.

That Ain't My Truck by Rhett Akins. 90s country heartbreak at its finest.

I would love for Amkrak to even be 1/2 as good as trains in Europe

Once I started treating every gig as a chance to capture content, everything changed. Full episode of Mic Check is on YouTube.

Fool Hearted Memory by George Strait. One of his early ones that deserves more love.

The Thrill Is Gone by B.B. King. I always have to sneak a little blues into a country set.

Remind me again why I don鈥檛 just move to Scotland?

I immediately get excited when I see a small restaurant or pub with a fireplace. Scotland and Ireland have this figured out.

Every time I play "Everlong," there are always at least a few people over the age of 30 that instantly turn and give a nod of approval. I love me some Foo Fighters. #everlong #foofighters #90srock #acousticcover #livemusic #guitarcover #coversongs

Alisha and I got a chance to perform at an open mic in Edinburgh last night. That was so much fun and the crowd was amazing. The music scene here is incredible.

Building the suitcase drum cost me a total of $5 at Goodwill and some spare drum parts that I had lying around. By far the best investment in music gear I've ever made.
