Here are what some folks have had to say so far about the album.

"Try not to like this! You will fail." --The Big Takeover

"It virtually glows!" --West Coast Performer

"Vivid stories of everyday hope and suffering... It's like a happy smile punctuated with missing teeth." --Rediviva

And here's a video of a brand new song that my friend Mike Midlo (aka Pancake Breakfast) recorded

Sounds Like:okay, so I had a friend tell me that i should add a "Donations" button to my page so that people could give me money... well, i thought it would be weird to ask people to give me money... so i didn't do it...

but then i got to thinkin'...
what if you got a free copy of the record and wanted a place to donate for it? or maybe you really enjoyed a show and wanted to say so with a "tip" of sorts...

or maybe you just don't have time to travel the country singing songs for folks but are glad that it gets done and know that no only is it not a lucrative endeavor, but at times it gets downright costly!

Maybe all of those are good enough reasons to add a button...

So, if you, for whatever reason, you want to donate to the continuation of my touring and the sharing of my music, please feel free to do so here...

thanks, -dustin
