You Ought To Know

So, this blog is pretty much two days over due, and I have some new music/videos I’m preparing to post in the coming weeks but don’t have them ready just yet.  So, instead I thought I’d give you a rundown of some of the essentials in my life right now.

Holland (part 1)

Well, I’ve been in Holland for two days, and last night I played for the first time at ACC (the church in Amersfoort).
