I’ve just uploaded a new song I wrote with my guitar player, Ron Taylor.
We’ve just reunited after a 4 year hiatus, and it feels so good!
We’ll be playing around in San Francisco soon under our “band” name: Park and Ride.
(He’s “Park” I’m “Ride” 🙂
Hope you’ll come check us out.

And now, I bring you
Something Better.
Ron and I wrote this song many years ago right after I’d talked him out of joining the Navy. He was joining the Navy because he felt he had nothing better to do with his life. I convinced him that even flipping burgers would be better than potentially dying in some stupid war.
Now he’s happily married with two beautiful children and he still thanks me for helping him out on that fateful day. (Although, I must admit, at the time I was being purely selfish: I didn’t want to lose my guitar player!)
Ron and I have recently reunited (August 2003) and we just recorded this track last weekend by playing into the microphone on my video camera. I played it for some friends, and they all liked it a lot. So I’m taking their advice.
It’s rough, but I think they’re right. It’s good enough for rock n’ roll!
Hope you like it!
