18 and Life - what the song means to me

I remember rocking out to this song when I was a teenager, cruising in my car and banging my head to Skid Row, and the parties we had and the good times back then. It seemed like it was so cool to be bad.

But this song also has other values for me, as I have dealt with the consequences of what alcohol can bring, Broken homes, broken bones, near death, depression, anger, over night jail time, and the list goes on and on.

I also have a son that has spent sometime behind bars for his consequences with drugs and alcohol, and the last three years I haven’t been able to see him much because of it. It sucks and it’s sad, but I have a higher power and that is GOD that helps me keep it real in life now.

18 and Life is what can happen if you turn to the dark side in Life. We all do bad shit in life but some of us get caught, and eventually we all suffer the consequences, whether it’s jail for real, or jail in our minds.

Thinking about putting out some new music soon

Now that things are starting to open up a bit, I’m thinking a lot about getting back down to Nashville to record some new music.

Been writing a lot with my friends from Tennessee and Texas U.S.A., and it’s been over a year since my last visit to The ‘ States.

Passing the time with long motorcycle rides with my photographer friend, Sofia.

Here are a couple of the pictures she took last week.
