Hello, i've seem to have found my way back to this blog.....it's been a couple of weeks since i updated!

      Well, i finally got the car back on the road and about $525 lighter in the wallet...lol...what am i saying? I don't ever have that much money in my wallet! That's what that little ATM card is for isn't it?

       I've been practicing on some of my tunes quite a bit lately, so i can add a couple more tunes to my "myspace" music page. Right now, my song "Less" is posted and a practice demo of "Say Goodbye", that Bud Buckley helped me with is also there. He manned the recording equipment while i played and sang. So i hit a couple bad notes and flubbed up a chord at the end of the song...lol...i hate getting almost all the way thru a song, then strike a sour note...ahhhh it's just practice....oh well, as they say in the movie business, "Take 2"! ......i would also give Bud a break and do some recording at home on my own(although not as good quality in my opinion), but good ol' me went and blew the tweeters on my speakers while trying to record the guitar track for my song, "Disappear", and now they sit at the local music shop getting repaired!  (well, actually my wife moved the equipment and didn't plug all the chords back in properly, but we're even now. I blew our friends' speakers when we first tested it out last year!-lol)So in the meantime, i'm stuck until i get those back. Hopefully it won't be much longer, since they've been there a week so far.

       Just go to myspace.com (you can click on it on the side of my blog in the links section), and type in my name, jim salhoff, in the search thingy....if it don't work, maybe you should sign up(it's free!) and you can listen to alot of FREE music and download some too....you can download my song Less for nothing too.See? "Less" evens COSTS less!--lol!  I didn't offer a download on the other song because it is not a "final version". But if you STILL can't get to it at myspace for some reason, let me know and i could e-mail it to you if you so request. Let me know what ya think.

      Got a few things coming up the next 2 weeks: The 80's group Foreigner is playing in town sunday, so i may go see that. We have the Italian festival coming up next week and they have a band called "Bandana" that i really like. The singer is a former member of the 60's group, "Sam The Sham and the Pharaohs". They are the ones who had the hits, "Lil Red Riding Hood" and "Wooly Bully".....also we got Valentines Day coming up and will be doing a dinner there with my beautiful wife. And then her birthday is 6 days after that and we'll be doing an all weekend celebration, singing out on friday, and family b-day party and dinner the next night and the Italian Fest. Oh, and the Medieval Faire is in town too, so that is a good possibilty too! Whew!!

     I was hoping to get to one of Bud's gigs too but not sure, if all that is going on. Oh and how could i forget? I'm going to have a crown put on at the dentist the friday after my wife's b-day! Fun, fun, fun!

        So a busy schedule is on the way which will hopefully give me alot to write about! Hope you all are doing ok and i am still popping in on everybody's blogs......i haven't tagged much lately but i AM reading!!......Message to darkangel: where have you been lately?...i no longer get notices when you update....i must go over now to see how we can fix that...lol.....Take care everyone! And let me know what you think of the tunes so far!
