bags galore!

In 2 weeks from friday my band The Diamond Center is leaving on a 2 week tour of the East Coast and Midwest... wooo hoooo! 

Trying to think of things that we can sell on the road to generate more cash-flow for the ever-rising gas prices, I came up with the idea to make Diamond Center tote bags! Its been a blast re-connecting with the sewing machine (the last time I used it was when I was in 4-H as a youngster) AND not to mention designing the bags. I decided to use found fabric, so the bags are 99% reclaimed and recycled! (the thread is new)  I debuted the bags at our CD release show here in Lubbock last week and they were a hit! Hopefully the rest of the country will think the same.

K also has something in the works that he is creating to sell... more on that yummy surprise soon!

To see if The Diamond Center will be hitting your neck-of-the-woods, check out our tour schedule at our rockin' new site over HERE.

this weekend...

i will be here... This is my room at my Mom & Dad's house. I Love my room at my Mom & Dad's house (Cotton does too)... funny thing is, I never had my own room at my parent's house growing up (except on the occasion that my sis would get mad at me and move into my little brother's room... which actually happened often, huh... but she always came back!) BUT now, at almost 30 years old, I have my own room, that I share with none, well, except for Cotton. 
Mom knows that I love green!

These two songs keep rollin' around in my head, and are my JAMS recently... and yes I realize the presence of the reoccurring theme.

Psychotic Girl - The Black Keys

A couple of weeks ago we had a crew of buddies over to help us with some stompin' & clapin' on our new album. This is most of them gathered in our dining room for the session... and yes that is me in the green stripes, respectively.
