In 11 days My whole life changed (Open Mic log "They Call Me Holmes") with performance video links
22 Dec 2016
The last two open mics were weak. The kind of performances where people laugh at you for sucking while they think they fooling you by cheering. I put everything in it. Or do I? I left school at around 1:30 to take that ride down that Haunted Highway 49. I call it that for a few reasons. I'll explain "The Haunted Highway" later. I been having this feeling for days. Maybe it's a feeling brought on by my father's death. The feeling that love is coming my way. I feel it so strong, like some sort of psychic thang. It is gripping me like those moments in life when everything makes sense.
23-25 Dec 2016
Came down and I actually went out on a date on the 23. On Christmas day I went to New Wallens (New Orleans). Really want to see her again. When I was with that girl, I felt like I was so close to things I haven't felt in years-but that's nonsense. Or could it be fate in my favor. The host is Jim Smith, awesome dude. The place is Igor's Checkpoint Charlies. Wore my three piece suit. Found myself. Yea, I found myself indeed. I was pretending I was serenading my date from two nights ago. Majick happened, this girl came up on stage and kissed me. Click here to see Lucky kiss Maybe my luck is changing. At that moment, I learned that I must talk to my audience by saying things everyone can relate to.
When I i inserted, "Baby I can make you be again be free again believe again I'm the Joker You can be my Harley Quinn," into a song from a song I wrote in 2009-"I CAN LOVE YA," Click here to see "I Can Love Ya" video thus came an idea. I'll do a song titled "Harley Quin." Harley Quinn is the Joker's romance in DC comics.

Debuted "Harley Quin" at the openmic at the Julep Room in Ocean Springs. While I was playing four chicks walked in. They left when I finished. The talking to audience thing worked. click here to see "Harley Quin"
29 Dec 2016
I did an open mic at The Grocery in Ocean Springs. Once again I brought more people in when I started talking to them. That felt good. Still I was haunted-what if that girl on the date was meant for me? Allowed it to haunt me so much that I had to defend myself by creating another song, in my head titled "Fell In Love On Christmass Day Broken Hearted By New Years Day," while I performed Met new friends who dug Click here to see Grocery Store Jam "White Trash Testimony"-that's what I call my style.

I returned to New Orleans Check Point Charlies, seeing to the audience again. I put new stanza's in "Everything Falls Like Rain." Lines were " Well I fell in love on a Christmas Day broken hearted by a New Years Day...Click here to see New Years day jam at New OrleansGot all this love in my heart and no one to kiss surely I ain't the only one to feel like this. My baby got more issues than magazine subscription she got me howling like a hound dog for attention." While performing a few people came in the bar. A girl gave me a five dollar tip.
Woman, if I never see you again, and/or if you ever see this, I thank you for helping me to realize that I am attractive and can join the human race again.
