Gig #95 – Welcome to 2016

Woot, 2 weeks into the new year and I’ve got a show. Pretty psyched as this week’s Barlai Open Mic has been fully reserved (opposed to the one on Xmas eve where it was just a 2-man show haha).

Today – this photograph popped up on my Facebook feed, and I was surprised at the date: 6 years ago. I looked up my old blog post for my first ever performance and realized that it has been 9 years since I started performing as 2storeyheart :O Damn, how time flies! In my mind, I keep thinking that I’ve only been doing it for 3 years…

Well, there’s really not much to say except that I’m an old fart in this ‘scene’ and I’m looking forward to this week’s gig. Hope to see some old and new faces – it should be a blast!

Ray Peterson – Tell Laura I Love Her

In today’s installment of ‘Songs you didn’t know were sad’, we have the famous song from the 60s – Tell Laura I Love Her. If any of you were like me and never paid attention to the song when you first heard it, you probably brushed it off as just another a cheesy love song. I can’t remember when it was when I paid attention to the words Ray Peterson was singing but when I did I realized how sad and depressing it was.
