Why can't meeting new people be like surfing blogs? I think that would be so much easier! Above their heads is a little button that says "Next Person" you can press when you realize they aren't for you. When I was in high school, I used to take people not wanting to hang around me personally. Obviously, that is a legitimate concern, as sometimes it is personal. But other times, I'm learning as I grow up, you just don't have the same interests, and that's it. In high school, I'd think 'What did I say wrong? How could I have done this better? Why don't they want to hang out with me?' When in reality, they probably weren't into Backstreet Boys and Colorguard and hence, we didn't have much to talk about.

I keep listening, though, and I realize his slightly off-key vocals that fit a bit awkwardly with the music have a certain endearing quality that grows on me.
The Florida native who has been playing with a friend for more than the past decade and for a few years with another group, Jethro’s Giant Brain, has gone solo on this project and regales us with his emotional lyrics and guitar alone.
