I have become a night owl. Getting to bed at 3/4am. Crazy. It's so hard to wind down after shows. I am so "on" when I am singing and playing for 2-3 hours at a time, how can I possibly shut down? Not a robot. I have been reading the book A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle to try to get my mind to slow down a bit which had been helping.

My weekly shows have been awesome. I performed for a benefit presented by Artists for Harmony to raise money for Chicago Public Schools last Friday. The turnout was amazing. I shared the stage with the bands: Danger is My Middle Name, State and Madison and the Urbanites and Lukas From Lift Point. All acoustic, we had a great time. Suite Lounge was completely packed, we had to turn people away because we were at capacity!

Other than that, I have been gathering material to start recording songs...in a new way....more on that later, can't divulge my plans yet! But it'll be fun, exciting and always fresh AND intimate. Internet Intimate. Just takes a lot of work to get all of the pieces of the puzzle in order. Being an Independent Musician Rocks!!! So thankful that I have this forum to bring my music directly to you.

Peace,
Diana
