I spent 18 days on the road with my friends in Cerce doing this. If you don’t know what I do, or you haven’t seen me do what I do in a while, or you just want to check out a show you didn’t get to see, please watch this video.

I won’t get a “sweet book deal” as a result. I’m probably not going to get an email from one of the hype record labels, offering me a record deal as a result. Watching, or even reblogging this ain’t gonna make either of us TumblrFamous. Probably in the grand scheme of things, not too many people with the power to “make shit happen” in this universe will even care…but it’d mean a lot to me. Thanks for watching!

Oh, these were good times…my friends in DEADHORSE may be taking a bit of an unplanned break over the summer, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy what was already created!

drowninginadigitalsea:

and I’m still in awe. With new acquaintances, I went to the Democracy Center-a nondescript house in Cambridge. Walking up the crumbling brick stairs to the door, I had second thoughts, thinking I went to the wrong address. It wasn’t until the door was answered by a familiar face that I knew I was…

Stumbled upon this beautifully written and highly flattering review of our tour kickoff show in Cambridge a while back. These stories are why I do what I do.

"BUSTED FUTURES/GENTLE DREAMS" REVIEW//HEX RECORDS

Ryan from Hex Records recently reviewed my BUSTED FUTURES/GENTLE DREAMS chapbook! He also had some good things to say about the Cerce demo, and as a cherry-on-top sorta deal, even managed to describe a live William James show as exactly what I’ve always tried to be! 

when you see him do this live it’s pretty much like seeing a hardcore band, minus everyone but the vocalist.


Go on and check it out at http://www.hanginghex.blogspot.com/ - and support good people doing good things! Thanks, HEXX!!

bootyaficionado asked: Love your work man! Caught your set yesterday in Hooksett, NH, and was very impressed. Truthfully, I'm not the biggest poetry fan, but what you write stands out a lot. It really just shows that you're not afraid to speak your mind, and go against today's shitty standard of "normal". Bummed I couldn't grab any merch off you, but I threw a couple bucks towards helping you and Cerce get back home, and I definitely plan on picking up a shirt sometime soon!

Thanks so much for the kind words! Truthfully, there’s an awful lot of good poetry out there that does what I do, but even better! I’m home safe and sound, either way, and I definitely appreciate your support. Take care!

So, you’re always right, and I’m always wrong. I’ll be sure to give a fuck as soon as I get out of this car.

binge-thinker asked: Thanks for the follow back! Dave Rose brought me along to see you and Cerce in Philly a few nights ago, you were truly moving. If you have any more dates in Philly this summer or around DC in the fall, I'll definitely try to be there!

A return to both cities will happen. Sooner, rather than later, I hope. Thanks for the support!

drowninginadigitalsea asked: I saw you perform at the Democracy Center at the start of your tour, and I would have last night as well but unfortunately, I had to leave the show a bit earlier than expected. Just wanted to send you some love- I was incredibly moved at your first show. You're a true inspiration and I hope I'll be fortunate enough to see you perform again!

DC was a great time!! I had a blast, and I definitely plan to come back to Boston ASAP. Thanks for the support!
