I'm Going To Miss The 2015 Ford Mustang Introduction Because I Made This Def Leppard Video
Today has not gone as planned. Sometime late last night, my water heater blew a seam, soaking my basement and damaging guitar cases, but not damaging any guitars. I spent today arranging for it to be replaced. Tomorrow I'm flying to Los Angeles to write a thing for Road&Track that some of you are really going to like, I hope. I was planning to drive to Detroit at 4AM so I could see the introduction of the Mustang, then drive home, then drive to the airport, but I lost the seven hours it would take to do that getting the new water heater installed. Well, that and making this very regrettable video.
Today is my friend Melisa's birthday. She's had a tough month --- somebody pulled out in front of her and her car was totaled and she was hurt a little bit. In her honor, Patrick and I did a song for her. I flubbed the solo, even though I know it, but we couldn't redo it because I lost my voice. These things happen. Happy Birthday, Melisa. You're a great writer with a lot of great stories left in you, and I remain a fan.
