I'm Sorry and You're Welcome
Current mood: adventurous
I'm currently flying across the country from LAX to NYC to play some promotion gigs with John Mayer and I figured I would write a little blog, since the stewards on this plane frowned upon me running windsprints in the aisles. (On a side note: the spelling of "aisles" looks really jacked up. Were it not for spellcheck, I might still be scratching my head and wondering if I got it right).
I'M SORRY:
I was accepting friend requests just now and I inadvertently hit "deny" instead of "accept". (Between you and I, I think it was because I don't care much for the person sitting next to me and I was envisioning me "denying" him the ability to invade my personal space anymore.) The great irony is the fact that the very ones I want to apologize to will never receive said apology because I gave them the Heisman by accident.
YOU'RE WELCOME: (or......I've Got Shows In Different Area Codes)
Coming to you live and solo:
November 20th New York City Rockwood Music Hall 9:00
Apparently, its a free show so you can't buy tix.
Just show up and be over 21 at the same time. sweet.
November 23 Toronto, ONT The Supermarket 10:45
I know it seems late for a Monday, but that's how we gotta roll. I don't really like the cold, but you don't see me complaining do ya? I'm pretty sure tix are 10.00 and available at the door only. Bring 10.00 and be able to prove you're at least 19 years old. sweet.
December 21 Los Angeles, CA Molly Malones 8pm
I'll be splitting the hour with the incredibly talented Steven McMorran. (which means I have to be ready to BRING IT. He's pretty serious up there) Tix are 10.00 and you gotta be 21. sweet.
December 23 Atlanta, GA Smith's Olde Bar 8pm
It's actually billed "An Intimate Evening-Cabaret Seating" , which I think means we have to kiss and I have to wear a bustier or something. I'll do some research and get back to you. Tix are 20.00 and available here. Limited seats, as I can only kiss so many people with the H1N1 thing going around, you know. 21 and over please. (home) sweet. (home)
Oh. Almost forgot.
A bunch of folks have been asking if I'd be playing with John Mayer on his upcoming tour.
I'll be there. Same side. New gear.
Love is what I've got.
David

Alumni Just Get Better With Age
From the Sixthman Blog:
The Semi-Circle Jerks
The Alumni Crowd
For the past couple of years, Sixthman has always tried to do something special for repeat guests. Usually in the form on an onboard spending credit, but this year we wanted to give everyone something a little more special. After months of discussion, budgeting, and designing, we came up with a universal alumni plan that had longevity and that we thought could eventually span over all of our cruises. We decided to present it to The Rock Boat first to see if they were as excited about it as we were.
Turns out, they sure were.
In this new program, when you are a guest of a certain number of Sixthman events, you earn a prize. Could be a t-shirt, track jacket, or bathrobe in the case of TRB, but we also had something extra special for everyone who had attended more than 3 previous events (that included over 600 people!).
We put a call out to a bunch of our artists asking them to participate in an exclusive alumni show for this group of people. The response was great, and we ended up with a concert jam packed full of talent – Ken and Drew from Sister Hazel, Marc Broussard, Pat McGee, David Ryan Harris, Marc Broussard, Josh Kelley, Aslyn, Dave Yaden, and Oakhurst. (Incredible, right?) The whole group (nicknamed the Semi-Circle Jerks) got together for a couple of short rehearsals to work through some cover tune favorites.
All of the alumni filed in and most sat on the floor. We encouraged floor seats because the show was completely unplugged. And, at this point, no one knew who was playing. After the guests were in, Andy and I introduced the new band, and everyone went nuts. It was the perfect mix for this crowd.
The Semi-Circle Jerks played The Weight, Seven Bridges Road, The Joker medley, and Rock Boat favorite – Drift Away. The whole show gave me such chills. It was a powerful moment to hear the band play completely unplugged and the crowd singing along to every song. Really amazing.
The artists were completely hilarious, ribbing each other and having a lot of fun the entire time. And, if you could picture Marc Broussard with a tight blue shirt, navy blue spandex shorts, a sweatband on his head, skating around the stage on heelies after every song, maybe you could get a better idea of the fun we al had.
We had a couple people record it, and got a little bit of video footage, so when that’s loaded and ready to go, I’ll be sure to post it somewhere. It was too good not to share.
Alumni, thanks for coming back year after year. I hope you know how much we appreciate you. Newbies, now you have something great to look forward to from now on. You know, besides the actual cruise, right?

Too Late to Say Happy '08
Thursday, January 17, 2008
too late to say happy 08
Current mood: adventurous
Category: Life
Even though this is supposed to be the first newsletter of the new year, I am writing it as though it is the last newsletter of the old year. I'll level with you, I'm still cleaning up 2007 and the way I see it, you can't really say that 2007 is over until the trash people make the first pick up of 2008 anyway.
2008 is gonna start with a flurry of activity from the man with three names, so hold on tight because I'm like those storms in the midwest wrapped up in a Muhammad Ali press conference multiplied times Dennis Miller's monologue on cocaine (except you might actually understand more than one of my references unlike the Dennis Miller onslaught):
First, I'm off to the land down under to start work on a record with/for this uber talented guy, Guy Sebastian. I'll be producing and writing and engineering and programming and playing and making coffee. My new year's resolution is to better multi-task, so I'm going at it hard because I'm sure I'll fizzle out sometime in early March.
After Oz, its Rockboat Time.
January 19- 24.
A cruise ship. A bunch of bands. 5 days of music. Meet and Greet. Gambling Lite. Work on a buzz. Get Off Ship. Repeat. Actually, the "repeat" comes later. Don't read ahead, just remember I told you so.
Then, Starring in this month's "Guess Who's Coming To New York City?", it's none other than...................drum roll, please........DRH. Yup, i'll bring my one-man-solo-acoustic-all ages-extravaganza to the Highline Ballroom January 26th at 7:30pm. I'm sure NYC is gonna feel cold after sailing the Carribean, so bring your crew, I'll need body heat.
After that, its "D.R.H. vs S.O.B." on January 27th.
Not down with acronyms?
Not down with O.P.P.?
okay, i'll break it down......David Ryan Harris will bring said solo acoustic extravaganza to Smith's Olde Bar in Atlanta, Georgia on January 27th, 2008 (only this time, it isn't all ages)
Tired yet?
Good, because next we have "David Ryan Harris Eats Ham".
That's right, I'm gonna burn up I-20 West so I can (quiet) storm Birmingham, AL. (and I love switching from 1st to 3rd person like a real crazy person). January 30th. All Ages. Workplay Theater. Birmingham, AL. Be there. Don't Mess This Up. There hasn't been a DRH show in Birmingham since the September when we were still hating on Katrina.
Now repeat step 2, only this time its The MayerCraft Carrier and it only lasts for 4 days. Feb 1-4. I'll play a set with my band (including JJ Johnson, Michael Chaves and Sean Hurley) Plus, for bonus points, I'll play with John Mayer in his band like three times or something. (bonus points=job security). Tickets/Cabins are still available. (http://www.mayercraftcarrier.com)
Now I'm getting a little tired.
Its a good thing that the next step in my flurry of activities is back to the time tested "sit your tired ass in a chair and play solo acoustic guitar again" format, because Feb 4-10 will find me (full of dramamine) aboard Cayamo, A five day floating singer-songwriter-y type cruise thing-y. I'll be there with artists like Lyle Lovett, Emmylou Harris, John Hiatt, Patty Griffin, Shawn Colvin and Brandi Carlile. I think I even get to keep my same cabin from the Mayercraft Carrier!
And guess what?
(what?)
Tickets/Cabins are available for this too! (http://www.cayamo.com)
After that......
I'll probably throw up.
alot.
What a way to start '08, huh?
see you soon.

WHO WAS WHERE WITH WHOM AND WHERE YOU WAS? WHAT? YES.
A blog from Mr. Scotty Crowe:
Photo courtesy of Gari Lamar Askew.
David Ryan Harris and BOOYAH (and more!) returned for Round 2 at Hotel Cafe last night:
All I Need (Al Green interlude, Everything's Not Lost)*
Hold My Fire*
Sweetest Berry**
Yesterday Shutting Down***
Sittin' On Top Of The World***
Pretty Girl (Shining Star, No One, The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, Sexual Healing)*
For You
*band comprised of BOOYAH (Michael Chaves and Sean Hurley) and JJ Johnson, creating BOOYAHWHAT
**band comprised of BOOYAHWHAT and Bob Reynolds, creating BOOYAHWHATDEN
***band comprised of BOOYAHWHATDEN and John Mayer, creating BOOYAHWHATDENAWWWCHYEAH(snap)
all other songs performed solo (yes, for those of you keeping score at home, that's only one of 'em)
What a day. After spending the day prepping for and playing a little private set with BOOYAHWHATDENAWWWCHYEAH(snap)'s other configuration, we rolled to Hollywood for the big Hotel Sauna (or Sauna Cafe or Sauna Sauna, point being it was WARM in that mofo) show. The kids came out like no shoes and were not disappointed.
We got HOLD MY FIRE early in the night, which set up one of the most rockin', deepest groovin' SWEETEST BERRYs I've ever heard. Bob added some sweet sweet saxiness. John jumped up for YESTERDAY SHUTTING DOWN and SITTIN' ON TOP OF THE WORLD (a Howlin' Wolf cover), all the guys trading solos in the latter and all the people soul-clapping in the former. DRH brought back the love to close the set (got to understand he loves the kids). A special night indeed for everyone in the room.
A few visuals to go with that essay, all via my man Gari Lamar Askew (with his Ron Gant-esque swagger)...see you next week...
Don't act like i never toldya.
