Kevin Mileski: Journal

Well, I'll tell ya, friends. It's been a rough ride here in Colorado. I don't know what to think of the music scene here. I've seen some truly amazing artists out here who seem to be struggling quite a bit; but that doesn't mean anything. Perhaps there's something I don't know about that I should.

The other day, we had our first snowfall here and it was absolutely beautiful. You see, I live on what's called the "front range" which means we get the foothills of the biggin's . During the summer, it looks a lot like...Nevada; but the winter really makes it truly a spectacle here. I love that part of it here.

For right now, I'm working. I've written a few new songs that I'm really excited to play for the Chicago crowd on October 7th. Can't wait.

See you then!

Hey, friends. Wow, it's been a long time since I added to this journal. Lately, it's been pretty tough getting music rolling in Colorado. Turns out it's not the scene I thought it should be. Of course, I'm generalizing about Colorado when I should be just including right where I live. Brittany and I live at 7200 feet and love it. There are photos of the view from our front porch on the photos page. Yup, I finally posted new stuff on this new site. It's so much easier for me. I have to get the link to Tricia Muelbauher's site. She's the photographer who took the pro shots. All the ones that look weird are mine. So, I'm looking forward to another show at Lamplighters in Palatine on October 7th. Mark it in your calendars!! Okay, well, that's about it for now.

Now that it's so much easier for me to write in the Journal, I think I'll probably do it a lot more often.

Until next time!

Holy shit. No seriously, holy crap. I live about 15 miles up the mountain from my place of work right now and it took me over an hour to get home!!

So, Dear Colorado, please understand that we all have a morbid curiosity that pulls at our gas pedals to see what happened to the person with three police cars and an ambulance around their car. The truth is, Colorado, it's not necessary to stop! You can take a quick glance, make your assumptions of what happened and discuss it with the hitchiker you just picked up. Also, the windshield wipers in your car DO turn on without the assistance of your brake pedal. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Kevin

So, I can't complain anymore. In the last two days, I've been contacted by many people regarding my music and it's been wonderful. I've had a HUGE great review from the Independent Artists Registry -- an elite group of musicians who are chosen on many different merits. More to come on that later. For now, I hope you enjoy the new site as it's making me happy
