Life Is A Highway - a drummer's POV

Jay blogs kSparq and [ k-Blog ] tells you!

With momentum building for Jay Speight's new single "Ala-Freakin-Bama," the buzz continues with one of my latest YouTube videos (seen on a previous blog post on [ k-Blog ]). Jay mentions my "behind the scenes" video on his MySpace Blog:

This video was shot during the "Ala-Freakin-Bama" video shoot in Huntsville a few weeks ago. The official music video is now live and playing on Jay's MySpace and YouTube pages. [ k-Blog ] wants you to visit his pages to see the video - so go now!

In the mean time, please log on to alafreakinbama.com and support Jay by first purchasing the song "Ala-Freakin-Bama" for your very own and while you're there, pick up some freakin' t-shirts! C'mon, ya'll - you know you want one!

Atlanta road trip - pics

In support of Jay Speight's new song "Ala-Freakin-Bama," we took a road trip to Atlanta where Tide fans witnessed a Clemson Tiger beatdown...and two amazing concerts by Jay Speight and Band at the Hard Rock Cafe! Here's a few pics - videos to come very soon!

Ala-Freakin-Bama!

Before I really get into this [ k-Blog ] post I have to get a few things off of my chest: 1) mentally, when I started [ k-Blog ] I didn't want it to become something that I would start strong and then let fizzle (much like my working out!). I feel that I have already done this, so, here's a new [ k-Blog ] post! 2) speaking of working out - after writing a book-of-a-blog-post last week about exercising I have to admit that I haven't been faithful. I have played a little basketball and went jogging once - but it has yet to become a daily routine (sigh) 3) I'm NO LONGER selling my car, nor am I moving back to Nashville... Welcome back to [ k-Blog ]!

"Ala-Freakin-Bama"

Jay Speight and I have been friends for quite some time now. I've been able to see him grow both as a musician and a songwriter. Jay has always been super talented and he just keeps getting better and better. Every once in a while however a great artist will tend to sell out, write something for intentional mass appeal, a no holds barred sacrifice of meticulous attention to originality and Jay has created such a thing...and I FREAKIN LOVE IT!!! Check out a short video I took from my Palm Treo of some behind the scenes footage from the "Ala-Freakin-Bama" video shoot in Hunstville (my Treo has been dropped several times now...audio quality is not the best):

Please check out Jay's current website and buy some official Ala-Freakin-Bama T-Shirts! It's a great song that is about to take the Southeast (and soon the nation!) by storm. We'll be shooting more footage this Friday night at the Hard Rock Cafe in Atlanta, GA as we'll be rockin' "Ala-Freakin-Bama" with several hundred crazed Roll Tide fans who are coming off a less-than stellar basketball season, no College World Series appearance, and should we even mention the 7-6 football season under Coach Nick Saban last year? These people are going to be foaming at the mouth as they are getting geared up (and liquored up...a day early, mind you) for a chance to knock off a Clemson team who is favored to win their division in the ACC. It's gonna get rowdy! :-)
