You see me
You look through me
You hear me
Can you hear me?
Ah-ee--oh...

You’re blinded by your reflection
I’m invisible in the shadow of your glow

I absorb you
I deflect you
I’m a scientific wonder
My surface is cool
My paint is dark
A massive anomaly
A singularity
A Nobel prize in disguise
Well I’m in disguise

You’ve got the angle
You could be near or far

You bend the light
You bent the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bent the light
You bend the light
You bent the light
You bend the light
You bend the light

I wait for you, you walk by me
I'm a meta material new spectrum
No, infrared
I'm headed to the blue hall
A Nobel prize in disguise
I'm gonna be famous
Famous, famous, famous

You got the angle
You could be near or far
On any wavelength
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
And I'm gonna be famous
You bend the light
You bend the light
And I'm gonna be famous
You bend the light
And I'm gonna be famous
You bend the light
You bend the light

Wo-Wo-Yeah
Wo Wo Wo Wow

Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Nee Nee Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na

I'm gonna be famous
You bend the la-la-la light
And I'm gonna be famous

You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
You bend the light
I'm gonna be famous
You bend the light
Oh Wo Yeah
Oh Yeah
Wo Oh Wow
You bend the light
But I'm gonna be fame, fame, famous
You bend the light

Greetings my SC friends. It’s been a strange few months, and I am excited to be back. But I have a feeling it’s not going to look like it did… at least for the near future. I’m having a hard time organizing my thoughts lately. And while the musical energy is flowing better than ever, my ability to write satisfying liner notes is feeling a little clogged (this will be my 6th attempt at this write-up). 

As much as I regret it, the write-ups may need to stay on hold for a while longer. But first, I wanted to share what happened (in the form of a write-up. Lol). 

For starters, it’s important to mention I’ve been an alcoholic since I was 15 (a 40 year relationship). And although I genuinely loved what a nice beer buzz did for my noisy mind, I also knew what toxic alcoholism looked like (from many examples in my extended family). So I knew I had my work cut out for me, if I wanted to overcome my genetic dependancy. 

Granted, I also have a ‘responsibility’ vein that runs deep. I did my best to prioritize my family and responsibilities first (‘don’t drink til 5:00. Don’t drink if ya have to drive’ kinda stuff), and I considered myself a ‘functioning alcoholic’. Truthfully, I was never ashamed of my drinking. As a teenager, the ability to not give a shit that I found in a beer buzz honestly saved my life. And it allowed me to unplug from the noise for many decades after that.

But I wanted to do better than that, so I started making changes quite a while ago. Here’s a brief summary of how that unfolded:

1. Back in 2006 I concluded my negative headspace was the root of the problem (perspective is huge); so I altered my daily routines, knowing it would take years to undo the lifetime of programming that caused that thinking in the first place. I started consuming info that was positive and hopeful and loving (and avoided negative info like my life depended on it… which it did). And I did that intensively for the next 15 years.

2. But by January of 2023, I realized the beer buzz no longer quieted the noise and ugliness happening in the world (it all went too chaotic too fast). So if the crutch wasn't helpful, it needed to go. That’s when I tried Tai Chi (to give my mind something else to focus on). And it worked brilliantly.

3. Over the next 6 months, thanks to the calmer headspace created by Tai Chi, I cut my drinking tremendously (and for perspective, we’re talking 9-18 Natties daily… down to 3-6 Natties daily). The surprise outcome… the fog in my mind was clearing for the first time, and I was not prepared for sober adult Justin (man is my brain chattery when left to it’s own devices). So at the beginning of August 2023, I decided to take my Social Media break. That was more timely than I could have imagined, because…

4. On August 26th I was given the gift of Pancreatitis (the disease that lets you know ‘Wow, Dude. You drink way too much’). I went to the Emergency room with terrible intestinal pain, and I ended up in the hospital for 5 days. Long story short, I left the hospital sober, and have been that way ever since. And I’m genuinely happy about that… because thankfully, I did a great job preparing for that day.

So in a nutshell... I am back. But the writings may have to wait a while longer (at least until I figure out how my new clearer headspace works). Interestingly, I managed to produce almost an entire album of new music over my break, so I'll put those new songs up on SC over the coming weeks. 

And since I’m just a few songs short of completion, I’ll be releasing a very personal album (symbolizing my adventures with sobriety) very soon. It’s called ‘What Color Is Your Paradox?’, and I hope to have it on Bandcamp in February.

In the meantime, I’m happy to be back. And I look forward to seeing what all of you have been up to over the last few months. :)

 Big hugs from your blatantly open-book friend.

Lyrics (Dave Orestes):

What is rich? You're asking me
Rich is so simple, don't you see
It's not what you own but what you do and say
.
What is rich? You're asking me
It's not hard to explain
It's all about what you feel
And not what you touch
Every day
.
Rich is how well you sleep at night and
your thoughts on your own death bed
when you have few regrets
few regrets
.
Rich is passing on
the prospect of hope
so that all have a chance
to prosper and grow
Rich is not how tall 
Your sky scrapers grow
no no no no
.
Or the number of seats
in your stadium row 
It's not how many toys
in the attic you've stowed 
oh no no
that's not it
.
What is rich? You're asking me
Oh it's not hard to explain
It's all about what you feel
Not what you touch every day 
.
Rich is when
All the children are fed
And each of them has 
A warm safe bed
Rich is how 
You care for people 
That, you've never met
.
It's not hard to explain 
It's all about what you feel 
And not what you touch
Every day
.
Doo da doo da doo
Laa la laa la laa
Laa la laa la laa
Laa la laa
La laa la la
.

What Is Rich (with Dave Orestes, 2024)

Played with Bandolin Otavaleño (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandolin)

Otavaleña

Prendan candelas, se van oscureciendo ciudadelas
todos atentos se dan por desterrados los tormentos.
Adelante hay una fuerza vibrante, que te eleva, vamos queriendo avanzar.

Suban las velas, vamos que se viene la marea.
cambian los vientos, de a poco van llegando los despiertos.
Adelante hay una fuerza constante que te eleva, vamos queriendo avanzar.

Tomar las riendas, y no hay una manera de que entiendan.
De que algo pasa, que  todo esta cambiando en nuestra casa.
Adelante hay una fuerza brillante  que te eleva, vamos queriendo avanzar.

Light the candles, villages are getting dark
Everybody, attention, as all pain will disappear
Go ahead there is a lively force, that elevates you,
We want to go forward.

Raise the sails, let's go that the tide is coming
Winds are changing, awakened people are gradually arriving,
Go ahead there is a constant force, that elevates you,
We want to go forward.

Get on top of things, and there is no way they understand.
That something is happening, that everything is changing  at home
Go ahead there is a bright force that elevates you
We want to go forward.
