The phrase “attention getting device” is a term I’ve heard many, many times over the years. Mostly in parent/teacher conferences while growing up. My #1 attention getting device was always noisemaking, be it beat-boxing or otherwise. What it all boils down to, of course, is “look at me”.

Get Over It is the first of five songs written for my Entourage, in this case it’s George Ellenburg. Quoth the entourage member himself:
…my favorite phrase in life (my mantra) is “build a bridge and get over it” so something centered around that…It’s my response to a lot of things (and people). Something not going your way? Build a bridge and get over it. Having a bad day? Build a bridge and get over it.
Life’s too damn short. Build a bridge and get over it! It combats jealousy, egos, and politicians all at the same time.
As I was writing this one, I remembered a quote from the album Has Been by William Shatner… “Has Been implies failure, lots of it.” The implication being that he’s failed a lot in his life. And yet I don’t have to explain who he is because he’s succeeded a hell of a lot more than he’s failed. Success means not being afraid to fall, it means being ready to find other pathways around or over your problems.

This concert was a bit shorter than most (typically I like to do a 90-minute set or 2 hourlong sets), but it was still awesome. Yes, there was awesome in New Jersey. Believe it! I drove out to play for the local Social Media gathering at Purple Stripe Productions in Trenton, and I hope it won’t be the last time I’m there!
