I am a "Life Artist". I create music, art, theatre, drama, and comedy in my daily existence. I consider myself to be one of the luckiest people on this planet! My dreams come to fruition regularly. There is a certain freedom in my basic anonymity yet I am known by many. I currently live with my wife and partner, Donna, on an island in the middle of nowhere in a country few even think about.
Three nights after Christmas
A true story… Three nights after Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring we already caught the mouse The dog was on the porch on his mat of a bed as visions of hunting frogs danced in his head Ma doesn’t wear a kerchief I don’t wear a cap but we…
Living with the Wildlife
Our house is a very open house, very basic but comfy in this jungle climate. The ceiling is open all the way to the roof tiles and the windows (no screens) and doors are generally open creating a very, well, open atmosphere. We’ve had visitors of all sorts. Wildlife; frogs, butterflies, geckos, skinks, and several…
Paris, Trip to the Louvre
Can you imagine? We lived in France for over 5 years visiting Paris many times and never went to the Louvre. I know that’s ridiculous but we were always living on the edge financially. So, now that we are on our “Lance & Donna Europe 2018 Friends Tour” we thought we probably ought to take…
’til the Cows go home
People may wonder what we do all day. My response is pretty much always, “Living the good life!” and it’s true. We do what we want, when we want. It’s the night time that is problematic, at least during this part of the season. Cows. Cows are the problem. During the rainy/growing season the cows…

Closer to home still we had one night in Pakse. We checked into the room and took our excess baggage to the travel company. Then…
Donna’s 1st Knee Replacement
Prelude: Nov 28, 2016, 5:13 PM This is crazy! Donna went through dental surgery yesterday without a hitch. This morning as we are out walking, she trips as we are crossing the street and actually falls face first, sliding on the pavement. She’s got a big fat split lip, sore front teeth, a skinned up…
4 Day Tour with my Son & the Zac Brown Band

One Night in Birmingham
In the late 70’s I got a job with S.I.R. (Studio Instrument Rentals) in Nashville. My main job was to cart drums that we stored for some of the best drummers in Nashville to their studio gigs ahead of time and set them up. I had to learn exactly how these drummers liked their setup…
