Adam’s Journal (Aug 22) - Show in Canada, (really!) early wakeups, laundry, and the Dark Night in IMAX!
Hey Phoenix, how ya’ll doin? I’ve been doing well, staying busy as usual, but
loving it! This past week, Barry my road manager and I flew up to BC Canada to
do a show. It was for Country 107.1 out of Abbotsford BC. I haven’t been up to
Canada in the past 5 months, and I was given such a warm welcome from the fans
at the event. The event itself was a very personal show held in a 300 seater
place, and it was awsome because the place was full!!! I went up on stage
expecting to do a 45 minute set, but ended up doing probably over an hour and a half.. The
audience there was just so welcoming to me that I couldn’t leave, so I just
kept singing, haha.. It actually got to a point where it became a request hour,
and I made many attempts at some of my older songs even though I hadn’t played t hem
in ages, and the audience ate that right up and were singing along to pretty
much every word. You had to have been there!! We were up in Canada for just 2
days, and the day we flew out being Thursday, we had to be ready and in the
Lobby for 5 am… ouch hah, once again not much sleep . I’m home in Nashville
now, and I made a stop at William Morris Agency today, and played for a bunch of
the staff there. They are my new booking agency, and I must say that I am
completely thrilled to be part of that family as well!!.. Other than that, I
got a bunch of laundry done this afternoon, and now I’m gonna go and see the
Dark Night movie for the second time. The only difference is, I’m gonna see it in
the IMAX!! That should be pretty cool! Tomorrow I’ll be taking part in the
Monster Truck Rally here in Nashville, and I’ll be doing an acoustic show
with my friends “The Harters”. The Harters are a new family group, and they are
incredible!! Well that’s all for this week wrapped up in a nut shell
I will
see you all next week in Phoenix at the KMLE Class of ‘08 concert at Graham Central Station. I’m looking forward to meeting you all - the KMLE Nation! Thankyou and God Bless!

Adam, I am so glad I decided to get out of the house last night and see you all play at Grahms, I have wonderful pictures to share. I want to thank you for saying hi to me in your busy entourage of people. My son will cherish your gift, his love for music and guitar amazes me. Thank you for signing my hat. I wish I was not such a quite person, I would have asked you questions, but figured you were tired after such a performance. I wish you well, and you will always have a fan in me. Peace to you and may God bless you path for happiness.
Always,
Jaime Carmichael.

Great show Adam, I am glad I came out and was able to be apart of an awesome milestone. I posted a bunch of pictures on myspace if you have the desire to check them out (like you have much time. Stay in touch! My son thanks you for the guitar pick, says it works great! He was excited to get one from you and from OFS.
