Creative-Life-Support: The Organic Harvest of Rusted Root - A Documentary Movie
 
Working with film maker and Emmy Award winning Hollywood executive, Evan Edelist, is one of the most meaningful and, yet, fun experiences of my thirty some odd years.
 
Though, until now, I never realized how much hard work, vision, planning, making things happen without planning and relying some on luck and spontaneity, friendship, business savvy, technology, finances, commitment and dedication goes into movie making.
 
As much as I am waiting for this documentary movie to be completed so I can watch it and share it with others in and out of the scene and around the world, I keep telling my self to enjoy this moment like a fine glass of Caymus Special Select (at like $220.00 a bottle) and, moreover, that "it's the journey and not the destination."
 
At any rate, I'm looking forward to Evan Edelist coming back to Pittsburgh in early June to work with Liz Berlin, Mike Speranzo and me at Mr. Small's Studios www.mrsmalls.com on our documentary film project and also doing our Copper River King Salmon Fest and catching the Dodgers play the Pirates at PNC Park w/ Evan -
 
And, then, in July, I look forward to heading out West and working with Evan Edelist on our documentary film in his Hollywood studio and the two of us traveling with Rusted Root www.RustedRoot.com for a few West Coast shows ---
 
All the while savoring the time and remembering it's the journey and not the destination.
 
I'm not going to worry too much about the work and how it's gonna be viewd and received and when it's going to be completed and released.
 
However, given that, I must say, when this documentary film is complete it is going to kick-ass and be a meaningful story that gets you off.
 
Best of the Roses,
