Jono and Ashley
Ashley Tries to Figure Out How to Ride Jono’s Scooter in Her Wedding Dress

To follow my roast from last week, here is “Toast,” a song I wrote as I woke up the morning after Jono and Ashley got married, chuckling at the image of them riding off, top speed, on Jono’s scooter, into the night and through a red light.

It was my honor to be a reader at their wedding. I read 1 Corinthian’s 13, the verse about “Love is patient, love is kind…the greatest of all is love.” My cover this week is one of my favorite songwriter’s take on what love is.

I’ve been playing a song my buddy Jono wrote, called “God Has Been Good To Me,” for a while now. So when he got married just before Christmas, we threw him a roast, and I wrote some alternate lyrics for the occasion. First you’ll hear my version of “God Has Been Good To Me,” then you’ll hear my roast/tribute to Jono called “Being Odd Has Been Good To Me.” I overdubbed a guitar solo with delay on the first; you can hear the dog whining and birds singing in the second.

I’ve started posting stuff from the roast, starting with Chris’s slideshow of Jono’s life in pictures at my personal blog, EverydayJ.com.

jcast1: Songs From The Porches of Port A and A-Town

Here’s my first podcast, or jCast as I like to call it, fresh from the porch. The first song, “And Townes Said,” comes from the porch of a beach house off the Texas coast at Port Aransas, enhanced by the sounds of the power tools being used to build a house next door. I recorded the second song, Jackson Browne’s “Rock Me On The Water,” back on my porch in Austin. Doug graciously provided the smooth background groove.
