John Corabi: New Material Coming Soon

September 28

John Corabi has posted the following update on his blog:

I'm baaaaaaack!!!!!!! Hopefully I can do this on a regular basis...Sorry its been awhile, but as you know I was on tour this summer with Ratt and Poison. I had a great time, and met alot of new friends, so I thank you all for that!!

I am now sitting in my half painted purple bedroom in Nashville, and I haven't figured out if I'm bored or a little lonely, but I figured I'd write a few words...Its weird, but I have met alot of really cool people here, but it still takes some getting used to moving to a new place...I'm having fun though...My career stuff is going really well too..Be patient with my pace...I WILL finish the book I was telling you all about, and there will be some new material coming soon...

I've realized that I have a tendency to overthink things sometimes, and can't let go of things until they're PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ugh!!!!!!!! But it will be worth the wait. I apologize about the Ratt tour being cancelled, but we will be going to Japan and Australia....or so I've been told....I've got some writing sessions coming up that I'm really excited about, and I've been networking out here to meet new people to hang and work with...Everybody I've met so far seems really nice, and its really refreshing to be exposed to a nicer enviroment...Don't get me wrong, L.A. has some great qualities, but I'm over the traffic, the bustle, and the clicky "beautful" people that just seemed to be so overwhelmingly populating my circles there...DONE...stick a fork in the boy!!!! I have seen some of the sweetest, people get caught up in the "trappings" of that city, and its not very appealing when it happens...I came here and my neighbors made me some pies and cookies to welcome me to the neighborhood....I'm thinking ..."what do you want from me????" I have had complete strangers say..."hey  have a nice day" and I sit there with a bewildered look on my face...WOW what a concept!!!! Actually say hello for no apparent reason....H-m-m-m  I can get into this!!!!

Money is important obviously to survive, but for some reason its not THAT important to fuck over the person sitting next to you, here....???????? You can say whatever you want about southern hospitality, but I kinda dig it!!!! And the people that are succesful here, won't write with you if they think you're an asshole??? So I can just be myself???? I can be polite, and thoughtful, and smile???? I might even find some genuine friends here???? I'm not trying to sound fucked about this, but it just makes me smile to be around hard working people, who enjoy hanging, (professionally and personally) with me just because of who I am, and not because of who or what I was....It really makes it easy to figure out the important things about yourself, and life...The things that really matter.....

1) Have dreams and goals, but don't let them consume you to the point of compromising your integrity!!!!

2) Family and a few great friends are really whats important

3) The person that makes you smile, and the one you can share with, talk to, and count on...That person that loves you unconditionally through thick and thin....

4) Just be honest, and work hard, and you will achieve 1   ON YOUR TERMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5) A large jar of peanut butter and a hungry French poodle....er....did I say that out loud....I'm sorry!!!!!!!!!!!! oops......

Anyway, live life kiddies, be good, think positive, and enjoy!!!!!!
