Fine Lines: The Jay Mathes Blog: We're Buying a House!
http://jaymathes.blogspot.com/2014/04/were-buying-house.html
Monday, April 28, 2014. We're Buying a House! My wife and I are buying our first house. Today began the five-day attorney review period. We are excited, feeling blessed, but also quite stressed out. We love our children. Each day we feel inadequate to parent them. They deserve better. We trust and pray. We trust and pray. That our presence in the community will be a shining witness of God's grace in our lives and that through us, the Holy Spirit would work miracles in our midst, building meaningful relat...

Fine Lines: The Jay Mathes Blog: Three Concerts You Should Go To
http://jaymathes.blogspot.com/2014/08/three-concerts-you-should-go-to.html
Monday, August 25, 2014. Three Concerts You Should Go To. Over the next three months, there are three concerts I think you should go to—if you live near Chicago. Here you go:. 1 Switchfoot with Gungor. 9/19 at Olivet Nazarene University. 2 John Mark McMillan. 9/21 at First Presbyterian Church of Glen Ellyn. 3 Josh Garrels with Will Reagan. 10/25 at Wheaton College. Really unique voice. A groove that hits that sweet spot. I have a lot of respect for a guy who gives away so much of his music for th...Big p...

Fine Lines: The Jay Mathes Blog: August 2013
http://jaymathes.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 14, 2013. Review: John Mayers Paradise Valley. People have been hating on Mayer in recent months. Including me. But let's take a step back and think about what we are really doing when we criticize his work: we are assessing it based on what he has already released and what we've come to expect and like—a poppy, rock sound with good hooks, but most importantly, solid lyrics from the heart. Nothing too witty, just true. Musically, Paradise Valley. For free this week on iTunes:. I'm in a ...

Fine Lines: The Jay Mathes Blog: December 2012
http://jaymathes.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 7, 2012. Tubes, Family, and Christmas. I do hope you've been having a wonderful time in between two of my favorite holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas, obviously). It's been a busy time for me and my family, and I see no signs of a slow-down any time soon - even over school break. What happened last week:. Eleanor, my 15-month-old, got tubes put in her ears. If you're not familiar with the procedure, it's fairly simple, but for a *musician* dad, it's intense. Read about it HERE. Album o...

Fine Lines: The Jay Mathes Blog: ...On Moonlighting
http://jaymathes.blogspot.com/2014/05/on-moonlighting.html
Tuesday, May 27, 2014. Tonight, I'm moonlighting. Y'all know what that is, right? Here's how I like to describe it:. Moonlighting is doing what you love after those whom you love are fast asleep. Follow me on Twitter for more profound one-liners such as this :) - - HERE. Moonlighting is honestly one of the hardest ways I can think of to sustain or develop a career or business. Bravo to everyone who is in it, into it, does it, and works hard at the work he or she really, really wants. You rock.

Fine Lines: The Jay Mathes Blog: October 2014
http://jaymathes.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 23, 2014. In short, read my latest posts on Tumblr. Over the past few days, I've been exploring Tumblr as a possible replacement option for Blogger. The reason is simple: traffic. But it's more complicated than that. The number one reason to switch is that more people will see what I write; and after all, that's why we all write, right? Tumblr has a better built-in system for organic searches and finding new or related posts. So there you have it. Http:/ jaymathes.tumblr.com.
