Howie Day Blog Update!
hi there
Current mood: 
optimistic
Category: Sports
I got to play at Fenway Park. I dwelled the very corridors that so many greats have ... dwelled. Some of my family came, too bad it rained like a bastard... We made the best of it. Mike O'Malley came and introduced himself to me, really nice guy... It took me a minute. Nick. GUTS!
Who knows how much longer that place will be there? I secretly hope it becomes some sort of Coliseum that stands forever. This was definitely an experience I can tell my grandkids about, and they won't give a shit, but whatever, I'll be old, and psyched for my long lost youth.
Welcome to my blog. I hate the word blog. It reminds me of the word blubber, which reminds me of whales, which reminds me of Bar Harbor, which reminds me of hippies, which reminds me of blogs... it's the circle of life. The Lion King is pretty cool, though.
I'll try and write in this thing if you guys think it's worthwhile. I'm new to this stuff. I'm actually on a Macintosh LC.
so much love,

Howie's Sentancing.
The attorney for Howie Day said the popstar was
mourning the suicide of his younger brother and
trying to make a last-minute radio station gig
when he disrupted a Boston-bound flight and
wound up in jail last Christmas.
Day, 25, got sentenced in East Boston District
Court yesterday to a year’s pretrial probation
after a plea agreement with the Suffolk County
D.A.’s office. As a condition of his release,
Day must continue to receive alcohol
counseling and apologize to the crew and
passengers onboard the American Airlines flight.
“This is a kid from Maine who was going through a tough time,” Day’s attorney Paul Kelly told the Track. “But if he had really done all the stuff they said he did they never would have agreed to pretrial probation.”
Kelly said Day had been having issues at the time of the incident because his younger brother had committed suicide several months beforehand.
“He was having trouble dealing with it and he started to do some drinking,” Kelly said.
