The Blue Album

Last week I got the idea to record a blues jam with as many people as possible. Given the short time frame, I was only able to round up the usual suspects, with the exception of Jesse Hummel, who makes his drumming debut.

I haven't yet decided whether these jams will be available to the public. If they are, it will be as digital downloads only. The artwork, crafted carefully by Pablo and ruthlessly manhandled by yours truly, would also be downloadable if we go that route. Should I decide to make these musical gems available to everyone, you may be able to get your hands on a printed version. The price is profuse and heartfelt begging, as well as a financial contribution. The other loophole is that you would have had to have given birth to me.

Lots of work ahead in these next couple of weeks recording and mixing. Better get to it...

Art as near death experience

I got the following email this morning from a dear friend of mine and fellow shredder. It's funny, but only cuz he survived!   :)

"So, I got your CD in the mail, and thought I'd listen to it in the car while going to the train one day last week. I was listening to the first track Fuggah Wgga Mah and it made me go right through a stop sign at 100km/hr. I kid you not. I'm lucky I'm not DEAD.

Anyway, really good work. I've spun it a couple of times, and its very enjoyable."

Does this mean I have to come up with a "Do not operate fast moving heavy machinery while listening" warning label?   :)

Garth Tribute Date

This Saturday, May the 13th, the Garth Tribute will be playing at Club Denim (I think it's now called Cowboys something or other). While none of us are 'cowboys' in any sense of the word (except maybe Elton), this is one of the few opportunities I've had to play with this band this close to home. Directions and venue details for Club Denim can be found here.

Be forewarned that if you show up, I may be putting you temporarily to work (from the comfort of your chosen table or whatever) taking a few pictures of us (and by us I mean me) while we perform. :)

Back by popular demand

Due to an unrelenting demand from my public, I've decided to re-open a blog! Most of this will centre around my music career but I'm sure some other funnies will pop up every now again.

See you next time.
