I’m thrilled to report that “All I Want From Santa” the Dec 5th Wednesday’s Song is featured on the CD Baby Podcast episode 19. That’s where I first heard Jonathan Coulton talking about his Thing A Week. Feels great. The internet way of communicating really does work. I haven’t had the big traffic here yet but my name is on the same podcast as my newest hero Jonathan. I’ll put a lid on it for now cause I’ve started to gush. Shucks.
I’ve added a link in my blogroll to Thing A Week. That’s Jonathan Coulton’s blog and website. He’s the guy who inspired me to start this project. Give him a click if you’ve got a minute. He gets a lot of clicks already, but that’s because he’s talented and smart.
I’ve been getting busy with work lately, so that’s a good thing. I’m playing bass in a play this weekend. And I’m arranging some tunes for a session on Monday that will includes legendary bassist Abe Laborial. I’ll meet him at the session. It’s pretty exciting for an old muso like myself.
Looked at a few more possible locations for the studio. Kind of depressing because I like my current place so much. I’ve sent in a proposal to a realtor for me to rent my current space plus some more to be available to sublet. We’ll see what the mgmt co says. Not a musical way to spend one’s time.
Me 228 Goal 226 I’m not doin’ so good. This week I’m gonna lose for sure.
Boy do I love Coke Zero. All the caffeine and no calories. Diet Coke sucks. Don’t know the difference except that I like CZ! That’s a free endorsements.
Jonathan Coultan, who inspired this whole WS project seems to be a stand up guy. We’ve traded a couple of emails and he’s supportive and friendly. I encourage everyone to go to his site and buy some of his very clever songs.
Moved the site from blogger. Hoping to be offering downloads – that’s the reason for the change. Following in the footsteps of Jonathan Coulton. He’s surely inspired more than just me to post weekly songs. Love to hear about others.
Already have next week’s drum track. No idea about the music or song to go on top of it. Totally fun to wing it.Want to be bright and cheery like Cheap Trick, but the track is moody like Joy Division.
