“I don’t think my fan base [cares] about how many notes I can hit. They want me to sing the doggone song,” she says. “If the song doesn’t dictate adding all this other stuff to it, then why do it?”

Wow. I'm still buzzing from Summer Meltdown, a week later. I love everyone but will be back to my usual self shortly. M.D.X.!!! http://www.summermeltdown.com The snap of the wire wasn’t just the physical breaking of the string, but also the metaphysical breaking of my perception of myself as a pro, for in that instant I knew without a doubt that I did not have extra strings. My pride and preparation crumbled and dropped like a building in a Guatamalan sinkhole. Working on my setlist for Summer Meltdown — my quieter, prettier songs since this year I'm closing 'er down. http://bit.ly/2Nb6G5 Heading to the music store by train and trolley with my son. Guitar strings (me), pounding on drums (him). Poplawski says instead of reaching infinite density in a black hole, the particles rebound and expand again. Obviously. http://bit.ly/bkwIbM I love stuff like this: http://ping.fm/gOgUT I love this song by the Staxx Brothers! Don't click this link, the song will stick in your head for days: http://bit.ly/8YWWm3 Grumpy swore at the newcomer, and humphed himself over a few inches, glaring the whole time. He didn’t stop muttering threats to himself — intimidating, cuss-filled threats — while the geek sat down on the now-vacant seat and tried to not let his legs cross over the imaginary line between them. Am I the only one who didn't know about Bisquick? So, so easy to make fresh biscuits in the morning. The problem with all that setup is it can take about twenty minutes to get everything ready and set to go. But a lot of times I only have about twenty minutes — mostly I do this late at night and I get tired — so the setting up of gear actually in many cases dissuaded me from doing any recording. I had to share. This is what it's entitled, "Fucking Awesome." Enjoy! http://ping.fm/ZIVGz |
