At this rate, it's a two-fer

After such a long drought, I'm kinda FLOORED TO BE IN THIS SITUATION ,BU

Solo CD update

Well, after a long weekend of recording all the instruments are done. It's down to singing a few things and it goes back to Anchorage to mix and master.

Hmmm, like any long project it's a little different than what I'd started. I like it more. Mostly lap-steel acoustic songs, some other stuff that you've heard at solo gigs lately. So far I'm really happy, and excited that this is almost finished.

Going to see Little Feat on Friday!

Enough about the economy and the election. I've got a night off, and so I'm going to see Little Feat this Friday. Cool....

Dollar got the blues

Gatemouth Brown said it best.....

Time to try again...

Some of you may remember that I ran for President of the US in 2004, using a bar called Studio 68 in Anchorage, Alaska as my campaign headquarters. Seeing as I got something like 12 write in votes, and looking at the mess we're in it is clearly time to revisit my write in candidacy. Typically, we're doing this at the last minute. But, if you need someone to vote for and you're confused? I'm you man.

My platform is an unstable one. Veggie burgers in every pot. Renaming the letter 'W' from the english language to sound like what it really sounds like. Re-thinking congressional service to a lottery ticket. Granting Wal-Mart least favored nation status. Really practical stuff like that. See? I've got ideas here people. And I'm a better Sax player than Bill Clinton, have more hair than Hillary, I can out-shoot Sarah, out-talk Barrack, and I'm taller than McCain. Perfect for the job.

And if I win, Southern Culture on the Skids is gonna play the Inaugural Ball, and you're all invited. We're drinking Bud out of the bottle (long necks, of course because they sound better on the lap steel- go to youtube for the evidence there), firing up the grill and closing all the streets. And after the party the real work starts.

Send the bums back home and support the arts all with one vote. A bold political master, no?

Here's some sticker art to get you going....










And, since education is an issue, here's something to keep in mind about this candidate....

The ultimate solo gig

OK, ABSOLUTELY NO BLUES CONTENT. Read on, if you're a purist....


I have no idea who this is, but it's a one-man band doing a great cover of AC/DC. And to make it even better, he's doing my all time favorite "I've been drinking and I'm singing along with the music in the pub even if I don't know the freekin words" song....



OK, back to the blues....
