The musician/drywaller I hired to record and make me sound good informed me today that his computer crashed and won't be fixed for a couple days.
(National extra-long holiday weekend in Canada. Canada Day is Tuesday July 1 so few are going back to work until Wednesday...)
So......I'll be really early for next years effort. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Well, the wabbit gave tentative approval to the "whimsical" reworking of my wind song, now known as the summer song......
so I will just clean it up a bit,
add a few more "whimsical" parts
and then submit it to Dave.....
Maybe Dave can make it the 1st track.....then everyone can rip it out of the player and destroy it...thereby blowing the opportunity to hear all the good tunes that would have followed :cool: and forcing them to buy another copy! |

I've got about 8 songs so far in hand, or in the mail. By popular demand let's extend the deadline through the JULY 4TH holiday weekend. Since I have not recorded enything myself yet, you can see where that request came from.
Don't worry abuot all that fancy production crap, just sit down in front of a mic and let it rip (or in my case let it r.i.p.).

Location: Phoenix AZ | Cliff, don't you feel like I do - not winning or placing at the Frisky Mermaid was a blessing in disguise? Imagine the PRESSURE to deliver something truly outstanding for the OFC CD if you happended to walk away from Amelia with some prize money in your pocket? Oh the harrr-ah.
And speaking of prize money - Am I the only one who doesn't recall the winners opening up the bar tab and taking care of their buddies for a few rounds?

I wanted to write something new but the project crashed and burned. So, your going to get my Amelia Wind Song....
I mean my Award Winning Amelia Wind Song.
And BTW.... With the knowledge and confidence I got from Matt's Clinic I have managed to write my VERY FIRST lead riff. |

Location: NJ | I completely "choked" on my tune at Amelia . . .
I had played & played it (while I was recording it) to the point where I was almost "sick" of it.
In the days leading up to it, I just didn't play it. With Temp coming up & travelling, there just wasn't "time". That night at Amelia, I just "lost" the song in the middle of it . . . . "oh well".
No matter, I think the one for the CD'll be a MUCH better tune . . .
SmartMove with the "waffles", Brad . . .
Gotta' be MUCH cheaper than a BarTab. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | ... you mean it only cost you $20. to have a group of experienced (not me) musicians re-arrange your song for you, provide the backup band, practice and perform it with you ??? AND, don't forget you did get to eat, didn't you? |

Come to think of it, most of the "band" did not make that trip to the Huddle House. It was just a bunch of hangers on / groupie types. |
