SOMEDAY YOU'LL REALLY DIG ME
Succubus in the City - May 30, 2008
Up to this point my pattern has been to post blogs only when I really have something to announce, but I suppose this could be considered a deviation from that ... (I'm just preparing you for what may be an anticlimactic entry).
Anyway, I promised myself I wouldn't be one of those People Who Blog About Their Personal Lives (I guess by personal lives I really mean relationships, since what isn't personal really?).
So I won't.
But I will say that it's been some fucked up bullshit beyond all comprehension for the past few weeks.
And I am clinging to the hope that it will all add up to my Magnum Opus.
I've been writing a lot and I have a couple songs actually finished. I can't wait to record. This finding-a-good-and-affordable-and-compatible-producer/engineer is harder than it looks. But I am still finishing this new crop of songs anyway, so that buys me a little time--and if any of you happen to know (or be) someone who fits the bill, please let me know.
On a random note ... like most subway riders (I assume), I take pleasure in being nosey about other people's reading materials on the train. I see a lot of really great looking pulp novels with really awful covers. I forget some of the best titles, but I just wanted to share one with you that I just saw. It definitely takes the cake. The title was (I kid you not): Succubus in the City. My next album title? I think so.
Anyway, I wonder if it just came out because of the Sex and the City movie debuting this weekend ... maybe the girl wanted background and was on her way to the movies ... or whatever. Anyway, it made me smile and think of how glad I am that this book exists. Oh wait, but you have to see the cover to get the full effect. (check out the blood cosmo!):

Anyway, it has been so warm and beautiful here the past couple days. Summer brings about a whole new set of senses it seems. I don't have AC, so my windows are always open and the sounds permeate the apartment. It's kind of like a beautiful John Cage piece or something. At least when it isn't just annoying fucking noise pollution. Tomato, TomAHto I guess. Ice cream truck music, skateboard wheels rolling on pavement, the quake of approaching subwoofers, alley cats in heat below my window, ambulance sirens, the squealing brakes of the elevated train, the rattle and hum of my neighbors' air conditioners. (I'd rather listen to the din of the neighborhood than have one of those obnoxious things clattering and whirring next to my head all day ... at least I say that now ...). Makes me wanna record it for the Magnum Opus.
Yeah.
So that's it I guess ... I told you it was anticlimactic. Unless of course, you are truly satisfied just by seeing the cover of Succubus in the City (as you should be).
'Til next time,

AMAZING fan-directed video for "Luck"!! - April 18, 2008
I am completely speechless right now.
A phenomenally talented gentleman by the name of mister charles barton directed, created, conceptualized, animated, etc. this amazing video for my song "Luck"...It is so fantastic, I don't even know what to say, except check it out for yourselves (and tell your friends). And don't forget to leave comments telling mister barton how great it is, because it is... Ok, enough talk; go check it out:
