Sad, Sad Time

It's been a long-ass hiatus, man; the last couple weeks were filled with sad things and stressful things, too. Many, many sad things. My supervisor told me life happens, and we gotta keep on doin' your work and all that stuff, and that's a good thing, I suppose. But, sometimes, you just wanna stop everything, including your work, so you can get real quiet and listen, cuz your soul has lotsa sadness to share with the rest o' you. And sometimes it's only in those real quiet spaces that you can hear what your sad, sad soul has to say to you. So I ain't posted no new songs, and my music felt like receding into the background. Alas. Anyway, I wrote a song today, and I'm gonna record it this weekend, so if the recordin' is up to par, I'll go ahead and post it, man. Sadness, and the world moves on. Sometimes, it feels like it'd be nice if the world stopped and was all sad along with you. That would be a nice thing.

Waylon, Did June Call?

Here's the new song of the week:

Download waylon_did_june_call.mp3

I was watching "Walk The Line" on Friday, and you know that scene where Johnny Cash wakes up, and he's wasted outta his gourd, and Waylon Jennings is just sittin' there a-playin' his guitar? And Johnny sez "Waylon, Did June Call?" That's where I got the inspiration for this song. It's supposed 2 B a nice little homage to Johnny Cash, but it sounds more like the Dead Milkmen.

Coming Soon: Waylon, Did June Call?

My next song will be called "Waylon, Did June Call?" I tried to make it a tribute to Johnny Cash, but it sounds nothing like Johnny Cash. Hah, hah.

Would Have Been The Best

Oh, fuck, it looks like these damn song links I stuck on there today aren't working. Fuck, fuck, fuck. I dunno what the technical difficulty is, but I'll try to fix it. Fuck!!!!!!!!

Okay, here's the pop-song-about-love that I did this weekend. I'm really embarassed that I wrote such a song, but I have to confess that I like it, man. I think sometimes it's cool to write stuff like this if yer workin' thru yer issues. For those of you who know me reallllllll well, I think you'll know who it's about, hah.

Non Pop Song About Love-Poops

Okay, this is the non-pop-song-about-luv. It's from 2 weeks ago, and I think I'm gonna work on it some more. But, I thought I'd stick it on there (I'll probably stick the luv one on there, too), but I feel so sheepish about sticking a pop song about luv on this here fine blog, that I feel like I should make up for it by putting something on there that's more, um, well, me-ish.

Hhhhiiiiaaaattttuuuussss

Sorry 'bout that hiatus there, man. But I'm back! Indeedy.

I'm torn, yet again, between posting either a pretty song I recorded about a week ago, or a...you won't believe it, no you won't believe it....pop song about luv. Fuck! I can't believe I recorded a pop song about luv! I did it on Saturday, man. It's actually sorta inspired by Husker Du, and maybe a wee bit o' Mercy Rule, but, like, I cain't escape it. It's an inescapable fact. I recorded a pop song about luv. No no no no no no no no no!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Maybe I'll post that one just so you guys know I'm tellin' thet truth).
