Thanks, David! That was the genesis of the project. "Hey, you know what I should do, hahahah..." It started as a joke, but then when I got the amazing pianist in, I was all, uh-oh, I have to up my game! He happened to be at the college where we were recording; he was playing in the big band that performed a piece the SO had composed the night before. The prof (who I thought would be doing all the parts) called him up and said, hey, wanna drop in? It really elevated it; suddenly I was the weakest player on my own project! But I was pleased with how it came out, and it's fun to have something for sale on iTunes!
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I read on Facebook (posted by Julian Lennon) that Cynthia Lennon has died.
Well, I think it's real.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Contrary to rumor, Joni Mitchell is not -- repeat, NOT -- in a coma.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The new Django Django album is great, which makes me happy.
ION, I think Tame Impala are on tour promoting their new album, which doesn't come out until July. iTunes let me pre-order the album--four of the tracks can be downloaded now and the rest when it officially comes out. Weird.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Can we make a rule that John Legend doesn't get to sing Bill Withers' songs, like ever?
