lame-o-me-o do my feb cd and split the scene. no show at ear-parties. nowhere man in the blogasphere though here I appear. I could be more lame but I need somethng to stand on...something to stand for...something to live for. if I were any more lame I would say I sucked at my lame attempt to pass off improvisation as hard work. and even if I do suck I cant admit it or worlds collide as I sit on the edge looking into the black abyss humming quietly to myself the tunes of others. so many great m...

So I said I mailed it yesterday but at the last minute I had to make a song change. While listening to it in the car I was so disgusted by the terrible playing on one song that I had to dump it. I lucked out by remixing another tune I had previously deleted from my CD and it turned out okay. So, today it's in the mail on it's way to RPM HQ. What a feeling ! Those of you who made it, know, those who didnt, always have next year.
Hope to make to one of the listening parties to meet other mas... (50 more chars)

So it's off to the Post Office to mail my rpm 08 Cd.
Even have a little time to spare. I made it easy on myself this year though, by only doing improvisational hybrid jazz jams. So, no vocals or lyrics to deal with. Maybe I was being a slacker but this is what I happened to be into at this point in time so I guess it counts.
I wish all the best to all other participants as we share that common bond of desperation and anxiety.....but also we share the joy of making music, and that's reall... (53 more chars)

So I'm lost in the fray....whatever that means.
I have been diligent in putting down some tracks and now swim in the river of mixes, dead ears, and self critcism....man, aint this the most fun ever !

I was a boy scout...until they booted me out for bucking their authority.....okay I really just got interested in girls and suddenly ropes and badges seemd pretty dull.
What does that have to do with rpm ? well, nothing other than be prepared, for the days fly by when you're chasing flies. Even with an extra day I find myself experiencing a small dread that I didnt have last year. Maybe I have too many other projects going on but wot-o-that as I like to say when the occaision calls for such ... (94 more chars)
