  1. Too bad I had to follow it up by getting sick today. Ugh. But I'm fine this evening and hope to get back at it tomorrow.
  2. Looking back, I had a heck of a weekend, the tuba session & the airing of the Hip Hop Poetry Slam, which seems to be drawing some attention.
  3. Damn, wrong chord. When you make a wall of sound with a mouse, and you lay down the wrong note, it can set you back a half hour. Better now.
  4. The first brick has fallen in the ultimate collapse of the CD wall. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/... Who's next?
  5. Just packed up from the tuba concert. Sotto Voce's arrangement of Mr. Bungle's "Ars Moriendi" was brilliant. It exposed layers of harmony.
  6. Cranked more chords tonight with some semis, refrigerators and hair dryers. Tomorrow is the live tuba concert for WPR. Big, fat brassy fun!
  7. @lisabu You'll watch Wheel of Fortune with the rest of us!
  8. Wow, a Google search shows Here on Earth mp3s on dozens of torrent sites. One delivered 159 downloads in 9 days. Free mp3s = good publicity.
  9. Now we're on to something! Added some laundry fan French horns and my chorus has a little more take off. Rule: When in doubt, bigger chords.
  10. Listening to lots of new albums lately. This is a good thing in our iPod/shuffle age. Wild Beasts, Bear In Heaven and Doves lead the pack.
  11. After days of fighting with it, I'm ditching the banjo samples. Maybe for another song. Slowed down a cell ring for a tremolo guitar effect.
  12. It's late and I'm still up, thinking about the future of public media, all a'glow with possibilities and my role in it all. Inspired mostly.
  13. @toddwitter Wait, your legs are achy, too? Weird. I thought it was just me & my "sympathy pains" toward my pregnant wife! ...or not...
  14. That this little monster for the uninitiated - http://bit.ly/6nSoO
  15. Next weekend, I get to mix a live, four tuba rendition of Mr. Bungle's "Ars Moriendi." I love my career, yes, yes I do!
  16. @lisabu Beth and I just opened your baby gift! Awesome! Thanks so much! Oh, and our cat Murrow thanks you for the fun grocery bag... :)
  17. He's not due until the end of December, but the word's already in: My kid's gonna be some REAL trouble!! :)
  18. New band name under consideration: Mad Genius. No "The" needed. The's are overused and overrated. Kinda hip-hop, isn't it?
  19. Finished a nice arpeggiated banjo arrangement then created some warped handclaps with a toolbox being slammed against the basement floor.
  20. Gave a speech on social media in radio/TV yesterday with @lisabu. I think it went down well. Lots of good ideas, compliments and laughs.
