OH MY AWESOME PEEPS YOU ARE HARD CORE ROCKING MY SHIT.
PHeewwww! I had to get that out.
Luckily - today is the day that nothing works. Cell phone, internet, my car. All today! So I went all Matrix and found a rotary phone in a tenement building from where I am hack broadcasting RIGHT NOW!! More soon when figure out why I been Luddite'd today. MUAH!! Muah!
That's kisses!
Love!

A bit about me. Don't get excited. It's not like I've had a life of fighting crime or whatever. Except one time in Spain, 1967. But I don't like to talk about that. Those were dark days.
:)
But seriously folks, I can't say THANK YOU enough for your pledges and your generosity. You are totally wonderful. And I've got 7 days to make it happen! So please, feel absolutely free to forward to anybody you think is interest in patronizing the arts. !!
K video time.
Oh hi!
So - this video is genuinely kicking my ass. But I WILL prevail. Except considering I'm s'posed to be cleaning a bathroom in 20 minutes, it might have to wait 'til tonight.
In the meantime! I can't resist posting this new song. I know it's wrong. But to be predictable: it just FEELS so right. :)
This is the last song we tracked for the record. And this is a TOTAL rough - meaning no fancy effects have been included, and the levels are still rudimentary. But this band you guys . . . . they are incredible. I'm SO happy I chloroformed them and dragged them singlehandedly to the studio to play my songs. Ends, means, whatever. All is fair in Rawk!
Click mightily! I so dig this track.
Lovingly love-wise

So today's update was meant to be something like: Check out this incredible update piece shot in nostalgic and evocative 16mm black and white!! But that didn't really go as planned. The fact that I don't have a movie camera kind gave me the first stumble, and it was downhill from there.
Anyway! I just wanted to again, say THANK YOU so much - your generosity is really amazing.
And a new vid is in the works. I'm getting completely addicted to these things. :)
Muah!
Darling people -
Thank you SO much for your generosity and thoughtfulness. I could not BE more grateful. And touched. This record is very important to me.
Attached is a vid about record progress . . . you might enjoy it. You might not. We'll just have to see. :)
THANKS!
