The Library of Congress presentation featuring “Bomb Iran” is now online. The little segment about it is at 43:40, which is where this video should start playing. The whole video is really interesting though, you should watch it. It’s an hour long, but worth it.
Also, don’t forget that I’m going to be on KPSU tomorrow at 9 pm. You can stream it for free from kpsu.org. Listen with ears.
Next Wednesday July 30, I’m going to play on the KPSU program “That Sound.” It’s on @ 9 pm and you can stream it for free from kpsu.org. Host Dave Cusick also releases his shows in podcast form every week, which you can get from thatsoundradio.com. Mayhaw Hoons will also be in tow, providing the necessary “second instrument” in whatever form it might take from song to song. See also: “second vocal cord.”
I haven’t mentioned anything about my new album for a while have I? Well it seems like a while anyway. I’m done recording it, and mostly done mixing it, too. So basically, it’s just about finished. But finishing an album is kind of like that math/physics anomaly where you can never actually touch anything, you can only just get infinitely closer and closer. It seems like every time I’m done, some other thing pops up that needs to be fixed, or remixed, or whatever. I’ll consider it done when I can listen to it and not need to fix anything. Seems like a no-brainer, but it’s harder than it sounds. Even when it’s done, it’ll still probably lay around for a while before I have the money to get it mastered and pressed/printed. Unless you know — or are — a wealthy label that wants to spend YOUR money on such a thing.
The KINK 102 local music sampler is now OUT! It’s called Plug In Portland and my song “The Zaps” is on it, along with other Portland-scented songs. I’ll also be recording a couple songs in KINK’s Live Performance Lounge in a few weeks, so watch out for that as well (you’ll know more once that happens).
Also, don’t forget about my show at Mt. Tabor Legacy this Sunday, the 20th. $5, 9 pm, 21+. I’ll be wearing scrubs. Come.
the virus fairy has granted me the worst cold i've had in a while. starting to feel better today though, thanks to the OTC chemical fairy. [alexarrowsmith]
