Probably My Son Tune

After 10 years of recording and playing gigs, I am finally signed to a record label (albeit small!) Well, kind of...

The song "Worth Every While" will appear on the upcoming Series Two Records compilation. It is based out of Omaha, NB and the guy who puts out the records/ compilations also does booking for bands worldwide, so hopefully some doors will open. I am cautiously optimistic.

Other bands on this comp. are from Croatia, Germany, Canada, Denmark, New Zealand, Indonesia, Japan, Norway, Finland, US, Mexico, etc. It should be interesting to see where this goes!

The mornings are always young

I just finished reading Independent People by Halldor Laxness. Check it out if you dig Garcia-Marquez or Faulkner.

That jukebox in the corner blastin' out my favorite song...

...the nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
won't be long 'till summer comes...
now that the boys are here again

I just wanted to add that it is so difficult when I take walks and blast Thin Lizzy on my iPod because I really want to pump my fist in the air and do air guitar, but don't want to be taken for insane. Yep, Phil Lynott has that intense of an effect on me.

I love "Jailbreak" to pieces. In addition (but unrelated), I just heard the greatest New Order compilation ever. It has 7" and 12" alternate versions of every single that they released in their 27 year career. It is simply called "Singles" and has a leaf on the cover. Check it out!
