EP is short for "electric penis"

I shared a six-song EP with your mom last night

I have a new album out! I wasn't intending to target Bandcamp Friday for this but it ended up being a nice coincidence.

I will also be filling my cart with a bunch of other peoples' music, as is tradition.

Congrats!!

Oh wait right I was thinking of Bad Boys at Bat Mitzvahs. He won the live fight primarily by bribing everyone with pot brownies or something. My bad.

(I blame me being, ironically, somewhat high at the moment.)

(*) EDIT: Thanks for that Wayback archive link. This was a joy to revisit, right after I admitted that I was one of the small handful of participants in that competition.

I think you still owe a bunch of us some pot cookies from the 2011 livefight.

Yeah I started to take a break from songfight right before .com stopped updating and I'd missed that meanwhile was a thing until .org had taken over. I remember coming back during the prefight for Fool in the Middle. Unfortunately I can't find the prefight thread in the extremely spotty archives of ...

Fuck that guy but yeah I want to say it was around 2003-2004ish? It only lasted a couple of weeks. It turns out to be hard to make a songfight-like though. Back in 2002 I was taking a break from songfight and tried running my own similar contest and it was super difficult to get anyone to enter. EDI...

I wouldn't normally post this here but this is an earlyish work-in-progress version of the album version of my song. Since folks wanted to hear more thorough takes on it (or at least, Pigfarmer Jr and ujnhunter both mentioned such a thing).

In no particular order. Frankie Big Face : This song makes me want to curl up and take a nap while I think about life. Maybe I'll have a nice cup of decaffeinated coffee and watch the sunset. The Sheeple's Choir : So much of this just keeps me thinking of Cassettes. As usual the tonal shifts between...

just made it home, oh my fucking god i am tired, but also excited for the musical future

I used to think capos were cheating, now I just think they're an assistive device.

Now I think of it. I did feel a bit seedy when I woke up this morning. Must be the covid.

Surely wasn't the approximately 30 beers and 5 glasses of wine you'd had the previous evening, no.

Hoblit was exposed to that too. Hoblit, how are you feeling?

I'm sorry you got COVID. Just a reminder to everyone that the pandemic is still ongoing and everyone has to do their duty to stop the spread. Mask in public spaces, test on days when you expect to be unmasked in the presence of others. Tests aren't 100% accurate but they're sure a lot better than th...

Thanks! I was going to do that if nobody else did, so thanks for taking care of it.

If you want to see photos of the event I’ve set up a shared album at https://photos.app.goo.gl/hU1MRNQqK1H941KK7

If you have photos to add, send me your Google account address (usually Gmail.com) and I’ll give you access.

On that note:

I'm in

Ah yes, the live part is what Song Fight! Live! had been missing for the past few years. Such a good time and I'm glad everything worked out. Thanks especially to Leah for being such an amazing organizer and keeping everything running smoothly (or as smoothly as is possible with such a cat-herding e...

Sockpuppet It is time for me to go Down the newly open road I am grateful for how I have Had some of the best times of my life Looking to the setting sun Looking out for number one Half a life is better than Having never lived a life at all Here we are In the valley of my dreams Time to fly And liv...

Just a reminder for live fighters, your entry will NOT be automatically submitted. If you want the stream audio from your performance I am happy to oblige. Otherwise you’re on your own.

If all goes well, here is where the second night's (and livefight's) stream will be:

Unfortunately there was only so much that could be done about the individual levels, as the audio was recorded on a mic next to the camera at the top of the room. There was no way to tap into a mixing board or the like. And we actually talked a bit about the More Science thing before we played it, b...
