Re: I set my chair by the road to watch (A Grand Parade prefight)
I’m on the road starting tomorrow morning, so I’m getting something finished up to send in today. I’m sure I’d like to have more time, but hey, that’s always the way, isn’t it?
Happy 1000, y’all!

Re: I'm having a yard sale (Everything Must Go reviews)
Hi. Looks like people who follow my Facebook turned out in force. It’s never my intent to imbalance a fight. I want my entries to live or die on their own merits. Often I’ll enter a fight and make no mention of it on Facebook, but this time I was kind of proud of the song, and I wanted people to hea...

Re: Musician jokes
A drummer walks up to the counter at a music store and says, “I’m tired of not being respected as a musician! Time to learn a new instrument. I’ll take the trombone on the wall, and the accordion in the corner.” The man behind the counter says, “Well, I’ll sell you the fire extinguisher if you reall...

Re: Unlock your dreams with the (Skeleton Key prefight)
I’ve been playing Dueling Pianos shows for the last few years here in New England, and this year I tried (in vain) to pitch a Halloween Dueling Pianos show, calling ourselves The Skeleton Keys. It would have been great! Oh well.
Anyway, I love this title.
