i'm working on something for "baby"
i will cop to the fact that it's going to be "inspired" by prince, meaning it's not at all a copy of his tune (never heard it) but the arrangement and lyrics are "inspired" by his style, or at least my impression of it. let's face it, i've never been shy of trying my hand at a falsetto.
it may make you laugh or cry, or hopefully do both.

Mine is about 'crazy' business owners. Does the rest of the world have that, businessmen pretending to be crazy or insane to sell stuff?

Crazy Eddie was the original, and was from New York. I saw a fascinating show about him a couple months ago. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Eddi ... ></b>pedia only scratches the surface</a>.

Oh, and did you mean to say "November 31st?"

Thanks. I work in radio now, but my voice is rarely used actually. I am more of a behind the scenes guy that makes sure that a couple of live local talk shows run smoothly, and I babysit anywhere from 1 to 7 stations depending on the shift. My pay rate is very, very low.Älßa†ross wrote: Have you worked in radio? It really sounds like it. You have that whole "PSA" motif down to a science.
I did NOT mean to say that, and as your edit implies, I fixed it shortly after posting the first mp3 with the wrong date.Älßa†ross wrote: Oh, and did you mean to say "November 31st?"

My goal this weekend is to talk Phil in to starting work on this. I'd like to do "For You" or maybe "In Love"... both would be fun!

I did too! I was thinking of donating the lyrics as I'm imagining them in a different style than what I can even attempt. Oh, and they are rated X for eXtra blunt. Here are a few words from them:Märk wrote:I just suddenly got inspired for 'Soft and Wet', and (mostly) wrote a song in like 5 minutes. I may very well be in this.
mound
twat
epic
voyeuristic
exhibitionist
tongue dive (okay, that's two words, but they really go 2gether like a horse and carriage)
furied
deviations
hellbent
Sound interesting? I'll donate all of the lyrics for this tune after I pen a bridge.

Thanks for the compliments on my voice, y'all! I do what I can.
Purple Reign got some love in the local paper today. Unfortunately, there is no mention of Niveous, but it's still pretty cool.
<a href="http://www.spokane7.com/music/stories/?ID=7282">Here's the story on the Spokane 7.</a> (It's the second half of the story, but I think the first half is great too.)
ROCK!

Nice coverage, Glenn. You sure don't like to do anything half-assed.
I'll disagree with you about the first article. I don't get what an open letter like that is trying to do. Aftr all the author didn't link to his awesome band's page. WTF? What's wrong with digging around past frinkin MySpace? I bet if he put the couple of band names he liked and asked for recommendations of similarly capable bands he'd get some decent references. Who wants to hear him whine about it? Jeeez. And where's his offer to set up a venue where the young music scene can pratice and hone their craft?

I'm curious about what folks think about the writers' strike. If it goes on, the writers' guild strikes will shake up TV, movies and even book industries. They want increased roylaties! Go figure. Do they deserve such consideration? Should they be happy with things as they are?
