Looking forward!

Nobody can call it a bad title if it lures Lonbobby back into the ring.

There seems to be some difficulty with the title, and since my firewire card is FUBAR I am unable to do much more than write. Thus, I submit for consumption the following three lyrical snippets. There may be some rhythmical challenges with the following but this is what 30 mins and three cups of coffee produces.

1)
Dana wears dresses
But inside that skirt
Hides a hot honey
In jeans and cowboy boots
Daytime it's flower prints
And a clutch purse in white
But it's a skin tight tank top
And whiskey shooters tonight


2)
Dana wears dresses from morning 'till night
'Till the music comes up and the feeling is right
Then like on the Turin papyrus or centerfold gloss
There is nothing to stop her when the dresses come off
----
I'm getting Dana tonight


3)
Dana wears dresses that would stop a man cold
But she's too hot to handle wearing nothing but gold
Satin and silk wrap around her real tight
There is nothing but Dana in my bed tonight

Anyone who finds a way to use any two of them together gets a vote.

Damn, if I hadn't already written my own lyrics, these would fit my musical mood quite well.

My entry was supposed to be a quickie one-take G+G affair, but turned into a three-hour clusterfuck. Like every other song I've ever recorded.

Anyway I'm in, and lyrics are up at the archive.

I am in!
First time this year. Anybody heard from Teplin lately? I still owe him a colab.

I think he's taking a break.

I vaguely had some ideas about a guy named Dana who also happened to be a cross-dresser, but obviously it's too late at this point.

So now we find out.
