Done di done done done.

14 songs, three collaborations. Five more collaborations floating around in the ether in various states of completion. Two more songs in my head that I am going to try and nail down before Sunday.

No sweat man. BTW I am really happy with the music you made. You kept the feeling/vibe while refining it. I hope everything goes smooth with mixing in the vocals. Let me know if you need anything more or different.

I'm quitting FAWM, at least for this year. I've got too many other things to do. Four new songs... good enough for me.

I believe the appropriate term at FAWM is "Feast." :-)

I'm way behind, but my throat is clearing up, so I still have some home. I'll be spending tomorrow after work, some of Saturday afternoon, and most of Sunday feasting. See y'all at the finish line!

Two new songs added which officiates my completeness of the task. But why stop there? We'll see if anymore inspiration hits me.

By the way the "Back in the Box" song is not a first for me, but it is a rarity: a song inspired by someone else's poetry.

Yeah, since I will probably have a "Double Take" I will claim that is a FAWM song and be all "WOW."

If you finish it by the end of February, it IS a FAWM song.

Or what am I missing?

This is probably my last FAWM song. Now I leave to go make the lyrics to this actually happen today. Too bad y'all can't be with us to drink our Imperial Red and brew our dunkelweiss.

16 We're the Brewsters - For over a year, some friends and I have been brewing beer. We call ourselves The Punky Brewsters. This song is both our story and basic instructions for brewing beer. Hey, I do what I can to help society.

I had a specific album concept for FAWM, what with the A being there. I wrote some lyrics and sketched out some chords but that's it.

This is it guys! Here is one of the tightest recordings I've ever been a part of (right up there with my BLT and EAF collabs):

I think Caravan Ray did a great job and we hope y'all agree.
