Guess Who...




The answer is in the comments section. (Bonus if you can name the tambourine player)

Blue -- For you!

I got my camera going by prying on the lens with a knife! Technology!

Anyhoo, this is the sad song I mentioned. One of Lucinda Williams'. I was gussied up to go to a party so I took the opportunity to film myself looking better than usual.

Listen for accompanying howls by Mrs. Winklemeyer, my new cat.

Why Am I The Only One Singing On This Blog Lately?



Come on Rox and Mary! I miss you guys! As a means of protest, I didn't include the ABBA riff in this song. Be assured I could have, and I bet it would have sounded sweet too. I'm sorry it had to come to this. I know ultimately everyone suffers because of it, but I really felt like my hands were tied. What other option did those two scalawags leave me?

Oh, DAD-BURN IT! I just can't stay mad at those two, so I put a big ol' heart around the video, it's no ABBA riff, but it will have to do.

Whatever happened to the Yoda baby?

He turned 13! Yeah, way. That's me with the birthday boy, Adam Grigg. No he's not standing on anything.

.The birthday fruitcake.

Willy with Jenny and Adam's sister Lucia.


Lucia teaching Uncle Brian and cousin Dylan (also 13) nerf penmanship.

I Was Waiting For A Culture Club Medley....



I wasn't going to post this until someone else posted a song, specifically I was hoping Roxy would regale us with a few songs from Culture Club that she was working on. But in my continuing series of songs with the ABBA riff I offer you 'Brandy', a rather jaunty rendition, but 'Brandy' none the less. It was a bit unsettling how 'jaunty' I performed it, but try as I might, I just can't slow this one down. I guess I'm an excitable boy (an excitable boy, they all said)

...and here is a bonus video to prove it!

Different Drum



Well, it starts off a bit shaky, however, by the end, I look downright smug. But once you hear how I have incorporated an ABBA riff into a Michael Nesmith song, how can you blame me... It's an International Power Pop Coup! (By the by, get use to hearing that 'Knowing Me, Knowing You' riff, because I will be sticking it into every song I record henceforth anon!)
