A little song for a little Saturday morning
October 28, 2006
When I woke up this morning there was no power!Then it came back on and I made this video. Now i’m off to the garage attic to arrange old Dickens books and things.
So it’s about time I told you something important. I host a show every friday on BreakThruRadio that is called “Welcome to Monsterland.” you can access it at http://www.breakthruradio.com
The New York City band “Man In Gray” will be on this Friday’s “Welcome to Monsterland.” This is very exciting for several reasons: 1)This is a very good band 2)They are nice people 3)They are playing a CMJ showcase at the Knitting Factory soon along with their labelmates, which you should check out if you’re going to be in the area. They also have a new music video for their song “Thirty-Six” – this song is wonderful and reminds me very much of our dearly departed Sleater-Kinney.
In other news, I just saw that Joanna Newsom will be coming to Webster Hall in a few weeks. I eagerly await hearing her creepy old lady/tiny lady stylings live in the flesh. I love her.
And finally, this weekend I am buying Pro Tools, and I am also going to see the hand specialist. These two things are revolutionary. My studio will be up and running soon along with my label Kid In The Attic. My hand will presumably be fixed soon also, so I can complete all these songs I’ve been mulling over for the last 2 years and finally make the record I’ve been dreaming about. Also, this will mark my re-entry into playing in New York City.
I was sitting in Starbucks on Monday and spotted an old friend walking down the street. Now we have a sleepover tonight. Because she needs a place to stay in between shooting some things over at Columbia. Also tonight is my first webplaydate.
How exciting!
Finally, I know a special lady who is turning 80 this weekend, and is marking the occasion with bagpipes. But I can’t say who!
