Shouldn't This Be

...on one of my other blogs?

Thanks and much love to Mister Old Dog again. He finished the eq/re-eq of Anyone Can Make a Shadow and I have added it to the numbers for the Old Kishwaukee Band’s I WANNA. It doesn’t fit at all and it is perfect.

I wanna give I WANNA to Cousin Mike & Bill but not without finishing some of the packaging stuff so they will have some sort of idea what this thing is going to look like.

I wanna keep thinking that this is gonna be cool just like everything else has been music-wise in 2007. Without blowing my own horn (because it’s not really) this has been the smoothest/best/luckiest year I’ve had making music and writing in some time. It’s not blowing your own horn if you admit to being lucky or having a lucky year, right? It’s not like saying the gods love me because I am so pretty. I’m just lucky or feel lucky and it has helped this year.

Period.

Wish I could say the same for the BEARS.

The risk of failure with this Old Kishwaukee Band stuff is part of what excites me about it. The few people I’ve tried to describe it to in its entirety (or where I think it will end up) have looked at me like I was absolutely bonkers.

Hence I am more interested than ever in doing it. And I like the fact that I am beginning with some old/left for dead tracks. I had so much fun putting together I WANNA I couldn’t stop there. I’ve got enough tracks together for a second thing (GO COMMANDO!) and that will be out in time to say good bye to our great Commancho (sorry Kimberly Jo) – our great Commancho gBushy deserves a going away present next Inauguration Day and the outtakes from an album of outtakes is sort of what he deserves.

Did I mention I was insane or do I have to mention things like that?

I should probably concentrate on getting studio time together with Larry to start the next bigDrag record. We’re ready to go and he’s busy as fuck. We gotta meet somewhere in the middle on this.

Finally, if you see me at the bar, ask me about my idea for a Christmas single next year. I guarantee that you’ll consider slapping a restraining order on me when I tell you.

But the Gods really do think you're pretty.
