chris stuart as asked me to help him with some radio promo stuff. today i finished compiling all our various radio contact lists into one huge excel document. oh, the fun. and i also got the cds and one-sheets he sent today as well. will be working on those the next couple of days.
pappy has eaten his dinner and seems back to his normal self finally.
tomorrow is election day. zak and i will probably meet darren (darren smith, prolly best songwriter in all of seattle, including me - way jealous!) and cj (whose wedding we attended this weekend) at conor byrne's for a couple drinks and to watch election coverage on the tv there. i am mailing in my ballot tomorrow. fingers crossed ... and more fingers hoping it's more than just the best of this particular litter ....
have news that a review of the new cd is coming in utne reader in jan/feb issue. good news, the first non-music-focused publication my work has been in.
and a new review in today, pointing out that refuge have two major spelling errors on it: bobbIE gentry and billIE joe. i'd spelled them both with "y"s. shit. well, can't cover every base i guess... that's a 300 dollar error to get corrected, if i do ...
have been writing little bits of songs all week. have one complete for the songwriter date - which was supposed to have been today but has been rescheduled for friday. the new song is called You'll Do and i don't actually like it but it was a good exercise that megan had challenged me to. got my wheels spinning for sure, which is the real goal anyway.
all for now. one more smoke and i'm off to bed. quitting smoking tomorrow. again. it's just a god awful habit!
xo,
