Marc Weeklies: Review Happy Songs of Death on iTunes
I just got back from MileHiCon in Denver, Colorado where I was the Musical Guest of Honor. How cool is that!

Marc Weeklies: Bridging the Gap With Monet
I’d like to start by thanking everyone who sent me photos of bridges over the last few days. I felt stumped as to what sort of album cover I wanted for my next cd, entitled “The Bridge”. Your pics helped me decide. I had a loose image in my mind of a foot bridge over […]

Marc Weeklies: Dragon*Con 2009 Report!
Jamie here…Ach achon ach am toirsech monuar! That’s Irish for “Alas, I am so tired, alas!” The first “Alas” is because I – like everyone else who was there – am exhausted and the second because I have to wait another year for Dragon*Con… Marc utterly triumphed – his first two shows were terrific, but […]
