Kenzie is officially 22 weeks months old (I really do know how old my daughter is…). Just two more months and she turns two years old. It is amazing how time flies. She laughs and plays, and if you saw one of her recent pictures, she even smiles on command for the camera. It’s awesome […]

Whole Lotta DragonCon 2012 Shows
Trying a new tactic in my blogging: humor. Not normal “Marc” humor… REAL humor! Ok, hold on, gathering myself…. So, for dinner tonight I made panko breadcrumb crusted chicken. It was… unique 🙂 And by “unique” I mean, unusual. And by “unusual” I mean, well not quite right. Crunchy on top and soggy on bottom. […]

Not Every Day Is St Patrick’s Day IS FUNDED!
We did it! Wait, what am I saying! I didn’t do anything… YOU did it! You helped my next CD Not Every Day Is St. Patrick’s Day. I guess love of traditional Irish songs ain’t dead afterall. I want to thank the 68 people who donated just over $4000 to help make this album happen. […]
Last Chance to Support St. Patrick’s Day
It is the final day of my fundraiser for Not Every Day is St. Patrick’s Day. Right now, I’m about $700 away from my final $4000 goal. If I can just get that last bit of funding, I can breathe a HUGE sigh of relief knowing that the album is paid for in its entirety. […]
Last day of beach, 4 days left on fundraiser
We ha a great week at the beach in Gulf Shores, Alabama. We ate some delicious seafood, swam in the ocean, flew kites, and hunted wild sea shells. It was a blast, in case you couldn’t tell from all the fun pics on facebook. Tonight we dive home. Sunday, we are visited by Gwen’s mom […]
Listen to “An Irish Lullaby”
My mom used to sing this to me when I was a wee one. I thought I would be singing it to my own daughter. Now and then, I do. But I sing it more to my wife than to Kenzie. It was superseded by Matt McGinn’s “Miner’s Lullaby” aka “Coorie Doon”. Probably because it […]
Listen to Molly Malone
Ten songs are fully recorded for Not Every Day is St. Patrick’s Day. The latest mix is “Molly Malone”. I always loved this wee ghost story about the fishmonger from Dublin who bites it, but keeps doing her job long after she’s dead. This recording is not quite done. I still want to add Jamie Haeuser’s […]
