Christmas Music in Birmingham
Now that I have A Celtic Christmas underway, I thought it was time for me to start planning some Christmas music shows. I have setup a Christmas Music Performer in Birmingham webpage. It’s designed only for those who are interested in booking. If you know any one interested in that, let me know. Also, don’t forget […]
Can a Giant Mish-Mash of CDs, Websites, Podcast, and News Save the World?
I had a busy week. So alas, I wasn’t again able to publish a new Pub Songs Podcast. My apologies. I do want to keep it weekly, but there’s a lot to do. Scottish Songs of Drinking & Rebellion Arrived from the Printers Yesterday, Scottish Songs of Drinking & Rebellion arrived from the printers. I […]
Which News Station Will Manipulate Your Mind Today?
I hate watching the news. Sure it’s great for giving you a quick 5 minute viewpoint of the news, but that’s the problem. It’s a viewpoint. Every new source is biased in some ways. Last weekend, I was waiting to check into my hotel and PandoraCon when I heard some statement. It was about the […]
Daniel the Tiger
Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood was a love/hate thing for me. I think Mr. Rogers was delightful. I LOVED the intro and outro of the show. So warm and comfortable. I have beautiful memories of him. But the puppets… They always weirded me out. Yet, I was still blown away with delight when I heard the Mr. Rogers […]
Relearning to Jam
One of the great joys of being a musician is the jam session. There’s nothing like getting into a groove and just having fun with it. The song can go on for ten minutes and continues to be a blast to play. If you’re really lucky, it’s also a blast to be heard. I had […]
Replication vs. Duplication
I hate CD printing terminology. It’s so bloody counter intuitive. Here’s the definitions from the Discmakers website. CD Replication includes the creation of a glass master from a client’s original master, a nickel stamper created from that glass master, and the injection molding of clear optical-grade polycarbonate substrates (clear discs) from the nickel stamper. The process […]
Grateful for Adventure (and Adventurers)
In 1989, I moved to Italy to live with my mom for my senior year of high school. We traveled a lot. In fact, while the rest of my senior class went to Rimini to get drunk over Spring Break, my mom and I went on a pilgrimage following the artwork of Piero della Francesca. […]
Celtic Geek Manifesto
Do you love Celtic music and culture? Do you love science fiction and fantasy? You are a Celtic Geek. Welcome to the family! For those new or uncertain about this small, but growing group of individuals, let me lay down some details about Celtic music and culture. Celtic is defined as anything from the seven […]
Healthcare and States Rights
Today, I have a political rant. I’m gonna try and keep it bipartisan, because I think the ideas fit both parties… or at least the moderates of both parties. Before I start, a simple letter to all politicians in Washington–SHAME ON YOU! To shut down the government. You are all criminals in my mind. I […]
