What Color Is Your CD? I am extremely productive tonight. Right now, I’m editing my second What Color Is Your CD order for my hobbit CD sponsors. I have two done and two more to complete. I think that is the last stuff I need to do to complete those sponsorship packages. I’m debating whether […]
It’s that same old question that every musician hears, “When are you coming to Philly? Seattle? Chicago?” Or “Maine”? I wish I knew, or could answer that question. The top priority in my life right now is parenthood. I’m not touring much. However, that does not mean that I won’t come play music for you. […]
The Renaissance Festival Podcast’s annual Spooky Halloween Podcast Show went online last Wednesday. It’s an extra long, fun show with lots of great spooky music. (FYI. The show is rated PG-13.) I think my favorite thing about Halloween is the pumpkins. Admittedly, I’ve never been a great pumpkin carver. Rather, I just love the pumpkin […]

It’s not easy making it as a folk musician. That’s why I spend a lot of time thinking about how to succeed in the music biz. I do it for me, but also for other musicians that I help out through my free music marketing ezine. Nearly every day, I learn something new. There are […]

I read some interesting blogs over the past few days. Artists like Amanda Palmer and Neil Gaiman are organizing tours using fan funding sites like Kickstarter. I started fan funding my music back in 2004. The Brobdingnagian Bards’ album Memories of Middle Earth was funded entirely by Nagians. However, I never thought of a practical […]
Saturday at DragonCon began with a mistaken plan. I wanted to go play for the lines, but I forgot that the parade started at 10am. That, combined with the fact that DragonCon’s new registration system was a huge success, meant that I would stay at the table. That’s when I got the call that Gwen […]
DragonCon was a lot more relaxing for me this year. I’m sure having the family with me made a big difference. Last year, I was a wee bit worried about how I would take care of a family as a musician. I took it easy and had fun this weekend. Some awesome shows helped! Originally, […]
