Hmm… I should probably be documenting stuff that’s happened up here in [tag]Rhode Island[/tag]. Sorry I’ve been a bit lax, there’s been a lot going on!

Our first week of shows were rather nice. The two days before the 4th were P to the A to the CKED. By 3pm both days it was a solid mass of meat, [tag]bikinis[/tag], and [tag]beer[/tag] undulating before the band shell. The two days after… were a bit sparse. Cooler weather rolled in and left us with a small but appreciative crowd (meaning high energy, low tips).

You should see how people rock out to [tag]Sweet Caroline[/tag] by [tag]Neil Diamond[/tag], though. It’s off the hook.

I’ll get some visuals soon, and kudos to [tag]Chris Penn[/tag] for lending us a video camera, too. Hopefully it’ll arrive on the island today.

Update: Oh yeah… if you want to check out a LONG conversation Kevin and I had about [tag]musicians rights[/tag] in the [tag]new media[/tag] world, catch the video here:
(more…)

I’m finally back from vacation and got tagged by [tag]Chris Penn[/tag] at the [tag]Financial Aid Podcast[/tag] to pick 5 [tag]podsafe songs[/tag] that’d make great [tag]music videos[/tag].

Okay, I’ll recuse my own songs except for one… filling the list with my own stuff would be exceptionally lame. However, I think one in particular would make a hell of a good video. If you had the patience to film it.

Anyhoo, here’s the list in no particular order:

• [tag]Latté Days & Porter Nights[/tag] by [tag]Matthew Ebel[/tag]
• [tag]She Walks By[/tag] by [tag]Mike Errico[/tag]
• [tag]Superhot Lady Cop[/tag] by [tag]Beau Hall[/tag]
• [tag]Sound Scientist[/tag] by [tag]bill[/tag]
• [tag]Hey Hey Sister[/tag] by [tag]Laura Clapp[/tag]

[tag]Stress[/tag] by [tag]Jim’s Big Ego[/tag] doesn’t count since it’s already got a killer music video. See for yourself.

Anyway, I’m not in the habit of “tagging” other people ’cause I normally abhor that kind of practice, but I definitely encourage you to put up your own list on your own blog. Let’s see whom you’d like to put on YouTube.
