Photo M&M's

Soooo


I'm gearing up the Asobi Seksu show this Thursday...I hope to see some of you there. I bought some M&M's just for this event. I'm not much for Valentines Day...as a matter of fact, if you know me at all, I absolutely hate that "holiday". But I did muster up a little "mush" for the show. I think it fits just fine. Check it...




It actually matches the buttons I have, but unfortunately will not be giving away at the show. My supplier has had a run of bad luck and I pretty sure they won't get shipped in time. Oh well...

But, I have a pretty sweet photo shoot lined up this coming Saturday. I still need to do a bit of ground work to find outlets in the crazy outside environment, but even if that doesn't pan out, I'm pretty excited. I'll speak of the photographer, and the like, when I have the prints in my hand. I don't want to jinx this.

It's going to be soo phenomenal...

...especially if I can get my hair as big as possible...


And Bill Tucker is coming down to StL again to promote the release of his newest album "Mythological Creatures". Here's a little video featuring bits of it from when .e and I played in Chicago.



The bill includes:
Bill Tucker
.e
Alberto Patino and Dave Stone Due
Syna So Pro
@ Floating Laboratories

And I could blab on about a few more things...

♫Candy Says♫

Ok,

What to say...what to say...

My New Years Resolutions are still holding strong. Yes it's only been 3 weeks but you know...it can be tough.

All you digifreaks can get my album on either iTunes, Napster, or Rhapsody...I find it hilarious that Rhapsody has it listed as "Alternative/Punk"

My demo titled "Numbers" was played on Dirty Radio a while back... I forgot to mention that I went internet radio as well. Oops. The people who are on my Mailing List are the only ones who's heard this song. Just perks of signing up...

I'm opening for Asobi Seksu on the 4th of February at the Old Rock House. It's a Thursday and I think tickets are $12 in advance but $14 at the door. Pretty effing steep I know. I don't know how else to encourage you to come to this show other than offering you a bunch of cool shit (T-shirt-Buttons-Stickers-M&M's-My Album) for $5. And if you have all of that already, I will be busting a new tune or two at this show. I really, really hope to see some of you there. Not only for me, but Asobi Seksu is the shhhhh...

This Saturday will mark the 1st Annual Empty Pocket Music Feast & Swap Meet. There's a ton of awesome artist playing as well as delicious foods, indie clothing, and tubular art.

...who says tubular anymore?

Check it.

3:00pm- Dave Stone + Alberto Patino

Begin with '10

OFF TOPIC

I've finally concluded that the shorthand term for 2010 is just ten. Sounds weird as hell but hey, we'll only' have to deal with it for 10 years...

ON TOPIC

So...

I must say I'm pretty anxious to get this year rolling. I have a lot of plans for this year including:

  • recording my next album

  • adding a live drummer to the live set

  • summer regional tour

  • finalizing the fairy concept album (story and songs)



But these plans are going to take a lot of discipline and I must rid myself of a lot of distractions. Which is why my main two New Year's Resolutions are try to be and remain positive and no more dating. Men are my second highest distraction, with music being the highest, and I need to stop compromising my time. Instead I need to use this time to get back into shape and take care of me. The end of '09 was a huge wake up call for me in health related issues and I hastily need to make some changes to improve my quality of life. Plus I've been slacking on networking, promotion, and just contacting necessary press to help get the word out. It's like a never ending resume and cover letter.

...I really, really hate writing those...

But...

I must do them, cause no one will do it for me.


You all should check out my friend Michael's project Marthasville, for I've found myself acting as a semi-producer for some of his tunes. They are still demos but something is definitely there.

I'm also playing at Cranky Yellow on the 23rd of this month as well as playing in KDHX's Live in St. Louis 2010 in early March on the Space Parlour show.

More shows soon...

Here's to you all having a great 2010.
