New iTom Song

They don't call me The World's Fastest Filker for nothin', beeyotch. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] hanabishirecca for the name.

Serious question: I'm thinking of changing the title of iTom 4.0 from May I Help You, Myth? to Smith and Legend. It's become a somewhat more personal album, and the last few songs will reflect that even more. Thoughts?

I think it works, more because it'll be your last iTom album at least.

And "Hope Eyrie" helps the personal factor, in a way. It's not especially mythic...unless you're a filker.

Go with "Smith and Legend...I can see a really great cover art for the CD, with you holding a guitar like a 6 shooter...

Nice name for the song. I can't wait until my lunch to listen to it.

Green Gamer issue #23

Enter... THE FILKER!

Is he FRIEND?
Is he FOE?
Is he BOTH?

*laugh* Perfect!!!

I'm gonna share it with the Pirate Guys, although I'll probably have to explain the backstory to them (they're fond of geeks and have lots of geek fans, but they aren't especially technical themselves...)

BTW, they're pretty much "go" for Capricon next year...

Looks like your 'listen' link is 404'd.

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news :P. But the 'download' link works fine.

Go for it! A suggestion since its going to be a legend, toss in an extra bonus song of another classic Tom Smith song that has gone out of print. (There are likely a couple that have not made the CD jump yet...)

And this song, my friends, is living proof of that legendary and most practical advice:

NEVER annoy the Bard. You WILL regret it. Because music lives a lot longer than reputations.

*applauds*

That was so creepy. I thought you were honestly talking to *me* in your post when you said "Can I help you, Myth?"

What? I skim sometimes and that stood out. ^^;

Hmm, it seems the Wikipirate deleted but later re-introduced you in the Cthulu entry.

You, sir, consist of at least seven distinct varieties of win.

Smith and Legend sounds good. Great song by the way.

Great song. As for the album name, I like "May I Help You, Myth?" can you make it an album later?

Smith & Legends is an awesome title :)
