Open Thread Monday
Nov. 15th, 2004 09:14 amThe next couple of days are kinda busy. My mom's in town, and I'm getting together with her. I have to send out some new orders (as of today, every single pre-order, new order, and dealer order I've got is out, so if you don't get your CD in the next couple of days, PLEASE e-mail me). Laundry Day, Garbage Day... all kindsa mundanity.
One bit of amazing. I was on Dr. Demento last night. The Doctor said some very, very nice things about me -- that I'm "one of our great wordsmiths today", and my songs are "very clever", and that he was inspired to do last night's "pirate"-themed show because of hearing me do TLAPD at conventions -- for which I am flattered, humbled, and grateful.
Open thread. Have fun, play nice.

Date: 2004-11-15 06:49 pm (UTC)Tom Fenton, formerly of Ice Nine, and now with The Fibs, has had airplay and mention with their song "I'll Be Down To See You In The Fallout Shelter". We had a nice conversation last year at OVFF.
Shame that there are no stations near me that carry the good Doctor. :-(

Date: 2004-11-15 04:54 pm (UTC)They don't play Dr. D. in Los Angeles, since his original home station went to a "smooth jazz" format year ago and none of the gazillion other radio stations clogging the airwaves here will deign to pick up the show. Ironic in a not-good way. He's not making plans to uplink to any Satellite radio service or anything, is he?
You done good, Tom!

Date: 2004-11-15 06:58 pm (UTC)I really need to record an album so that I can put some of the Dr. Demento-playable stuff on it. Dysfunctional (did you ever hear the original version of it? The only hint of who I wrote it for got cut out because it wasn't as strong of a verse), Stick with the Women, and the Oh-My-God incredibly rude one that I haven't finished and it's already set selected people howling. ;-)
Got Mine

Date: 2004-11-16 03:58 am (UTC)We ran upstairs (five flights!), stuck it into the CD player, and listened away. We've played it a few times already, and we still really enjoy the juxtoposition. Reminds me a little of Walking Along the Beach in that respect. Sonogstory versus Songsound. Always fun.

Date: 2004-11-16 05:49 am (UTC)Oh, and speaking of "got it"--so do you. And so do I--or at least my CD copy of it.
Thank you for another great album, Tom!
*must...record...someday*
