So... I've decided to play Mrs. Robinson at an open mic im doing next thursday. I'm quite excited. It was my favorite song ever when I was like 7, and I haven't listened to it in so long. The song really is fantabulous.Well, that all depends if i can memorize it in time. Not hard to play, just I'm not good at memorizing music under pressure. Ah well. It' either be that, or At the Bottom of Ever...

Well, I think it's safe to say that the "My Auto-Mix" function on URGE had a bad morning. It was going along just fine ... Leadbelly, Dylan, Ella Fitzgerald, something from Sweetheart of the Rodeo ... and then suddenly, a wrong turn.First was a fucking "worship" song from an inspirational anthology ... where did THAT come from? (Thankfully, and yes I use the word purposely, URGE has a menu opti...

Saw "Bobby" last night and I recommend it to everybody interested in glimpsing America onthe eve of possibly it's saddest moment since the civil war.

Formless questions whirl about ..... ......And we "stumble blindly through the often tangled maze of starless nights & sunless days".....
