here is a quick list of my favorite things: cookies, cornbread, bbq, sushi, avacados, beer, and hugs... that pretty much does it. album is making progress! these recordings are courtesy of my basement. i'm playing all the wonky instraaments on there, which is why they are funkytown. it's neater and tidy-er in the studio, even though it's still all ab-band there too...anyhow! LIVE BAND includes the fantastic jay and the wonderous johnny. also known (amongst themselves) as the scumbags? shouuuttoutttsss to you twos. other projects include the commuters (rroockk), the real geniuses (80's covers abound), the baltimore afrobeat society (daaancceee!!) and others.
just stopping by to have a listen. still such a fan from afar! seems like everything is going musically well for you? i'm hardly ever on mspace anymore. hugs!
