All the artists in my Friends List are clients, as well. Poke around if'n you're curious.
FYI - contact me before trying to add me as a friend if I don't already know you. I'm not looking for numbers (nor am I trying to be a dick); I'm looking for professional contacts and clients with whom to network. Thank you.
Here's a cool video of the secret Only Living Witness show:
Looking forward to it as well! Start gathering weird noises. Come to think of it, I should send you a copy of the demos. We welcome wacky ideas from creative minds.
I know I am hogging your comments section, but I, and Charlie, would like to say thanks again for getting us back in and finishing this bad boy up. It sounds so devastating. I'll let you know when we are going to get it mastered. word.
When we get back in with you we are going to do an acapella version of Rock Lobster. Hopefully you will join in on it. It will be the best thing to ever be recorded. ever.
