Influences
Every single person I've ever heard . . . from Lonny Donnegon, the Beatles, the Sex Pistols, Frank Sinatra, Weather Report . . .
Have you ever imagined yourself sitting at home, in your lounge room - and thought - "I could be a rock star"? Here is a clip from one of my bands, Pilgrim Soul. Sitting at home, play some bass, then some guitar, turn the lights down, bring up the moving heads, the lasers, turn up the smoke, fire up the video cameras, bring in the crowd . . . Here is Fallen by Pilgrim Soul . . . yes that could be me with my red bass or my Ibenez copy . . .
Alright . . . I work as a sound engineer . . . because work for lighting troggs has dried up . . . but secretly, I once was a poet . . . and then a songwriter . . . and then one day I thought . . . I'd beter record some of this . . . and so I did . . .
Here is a small selection . . . while I gather my thoughts together . . .
The first song is a cover of Johhny Cash's cover of Trent Raznor's Hurt . . . I know . . . It's really bad . . . but don't you just love Johnny Cash?
The second song is Paradise, Momma doesn't live 'round here no more . . . honestly, it's not written about anyone . . . it's made up . . .
Number three, Fisherman, totally improvised, as is all of my material . . . just one of those strange songs that popped up out of nowhere . . .
Quatro, Walking by the Water did I mention that I loved Tom Waits . . . you said that you were gonna leave your husband, and come away with with me . . .
Number five, I Just got the Blues Well, I did have the blues for a long time . . . but I ain't got dem any more . . .
Numero six, I am not a Rock Star . . . well, I'm not . . . sorry the sound level is very low on this one, just turn the volume up and listen to everything again . . .
I'll try and replace these with some thing more appropriate . . . maybe . . .
Happy trails and watch out for those rattle snakes

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks

my understanding was that the bass electricity interconnector failed and that Victoria had its own problems with the heat and that as a result the whole system between S.A. Vic and Tas fell over. I understand that temperature records were set across all three states and lots of other facilities fell over as well. It was a 1 in a 100 year event.
A ferret got into the church organ and chewed right through the thing. Someone told me there was a reason why this happened but after consuming the whole months' alter wine in one night I still can't figure it out.
