Sounds Like... more or less a melodious melting pot of the bands, songwriters, and musicians that I grew up listening to as a kid. The ones that have "oh so lovingly" absorbed themselves into my subconscious,... don't we all ;)- I just love to record what I hear in my head,... play what I feel,... and let the muse of rock & roll do the rest.

   About Don Mabus
A musician / singer / songwriter with a passion for musical experimentation. Brewing ideas and melodies in a basement hideaway, that is lovingly refered to as "Electric Donnie Land". "Music has always been the greatest form of expression. It's like coloring with the "Big Box" of Crayons when you where a kid. A blank sheet of paper,... no rules,... and endless possibilities. All the colors and shades of the universe at your fingertips. The ultimate creative utopia." "Music rekindles that same notion of endless possibilities, freedom, and escape." Dig it. ~D

Don,
Thank you for adding me to your list of friends. I really appreciate it. 
My current project is a romance fiction novel with CD soundtrack  that is due out shortly and can be ordered on line in January. It will be at CD Baby, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, most on line stores, and through my web pages. 
Wishing you a happy and a prosperous new year. Hope all your projects are on track.

My book page is now up. The link is http://www.myspace.com/joymillerbook
Would love to have you as a friend there too.

Peace and respect,

Joy Miller

Don,

You were great last night at the Barn. THis old guy never goes out on a work night anymore but it was worth it. My D'Rito friends and I got such a kick out of your Monkey Face Pie comment.  Thanks again. It made my week.  I would love to have you over to my studio sometime and turn you on to some things.  Don't forget to go to my Facebook page and watch the D'Ritos On Dead Sullivan. We Do FIRECRACKER!
