Look, I'm not looking to alienate anyone, but you know what I've never understood? Wearing baseball hats unshaped (you know, when the bill is perfectly flat and the tags are still hanging off in various areas, occasionally a sticker remains) and over one's ears. I often see this and wonder where the fashion has gone.
Haven't they ever listened to Joe Jackson's "Look Sharp!" or at least seen his album cover?
Then again, I realize, these folks probably look at ole Glenn, with his oft bountiful curls, patchy facial hair and cowboy boots north of the Mason-Dixon line and they probably think, "Does he listen to Joe Jackson, because he certainly doesn't show it." And that, my friends, is the circle of life. It's all about love and understanding, or lack thereof, but having the willpower and open mind to submit to them.
Are you feeling me yet?
Who the heck is this dude:
-Sings and plays guitar in Boston rock group Cassavettes.
-Recording a debut (sort of) solo record entitled "Okono Road." Due out Fall 2008. Produced by Todd Thibaud.
-Eats only white food, sources report.
Glenny boy! This is a message about our show friday. Not for your benefit, as I already mentioned the show to you once, but for the benefit of your wild raving fans, who check your mypsace page meticulously and instantly associate anything on it as "cool."
That being said, we be rocking the Lizard Lounge friday night! We might even play Purple Rain after the countdown, you never really know.
what's up my man? i really like your music. it's not quite the style my ear usually wanders to, however i dig it quite a bit. i hear some of the beatles, bob dyaln, neil young, maybe even a little tom petty. any who it's good stuff. next time your around big D give a call (972-310-4653). i realize i have been a bit of an anti-social creature over the years, but if you don't mind sitting in a room filled with enough smoke to suffacate a small animal, we should catch up. perhaps i might even twist your arm into doing a choriagraphed dance to ice ice baby. i have recently become somewhat of an amateur kareoke enthusiast, and that seems like an appropriate venue. how are things in your neck of the woods? how bout those celtics, baby? you still ball like back in the day? anyway. it has been too long since we talked. i would like to hear some stories about glenn yoder, straight from the horse's mouth. give my reguards to the rest of those Yoder's. the dude abides.
Yes-in=deedeedo, my eyebrows are quite the excited look. and you my friend are of the same look??? Excellent. But who the hell is sam donaldson? Forget, I can just google him! Talk to you later home skillit!
Shitballs. I cruised thru the square and it didn't look like anything was happening so I sucked down a couple beers and a burger at Shea's. Next time I guess. peas-J
So I know that I am the worst friend ever and never call. Sorry!
What is pretty optimum? I will tell you. How about feeling your little boy kick and punch? Now that is optimum.
Traci and I made little Max Austin Sheen a german shepard and named it Raul. Not really. But that would have been very reminiscent.
I think I will make an album of baby songs for the little grizz. what do you think about that??
Hi, Glenn. I like your music...and yes I do recognize myself playing on Ambivalent Farewells. It sounds good. You seem to be doing very well with your band, The Cassavettes. I would love to do another project with you. I enjoyed recording that day. Let me know when you have something for me to jump in on. My e-mail address is jmeach21@hotmail.com and I check it frequently. Or if you still have my number, give me a call.
Oh! So this is your account? Now I'm feelin the love! Happy Valentines to U 2. Guess I had to make my own account to understand how to navigate. Trying to write a policy paper. Feel like banging my head on the wall. That Paige girl looks like Maggie.
I just wanted to let all my friends on myspace know that Five Times August is giving away six signed acoustic guitars to six lucky fans! Every two months in 2007 I'll be drawing a winner at random from the FTA mailing list. It's THAT easy to win!
Why am I doing this? Simply because I just appreciate the support of my fanbase!
