InfluencesAllen Ginsberg's 1958 letter to John Hollander...
Sounds Like"This is an unusually cinematic album, that has a strong story behind it, but presents it in a way that is uniquely its own. The main creative force behind this undertaking is Shelly Blake-Plock, and his primary inspiration is an unusual and obscure Victorian short story which features a young boy living with an abusive father and step mother who longs to learn to play the violin. This tragic tale eventually ends in the boy's death in a surreal scene involving the ghost of his dead mother.... Shelly has assembled an immense cast of players and sound artists for 'The Violencestring'- an orchestra for him to conduct in reverse.... All together, it's an oddly entertaining story-album that's broken up into little chunks for easy digestion.... It's a totally unique experience." -- Foxy Digitalis review of 'The Violencestring'

you'll never know how right you are, well... until you're wrong, but even then you won't know. but i do expect to have some new music rolling out in the near future, and i will let you know as soon as it's hearable. listenable. rock-in-a-ball. maybe somehow you can be a part? let's discuss at some point in the coming weeks.

no rush on the dinner music video, but how'd you like the pictures i sent of the kids? i thought they were great.

wish the best, talk to you soon.
