Solo stuff, three piece stuff, recorded cheaply and often.
Latest CD is a solo joint called Soda & Sympathy. It has 15 songs, and isn't quite 38 minutes long. Buy the physical thing, or download the compressed thing for FREE, at the website above.
wow, i didn't realize that i was such a copy cat! striking resemblance though, it's funny because i very rarely wear glasses or have any photos with them on. this old college friend was making fun of me because i never post pics of myself so i took one late at night before i went to bed. maybe we can start a club - "guys who look thoughtfully at the camera while taking a picture of their reflection. "
dear dan z, thank you for the music.. i have to say, the new cd kicks major BUTT.. really enjoying it.. thank you thank you thank you!!!will send new music your way soon!
There are three types of people that leave G-Man's early. Those that are late for their child support hearing, those that want to go to a crappy faux-Irish bar filled with frat folk and those that just need to go because they didn't get a key from mom. You're ok in my book. Keep on rockin' in the free world.
Next time, you're staying late. Until they sweep the free popcorn up off the floor and dump it back in the bin.
