A Very Danziggy Halloween - the sequel!

It's just like my last one, but slowed down and with too much flange.
His father was a wolf, but that's a whole other song.

Nice

Meet my new band, Nice.

We are working on a garage krautrock thing.

Some stuff from our first show at Quenchers:
 Boss That Scratch

Open You Up

Hell of a way to end the opening night of Auktoberfest. Dig that polite applause.

Danziggy's songs are better, but he's not gonna get her.

My wife, who taught figure drawing for a number of years, helped me greatly with the Jem drawing.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 30

30 Day Song Challenge: day 30 - your favorite song at this time last year



Joanna Newsome - Monkey and Bear

I guess this was one of my favorites a year ago. I got this album around the time it came out and it didn't really click until last year. The music is so dense and the lyrics are so involved, but it's pure poetry.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 29

Day 29 - a song from your childhood


Peter Schilling -  Major Tom (Coming Home)

This was probably the first song I liked that wasn't part of my dad's record collection. I didn't find out the name of it until maybe 15 years later. I just found out it was supposed to be a retelling of David Bowie's "Space Oddity".  Also I just realized that the theme song from Heathcliff and Friends ripped off the vocal part from the end of the song.

Day 28 - a song that makes you feel guilty

I'm sorry, Ian, ok? I'm sorry! Is that what you want to hear Ian? I'm sorry!

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 27

30 Day Song Challenge: day 27 - a song that you wish you could play

I can't play jazz guitar at all, even with four fingers. 
Django Reinhardt - J'attendrai Swing
Somehow Django Rinehardt was able to be the best jazz guitarists using only two.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 26

Day 26 - a song that you can play on an instrument




 The Chantays - Pipeline

This was the first song I learned to play on guitar, maybe 1991 or so. I hadn't figured out any non-power chords yet, so "Jane Says" wasn't an option, and the easiest non-chord based songs - "Hunger Strike" and "Nothing Else Matters" - hadn't been released yet. Maybe they were, but I hadn't heard them.

My etsy site

I made an etsy site for my comics, for people who don't have ready access to me or to Quimbys.
The site is located here. You can buy issues 1 through 5 separately, or as a group for a discount.

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 25

30 Day Song Challenge: day 25 - a song that makes you laugh




John Spencer Blues Explosion - Full Grown

The purest troglodytic stupidity of rock and roll packed into one song, this.
