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.

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.
