David Ford - I'm alright now

I listen to this song a lot. Like.. A LOT. There are phrases in it that just stick with me and whenever I'm in a foul mood I scroll through to this song and it cheers me up.
For example:
"Everybody wades through the same coloured shit but it doesn't drag everyone down"
or
"Like all these drugs they seem to promise you the earth and then they don't keep you warm in the night"

So here's to you David Ford, for picking me up. I'm alright now.

Ramblers. Read this.

Hello ramblers!

The summer has so far been a rage of no-updates and for this I humbly apologize. Were it up to me I'd have a new song out every week but I'm working on a Macintosh that predates the hatch-opening on Lost. So it's definitely nearing it's end of days, retirement and subsequent jealousy of the hot, new, next thing I'll invest in this fall.

Meanwhile here's some short updates, links and coy, mysterious teasers for the future:

I currently reside all over the web. I have spread myself out like the roman empire (or a melted chunk of cheese if you prefer that analogy) and even I can hardly remember all the communitys I occupy.
But here's the cliffnotes:

FACEBOOK:
When updates happen they happen on Facebook first. It's just easy that way. So if you want me at your fingertips this is where you should go:

MYSPACE:
It seems kinda dead to me but of course I'm there.

SNOWFISH:
This is a good place to go and vote for me if you feel like it. They have giveaways for musical equipment so if you want to show your support this would be the equivalent of giving an alcoholic hobo a sandwich. For some reason I operate under my given name here. I don't really know why.

BANDCAMP:
If you want to carry my music around with you you can always download it for free on Bandcamp:

BLOG:
This place is dead right now. Or atleast in hibernation. But I have some plans for it for this fall. Hint: Video. Further hint: live videos.

That's all for now,

Thanks for listening and thanks for comments and feedback you send me on all my different sites. It's bread and butter for my ego and you can't rock'n'roll without a well-fed ego :)

Holler out!

I'm putting great songs in a great big pile.

I'm putting that pile on a poorly balanced box of crates and wait for it all to come crashing down on me. And then maybe I'll make something.
