Changes In Longitude

Hey All,
it is with an unheavy heart that I announce my postponement of my tour to the UK from March to May. Several dates had been booked and hopefully those venues will be available in May. The reasons are many and I'm not disappointed in the least.

First, CD sales are just beginning to roll in and the financial cost of the tour is considerable. This will afford me some more time to put together resources and promote.

Second, as mentioned in my previous blog, I have been invited to appear at the International Pop Overthrow Music Festival in Liverpool once again during 20-26 May. I couldn't pass up an opportunity to visit the Birthplace of the Beatles and play at the Cavern Club again. More details to follow.

Finally, the original tour would have occurred during the Easter season and I've been fortunate enough and blessed to have been given expanded tasks at church. Which I'm feeling wonderful about.

I know that many of you were expecting to see me in two months and I hope that you will be even more eager in May. That just means more time to get familiar with the songs on A Talent For Loving!

Happy Cary Grant Day to you! That means rent or watch one of his classic films, like North By Northwest, Bringing Up Baby, Notorious or Operation Petticoat. They come with my highest recommendation for fun viewing. Marvel at how he can handle screwball comedy, suspense and action. Clooney eat your heart out. Grant was the man (after Bogart, of course, Dad! Ha ha ha). Check your local listings, maybe there's CG marathon on a movie channel.

Have a great Friday, everybody.

Peace & Disco Beats

John Lennon 40 Years On

Remembering John Lennon today. Forty years have flashed by. I can still hear my clock radio turning on to the incongruent sound of the Beatles on Dec. 9, 1980 and wondering why? I think about John every day. I am fortunate to have been able to make pilgrimage to Mendips, Abbey Road and Strawberry Fields, NY; to play on stages like the Cavern, the Jacaranda and the Troubadour where he performed or made trouble, or both. Here’s a quick playlist for you and me. (Just Like) Starting Over I Should Have Known Better Bless You Nobody Told Me Strawberry Fields Forever Nowhere Man Enjoy the day. Fill it with peace. Fill it with music. #JohnLennon #Liverpool

Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air - Book Review

“The Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air” is a trippy new mystery novel from Phillip Mottaz. It captures the grit and gilt of the City of Angels with the flair of a contemporary Raymond Chandler. The brisk pace and wit are reminiscent of Douglas Adams’s entries in the detective game. Flourishes of  Fletch  and “Medium” also spring to mind. However, Mottaz has added a psychic/mutant/superhuman touch and his own comedic voice, structure and internal monologues to the proceedings that help the author announce his own style and the arrival of a literary heroine for a new generation. Hairstylist and budding private investigator, Danica Luman is the perfect character to convey the irony, angst and sarcasm needed to tell a 21st century L.A. crime story. Danica also represents anyone who thought it would be neat to get tangled up in a mystery and the darkly comic cautionary tale that follows. The genre is recognizable, but Mottaz offers a fresh take on the not-ready-for-prime-ti...

Getting Better All The Time

Hey Soul Mates, long week. Thanks to everyone who sent along their best wishes for my recovery from food poisoning. I'm still creaky, but there has been a lot going on. The world keeps on spinning. Well, I finally got our ntsc (North American video) master of " A Talent For Loving " made. The original was in the pal format, so it had to be converted before it could be distributed here. As a result of several snafu's, I've upgraded my dvd drive. And thanks to KS1 Security's continuing sponsorship of the band, we have a new color photo printer! That means we can make super-pretty press kits to send out to the record labels and industry players. It's taken a long summer to get to this point. We've had several people of decent magnitude utterly flake out on us. I ain't gonna name names, but you know who you are. As a result, the band is forging ahead on its own (manufacturing our own dvd's is just the tip of the iceberg). We aim to get our music h...
