NewJackCity : Village Gets an Idiot...

Jamie - lottsa laughs brother - I'm gonna send you a song off-line that I wrote before 9/11 about what you do called Heroes....as long as you promise not to laugh at my ~not great~production from the 'olden days'Mark - Enjoyed your supercool tunes man. Whoever's singin' on most sounds kinda like Traveling Wilburys/Petty/Dylan; which is bad ass in my book. Anytime somebody says I soundlike Cornell I get the biggest uncontrollable grin - whatta compliment. I actually joined Taxito find writing partners and hopefully, eventually find a permanent music partner/player/singer, ala McCartney/Lennon, Stanley/Cantrell etc. That's why I'm so psych'dup about the Rally! ....anyways would be honored, if the opportunity presents itself but I'm not smart on how thatworks long distance so you'll have to [try ; - ] & make me smart on that.Bryan - Dude, your orchestration is beautiful and appreciate such a warm welcome from such jedi level players.....I'll actually be leavin' here [Guam] in Oct and comin' to New Orleans for about 9 or 10 months before I retire....So very much lookin' forward to eatin' some Crawdaddy's, catchin' some bands on tha Quarter and Le fait de mener la bonne vie (Livin' the good life)...Hope to see you there but if not maybe at the Rally.Thanks everybody for warm reception!

Thanks Jeff, Really means a lot brother. I so much appreciate you takin' the time to help me on my Instrumental stuff, and I know you guys do that a lot here so it might not seem like a big deal but it's HUGE to me. Almost embarrassed to say that all those track were recorded in a garage...<grin> It was about a thousand degrees, the guitarist wife would let their cat in there sometimes and thatthing loved to crap right behind my amp and recording gear EVERY DAY...so before we could start we'd have to find it, clean it up, smell-good the place down a bit - Humble beginningsto say the least. My main goal was to capture a LIVE, RAW sound - and I got pretty close, butafter listening to all ya'll's music it definitely helped me understand that if it's a great song itNEEDS great production...and I'm just not there yet.
