“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars …
Kitchen Door, a Buffalo Tom Song usually sung by Chris Colbourn. But I have some assistance from Will. Sorry for the cutesyness.Will gets cut off on the blog screen ratio. I would go watch on Youtube for the complete effect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXrlq65CEIo [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXrlq65CEIo?fs=1] While we are on Buffalo Tom covers, here is one by the band …
I took a stab at a theme for a new TV show. No go. Some might recall I did the theme song for “Yes Dear” some years back. So, here are two demo versions of the newest attempt at network-TV-paycheck glory, rejected, alas! Anyone else out there want to buy one? Rock Me Daddy-O I …
