Missed a couple of release anniversaries recently, so I'm catching up. First...earlier this month marked 4 years since the release of Naughty and Nice: The Holiday Singles w/ "It's Christmas Time Again" & "Merry War on Christmas," inspired by the 2015 Starbucks red cup "scandal."

I feel like we told Trump and MAGA to get back into line yesterday.

And it reminded me that I need to eventually record this song properly. So far, I'm 0-for-2 on "studio" releases. This stripped-down live version is probably the best one I have...

I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, but I've spent a good amount of time this week recording a demo of a cover of "Ride Like the Wind" by Christopher Cross. That song was my jam in third grade. Definitely recording the backing vocals like this, though...

As I say in this piece, I'm not sure I go ahead with launching this music project if Lazlo didn't encourage me after I mentioned the idea in a tweet years ago. Happy 25th to @blowupradio.gardenstate.social.ap.brid.gy & thanks for supporting me and so many NJ artists...

Been doing a few run-throughs of my @blowupradio.gardenstate.social.ap.brid.gy Banding Together live set & realized the backing tracks I recorded are at faster tempos than the original versions...so I'm way under my time limit. Do I quickly throw in a cover?
