Sentence Structure 101: Try These Time Tested Techniques For A Healthier You!

Hi, 

Not much time to tell you all about how I’m having another great hair day! Thank god for humidity! Am I right or am I right guys?!?!??!??!

Anyway, you’ll have to come see for yourself tonight when I take the stage with none other than Jeff Litman at Arlene’s Grocery (8pm) … and then power over to Throgs Neck to a place called Rockwood Music Hall wherein super quintet Mother Feather will be impolitely melting faces at 11pm. 

Oh and speaking of me and how good you think I look since I stopped adding sugar to my coffee … imagine how happy you’ll be to see me on stage next month with Mother Feather doing an acoustic set at this cool new cafe on the Bowery called: Bowery Ballroom.

Stay tuned to Mother Feather Dot We Freakin Rock Dot Com for details.

Mwah! 

P.S. This Sunday, I’ll be playing my first full length gig on something called: The Upright Bass.

P.P.S. That’s gonna happen at 7pm I think. 

P.P.P.S. That’s gonna feature the songs of Andy Fitzpatrick. 

P.P.P.P.S. His songs are better.

Promotion 101: You May Never Finish You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger

Hi, 

Since you asked, here is what I am/was eating for breakfast:

And here is who will be eating you for dinner on July 9th:

You should get your tickets here: http://boweryballroom.com/event/6568 … before everyone else gets theirs and the website says Sold Out and then you have to go Bowery Ballroom anyway and say “isn’t there two more tickets left?” And they say “lemme see.” And then after about 2 and a half seconds they say “yeah there are two tickets left. You want both? That’ll be $30.00.” No please. No thank you. You just hand over the money and know you could’ve saved $4.00 if you had listened to me. But you never listen do you? No. That’s half you problem isn’t it? That and the company you keep. Oh yeah? That mouth of yours will get you in trouble one of these days.

In other news, there’s probably gonna be other cool announcement type announcements about the Mother Feather at Bowery Ballroom show coming up soon. So, keep holding your breath. You’ll be breathing again before you know it.

In related news, the Casey Shea band has two gigs this week. But neither of them are listed on his website. That’s on account of him having the greatest record label in the history of labels that reblog cool video clips of Louis CK in all the spare time they have not posting the gigs that THE CASEY SHEA BAND HAS THIS WEEEEEEEK!!!!!! Luckily for you you have me to tell you where to be to see this great band sing all of Casey’s great songs and one of my decent songs too. What’s that? Of yeah, he even put my song on his upcoming album. What’s that? Yeah, he’s got a new album. It’s done. I mean, the last I heard, it was done and my song was still on it. Pretty cool huh? Yeah, me too. I’ll totally tell you when it’s available so you can buy it and I’ll have a few more pennies to go towards that cottage in Misquamicut, RI. In the meantime, you’ll just have to come to the shows we’re playing this week. Actually, I’m not sure you can go to the first show. So, just ome to the second one. It’s at this place called Rockwood Music Hall. It’s kinda the same kinda place as Cafe Vivaldi, except the sound men are better looking in that there are actually sound men working at Rockwood Music Hall. And no I did not unintentionally not say Sound Person. I know what the appropriate term is but there are actually not any females working sound at Rockwood Music Hall. You’ll have to ask them if that is intentional yourself. The sound men do however have great haircuts. Especially the one who looks like Justin Bieber. Anyway, The Casey Shea Band is playing at Rockwood this Saturday at 11pm. Shocking I know. 

Mwah!

P.S. In other recording news, the great Andy Fitzpatrick will be releasing his new single this coming Monday, June 13th. 

P.P.S. I’ll tell you more about that and how I recorded my bass for the B side tomorrow. 

P.P.P.S. I just listened to my new LP copy of the album this sentence links to and I am reminded that being sixteen had it’s high points after all.

Insomnia 101: The Homeopathic Remedy

Hi, 

Since I’ve heard from a lot of people that you’ve been having trouble sleeping lately, I thought you’d appreciate this new homeopathic insomnia remedy I came across. Please note that this remedy may or may not only work today. But it’s still worth a try because like I said, everyone has been talking about you and how weird you’ve been acting on account of your lack of sleep. 

Okay, Step One: Purchase one way ticket to Provo, UT. See photo below for current flight options. 

Step Two: Walk out on to the nearest highway and stick out your RIGHT THUMB in conspicuous view of oncoming traffic. This is the international symbol for “I still think it’s 1972 and therefore assume all you people driving will understand that I am hitchhiking to a rock concert!!!!” 

Step Three: After two hours, give up hitchhiking and call a taxi cab. Since you won’t be in NYC anymore, you’ll need to give them a destination address, because that’s the way things work in rural america, so right this down: 135 North University Ave., Provo, UT, 84601 

Step Four: Use google maps to double check that UT actually stands for Utah. 

Step Five: Ask yourself “What the f@$k am I doing in Utah?”

Step Six: Tell the doorguy/girl/person at the entrance of the esteemed rock club “Velour” that you’re there to see Casey Shea. 

Step Seven: Pick up blanket and pillow as directed. 

Step Eight: I suggest you find a comfy spot closest to the soundman/woman/person because that’s usually where the mix sounds best.

Step Nine: Clap enthusiastically for Casey’s first song.

Step Ten: Apologize to the girl sleeping next to for inadvertently drooling all over her shoulder for the last 43 minutes.

Step Eleven: You can thank me for your nap later. 

Mwah!

M 

P.S. Here is a photo of the website you can go to in order to purchase tickets for the Casey Shea band’s show at Bowery Ballroom show next month! 

P.P.S. At that show, you’ll wanna ask for Wes Verhoeve when looking for the pillows and blankets.

Right now I’m wondering which is worse… still having to send faxes or knowing that entering a Staples means listening to at least two Rob Thomas songs. P.S. Speaking of wasting time… Come see me play with the Casey Shea Band tomorrow at Bowery Ballroom. P.P.S. Speaking of wasting time… Now I’m off to record synth parts for the next Rich Girls release with The Dig’s own Eric Eiser.

A short clip from “Love Is Here To Stay” at Bowery Ballroom this past Friday night.  A great moment from such a memorable night!

Big thanks to drummer extraordinaire, Dave Burnett, for capturing a bit of the cell phone magic from behind the drum set.

Advertising 101: Soldier Boys And Jesus Freaks

Hi, 

I finally paused Noel Gallagher’s infinitely repeating new album long enough to watch the second most awesome video ever: 

In related news, if you’ve been wondering how to financially profit off of other people’s silly protest efforts, then look no further than our good friend Jay-Z, and our guardian angels over at Muzak Television, by clicking on this part of this sentence. 

And speaking of feeling completely marginalized by the liberal media, don’t forget to buy your tickets for The Casey Shea Band’s performance at Bowery Ballroom on December 15th. I know the Bowery website kinda makes it look like we’re the opening act, but we in the camp of DOMINATION choose to view the lineup as an homage to the great Ralph Ellison who of course wrote that “the end is in the beginning and lies far ahead“ about a completely unrelated subject. 

And since December 15th is so far away, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll also have an opportunity to compliment me on my age defying hair follicles when Mother Feather takes the stage at Rockwood Music Hall this Friday, November 18th. We’ll take the stage at around midnight. And since you’ll be saving so much money by not having to buy a ticket to the show I’m sure you’ll do you part to support all the things you claim to support by purchasing a CD or a T-shirt. I say I’m sure because I know you’re a good person. See? You wouldn’t want me to think you were a not good person would you? Good. See you Friday! 

BTW, did I tell you how good Noel Gallagher’s new album is? 

Mwah!
