Kinesiology 101: Vote For Mother Feather at nyc.thedelimagazine.com
Hi,
Today I don’t have a lot of time so I’m gonna do this thing called “cut and paste” with an email I got this morning from one Ann Courtney. You should read it and follow the directions. Because I said so.
“I’ll say it. Most of these year-end “best of” lists decided by “tastemakers” are whack.
Power to the people! The Deli Magazine is putting you in charge of voting for your favorite emerging NYC artist of 2011. Mother Feather is in good company on this list of nominees. If we win the most votes they’ll stick our pretty mugs on the cover of the spring issue and you’ll be able to read about us in any rehearsal space bathroom in the five boroughs! I. WANT. THIS. And I don’t deal well with disappointment.
We have a ton of exciting sh!t in the pipeline. I’ll keep you posted. In the meantime…vote, motherfeather!

In unrelated news, I’m pretty sure you can buy tickets for the February 10th Mother Feather show at Mercury Lounge starting tomorrow. You should remember to do that.
In the meantime, you can come down to Rockwood Muzak Hall tonight when I’ll be demonstraing how at 30somethingorother years old I have, to quote my new doctor, Dr. Jonnie, “the blood pressure of a teenager and the pulse of a professional athlete” by playing the 7pm set with one of my favorite singers, the indestructible Kris Gruen, and then running back to The Nunnery to drop of the double bass I use to play with Kris and pick up my electric bass and go back to Rockwood to play in the 9pm set with someone named “Shwa,” whose claim to fame of course is that the former drummer from Cinderella played on his album Chop Chop.
Cinderalla is the first band I ever saw. And I still think this song totally rocks and if they ever need a bass player I would totally play with them for at least, oh I don’t know, $100 a show and maybe 25 per rehearsal if they can swing it.
Lastly, for all you insomniacs out there, The Casey Shea band will be simultaneously putting everyone to sleep and earning me some live performance songwriter royalties tomorrow night at Madison Square Garden. See you there.
Mwah!

P.S. The new Casey Shea album “In Your Head” is conveniently located at places where people buy albums.
P.P.S. It’s also available as a record record, meaning an LP, or vinyl if you’re nasty.
P.P.P.S. He promised me that if I got a lot of people to buy it, he would retire next year.
