“Hangin’ around, nothing to do but frown…”

I finally got me a little workshop! Nothing fancy, but I can tinker, work on guitars, and explore some creative work. I want to try leather work and make guitar straps. Or whatever.

Yes. Yes, they are.

That they were.

Canada is firing up the machine, and we need all musicians to sign this. Let's hope we can shake things up. Americans, you need to listen to this speech. Listen carefully. I love the line, "It is time for companies and countries to take their signs down." bursttheirbubble.ca

Oh no!

With AI, poor streaming pay, venues closing, low pay, and plain old disrespect, we need something to keep the arts alive. Let’s get behind this. Check out my article on Substack. Link in the bio.

Stand up for yourselves! If you’re a musician that’ll take the gig for what you know is unfair, then you’re part of the problem.

I’ve added a song to my set. I think this is the ultimate protest song. Should I start or end the set with Chumbawumba’s The Day The Nazi Died?

Where’s all the Protest songs? Now’s the time fellow songwriters, buskers, big stars, small stars, let’s sing it out loud! There’s still some of you touring in the U.S., so sing them a few songs about what the world thinks of them.

I’m just gonna bomb you folks with photos of my amaryllis every time a new shoot appears.

Never reaching the end…

The amaryllis is looking great! We have six shoots so far!

See, we can make stuff up too!

It’s a circus out there and it’s entirely the fault of The United States. We will not let your circus into any country! youtu.be/0V8pk9HHd2g?...

Way to go Australia! Get back to your shit hole country you MAGAt!!

Yes we are.

Read it and weep, U.S. What else can you expect? You folks need to come up with a drastic plan.

Let’s start hearing some protest and political songs calling out the fascists in the U.S.! I have a few, and this one is called, They Won’t Take Us Alive. youtu.be/9RNpgq0oZBo?...

That’ll learn ya!
