Late Nights In L.A.

Whew, like John Lennon said: I'm so tired. But I've never been better!
It's been a Hard Day's Week. The return however is worth it.
Lots of OT at the studio. Walked past Jack Black on lunch. Hardly recognized him with blond hair.

Some of you may know via myspace that my producer
Adam Marsland has been nominated in half a dozen categories for Grammy nominations. It's the step before the actually announced Nominations. I'm really happy for him. His LP, Long Promised Road: Songs of Carl & Dennis Wilson Live is impressive. It's actually credited to Adam Marsland's Chaos Band, so if you are a NARAS voter, consider them (and Dennis Wilson) in all applicable categories.

Sleep (or nap) beckons.

And The Nominees May Be...

Wait til next year!
For my tour. And the Tribe. Oh well.

I've been working overtime and lots of it getting the CD ready for pressing. I'm almost satisfied with the artwork. Simplify has become my mantra.

The mailman brought my Grammy nomination ballot. There are a gazillion nominees to choose from in each category. I've narrowed my choices for album of the year and record of the year. I've been gushing to anyone who'll listen about my favorite discs for the past 10 months. It's been a great year for music. This is still the nominating phase. Pick 5 to move on in the category. Once again though, I'm having trouble with song of the year and the whole R&B field. I'm proud to be a voting member, don't get me wrong. I take it quite seriously. Maybe too much, my friend Dr Rahuna would say.

OK here's today's laugh till your sides hurt then laugh some more link, courtesy of Dr Rahuna. It's got to do with Halloween and those nutty Germans. Remember "Cracked" magazine? It was a second cousin to MAD. They've gone on-line and NC-17 so this is not suitable for all audiences, but it's funny as all get out. Get Cracked and check out the
