Lady A’s Muu Muu – Last Session I Think
[UPDATE: I’m calling that mostly done, should be able to release it by the end of this week. I have one other tiny thing I’d like to do, and of course there is always room for tweaking the mix and such. If you missed it today or any other day and you just can’t live without the opportunity to look at the back of my head for long stretches of time, you can always watch them non-live on my Ustream show page.]
I don’t want to crap up the arrangement too much because I like this one nice and simple, but I’m going to try some backing vocals today, tweak the drum part, and mess a bit with the mix. Watch above if you dare.
Ukes in San Fran
If you play ukulele and are coming to the show in SF on February 22, please email me. I’d like to talk to you about something.
A Non-Political Plug
I can’t make it this year, but I have some musical friends who will be there (and who are on the fund raiser CD). MarsCon: check it! The text below is directly from the (e-)mouth of The Great Luke Ski:
It’s a 2-CD set full live concert tracks from MarsCon 2007 (including Sudden Death, Worm Quartet, the great Luke Ski, Possible Oscar, Rob Balder, Carrie Dahlby, The Gothsicles, Power Salad, Ookla The Mok, Carla Ulbrich, and more) and two new studio bonus tracks by MarsCon 2008 performers PAUL & STORM & Hot Waffles! And when you order the CDs, you also get a link to download the tracks on MP3! The funds raised will go towards the hotel costs of the MarsCon 2008 Dementia Track performers. For the full track listing and ordering info, follow this link!

I Don’t Like to Make Political Statements…
…as you all know. And yet, there is this: I support Barack Obama and so should you.
So many people have already written and spoken about him far more eloquently than I could hope to do myself, so I won’t talk about his integrity, his inspiring message, his real commitment to change. Because here is the thing that matters to us here in this little circle of monkey-, robot- and mad-scientist-lovers: he a geek’s candidate. If you understand why network neutrality is important, if you can imagine how transparency and connectivity might improve our Democracy, if you think it’s sort of important that the people who run this country know something about computers and the internet, then you have no business backing anybody else. Obama understands these issues in the way that geeks understand them.
If you are not convinced by all the intelligent and forward thinking people around the internet who are also Obama fans (John Hodgman, David Rees of Get Your War On, Randall Munroe of xkcd, Andy Baio of Waxy.org, Lawrence Lessig of Lawrence Lessig, I could go on and on), then I must deploy the superweapon.
Do as I say: vote for Obama.
