per_soloHead hurts, but that's because I've had WAY too much chocolate today, and spent a LONG time in the Hot Tub.
Today was a fondue party, thrown at the sorta last minute, and a bunch of hang time with people.
Also listened to Tom's new CD in the car again.
Quick review..if you like fun music, and superheroes, then you should listen to it. It's a theme album (Which makes me put it right up there with Kiss' "Music from the Elder", the most hated Kiss album in the world, which I personally love). The story works, it flows...I'd love to see it as either a comic, or an animated film.
Tom also does a fun thing at the end, that I first noticed with his previous album...there are bonus tracks, where he talks about how a song was created, why this version wasn't on the album proper, and a whole bunch of other "fun" bits. Including a "final thoughts" bit. Getting these fun little excerpts into why he did what he did is a fun addition to the disc.
Now, realize..there is very little filk I listen to..Tom's I'll pimp any day, as he has fun with it..yes, he has a few that cause you to want to rip your heart out, BUT, the majority is showing how much fun he has with his music.
So, let me know if you may be interested in this...if you want, go to http://www.tomsmithonline.com OR come to InConJunction. :-P
Now, I need to get ready for bed...first day of work tomorrow, and yes, I've been concerned, but really, I'm looking forward to it. Had to laugh at a comment Bear made...about how he almost made a script to do the job I'm doing...and when Koala started talking about Batch Files...yeah, I'm already trying to think of how to make the job go quicker, but really, what does that do for me? Get me out of there quicker? Um...yeah. Now, I'm not going to drag my feet, but I'm also not going to make it go quicker than the timetable they think they have for it..unless there's a position I think I'd fit in better at this company, which I'm not 100% sure on.
So, who knows if I'll be able to contact folks tomorrow during business hours..

Date: 2006-05-30 02:21 am (UTC)Oh, fun story...at one of the filk tables in the dealer's room (NOT Juanita's), a guy was asking the dealer about a concept he'd heard you'd done..he started describing it..the dealer hadn't a clue, and I was able to chime in that you knew the fans were interested in it. He was describing the Rocky Horror Muppet Show. :-) I explained how busy you were, but knew that fans were wishing upon a star, and he could read it at your website. The dealer looked...oh, a little annoyed that I was able to answer the questions, but oh well.
