List of Demands...
At my last Joplin 'In Sleep I Travel' performance, I was pleased to debut nearly a half an hour of brand new material. One of those songs was 500 days. Another that caught everyone by surprise (including me when the audience began singing along), is a cover I did of Saul Williams' List of Demands. Saul has been infinitely inspiring to me since I first caught wind of him from the New Orleans' Voodoofest post Hurricane Katrina, and hopefully, maybe a few people will get a bit of the inspiration that I got from the original.
I look at it in a way as a bookend to an era of ISIT, one that began in 2006 with the song Dead or Free (which I released into the Public Domain btw.) Moving forward, I'd suspect we'll be seeing actual records and more focus on compositions that rest alongside other projects. I'll have plenty of time to get my rock and roll off drumming in my other band, Create.Escape.
I'm in the process of re-integrating and re-building the website proper, and making it easy for people who just want music to just get music info and people who just want art to just get art and comic info. (of course, those of you who enjoy both get the real treat!) I'll be keeping this blog updated at LEAST once a week until then. Tuesday has been my day, but this Tuesday I'll be on the road to Austin, TX, so I'll aim for Thursday.
Much love and thanks to all!
