Daddy Was a Conman

My Dad wasn't a conman! He was an upstanding fellow, quite earnest. Sometimes the joke of the song is just how big a whopping lie it is. I may be a conman, but not my Dad. I think I wrote this on the piano, forgot how to play it, then figured it out differently on the guitar. I'm pleased that it communicates a couple specific grafts in two verses and a couple more in the bridge.

Pennies From Hell

So I intend to put together a band which will also appear in a youtube Soap Opera, called Pennies From Hell. Knew I'd need a title song, came up with this. It's based on a short story I wrote for a band program. Hot pennies up from the ground. In the soap opera they'll be a drug delivery system.




I wanted to say "...Hanging out on building tops/you want it to end but it never stops..." because the syllables worked better. Only problem, there's no such thing as "building tops." They're rooftops. Tried to apply my poetic license, but it would have been revoked. So now it's rooftops.

Is it a metaphor for something? Maybe in the bridge.

You don't need any pennies! This song is FREE!

Pennies, dollars, Lamborghinis, whatever you're willing to donate, I'll take it!

Staying All Night Long

Party anthem as warning as crosswise seduction. I think this was the opening number the night I played Freddy's that night. Which belies the whole this is one show called Summer's Gone, but I've given up that game a while ago. Got a bunch of live stuff and here's where I'm sticking it.I'd be more careful about where I stick this, but then I'll lose track, so I'm just doing everything in reverse order, and here we are in the order. Never let the perfect be the enemy of the done!




Sometimes I guess it's called "All Night Long" and sometimes it's "Staying All Night Long" and I'm sure at others it's "I'm Staying All Night Long." I should pick one, and I probably don't want to butt heads with the great Lionel Ritchie.

How you take this song depends on how well you'd receive me turning up ready to stay up all night long, and possibly trying to sleep with you.

I'm asking for money all night long. All the songs are free, but the artist accepts tips!

Death's Dog

Been a while since I've posted to this, got to get it regular. This a blogum, not a blEP.

This song will be fleshed out (if you can flesh out a skeletal dog) on my next album, ...and Now This. I'm pleased with how it works with spooky effects.

This was for Dave Benjoya's birthday party. Thought it'd be an amusing song to play. Hope he was amused.
