The Boom King is Dead
... Long Live the Boom King.
Rest In Peace, Sean Taylor. Say hi to Darrent for us, now that you two are playing in God's secondary.

Desperation is a stinky perfume...
Fuck it. Deal. The three people who read this blog need to vote for my band. here are the details...
WE NEED YOUR HELP! This is big, everybody. KTCL, 93.3 fm here in Denver, has selected "Anything Left" as one of the top 35 tracks it received from hundreds of submissions. We believe it's one of the top ten tracks they've received, but we need yoru help to prove that to them.
The first leg of this journey is the online voting, which starts on Monday, and requires that you be a member of Area93, their website. Signing up is simple, and only takes about a minute, and once you're done, you never have to do it again.
You can only vote once per day, but you can vote every day, and we hope you'll consider stopping by Area93.com to vote for Anything Left once a day.
Here's how you help:
Make sure you are a member of Area93.com and get Channel 93.3 Music Surveys. Members will choose what songs get on the air and Music Survey picks the top 3 bands.
Not a member? Sign up here for Area93.com! After you sign up for Area93, you'll be redirected to the Music Survey site. Sign up on both!
Sign up for Area93 and Sign up for Music Surveys.
Once you've signed up, starting monday, PLEASE come back to the site to vote for "Anything Left" in the top 10. We've got some great competition in this thing, and really want to show what we're made of with this contest.
Thank you so much for all that you do. We love you very much. And if we become rich and famous because of this, we promise to send you a postcard.
Love,
Lazyface

Holy. Fuck.
Watch the whole thing. Seriously.
Does it have a point? No. But I'm kind of under the weather and feel like I've now gotten my fever dream out of the way. All without the inconvenience of having to leave my job and go to sleep in my bed.
Sigh.
Anything Left?
We were in the studio last night, recording what we thought would be just one song (the ever-popular "Anything Left") for a radio contest we want to enter. Ended up recording four songs total, and actually working through most of three and got Anything Left almost perfect. All in all, a very successful undertaking.
We're still going to enter Anything Left for the radio contest, but I'm more than a little impressed with our work on "The Score," a rollickin' good time of a song that has just enough dirt to make it feel pretty grungy. A true, straight-ahead rock song, if I do say so myself.
At first, I wasn't convinced that we'd have a shot in this contest. After working with Jamie at Module Overload Studios - easily the best value in town as far as recording studios go - and working through a lot more than we were expecting and still staying on-budget, and hearing the clean, clear, delectable sounds that came out, I'm fully expecting delivery into the top 20. Anything Left is THAT GOOD.
Now I feel like an asshole for blowing my own horn, but... fuck it, it's true. I'll be sure to post if we do make the top-20 so y'all can vote for the song and try to get us in regular rotation on KTCL.

Mighty Mangina Monologue
One of the coolest things I've learned about are the little subsections of blogs that link to each other throughout the internet. Despite being on seemingly different topics, all of these seem to have one or two things in common, and though they get there in different ways, I've read some pretty awesomely terrific writing through these little communities.
One of the best, and I mean this, is BlogHer. A collection of bloggers from across the country (and around the world, I would imagine) who have two things in common: a vagina, and breasts. I guess, technically, that's three things that they have in common. (Note: I do not think they share the same vagina and breasts. That would make them one person. Or maybe lesbians, I think. And then I could no longer call them, "Them," as "they" would be a singular entity. And then they wouldn't need a community, because they'd all be right there, busying themselves with their shared vagina and breasts. I need a nap) ANYWAY, I think they're terrific; they're funny, smart, interesting, apparently drink a great deal of wine (witness Not a Girl, Not Yet a Wino in the links), and possess a certain amount of awesomeness incarnate with being really, really smarmy. I truly believe that A) Leslie, she of the Librarian Intelligence Agency, should be a member, and B) coming up with something as simple and descriptive as "BlogHer" is awesome.
So then, what would we call it if I wanted to start a blog community for men? BlogHim sounds lame (and a little gay, or religious, which is ironic).
My ideas:
PenisMightier (as in, "The Pen Is Mightier." Get it?)

Your ideas in the comments. Together, we can make this shit happen.

Friends don't let friends...
...Vote Hillary.
Which is it, Hillary? I can't believe people still prefer her over anyone.
And know this: if she wins the Democratic nomination, she will lose in a general election. Period.
DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN. VOTE OBAMA.

Upon further review...
It appears my backing of Ron Paul for president in 2008 was remarkably premature. The guy claims to be a Libertarian, wanting less government interference with everyday life, but he's pro-life? Hello? It just speaks to a huge disconnect in his decision-making process.
Unreal. Back to the Obama camp for me.
I just hope he can win. Hillary scares the ever-lovin' shit out of me. Edwards seems to say all the right things, but I am nervous about his past professional career. Gravel is a crazy old coot.
Obama seems like he has such a better hold on what people want, and unlike Hillary, doesn't seem like he'll say just anything to get elected (I feel like Hillary is a soundbite machine. Annoying).
Obama. 'O8. Let's go.
