I’m trying to wind down and go to bed after an action-packed weekend. A quick summary: checked out a few NXNE shows (my friends Schomberg Fair & Emma-Lee, The Stills, The Most Serene Republic, Elliot Brood, Ghost Bees…just to name a few), shot a music video for Hands, and watched the new episode of True Blood .

We filmed footage of me in front of a green screen all day Saturday. The video will be a mix of live action and animation. The talented Randy Young will be animating the story based on my artwork. It will take some time to complete in post-production, so be patient friends.

Here’s a quick preview of the video shoot in pictures.

I designed the cutest tee’s for ladies and they are in the process of being printed. They’ll be for sale in two weeks for a measley $20 each. A small price to pay for extreme cuteness and MEGA popularity with the boys.

And ten years later, consumers still have all those lovely perks. Napster ate it (thanks, Metallica!), but Kazaa sprang from its ashes. Then there was Limewire and its cadre. Due props to Apple for monetizing the system as it stood when the iTunes store came on the scene, but users are now ridiculously entitled about what kinds of readily available (a.k.a. easily stolen) files they are willing to pay for and their justifications for stealing media. Yet musicians, as much as they’ve tried to adapt, are still getting screwed by the Internet and their fans.
