Y'all's! We've had a quiet winter, but now we're back!

We're coming the Cannonball Music Hall in Raleigh for the first time, and we couldn't be more excited. Even more so because we'll be joined by our good friends @rafaelgreenmusic and @islandmoons . Show starts at 8, but feel free to come early for a bite to eat and a cool hang. Check the comments for a link to tickets if you want to make sure and have a spot saved!

I absolutely blame Facebook for this shift. Words cannot describe how freaking WEIRD it was in the mid-00s when there was suddenly this popular website where you were required to use your real, brickspace name and encouraged to post photos of yourself.

Agreed, though I know for myself, I took the route of using a performance name anyway. Even in rickspace, I've pretty well mixed my government name and my stage name to the point that a lot of people don't really know which one is "correct" and mostly no one cares. Stay weird.

Saying he is willing to do all the hard work necessary to succeed in the music business, local teenager and aspiring recording artist Morgan Reyes told reporters Sunday that he is in his garage every day crafting a widely marketable persona in hopes of one day winning a Grammy Award. “It’s always been my dream to win a Grammy, and I know that if I just put in the hours and tailor myself into a charismatic pop star with broad cross-market allure, I can make it happen,” said Reyes, 16, adding that the time he spends in the garage both after school and on weekends is the sacrifice required to develop a personality as magnetic, yet approachable, as all his musical heroes.

In an attempt to curb impulsive purchases made in periods of deep emotional distress, music store chain Guitar Center announced Thursday that it had instituted a 72-hour waiting period for all customers. “Owning a guitar is a huge responsibility, and the last thing we want is for these instruments to fall into the wrong hands,” said Guitar Center CEO Gabe Dalporto, who added that the mandatory cooling-off period was an easy, proven way to prevent customers from purchasing acoustic or electric guitars, basses, or keyboards and ultimately doing something they would regret forever.

I am so torn between how funny this legitimately is and the knee jerk nerd need to point out how that's almost all they did.

Y'all's! It's December, which means Christmas music all over the place. I say add one more to the pile, because what the world needs is more Christmas songs in F sharp.
