Prelude

Excerpt of a short conversation at last weekend’s PSO chamber concert, between Sara and a female patron who had brought her young son:

Patron: My son was sure he wouldn’t enjoy this concert; so in order to get him to come, I had to agree to let him bring a book AND wear jeans.

Sara: Yeah, I had to agree to very similar conditions last week.

Patron: Oh, you have children?

Sara: No, a husband.

cool, thanks for writing.

i’ve been looping your cover of Rainbow Connection (to my wife’s eventual dismay)–it’s a somewhat addictive tune. hey, as long as i’ve got your attention… why did you reverse the first two verses? (the lyrics sorta don’t make sense the way you’ve got them.)

i admit, i didn’t buy the whole album, but i did check out some of your other clips and i dig them; it’s like Radiohead meets Wheatus. anyway, keep up the good music, and thanks for the note!

Ha! I didn’t mix up the verses, it’s more like the pre-choruses and you are the first person EVER to catch it. I wish I had a good reason “why” but it was a mistake that I left in to make the cover a little different. Crazy musicians! Anyway, listen for my songs on The Real World Austin if you can stomach watching. They’ve used it like 7 times so far.

Thanks for supporting DT!

sweet! hah, i’m glad i was paying attention.

actually, i agree that the lyric mix-up is cool (”keepin’ it real” ); i’m glad you decided to leave it in there.

hmm, i’m not sure i can justify watching TRW-Austin… how about if i just listen on my iPod instead?

(oh, and btw, i’ll be mentioning you in another, upcoming blog entry…)
