Good to finally hear from you Brother. I hope you don't continue to read along and not join in. Do you have any new songs posted the Old Dog can pick over and give you a soft critique??? Ha!!! Truly, I really like your songs and the background instruments you add to them.

Ha, I am keeping all my songs secret from you! Just kidding, your reviews are always helpful and honest. I have just been doing more "quirky" tunes lately (maybe I always have!). I'll post something when I have something to add to the conversation.
Like when we are in the "pick on Ott" mode (ha, ha). I guess Ott is a bit like me, we sail in the direction we want to go no matter the prevailing winds. The difference might be that I am 100% opposed to spending any money on demos, I agree with MAB on this one. If there is no recording artist involved in the write, then what is the point except to spend money. If I can sing and play on my own recordings, then anyone can -- unless they are tonally/rhymically super-challenged (and there are a few out there like that). It took me quite awhile to learn to sing in-key lead vocals (and for harmony stuff I just use melodyne!).
