Hey here's a "This Just In!" flash. Go to the "Record STore" page. I put a video up that was done for me WAY back in '87. Kind of fun to see a brown hair version of myself! Go look and listen.
Yikes, had a very busy week so sorry we had the 'Hold the Presses". Upcoming week will include the long awaited 'finishing up the first batch of tunes" for the publishing deal we (Tully Winfiield) and I have. I look forward to seeing where the tunes will land. Also "Lance" has started pre production. Fancy way of saying he met with the producer "Ty Stevens" last week, great meeting, everyone sees the project eye to eye and this week, Lance and I will pick the first three tunes to start with. We'll record basic tracks at an 'outside' studio then do our added tracks from our own studios and send those in to the main studio. After that, Lance will sing final vocals at the 'other' main studio and it will be mixed/mastered there as well. Fun and great 'doin's it just takes so much time. However!!!! It is a great age to do all this in, the access to great gear and studios has never been better or more affordable and accessable.
I was noticing the 'multi language' greeting of appreciation at the top of 'the news'. It's nice to see we are all from around the world reading our little community blog. I thought it would be nice for me to try saying something in your own language. I can say it sure looks fancy! And... I do hope it is correct and makes sense. If not, please feel free to correct me. AND if you like, send me a greeting in your language for me to add.
I went to S. Africa on tour once and heard a language called "Xhosa". Very different as it not only includes vowel sounds and consonats just like all the rest HOWEVER this added 'percussion' in the form of 'clicking' sounds. It was wonderful. I found a youtube of it. Have a look XHOSA. . (pronounced like "klowsa'
I wonder how they 'write' in the percusion in the written version of that language? I couldn't find it in the 'translator'. Perhaps the words come with a music staff and notes. Facinating language.
I had a blast when traveling through S. Korea and tried to learn a little Korean. To this day I still use it and try to be impressive when I meet someone that speaks Korean. It is a very polite culture, I know this because they smile nicely, hold back a little laugh and then say, 'that was very good'. What is it you are trying to say?"
감사합니다 = Thank you, and sounds like "Kamsamneeda" I wonder if all my mispronunciations action end up sounding perfect but in an entirely different language??!!
Like... Australian "made easy". If you want to say a polite 'hello or equal salutation'. Just talk about your "eye" and say "Good Eye". And there you have it, you just said, "good day" , see if it were only all that simple in all languages.
Anyway enough contemplation on language. "Lets Start The Day".... which in some other language translates to "Finish your coffee already, quit procrastinating and get stuff done already" LOL.
