myspace = your x-mas music place

I took the liberty of uploading a few of period comma's renditions of classic Christmas songs to thir myspace page. All songs are based on the birth of the alleged Jesus Christ.

The band would appreciate you downloading them to be included in your holiday music mixes.

Please visit: www.myspace.com/periodcomma for the 4 songs: We 3 Kinks, The Little Drummer Boy, Hark The Herald Angels and Silent Night.

Enjoy - thank you

The Protagonist Visits The Antagonist

I represented the band 'period comma' at the Niagara in the east village the other night. Getting there in a customized snow storm that I know was created to keep me out, was a journey all its own. Therefore, I am claiming 'protagonist' stature in that I ventured on nonetheless to play at the Antagonist Movement's promoted art show and music evening.

Once in the city, I knew it'd be a normal city night. There was no snow, only rain and slippery sidewalks, hardly enough to keep anyone indoors.

The tikki room at the Niagara is where the events took place. One room had an art show of emerging artists and the other contained Dee Jay and live music. I played the first set and it was cool; I always hate going on first - but what the hell. I haven't played a full set of music on my own in quite a while - so again, what the hell. It was fun and I gave away a few Cd's.

All in all, a Thursday night with The Antagonist Movement is something I would recommend to anyone starting out in the field of music or art. The energy created by the artists and the attendance was great.

Tomorrow Never Knows

Is it the 12th already? Really looking forward to playing at the Niagara tomorrow night. Don't know what to expect. I made a few give-away cd's for whoever has the guts to take them.

Stutterdot Design is really branching out in the world of visual/audio. Maybe it's a premonition for my next life to become a nerd-like creature for a future high school somewhere that lives in the dark corners of the A/V room.

Anyway - hope there are witnesses to the event.

Thank you Antagonist Movement for the invite. Click the link to the right for more info on them.

period comma - solo performance on Decemebr 13

It's good to get out. Many folks don't know I'm the songwriter for the pop combo 'period comma'. Yes, a ghost writer. So my question to you: do you believe in ghosts? I'm hoping you do so you'll come check out my solo performance at the Niagara on DECEMBER 13 - 9pm SHARP.

The music is one aspect of the evening. There will also be a visual show from various emerging artists. I'm really looking forward to it. The producers of this art and music happening is the Antagonist's Movement. Please visit their website to find out more about them.

I'll be playing a 45 minute set from the band's Lily Still CD and a yet to be release titled 'beyond simple'. I'll throw in a few songs from David Lynch films as well.
