itunes

I released my debut LP "Join Us" two whole years ago and I JUST put it on itunes this week! So if you already own a copy, go buy another one. And if you don't, search me on itunes, read my bio, and if you think i might be something you could get into click "purchase." What an exciting post for today.

I'm starting to love internet communities. This new blog thing is becoming a regular hobby. Twitter is a bit of an obsession, and then theres all those other ones like Vimeo and Youtube. I also just got Google Wave today. Don't know anything about it, 'cept feel free to WAVE me sometime I guess. We can come up with a business proposal or something.

Love you!
