My Next Experiment

I created the possibility of making a second cd.

One afternoon while stirring spaghetti after talking on the phone with Tyler, I asked the universe for a band.

At present, I have a band.

Allie, Rebecca, Dylan, and Courtney appeared to me.
Vocals, drummers, bass guitarist, and me as lead singer and acoustic guitar.

Then I asked the universe for a free recording studio.

Tom walked into my life, winked and said, "I'll do it."

It's an experiment. We're all in it for the experiment.
Each of us has music frothing from us. Shouldn't we do something about that?


This is going to be fun.

I don't know what kind of music you sing, or, for that matter, how well you sing it...however, I appriciate the effort of all musicians (especially those armed with an accoustic guitar), and I vote for #3. Let me know when I can buy a copy!

#4 for the back

#3 for sure.

Remember me, the Montana boy living in Hawaii? We spoke on the phone oh so long ago, introduced by a mystical woman in flowing robes who serves as a protector of Lancelot. How have you been, and how is the beauty of the Rattlesnake treating you?
Keep me posted on your cd's, I would love to hear them!

You started off by saying you have a band which includes many people. All these pictures are only of you. Would they truly represent your band as a whole? Just wondering. Ryan

#1 hands down in a wraparound (left side on front, right side is the back)

Which obviously means you'd have to reverse the image.

My vote is for #1, absolutely. It's more unique than the others, I think.

I am completely biased, of course, and think that the photos are amazing...I agree that you need to use more than one. Then again, maybe you need one with a waffle in it?

Ryan,
The band is temporary, just for the recording of this cd. We won't be doing any live shows, etc. Thus, they understand that they are supporting musicians only.

You must include #3 somewhere on the CD. You look very pretty in that image!

#1 is the most unique, most visually interesting. Grabs the curiosity of the viewer.

#3 is my next choice.
