I had a request to put this on my main website, so here it is. It was inspired by Prop 8 in California. Demo only – recorded in my former garage.

Mar 13th by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingThis is what happens when I’ve got a head cold, watch too much of The Tudors, and get to thinking about countless friends and friends of friends. This might be the most depressing song I’ve written in a long time, and that counts Crucified. DO NOT READ if you’re enjoying your good mood! The music is very old British royal court (naturally) and with thanks to Thomas Wyatt….
“A Memory (Sail Away)”
I reach for you, through a strange and dirty haze
Picture with the moon, of days we’ve lost, those days we played
Your heart unto me, mine unto you, my closest friends
Until the time came to leave, as you do again
Sail away, sail away sweet laughter, just like your beautiful faces
The crowds are gone, don’t forget the rapture we shared in those places
Sail away, take with you my answers, but please to grant me some reprieve
For I can’t be all of myself if you are just a memory
I threw together a song today about the West Memphis 3 called “Justice Will Be Done.” You can download it from my MySpace page if you want. Again, sorry for the mix. I’m still learning.
Feb 26th by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingMy cousin got hit with a major cancer diagnosis in the last couple days, so I was perusing YouTube and listening to some songs that either remind me of him or I somehow connect with the love of rock and roll he helped engender in me. For the record, I refuse to accept his prognosis. As far as I’m concerned there are no time limits and no absolutes.
Feb 25th by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingI’ve been ultra inspired lately, so here’s a demo version of “Queen of Mayhem.” “Your Name,” “I’m In Love With You” and “Victim” might take a while because I have to do the piano parts myself. Don’t wait up. 
Sorry for the mix, but I was in a hurry.

Feb 15th by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingSo today my friend Sheri and I were having a laugh fest by going to Google, typing in a word or two, and taking screenshots of some of the insane suggestions Google came up with. I made an off hand remark that I could make a song out of them. So I did. Enjoy “All Searched Out!” Bing, I’m looking at you. Pay me and we’ll talk.

Nov 14th by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingHave to credit my Runaways peep Wasted for this one. She posts a magazine cover and I find a new band to follow.
Oct 21st by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingIt only took six years but I finally put music to this one. Yet another demo. Maybe someday I’ll be able to have someone record these professionally. And hopefully that person won’t be fighting a head cold too!

Oct 16th by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingDoes anyone use the word album anymore? Anyway I am impatiently waiting for the Within Temptation CD coming out in about a month. If you don’t know about WT, you should.
Oct 01st by Tribal Dancer Continue ReadingI’ve been inspired tonight. I wrote one song for my friends that gets to be given to them first, once the music is done. Then I took an old instrumental I’d saved and finally put words to it.
