Wednesday, May 24, 2006Recording with Mystery Producer, Going to England, but not with Robert Englund. Hi,
Woah! Been a while eh? Let's not get any more comments about work ethic, 'cause the proof's right here in this pudding. I don't work hard on blogs. So what's new is that I am going to be recording very shortly. What's been taking so long is that there is a special someone coming in to produce this album and it's been taking quite some time to figure out. At first it looked like he was doing it for sure, then like he maybe couldn't, now looks like for sure. In any case, I'm excited to work with this man. He is a phenomenal guitar player, and great producer. Projects in which he has worked include: The Arc Angels, Bob Dylan, Lucinda Williams, Los Super Seven, and more. He's also a handsome devil. I want to see if you can figure out who it is. I would just tell you, but I feel like I will jinx the thing if I do. So try to guess and pipe in here or on myspace, or yell it out the window. There are too many options these days. We are getting into the studio this summer for sure and it will be the soul record I have always wanted to make. I can't wait. There won't be too many shows to speak of this summer because of the recording. Sorry. Come to the Rivoli in Toronto on June 22 though if you can, and looks like a show in Ottawa at Maverick's on June 30th with the Burt Neilson Band. Good times for sure. Also, guvnas, I am going to play solo across the pond in London, England for three shows at the beginning of June. Check the site and myspace for details. I must say, I am very excited. The only other time I was in London was in grade 10 for a class trip. I ran across the street at one point, nearly being struck by a double decker bus. Mr. Newman yelled, "IDIOT!!!" He already had a major hate-on for me, telling me I was queer for wearing a baseball cap on the plane and playing volleyball (not on the plane, but for the school team). I should have told him to go fly a kite at the time, but I was probably already planning my campaign to run for student body president the next year (in Quebec, grade 11 is senior year; one then goes on to CEGEP, two years between high school and University) and so I think I just kissed his butt and agreed that I was, in fact, a weirdo and an idiot. I guess it's possible that I may share the stage with Ron Sexsmith there in London, as he is playing the Bloomsbury theatre on the 7th and said that he'd try to get me on the bill. That would be neato to say the least. This weekend I'll be sitting in with the Joel Plaskett Emergency on Keys and 2nd guitar! Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal. I can't wait to see that guy. He's been touring his butt off and will be kicking butts as well. I'm gonna go now, Keep it real and read the latest issue of Wax Poetics. It's got Bill Withers on the cover and a great interview. You may have thought, as I did, that Bill was no longer with us, but he ain't not. He's just been keeping keeping-on like I had hoped he might be, being a normal guy. Mr Newman, go fly a kite.
