Sultans of Swing

(And the Kickstarter has been going almost a week! We’re up to $585 which is 21% of the way there!

Policy of Truth

(The Daron’s Guitar Chronicles Kickstarter has raised $355 so far! We need to get to $2,750 by May 21st to make our goal of having a printed omnibus paperback. If you haven’t donated to the site in a while, this is a great way to do so and get some nice perks and/or books for [...]

Pale Shelter

In the morning, the wake-up call came ungodly early, which was to say only about four hours after we’d gone to sleep. We were due to be on some morning drive radio show, just me and Ziggy, and he went to his room to change his clothes. Carynne went with us. A car service picked [...]

Liner Notes: #18 (and Kickstarter launch…)

Hello, everyone, Cecilia here.

Cecilia here, with a bunch of things to chat with you all about today, including: -Paypal -T-shirts/band logo -glow-in-the-dark-vinyl records!

Liner Note #16: The Days of Venus, HIV, & Brickphones

A couple of notes about recent chapters that you might find of interest. FAST AND LOOSE I played fast and loose with a couple of dates [...]

Art: Daron by Tab Kimpton

Happy Thanksgiving to US readers, and happy 3rd Thursday in November to everyone else. I’ve got one more special post to do today before regular Daron posts start again. Some of you may remember I took donations some months ago with the intention of passing them on to artists for commissions. Tab Kimpton is one [...]
