| DeanMail: November 2010 - Gobble, Gobble... | ||||||||
Hi Folks, If you're reading this, a humungous solar flare hasn't wiped out Earth's electrical/digital infrastructure with a massive electromagnetic pulse... yet. So, we all have a lot to be thankful for...
Here's a little animation I did a while back... CLICK HERE if you're feeling thankful Personally, I'd like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Bartolomeo Cristofori di Francesco (1655 - 1731) for inventing the piano. Without his remarkable contribution, my modest song catalogue might be only have its size, but much worse, techniques for squashing cartoon characters would have been severely limited to a paltry assortment of safes and anvils. There's lots more to be thankful for, such as the US Fed's recent announcement that they'll be increasing US money supply to the tune of $600 billion. (Now that's a tune I can hum along to! Wish I'd written it) At first, I was puzzled as to how this is actually done. Apparently, it's accomplished via a technique called quantitative easing or QE2. Nothing to do with the Queen or the ocean liner. And while we're off the subject, mazel-tov to Prince William and his lovely intended, Kate, on their pending nuptials. (In retrospect, by comparison, we should all be thankful for the inlaws we have.;-) Anyway, quantitative easing is sort of like adding water to the booze in your parents' liquor cabinet (or oregano to their stash) to keep them from finding out you were sampling their wares, while they were out. Sometimes, this actually works. -------------------------------------------------------- Is that a banana in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? Many of you know that for the past 30 years I've been living with a small, capuchin monkey named Amelia. Curiously, she prefers avocados to bananas. Well, this coming weekend, Friday and Saturday, November 26 & 27, 8pm, I'll be playing support for an honest-to-goodness, Monkee! That's right, I'm opening for Peter Tork & his band, the Blue Suede Shoes at the Record Collector - 'Living Room Series' in Bordentown, NJ. It should be fun. Info & tickets in the GIG section of www.deanfriedman.com . Hope to see some of you there. --------------------------------------------------------
For those of you who prefer bits and bytes, the new album, 'Submarine Races' is now available for download via my website in both .wav or .mp3 audio formats. To download the new album, just click on the 'ALBUM DOWNLOADS' link in the top left corner of my home page: www.deanfriedman.com [note: if you already have your copy of the new album, email me your review and I'll post 'em online.] -------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile, as promised from stage every
night on the recent tour, I've finally updated my website so that anyone
that purchased
And if you didn't happen to pick up your own pick on the recent tour, you can still order one online and, once you receive it, you too will receive a 10% discount on all future CD/merch orders via my website. Oh yeah, and it comes in it's own snazzy li'l handy-dandy carrying case! (see above) How cool is that!? ;-) [NOTE: Place your orders before December 1st to guarantee delivery for the upcoming holidays.] So, anyway, I know you're all busy doing whatever it is you do, so I'll wind this missive down. I'll sign off with a track from the new album, 'Submarine Races', which is kinda appropriate to the topic of this Thanksgiving season. Nothing to do with turkeys, cranberries or pumpkin pie... Click here to hear: 'I'm a Lucky Guy' Thanks for listening. All the best and don't eat too much stuffing!
Deano
