Marc Weeklies: Cat Lovers Anonymous for Men

I type little, me say.

Sorry. Hurt my right hand a few days ago. So not typing much. Happily most of this was already compiled. Have a great week.


This Week:

-- Quote of the Week: "People aren't as dumb as you wanna think they are. They want something that's real, something of value." - Harvey Keitel as a record producer talking to the owner of a record label in That's the Way of the World (1975).

-- CD of the Week: Dr. Horrible Soundtrack. It's now on iTunes.

-- Movie of the Week: Waking Ned Devine. One of my favorite movies about two old guys in Ireland who try to soften up to the local lottery winner.

-- I'm Not the Only Man Who Loves Cats. Cara shares this great article in the NY Times. Yeah, but do those guys Sing about their cats??? (probably...;)

-- Hear My Music on: ZimmCast, I Still Get Demented Podcast, Homecast Show, My Baby Monsters, and "Don't Go Drinking with Hobbits is on TheFump.com. Join TheFump and post your comments. Oh and a new video on YouTube from A Long Expected Party.

-- Help Me Get Rid of Some DVDs. I'm moving and have stuff to get rid of. Wanna get some schtuff cheap? Keep an eye on my merch page. And speaking of which, there are only a few more Bards T-Shirts still available for sale, mostly 2XL-5XL sizes.

-- Celtic Music Reviews. Want your Celtic CD reviewed? Talk to Mike!

-- Earn a Part-Time Income Selling Celtic CDs. I got an email a few days ago from a friend who sponsored Whiskers in the Jar. She shared it with some friends who loved the album. Since she had several extra copies she asked if she could resell them. The simple answer is yes, but it raises an interesting point. Mage Records sell its artists CDs wholesale through the link above. You are always welcome to buy from there and resell albums to your friends, at festivals, social gatherings whatever. What a cool way to earn a part-time income reselling CDs.

-- UPCOMING GIGS. The Brobdingnagian Bards are in Austin this weekend for the Browncoat Ball. If you love Firefly like I do, be there! Tickets are still available.

-- The following weekend I have two shows, starting with Another of Space Madness at Elysium! Hear geeky, spaced out songs performed by yours truly on Friday. Then on Sunday, I play Pawstock.

-- Wine and Whiskey Tasting at Louisiana Renaissance Festival. If you want an incredible experience at LARF, sign up now for the Wine and Whiskey Tastings. You will learn a ton about the drinks, PLUS, you'll hear a few songs for me. Right now, this is the only show I have at the festival. However, I am hoping to score more. Time will tell.

-- Celtic Invasion of Italy. I haven't even solidified the trip, and it is already sold out. Sign up to the mailing list to find out more about the trip and to get on the waiting list.

-- Check me out on Myspace, SoundClick, Demand a Show on Eventful, Wikipedia, Twitter, Facebook, Livejournal, Sonicbids, and DeviantArt. And if you'd like a CD...
