landscape

lakes with people!
12-year-old child was one of many interesting people

slightly more than 3 months
Travel ideas: YouTube Playlist
very busy online
thumb pianos: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mbira
looks like a full piano to Doug
What about trip logistics?
go with the feeling.
you can clean yourself in a lake! ...says Tom
“no planning”
...well, some because of family, but very little
Do you plan to do it again?
Yes...in some respect
Accordions are big to!
In reality, the new album is an old one! Was originally planned for release in 2011.
Upcoming album will have the singles
Spotify?
onerpm...it’s free! (some stuff that is)
https://www.onerpm.com
at some point will just decide to release
working on lots of stuff!
“I dig it”
basically just him and his wife
not super-social as far as musical collaboration
sometimes he does commission work, which is like a collaboration
a theater piece is a collaboration. Music is one part and theater is the other
outgoing track: Petrified - CC BY-NC
lots of improv
morse code!
crucial moment for life of protagonist
lyrics came through improv!
“When I was young, I was petrified”
reminds Doug of “I Will Survive”...for obvious reasons. Really, it reminds Doug of the Cake version.
