so i finally gave in to conformity and got my myspace page up. it doesn't have any newer songs up yet, and i can't find my cds from my secular recording session, so for now it's 3 christian songs and a really cheesy secular song. i hope secular doesn't carry a negative connotation with you. i use it to mean "not explicitly written about God." there are a lot of things that inspire me to write, whether it be love, frustration, heartbreak, other people, spirituality, whatever. the coolest thing about myspace so far is reading john mayer's blog. he's playing shows at eddie's attic this week. that's gotta be a good feeling for him to go back where he started, just him, an acoustic guitar, and his old bass player and long-time friend.
not that i expect you to, but if you were interested in making me really happy, you could do so by buying me one of the following items. i'm broke due to my own stupidity, fast driving, disorganization, and some things that happened this summer, so little things make me smile.
CDs
(in no particular order, i just type them as they come to me or i see them in the bmg catalog)
1. any nick drake album. sure they'll just depress me more, but he's incredible
2. any jeff buckley album (other than "grace" or "live at sin-e" because i own those).
3. any derek webb album (the songs he wrote for caedmon's call have always been my favorites).
4. the best of shel siverstein (it's a cd, i'd love his books too though)
5. travis "singles" (they were supposed to be the next oasis, coldplay did that instead)
6. jeremy camp "restored"
7. bebo norman "try"
8. john mayer trio "try!"
9. jamie cullum "catching tales"
10. something by rufus wainwright. i don't know his music well enough to pick, so if you do, pick out something good for me. haha, like i'm going to get anything on this list.
now that i feel really selfish for posting that, i'm gonna go shoot some photos of this idea i just got. i'm not much of an artist, so when i get inspired to contrive a photo, it's a rare occasion. then i'm gonna find a use for this new pen that i got in my stocking at grandma's.
