If You Don't Like It... LIE!

Thanks so much to everyone who has listened to my future hit over there on the right...FUCK IT! The feedback and support you've given me has been stellar, and I can't wait for you to hear the lastest tracks for my NEW CD. We're going into the studio today here in NYC, then up to Woodstock tomorrow...and then we should be FINISHED RECORDING!!! OK, then we've got to mix the damn thing, and who knows how long that will take...

BUT MEANWHILE... I've put up a stream for your listening pleasure from my first CD, BIGGER IS ALWAYS BETTER. It's a bit more, shall we say, serious. How many of you people out there are VULNERABLE? I am...Actually, I can honestly say that I'm SENSITIVE AS SHIT! So I wrote this tune and called it: (IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT), LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE! It ends with a piece that I lovingly named THE GODDAMN VIOLIN SOLO. So called because everyone always asked me after shows if I had recorded the extended violin solo that I always play live. When I finally DID record it, the engineer asked me what I wanted to call it and I just shouted from the other room... I DON'T KNOW! JUST CALL IT THE GODDAMN VIOLIN SOLO, OK?

So here it is. Give it a listen. Let me know what you think. If you have trouble streaming this, TRY AGAIN in a few minutes because it can't handle too many simultaneous streams. (I feel so popular!)
If you like it, buy it!






************************************************************************

I have a small dilemma on my hands. I NEED HELP HERE! My husband hates the fact that I keep calling him HUBBY in my blog. I don't really blame him, but I can't think of anything else to call him. So I'll tell you a secret... his real name is Andrew. That's what they call him at work down on Wall Street. It sounds so very professional, doesn't it? I've always called him Andy. Nobody else calls him that. But it's better than our pet names for each other which for decency's sake I can't mention here!

Being a Brit, Andy has an altogether English name...complete with a bloody hyphen and everything! I didn't take his last name as I've always believed that it's taken me long enough to become ME. And I didn't take any of my previous husbands' last names either! (3's the charm!)

Look, I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING against the name ANDY. I think it's a really cute name. He's an extremely cute guy! But if I was a REAL rock star, wouldn't I be married to a guy with a name like NIGEL or BRAD?

NOW, YOU MIGHT SAY: Last Girl...Why don't you just use his real name here in the blog and call him Andy?

MY ANSWER TO YOU WOULD BE: Well, that is so unkool! What about my super private "GEE, I WISH I WAS A ROCK STAR" persona. (Quick, find my dark sunglasses and big hat!) Where's the MYSTERY if you know all my intimate details? I'm mean...there's CRAZY people out there, RIGHT?

So if any of you have any good suggestions for what I can call Andy, my HUBBY, here in my blog, I'd love to hear them! (Now... be nice!)

Names he likes and actually suggested himself...which I refuse to use... include:
LORENZO THE MAGNIFICENT
BEASTMASTER
CAP'N PUGWASH, SCOURGE OF THE SPANISH MAIN
Or his Native American Name: GETS-NO-RESPECT
