Twinkle Twinkle, Giant Space Station

April has come and gone, and we've got most of the first song for our second album in the can. We've got almost all the tracking on "We Can Be Anything" done. I'm quite happy with how this is coming along, we've got Betsy and Sunnie on it, and some interesting guitar layers that you've never heard yet because I have only one pair of hands when I play it live. You'll love it.

I just watched the International Space Station pass overhead. It's the first time I've had a chance to see it, all the other times that I knew about it in advance were hampered by that pesky "weather" thing everyone always talks about. It was quite impressive; brighter than any satellite I've seen, almost as bright as Venus, bright enough to be mistaken for an airplane (an impossibly high and impossibly fast airplane without any blinking anti-collision lights). Susan and I watched it track across the entire southwestern sky over a period of about 5 minutes shortly after sunset. By the way, on the topic of satellites, make sure you've got a Java runtime engine installed and have a play with JTrack 3D.

Upcoming show at Wayward!

In one week, on Saturday, May 22nd, 7:00 pm, Vixy & Tony are playing at Wayward Coffeehouse, with Betsy on cello. Come enjoy a nice spring evening with us at our favorite haunt!

In other news, all our friends will be thrilled to know that Klaatu42 has a new video up! It's called "The New Fish".

RUG.

I'd love to have you on the album. Maybe we'll find a special spot for you on one of the songs. :-)
