World Is Out the Window (CDR) is now available at CDBaby, iTunes and  PJ’s in Ann Arbor. World Is Out the Window is the sister album to Log Rhythms of Love, sharing much of its feel and look. Click here to see the entire cover - including the 16 page booklet and tray card photos.

With the help of Chris Malvica and my Pop, I’m back on the motherboard. Hopeful to be postfully flourishing soon. It’s been so long since I’ve computed that I can’t remember how any of the programs work!

Chocolately speaking, the kids did very well. Abe will surely eat his candy himself - but our Native Olive will likely find her treaties plundered.

Hi Folks - Sorry I’ve been away so long - but,

BAD NEWS - My motherboard has bit it! All my music and art is in limbo or bust. I do have the files backed up on an external hard drive, but my apps may be screwed. Until my computer is fixed, I will have no access to recording, video editing, photography and more. This will undoubtedly slow down my progress on After World (which has 4 tracks finished, and another 5 nearing completion).

GOOD NEWS: I did manage to get World Is Out the Window out for manufacture before the stupid thing went kabluey. The World CD is being manufactured as we surf, and will be ready for sale in a couple weeks!

In the mean time, I will try not to stress about it and get some writing done. Wish me luck!

Here is the new Penny Wyse! It will eventually come out on the tentatively titled Afterworld CD. For now, you can listen to it at iLike, myspace.

Here’s the new Cricketous Quiet - I wrote it (late) last night -

I should be posting some new recordings soon - and will announce a CD release date for World is Out the Window even sooner!

Here’s another tentatively titled, unfinished thing - no words. Rob and I are going to start on this and Penny Wyse tomorrow.

You Can Not Hop is now the God of Thunder. This will eventually go on the tentatively titled After World CD.

Go to Frank’s Myspace or Franks iLike page to give it a listen.

God of thunder

How can you fly without annoying the god of thunder
How can you float in an iron boat and not go under
Man alive, how can you drive along and see no blunder

What is the sense of fencing out your hope and wonder
What is the dream in mother nature blown asunder
Why would you scheme to take the world she nurtures from her
How can the drive thru survive by making mac rotunder
How can you undo what’s been undone and grown undoner

How can it be that a tree who breathes is only lumber
How do you rate if your dating for a chest to plunder
Love is to hope til every dopey head’s undundered
The mother of nature that used to inspire awe and wonder
Has taken a face full of fart by art I think we stunned her

Now that it’s no longer on the news stands, here’s Chris Berggren’s cool, big story in in the A2 Observer.

Olive was horrified. They wanted a picture of me and her spooning sweet at the top of the story - we waited a while, set her up, and then took her by surprise. The observer was pleased…

Between the birds, the sun, and the little pixie popping out of the woods, I feel pretty good about this one!!! Even the words are partially there!

World is Out the Window is now in the tunecore/iTunes system and is due out August 11th (or sooner) on iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazon.mp3 and emusic.

Look for CDs of World Is Out the Window and Son of Song around August 11th.
