My Next Career: Voice-over and Audiobook Reader

I had a revelation the other day about how I could make money. Any number of people have told me over the years I should do voice-over work. For whatever reason, I poo-pooed the idea. And then I was researching how to produce an audiobook of my own book, "The Rise & Fall of the HoneyBun Empire" and found this website where I could hire voice talent and it just hit me: "Hey I could do that!"
Better late than never.

The Aftershock

Still processing the loss. I truly didn't see it coming. Of course I live in the SF Bay Area bubble. But how we could elect a convicted rapist and felon to the office of the presidency is beyond me.

The History of Rock Music in 500 Songs

The best music podcast I have ever heard. I cannot recommend it highly enough. I'm very happy he's only 2/5 of the way through his exhaustive and fascinating history of the popular music and the world of the second half of the twentieth century.

Trump Town USA Store Owner Arrested

The article does not say how many 'Trump's Balls' wall hangings he has sold.

Another demo of a song for my next album: "Why Did You Have To Smile At Me?"

Still a demo, but I think the strings and oboe parts are keepers! Enjoy.

The Rise & Fall of the HoneyBun Empire

I've decided the old title of my memoir "The Gentlemanly Art of Spanking" set up an unrealistic expectation for some people and turned others off. The new edition will be called "The Rise & Fall of the HoneyBun Empire." It will be available soon on Apple Books, Lulu.com, and Amazon. If you want a copy with the Gentlemanly Art of Spanking cover, now is the time to buy it!
Other than the title change, it's the exact same book.

The Mystery of Federico

A mysterious Facebook friend who seemed to have connections to my family in San Francisco. We were penpals for a while. He shared my demos with Quincy Jones, who produced "Thriller" among other things. 
 

Final addition to my next album's playlist—A demo, untitled

Super rough, but practice makes perfect.

Oh To Work With A Real Producer

I've been listening to the "History of Rock and Roll in 500 Songs"—simply amazing!—and then the Rick Beato interview with Rick Rubin on YouTube. Thinking about what a great producer brings to a musical project. I wish I had one! 

Megalopolis—Where did the money go?

Everything you have read about Megalopolis is true. I think everybody who cares about movies should see it.
