Lindsey Buckingham performing “Big Love” solo on that sweet Gibson Chet Atkins guitar.

If I could be a musician, I’d want to be Lindsey Buckingham. I love this kind of reimagining of songs, especially when I didn’t really care for the original.

Reblogging myself, in case you missed it between Apple news, the DC gunman, and Hurricane Earl. Thanks for your attention.

The store is open.

I’m in a bit of financial pickle. I decided to go freelance a little over two years ago and had one lucrative project (that still isn’t available for public consumption, sadly) that ended in April. Since then, I’ve been trying to find design work—freelance, office, a hybrid, it really doesn’t matter at this point—but have come up short. So I’m making t-shirts, in hopes of staying afloat a little longer.

Presenting: Folk & Roll.

John Denver. Bob Dylan. James Taylor. Jim Croce. KISS makeup. What could be better?

The details

This concept came to me a few years ago, and I executed a rudimentary version of it for a music showcase put on by my pal Marie at Roughneck Music. I’d been wanting to do something with it ever since. With her blessing, I’m starting with a t-shirt.

I chose MySoti over other, perhaps more well-known alternatives because of the massive print size they support; 8”x10” is too small for what I had in mind, and they go up to 12.5”x17.5”, which is awesome. (They’re also the only site I’ve created t-shirts on that have sold, so they’ve already got a leg up on the others.)

I’ve kept the price reasonable, I think, and chose colors that I’d like to wear. If you have special requests for different colors for either the t-shirt or artwork, let me know via Twitter (@jbshop) or e-mail (shop@jasonbaldwin.us) and I’ll do my best to accommodate your request.

So what are you waiting for? Buy one already. And if you’d be so kind as to reblog or share the link to this post, I’d be most appreciative. You are my people. I love you.

Grant Lee Buffalo — Tecumseh

1:07 of awesome. One of my fondest concert memories was when The Captain (Lane, not Morgan) and I went to see Grant Lee Buffalo at Bogart’s in Cincinnati. We found ourselves right up front, pressed against the security barricade in front of bassist/keyboardist Paul Kimble, who grinned when he saw us singing along to every song.

luckyshirt:

And Vinyly presses your ashes into a vinyl record after you die.

You know, I used to say I want my body to be cremated after I die, because whatever it’s just a body.

But now I get to spend the rest of my days worrying that someone will turn me into a Wilson Phillips Christmas album.

I was clearing some deadwood out of iTunes yesterday (30GB of things I never listen to moved to the Drobo for safekeeping), and discovered I went a little too far for my round-number fixation to be satisfied.

Why, yes, I did christen the replacement pizza stone with a barbecue chicken pizza.

-Trader Joe’s pizza dough ($.99) -Bull’s Eye Kansas City BBQ sauce (the only one on the shelf that had no HFCS) -chicken breast -red onion -sweet corn -cilantro (this is one of three dishes I’ll use it in; otherwise, it ruins everything -a sprinkling of mozzarella (not buying Gouda just for this

I could certainly have classed it up by making my own dough and sauce, but it was awesome just they way it was.

If there’s been a catchier song released in the last 5 years, I haven’t heard it. I can’t stop listening to it.

Agile, Mobile, Hostile: A Year With Andre Williams

Thu, 19 Aug 2010 23:31:00 -0400

Agile, Mobile, Hostile: A Year With Andre Williams:

The full feature film is now available on Hulu.

I’ve been working for/with Twangfest for 9 years, and the greatest thing I’ve done, the thing I’m proudest of, is convincing my fellow board members to book Andre Williams for Twangfest 13 sight unseen. The man is a legend and a treasure.

And batshit crazy.

And the subject of some of my favorite musician photos I’ve ever shot.

(The dashboard doesn’t show that the words in the last sentence link to those photos of which I speak. I’ve italicized them, just because.)
