Stage names for actors are one thing, but I feel it's a different story for singer-songwriters. There's an artist-audience relationship here, an expectation of honesty, in a sense. Looking at a mix CD I'm sending out, I see: Sarah Harmer Steve Poltz Sarah Slean Jason Mraz Matt Nathanson Brenda Weiler I can think of a handful of folks who go by their first and middle name (Gary Jules, Terra Naomi, Tiffany Joy, Anya Marina). Miss Gryner "changed" her first name, but *everyone* calls her Emm. But that's not the same -- nobody's making something up. Apparently no one else cares, so I'm happy to drop this.

As is her wont, the lyrics aren't all listed, but the cover warns me that they contain 'moderate impact coarse language and/or themes' (lots of 'fucks').

I shared this interpretation of The Byrds' "Everybody Has Been Burned" with the other two music lists I follow: the Television list and the Byrd's newsgroup I thought I'd share this with ecto as well. Though it's technically not ecto-ish music, it has an etheric, gothic quality to it. I don't mean to anger anyone by sharing my own music but I admit this is a case of shameless self-promotion I hope it's okay. Other people have done this song: http://dslweb.nwnexus.com/russvr/EverybodyHasBeenBurnedBefore.mp3 , but I wanted to have a crack at it. Warning: It's a little over the top and inspired as much by the punk band Sebadohs' version as it is by David Crosbys' original; with a little Neil Young and Richard Thompson thrown in ( that is to say , these are my inspirations) . Please let me know if you like it !

CDBaby amazes me. I totally agree with Michael -- this would be a great place for Happy. Imagine this... you send a box of CDs up to Portland, and CDBaby informs you whenever a CD is sold, who bought it, and how they found out about you. Then, every Tuesday morning (as long as your earnings reach a predetermined amount -- mine is set for $20), you get a friendly PayPal message telling you, "you've got cash" from CDBaby! After dealing with distributors who never pay you and the illogical and inconvenient Amazon Advantage program, CDBaby is a breath of fresh air. If I get up to Portland again, I'm going to stop by their office and bring them a bouquet of flowers or chocolates or something. So, consider this a ringing endorsement of CDBaby. :) - --Sue Trowbridge (whose record company is offering Jill Tracy's DIABOLICAL STREAK CD via CDBaby) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Jun 2004 22:24:10 -0400 From: meredith Subject: Re: Problems for Happy Hi, Michael suggested: >Do we have any members in Texas near these crooks?

I was thinking more along the lines of "how many ectophiles can we gather to go down there and pay these scumbags a visit?" Same idea, but maybe a dozen or so pissed-off people, accompanied by the appropriate badged muscle might be a tad more effective than just one. :} =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== Live At The House O'Muzak House Concert Series http://muzak.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V10 #152 ***************************
