Sorry I've been truant. I am swamped with work and have one major piece of remarkable in the oven. If it rises correctly, I'll be sure to let all of you sample the baked goodness here at this blog first.
Funny stuff going on over at Will It Bill.
Since I've missed two NMWs, I'll throw you guys a bone. Dolores O'Riordan is best known as the lead singer for The Cranberries. She recently released a solo album that is very, very good. Here is the first single, Ordinary Day.
I highly recommend the entire album titled "Are You Listening".
Life is more intricate than it seems.

NMW: No More Kings, Sweep The Leg
DeeCee turned me onto these guys about a month (maybe more) ago. They just released their debut album on March 27th, and Pete Mitchell (lead singer, animator, speaker of Japanese) described it as "A love letter to the eighties." There are songs about Knight Rider, the Smurfs, Peanuts (the comic strip), and of course, Karate Kid.
I guarantee you this is the best band with a song written entirely from the point of view of a 80's movie antagonist portrayed by William Zabka.
What's more, these guys are going to be rocking Knickerbockers tomorrow night with Traceback and As The City Sleeps. I'll be there, for sure. I'm thinking about rocking the gi, crane kick style!
Send him home in a body bag Johnny!

NMW: Bob Schneider, Metal and Steel
I saw Bob in concert way back in the beginning of April at Knickerbockers. He put on a great live show. He even records it and then makes the CDs available immediately following the performance. It's a brilliant idea and I've been listening to it ever since. While "Metal and Steel" isn't my favorite song, it's one of his more mainstream ballads that people will like.
This song, which I call "I'm Ready", is great and shows you how he spans genres. The lovely woman in the background is Sharon Little, who will probably be a NMW artist in the future.
And finally, a picture of me and Bob after his show. He looks thrilled to be there, doesn't he?
You ready? I'm ready. I'm ready. Let's roll.
