Four Years Old Today!
Yep, on this day in 2005, I started the Failed Muso blog.
I had confused intentions back then. I wasn’t sure if this was to be anything specific or just a place to collate my ramblings. It soon took a turn towards my passion for music and music technology, with a soupçon of random shit thrown in!
MUCH has changed since then, mostly for the better :o)
Anyway, Happy Birthday Failed Muso! You have served me well and here’s to many more!
By way of a celebration, I created a rather large and eclectic new Spotify playlist today, entitled, “Failed Muso’s History Of New York” which attemps (successfully, I hope) to bring together almost a century of music from that fine city. So expect to hear pieces by Al Jolson, George Gershwin, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, French Horn Rebellion, Suicide, Television, Velvet Underground, Blondie, Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, Wu-Tan Clan, Jay-Z, Grandmaster Flash and many more.
It can be found on the most excellent ShareMyPlaylists.com site, along with all my others….
Happy Birthday!
You know, I’ve been wondering what to write here since you posted this and I still don’t know what to say. This place is far too fucking quiet! Stop wasted your time on Twitter and Facebook! Quit your denial, the girls on there will never sleep with you! Post shit here! I’ll never sleep with you either but fuck it, I’ll fap hard to blog posts!
