Viewing: Whiners and Losers - View all posts

Almost There  

Well, the Whiners and Losers album is almost mixed. It's so close. In fact, it's so close I can't finish it since I'm so close to it. I've been giving it some distance to see if I still like the mixes when I come back to them. So, we'll set the date shortly and off we go. Gotta' get it out ... stay tuned.

We say it outloud for those who celebrate Christmas: "Merry Christmas" (and especially to Reham, who argues we shouldn't get hung up about being too PC). For those who don't celebrate Santa or Christ or gift giving, or whatever ... happy all the rest!

Shouldn't be too long for that so look for an early 2012 release. 

We found one single male bedbug in The Whiners studio shortly after the previous blog and, well, if you've…Read more

Supertramp, Lord Stanley and team 

I saw Supertramp June 12 and loved them.  

I'm sad, of course, we didn't get Roger Hodgson together with the band (and of course Dougie Thompson as well on bass). Still, the band was great with John Helliwell and Bob Siebenberg from the classic line up still around.  Rick Davies plays amazing and they all looked great too. Well worth the ticket.

Roger Hodgson is quoted as being disappointed too he wasn't a part of this 40 year anniversary tour. He's also pissed that the band is playing his material. There…Read more
