What's this?  It's not Monday.  Yes, I'm a day late.  I got sick on Sunday with the beginnings of a nasty cold, and it hit me full bore yesterday.  Ok, with that out of the way, welcome to a "Songwriting Story" edition of my blog... oh, but there is a twist.

I want to tell you the stories behind the songs on Defacing the Moon, which is the split album out on Local Music Day from me and The Paint Splats. However, I wrote five of the songs on this split album.  That would be an awfully long blog entry, and even the three people that read this every week probably aren't going to sign up for several thousand words, right?  

Here is what I will do... I will verbally tell you stories about writing these songs.  In fact, I will do one song a day beginning with Monday 4th November.  That day, by the time the evening of Friday the 8th rolls around (this is the +1 bonus day for "Local Music Day), you'll have a story for all five songs.  I'm going to use my Instagram page to do this, specifically the stories section.  If you're not following me over there, please do so.  You can click the link in the previous sentence, or the one at the bottom of the screen on my website here.

To quote a Mel Brooks movie, "Everybody got that?  Good."
