I Hear that Train a Comin'

It's been awhile since I've posted for a couple of reasons, mainly because I was feeling a bit lousy last week and haven't been doing much work.  I also had other tasks that I had to take care of over the past two weekends so it's been slow going, trying to get back into the swing of things.

I did finally place the order for the "The Effects of Connection" CD's.  Getting the artwork approved this time was super simple since I had made decent notes from my last order.  I'm thinking the CD's will be shipped to me sometime this week.  I'm super happy with how the artwork turned out.

I did spend a bit of time this weekend working on both the "Mirror Land" mixes and "Petty Cash".  The latter is the first EP that I ever put together which consists of simplified cover versions of two Tom Petty songs and "Ring of Fire" ala Johnny Cash.  A friend of mine asked and requested that I remix it so I've been plugging away at it here and there.  It's actually coming together quite nicely and should be done fairly soon.

The other thing I've been working on is getting some t-shirts created on Threadless.  I've had an idea about doing this for a few years now but I'm finally trying to get it started.  It's looking like I'm going to have two different stores, basically one for music related items and the other for everything else.  I'll announce more details about it once it's ready to go since I'm still more or less dabbling at this point.

That's really about all I've got to report at the moment.  My focus right now is pretty much on wrapping up "Mirror Land" asap including the artwork, finishing "Petty Cash", and then continuing my work on the Defrost Nixon album.  My day job related work has been a bit on the harsh side lately so my productivity has definitely slowed a bit but hopefully the train starts moving at full speed again.
