Elijah Black on Bearradio.net

I'm listening to one of Elijah Black's songs on bearradio.net. This is the first time I've heard him on bearradio.

Elijah is an amazing artist, and I hope he can get some more exposure.

I SOOOooooo love him. *sighs* I had a good time hanging w/ him and Sammy, too.

Elijah is GOD!

I got to talk to Elijah on the phone today (well, I talked to Bill; "Elijah" mostly exists only on stage and in the studio).

He twisted his ankle this morning and was in considerable pain, soaking it in a bucket of ice! Any positive vibes would certainly be appreciated!

I was the second one to let him know he was finally being played on bearradio; Dave Montana had already emailed him before I did.

And it turns out Dave Montana is a friend of my buddy Carlos; Carlos was a fan of a band Dave was in years ago in Puerto Rico.

I stand by my contention that we're all no more than 2 degrees of separation from EVERY other bear on the planet!

tattered hat & Dollar Store Mary

I heard another tattered hat track on bearradio this morning. Is it you singing? It's good stuff. I hope you get that CD out some day so I can buy it. Shit, burn me a copy; I'll buy that!

I spent the last 3 days listening to "Self-Titled," the 2002 EP by the defunct canadian band Dollar Store Mary. Led by Dave Taylor (www.davidjtaylor.com) it's 6 sizzling tracks of really well-produced power pop. I bought it years ago off mp3.com, when they used to be an outlet for unsigned music. I dug it out of the "wall of CDs" when I remembered Dave and his music last week; Dave and I used to chat online back in the day.

I haven't listened to it since it was new. I remembered being impressed; listening now I'm gob-smacked. It's awesome. And the louder you play it, the better it gets. I'm in love!

Dave has a new CD coming out soon. I can't wait to hear it.

This is what radio will sound like when I'm in charge: XTC and The Records and Plimsouls and Fountains of Wayne and Badfinger and Big Star and Death Cab for Cutie and The Go-Go's and Dollar Store Mary.
