More Buzzie Live – from the El Ray in Los Angeles

Category: just for fun, music, social mediajmacofearth @ 6:11 pm

(cross posted from blog.buzzie.com the buzzie rockband blog)

With the encouragement of two dear friends, I have begun processing some of the video from the El Ray show, oh, a few years back. This is the first instalment. The sound is about a 6 out of 10. It was shot on the tiniest video cam I ever saw. Just a fan. He contacted me after the show and offered to send it to me from JAPAN. He did.

This is a gift back to David Bash who has been so awesome to invite Buzzie back to IPO again and again.

And also to my blip.fm friends @ladypn and @adamofdallas.

A Bit 'o Humor at the Experts Expense: The SEO Expert said to the SM Expert

What did the SEO Expert say to the Social Media Expert when they found each other on a Social Media forum?

On the way to writing a post this morning, I fell into a dream state and this is what I saw. (Note: no names have been changed, no slander has been thrown, no one is a target here… This is just a jolly exchange between two fictitious characters in my oh so nutty mind. Thank you for playing along. Please ignore if it doesn't suit your taste.)

Social Media Expert: "How did you find me here, this is amazing!"
SEO Expert: "It's kind of my thing. This search stuff.
Social Media Expert: "Oh you mean keywords and stuff like that?"
SEO Expert: "Yep, SERP, PPC, IPO, Google, Slot, Adwords, Keyword, Page Rank, all that stuff."
Social Media Expert: "Dude, you sound like…"
SEO Expert: "I know…"
Social Media Expert: "An expert!"
SEO Expert: "Thanks! Do you want m to write a recomendation for your burgeoning LinkedIN profile? You sound like you know what you are talking about too."
Social Media Expert: "Let's do this!"
SEO Expert: "We can combine our knowledge and skills!"
Social Media Expert: "We'll have superpowers!"
SEO Expert: "I'll write you a killer recommendation on LinkedIN, it will do wonders for your brand!"
Social Media Expert: "I'll write you one too. We will rule the place."
SEO Expert: "What shall we call this place?"
Social Media Expert: "Something really good for our SERPs!"
SEO Expert: "See you're learning already. And something that will BUILD our reputations as experts!"
Social Media Expert: "Egggggactly!"
SEO Expert: "So what's a good term for what we are doing right now? What will build traffic for both of us?
Social Media Expert: "What shall we call this phenomenon that brought even to of us together… Something punchy!
SEO Expert: "Something with no BS!"
Social Media Expert: "Or maybe just the opposite…"
SEO Expert: "See, YOU are the expert my friend!"
Social Media Expert: "You said it!"
SEO Expert: "Right!"
Social Media Expert: "We're both EXPERTS."
SEO Expert: "We're gonna take this thing all the way to the bank."
Social Media Expert: "No body will be able to catch us, we're gonna rule this place. Rule it!
SEO Expert: "And make a lot of money."

cinematic theme played in my mind behind the dream – when I woke up this song was actually playing on my iPod.

Too Fake for the World – by a band called Hockey

Look out, I'm just to fake for the world
Aw you know it's just a game to me…
Oh I'm just to fake you see
Wish I didn't have to be…

Gettin My Buzzie On: Summer 09 Tour of Love: "It's all part of my rock n' roll fantasy"

Category: about me, musicjmacofearth @ 8:29 pm

A free song for June. Here’s a demo I did for a song I wrote for Blue Cartoon. We played it for a while, but never recorded. Happy summer y’all.  If There’s Time – solo demo JMac

And a little post about getting ready for my Summer 09 Rock n Roll tour with Buzzie.

[excerpted from Buzzie's Rockband Blog]

I’ve got an old band mate and best friend out there, but not sure if I want to sleep over and then rent a car. They’ve got twin girls, probably in the 3ish range. And from my buddy’s response, they’re a bit overwhelmed. I asked him to sit in on a song or two. And he didn’t have the time. Oh well. Probably better to leave them be and do the Orchid. And get a car for the morning of the Orange County show. Just thinking things through. You can hear some songs from my pre-Blue Cartoon-era with John Bergquist in a band called Felix Culpa.

But the news is: I’M GOING. And today I decided to take the Les Paul rather than the Strat. Less opportunities to mess with the tone on the Strat. I’ve been know to whack the pickup selector in a strumming frenzy and then have a hard time finding the stroke to flip it back. And since I’ll be doin a backline amp, the last thing I need is to be tweaky with my tone. So set the Les Paul and leave it. Three tones. All tone and volume knobs UP, all the way UP. Down = bright, Middle = full, Up = Heavy.

Set it and forget it. In practicing today I was messing around with the Strat and it came to me, “I don’t even want to think about it.” One less thing to worry about.
