A few comments regarding the “Songs for Jenny” CD:

“Songs for Jenny is superb. The production is SO impressive, so clear–you’re operating at audiophile level here. The musicianship is top-notch. And the contributors really bring it. A very satisfying purchase!”

“It’s a magnificent CD. The first song (“Your Smile Never Fades” with Leah Pinnavaia) is bright and buoyant -but with the power to jerk a few tears. Great artwork and layout. Great cause. And a great assemblage of talent.”

FATAL INTERVIEW – SHOW #7

Download the Show MP3: http://m.podshow.com/media/21822/episodes/195341/interviewfatal-195341-11-03-2009.mp3

- Released November 3, 2009

Tony thought he wouldn’t have a new show until January 2010, but then in organizing the sound files on his computer, he discovered he had way too much material saved for shows, so…here’s another “Season One” episode! The show features the usual kind of Mind Trip, poetry and artsy observations you’ve come to tolerate from TP. Poetry readings feature Kim Chestney and Ro Karen. The main section features outtakes from my “Talented Friends” interview with Jakob Rehlinger. The show finishes with the TP song “What Left Unsaid”, a demo from 1996.

FI podcast returning in January 2010

leave a comment »

I did a fair amount of writing last night for the next round of FATAL INTERVIEW podcasts. I’m sorry if it’s taking a while to get the next round of episodes out! I have been changing, rechanging, rearranging, and exchanging ideas for what I want to do with the show. It won’t change that much, if you’ve listened to it already. But I’m going to add some bits. I’m going to try to be more succinct, at least with some points. I want to have more guests, I want to have anything and everything (slightly) interesting I can come up with, or talk other people into doing! The show will continue to be a reflection of my mind, and what else could it be, really? Some times it will be focused, some times it will be very random, some times it might be very practical, some times it might be artsy, or silly, or strange, or sad, or joyful, or crazy…but I hope that it will always interest you, in some little way. There are so many things I like about other podcasts, but I also realize I need to fit it all in with my personality. This summer I did 6 shows (now labeled “Season One”) and released them every two weeks. While I wish I had nothing better to do than to sit around and make podcasts all day, I think I’ve finally settled on FI being a monthly (audio) magazine. Hopefully such a release schedule will give me time to come up with a good show, yet I won’t be too stressed about trying to be Podcast Boy all of the time. Since we are so close to 2010, I’ve just decided that Season Two (F.I.S.T. = Fatal Interview Season Two, an idea from Kennedy I may use) will begin in January. I already have enough material on my computer for about three shows, it is just not organized nor, in some cases, edited. Anyway, just some random thoughts for y’all about my personal podcast, to let you know it hasn’t been shelved, it’s coming back, etc. If you’d like to participate in any way, perhaps a guest spot, and interview, a phone call, a poetry reading, some sort of reporting submission from your locale…I’d love to talk to you about it. Most of ya know how to get a hold of me!

creative life support

with one comment

I have been decidedly most non-creative lately. It’s been bothering the heck out of me! I’ve never forced my creativity, I’ve always just gone and done what the muse told me to do. To cut it short, I need to be in love, or falling in love, or have some legitimate hope that love will happen…for me to be creative. My muse is wrapped, if not in the promise of passion, than at least in warm blankets and lonely lamentations let go and lost. Even an artsy letter to a lovely girl who represents the bliss of the feminine and nights of wine and soft talk would suffice, but any attempts today to write such a letter to anyone I actually know would be a false exercise. No, kind reader, I am not lamenting here to you today, just observing. In the past, I was the ostrich, ignoring my daily lack of joy by sticking my head in daydream sand and there finding a kaleidoscope multi-colored gems faceted with infinite stories. It was enough for me. But now, reality crashes into me like a relentless storm, and finding my way to a new home in the blinding rain is proving to be more costly and time-consuming than I could have ever imagined it to be. But there lies the snake in the grass, imagination, forked-tongue serpent tricking me into biting into his fucking apple. It was enough, as I said, to daydream for years upon years, still longing for the idealistic bliss of high school dreams and pristine beginnings. Meanwhile, life was passing me by. I wanted to belong, but I constantly sought escape. Ultimately, I never lifted one finger to attempt to live up to my potential. A rather decently-large potential, I prefer to believe, but I wonder what can be salvaged. But I’ll never know, and I’ll never grow, unless I try. And this is what preoccupies my mind these days, beyond daydreaming of new cds, podcasts, and even talking autumn walks with a certain someone I’ve known long enough, but don’t know well enough at all. Yes, I’m being vague and quasi-artsy, but the point is, I need to get from A to B, and it’s going to be hard, but I’ll never be able to stand proud if I don’t start trying, now, to live up to my potential. I’ve let a lot of people down, including myself. I’ve left a lot of people waiting too long, including myself. This journey is going to be worth it, and at the end is song and bliss. A reimagining. A reinventing. Old faces in new places. Finally, a man. I’ve not yet lost faith; perhaps I am just now discovering what I believe.

New Minnesota Wild 3rd Jersey!

leave a comment »

It is not often I find myself coveting something these days, so it was with a rush of excitement and a big “Oooooo!” that I watched the new Minnesota Wild 3rd jersey debut vs. the Colorado Avalanche the other night. I even called people and said, “hey, turn to channel 30 and check out the new Wild jerseys!” I do believe Christmas is right around the corner?
