Notes from the pacific northwest

In Seattle at the moment...drove up from Oregon with the band. It's been a good west coast run thus far. Eugene was a blast with the Justin King Band. It's been blazing hot though. I thought the Pacific Northwest would be a much needed relief from the New York City heat wave. I was quite mistaken.

Yesterday we were on the hunt for the Turtle Sundae at Dairy Queen. The band and I drove 150 miles to find what we were searching for. Finally we found it. It was quite delicious. There is video blogging footage of this. Check on Youtube.com in the next day or two. Last night we also enjoyed a Seattle dinner at P.F. Chiengs. The Singapore Noodles are quite good.

new song ideas

hey guys:
there is a new section for you guys on my Virb.com page (virb.com/alexnackman). i've decided to create a proverbial tennis ball hopper of song ideas, record them, and toss them in raw form onto Virb.com

You guys can check them out, hear me make mistakes, hit wrong notes, and basically sus out some ideas in a very organic way from my studio. The first song up there right now is a working version of a track called "something remains." the song has slightly changed since the recording was made, but hey, that's what this is all about, right?

P.S. the music video for "Proximity" is also up there (Virb.com, Myspace.com, Youtube.com, alexnackman.com, etc, whatever)
