CD's done. Finally! OK, to be fair, it was "unofficially" done sometime earlier this week, but I wanted to wait until today to release. I dunno, maybe Friday's a great day to debut some new music on the internets. ...internet. I meant internet.
I know, you're expecting me to go into a bit of a monologue about the CD (titled "Fading Purple Sky") and the process and everything that's on it... and yes, this would be the space for me to do it... but I kinda already did that in the album notes (and a few of the track notes as well). So for once I'm not going to spill on the blog.
You can listen to my music at my Bandcamp site here [“http://nathanfivecoate.bandcamp.com/“]. I would personally encourage you two things: 1.) if you like it, please download! You can name your price and everything. 2.) Please please please spread the word! One of the reasons I've been very loathe to pursuing a music career is the fact that it seems half the world plays gigs, making it therefore a very cut-throat business. If you're a regular reader, you know I'm not the type that will go out and get in people's throats when it comes to marketing. Even if I were the über-aggressive type, I have so far to go, so any help you can in spreading the word will go a long way. Someday, somehow, I will think and pray as to how to truly thank you for your efforts. :-)
In that vein, I will help a brother (or two) out and spread the word about some of their awesome music, also on Bandcamp. I would also encourage you to download their stuff as well if it tickles your fancy.

I'm employed again. I commuted out to Franklin Park to fill in for someone at a manufacturing plant. The gig lasts a week-and-a-half. Come two weeks from now, I will have seen the most money fall into my lap since about a year ago (God willing). It of course will dissipate quickly, as I have quite a few expenses that badly need to get taken care of. Oh well.
