MY DEBUT ALBUM!!

So, I came across this fun little time-waster and couldn't help but jump right on in and spend a few minutes creating my own!! Basically, you're creating an album cover using random things. If you want to create your own band and debut album cover randomly then...

Do This:

1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random” or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random The first random Wikipedia article that comes up is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotations Page and select "random quotations" or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 - The last four or five words of the very LAST quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days” or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days - The third picture in the top row, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.

Here are how mine turned out...I, uh...sorta cheated on the second one...the pic was too cute to NOT use...

Music News

A friend of mine talked me into going to this concert at Eddie's Attic last year and I couldn't say that I'd heard of any of the musicians scheduled to perform...but I am SO glad that I went (Thanks Abbykay!) because I 'discovered' Erin McCarley. She was one of ten musicians that were performing that night..and boy was she a standout!
So, of course, I HAD to share my newfound love. You might've heard her song 'Love, Save the Empty' on the newly released movie 'He's Just Not That Into You'. I've been listening to her cd almost non-stop since I got it...some three months ago!!
So...I'm just recommending that you go and check her cd out! You can even get a free download of her song 'Pitter Pat' from the cd here. Happy listening!
