The Other Ron Freemans

I admit that I google myself all the time. It's disgusting. The other day for the first time I did a google image search of me and ran across lots of other Ron Freemans who I will share with you now.

This is the famous shot of me peeing on a barn.


The man on the far right is the most famous Ron Freeman, an olympic gold medalist in the 60's. He is standing with fellow olympians Bruce Jenner and Milt Campbell.


This is a homeless Ron Freeman from Chatanooga who has just registered to vote.

Ron Freeman the Hangliding Champion

So for all you bored cubicle dwellers here's my tip for the day. Image googling is way more fun and interesting. Also, I am the handsomest Ron Freeman alive.

Help Find This Missing Band!



Ticklepenny Corner was a great little folky band from Wisconsin that I first saw at Cornerstone Music Festival. Unfortunately you really missed this missing band and they never got famous and then faded into obscurity. They last played about 3 years ago and despite persistent googling I have not found any new music. Noah Riemer, the main songwriter, did go on to play drums for The Urban Hillbilly Quartet as well as writing & directing a short film but I have found no new songs. That's a dirty shame 'cuz he was a heckuva songwriter as evidenced by this tune sung by his sister Beth. Any info you may have about the wherabouts of Noah Riemer or the rest of Ticklepenny Corner would be much appreciated.

A song about George Michael's better half...



I've never actually heard any other Black Box Recorder songs besides this one; a tribute to the lesser known member of Wham, Andrew Ridgely. I probably should seek out more since this song is so hysterically awesome.

Good 'ol Grandpa Greg

One of the things that I want to do with this blog is spread the word on some musician friends of mine. Grandpa Greg is certainly one of those musicians. This is his classic "Feed The Ducks" which I helped him record in my old apartment. I don't think you can even buy his record, he mostly just gave it away to friends.

The post where I start an mp3 blog...

Let's start off with some rare Wilco, or rather a rare Jeff Tweedy track with Jay Bennett and Roger McGuinn (from the Birds!). This is from The Harry Smith Connection: A Live Tribute to the Anthology of American Folk Music. Enjoy.
