Hi!

I have recorded a CD of spoken word poetry, some piano compositions & piano improvs, and a couple of songs.

The CD is called "Perimeters."

If you'd like to have one, please send me your snail mail address and I'll put one in the mail to you.

email your address to - dp@studioeight.tv

Oh ... and how have y'all been? Haven't talked to you in eons! (Except, of course, for those I've talked to much more recently )

Hi lady!  I still listen to my favorite cuts on it - and you forgot to mention ... you did the artwork on the cover which I thought was Monet, remember? LOL  Glad to see you getting yourself circulated especially here among old friends.  Take care lady, and talk to you soon.

MysteriousOne -
I'm so happy you liked listening and have some favorites on the CD! Thank you and thanks again for sending out a previous announcement to people by email!   ... you're a gem! ... But Monet? NO! No Monet necessary! I'm giving them away for free! lol

Rebel -
Yep, that would be the pun. PERImeters. Thanks for the congrats.

SunshineyOne -
And I am impressed by your novel, also! Review is coming soon! I'm almost finished reading it. Thank you for listening!  

Midnitesun & hoot_owl...
I got your emails and will be shipping you both a CD this weekend. Thank you so much for wanting to listen! Great to *see* you all again!

I've missed my friends on this website!

Dor! Thanks a ton for the CD. My wife and I listened to it and had a blast. You rock. Thanks for being so generous. It was fun to hear your voice AND your handy work.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

sereneOne - Thanks! I'm starved! It only seems like old times because time is a continuum. There is only one time. This time. Now.  I remember so many things I love to remember and so many things I'd rather forget which is so exactly similar to how I felt before that it seems vaguely familiar indeed. Timing is everything. Except for when you've lost your watch. Or especially when the clock has stopped but then again when the clock has stopped, does time cease to be or matter? No! I'm sure you'll agree with that. Once upon a time there was a fairytale. I'd go on with this but you know the ending. The End.

Larry - So happy to hear you got it and you and your wife listened! Thank you kindly for lending me your ears. And thanks to your lady, also! Glad you liked the packaging. I tried my best to make it look pretty because we all know, good things come in pretty packages. No wait! That's little packages, right? Damn, maybe I should have recorded it on one of those mini-tapes? I screwed up again! phooey

hmm... well, MysteriousOne, I signed a little note I put inside of them. Does that count?

Y'think that maybe if I become a poet who's name people recognize after I'm dead for about 100 years, my signature can be sold on ebay for 50ยข or something?

Doreen,
Thank you for sending me a copy, Doreen. I have listened to it several times, the first time when Nan and Hootowl were here, and each time I am equally impressed with your talents. It is very enjoyable and I highly recomend my fellow poets to take Doreen up on her offer.
THank you for sending it to me. It was very kind and thoughtful and much appreciated

Linda - why thank you so much! Want one?

Liz - Great to see you! Thanks for your kind accolades. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Hope all is well with you! I think of you often and miss your poetry.

Martie - Thank you so much for listening and for your kind words! I miss your poetry too.

Kacy - That's very tweet of you to say that! First track is the Cabaradio Rag, the theme song I wrote for our Cabaradio Show. We're doing another one... well, actually 2 of them... as part of the Capital Fringe Festival this summer.. very first Fringe festival in DC ever. I'll post some info about the show later (I hope). Oh and I miss your poetry too!

I'm working on a Beatles medley I arranged for the show. I havent' written the poetry yet or choreographed the dance but it will be a multiple combination of something or other. I recorded this tonight between Scrabble games. I know. I have a few mistakes but hell, I'm working on 'em anyway and if you just don't pay attention to the errors, I'd be grateful. I can't write the accompanying spoken poetry until I get this track down and I can't choreograph the accompanying mime/dance until I get this track down so thank you for bearing with me.

I'm waiting to hear "Stuck into the Jack in the Back of a Mac" talk about originality!
good to listen to your words and piano. BTW, I simply loved the Take Me track. A lightning rod/peri-sensual duet!

"stuck in the jack in the back of a mac" is coming next time maybe.. lol.. thanks for listening and laughing with me!

Dor, hey!  Can you fix the link it goes to "nowhereland" - tah.         Oh, this one... http://studioeight.tv/musicpost/dp/beatlesmedley_2006.mp3

It says, "Not Found - The requested URL /musicpost/dp/beatlesmedley_2006.mp3 was not found on this server.  Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Whatever that means?

Helen & Dixie - You're both so very kind! Thank you for listening and for your generous accolades! You made my day!

Sharon -
The link doesn't work because I removed the file because I need to re-record it. I wasn't happy with it. It's a Beatles medley I arranged which includes Michelle, Hey Jude, Across the Universe, Your Mother Should Know, When I'm 64, Mr. Kite, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, and Michelle again. It's a 5 minute piece and I can't seem to play the whole thing through yet without making a couple of mistakes and that's not good enough.... so I'm working on it. The plan is to use the piano medley as a background for a spoken word piece called "Michelle & Jude" - a love story. Thanks for clicking and sorry the link didn't work. I'll let you know when I get a new recording up!

Doreen, I just finished listening to Perimeters 2005! Thank you for your generosity and for sharing your talent and creativity with us. I was tickled by your tickling of the ivories and by the sweetness of the flute (lightening?).

Summertime is one of my all-time favourite songs and I enjoyed your rendition of it.

It was a treat to hear a poet recite their own poetry and you did it so well. Your earthy voice worked well with your bawdy, down-to-earth poems.

You Make ~ Wow! I listened to it three times! The first was simply appreciating the whole package, and then I concentrated on your voice and then on lightening's! Magic! ~ and hot!

The closing track got my day off on a lively note!

I appreciate all the talent, creativity, and work that went into producing your CD ~ and your sharing of it with us!

Love & Light-ening,
Linda

Linda and Maree - I'm so glad you both got the CD! Usually when I ship something out of the country, the shipping store I use has me fill out a customs slip which indicates what the package is (even when it's obviously a CD.. lol). Anyway, there was a new girl there and she didn't ask me to fill out the customs form and I realized this after I got back home and in my head I thought they'd never get there and be returned to me. (Geesh... where else would I think except for "in my head"? ) Whew! I DO ramble, huh? Soooo... I'm very happy to know you both got one and listened and I'm elated that you liked my meager attempts at trying to play piano and speak and sing. You're both very kind to say all those nice things! Thank you!
