That's the Way

On my last sojourn to the city that never sleeps, i was busy doing what any consciensious visitor to "Rome" would do, not sleep.  We traveled far and wide through the expanse of the burg of William, mostly keeping close to the trail of watering holes for hydration purposes.  As we progressed back to hq in the early hours, we got waylaid by a celebration of backyard proportions.  What happened next was a dance party.  In between the melee, i escaped to the confines of the host crib for a relaxation break.  It was here that i met, Mr. Gordon Kenny of the sweet-shades-wearing -yacht-rock-appreciating tribe.  I fear, though, i can't divulge the origins of his sunglasses awesomeness, you'll just have to track him down yourself.  Regardless, Mr. Kenny is part of a crew of like-minded-shade-wearing gents, Matty "Beans" Aidala and Brendan "Brendo" Parker, who produce sights and sounds for your sensory/dancing/laughing/enjoyment enjoyment (that's not a typo).  You can catch them @ Midnight, Sundays on Long Island Cablevision Ch.20, or on their Youtube or MySpace.  Giving you the bidness two times, here's the inimitable flavor of

I really wanted to get the full video up here cos it's kinda cool.  And i did, for a hot minute, but thank you MTV Overdrive for killing the joy.  If you're listening out there, please fix that.  Otherwise, here's a cool widget with more Chester French/Star Trak related material.

 

 

Episode 2: Loggins and MacDonald vs Hall and Oates in a songwriting contest.

A couple years back a friend of mine described his favorite music as "smooth music" on his facebook profile.  The whole idea of music that was smooth had me all sorts of excited.  So i asked him what he meant by this "smooth music", and this was his response.  Part of a 10 part series by JD Ryznar (very funny dude), this is the first episode. Stay tuned for more episodes.
