When my site crashed 
I lost the map
To all my visitors
Having to start over
Is a drag
Now you'll never know 
How many fans I have 
In Kenya

Back to normal?

I think the site is kinda back to normal maybe ish.  I just found this... reminded me of how the music files were playing for a few days.... ha

Going on ?? what is

You may notice some technical problems with the site today.  They are changing servers/updating so, of course, everything is wonkers.  Random. Beautiful. Messed. Up.

The Calamari Wrestler

Well, I was adding "The Wrestler" to my Netflix queue when I came across this;



What can I say?

Mathis Brothers, Buck Owens and Me

So, I just learned that a few of my songs are going to be used in a movie.  There's also going to be a soundtrack released.  Pretty fun.  It is one of those struggling, independent releases, a romantic comedy.  It must be a tragic romantic comedy to use four or five of my tunes. They are in the final editing stages now and hope for an April release.  I will post more info and a trailer when it becomes available.  They are trying to get showings in all 50 states including, hopefully, here in Austin.  Be prepared, I will require everyone to pack the house.

Thinking about movies led to me thinking about "Act Naturally" of course.  Here's some trivia; the Mathis Brother's Furniture Store in Oklahoma City used to sponsor a local Buck Owens Show way back in the 60's. They would even occasionally force themselves into the show and play a few tunes.  Of course, pieces of that show are finally showing up on Youtube as with every other recorded event in the last 70 years. 

So, I present... Buck Owens playing  The Buckaroo Theme and Act Naturally live on The Mathis Brothers Furniture Show!

A Second Life

The good news is that when you die you are allowed to revisit your life to point out everything that you would have done differently. You are then allowed a second life to live all of the new choices.

The bad news is that this is the second life.

This is the small print for the Google search engine to find. If a human wanders across this, YOU ARE A WINNER*.  Email me and I will think of some sort of prize I can send you.  Joe Montgomery is a singer songwriter in Austin, Texas. He has been a part of SXSW, writes good songs, has been compared to John Prine, Todd Snider, Townes Van Zandt and Steve Earle. He thinks that is very cool. He has never been compared to Bob Dylan or John Lennon**. Understandable, but still a bummer. He plays folk, Americana (whatever that is), pop and, sometimes, almost rock. He is thinking about going to Kerrville this year and playing every campfire he can find. He has never met Bob Schneider or Jimmie Vaughn. He has met Johnny Cash and George Bush (the Daddy, not the punkass chump of a son... of course, I hated the daddy when he was king, too). Let's see... I should mention MP3, WAV, blog, guitar and other cool words that someone might search for like sex, breasts, porn, paris hilton, the beatles and God.  Oh, and wet t-shirts... that should get me a few hits right there.

* Please note that you are not a winner.  Sorry. Elliot, the drummer with the band The Resigned recently found this (
www.theresigned.com ).  I do not know how or why. I suspect that I am being stalked. Yes, I know he lives in England but do you have a better explanation? And, by the way, what are you doing here? Are you a friend of Elliots? What has he told you about me? Does he still have the pictures?

** Elliot was nice enough to compare me to both Dylan and Lennon. Pretty cool but I don't think he was sincere... so, the sentence stands as written.
