My band, Joe Benoit and the Regulars, will play Lakeside Lounge tomorrow @ 9:00pm .

no Cover, great jukebox, photobooth - Otto's can't have all the fun.

This place may just be the perfect venue for rock and roll

which is exactly what we play - nothing more, and certainly nothing less.

We apologize for the lack of super fancy photos and glitzy stylish...

I just got back from my brother's wedding weekend. mostly family. a simple elegant occasion with about 60 people. not too shabby.

in the meantime, an old friend listened to my music and asked if I'd cover a song for here. I certainly will.

Finished it yesterday.

I Hung My Head

Enjoy

So this is song for everyone that's a bit pissed off with the current state of affairs in the Gulf. No matter how concerted our effort to change, it seems those select few that run our country (publicly and privately) are conducting

Has the US opened it to the public to come with ideas? The UK did it I think regarding finding a new source of power

Thanks for chiming in Tayler!

Here in the States, most companies want to keep a stranglehold on their bottom line. So the problem with opening up the energy debate to the general public is that a good solution may result but it could cause a specific industry to lose money. Let's say a very specific one like crude oil refinieries. Those business owners then pay big bucks to send an army of lobbyists to confront the policy makers with skewed facts and figures coupled with free dinners and handouts to vote for the best interest of those that own the oil refineries. Then the proposal gets sunk or is changed so that the oil refineries don't suffer - often at the expense of the greater good.

This is exactly what happened with our Healthcare bill.

My proposal is for the US Homeowner to create their own alternative energy sources then connect them with a grid.

I'm having a meeting tomorrow with a company that specializes in IT networking and the LEED certification (green laws) in NY. I'll be talking to Geroge about the idea of really pushing LEED certification and what the potential is for these buildings to install alternative power grids. Then the day where they share that power with each other and drive down the cost of electricity would help further our independency from fossil fuel based energy.

I'm really happy right now - after two weeks of psychologically wandering through the woods. it's not a job - but just some satisfaction.

This is a track from my upcoming album (been working on it for two months now).

The song is a Work in Progress as it hasn't been mixed at ALL and I just used corrective compression for seating the mono...

New cover tune.

"Teeth" by Lady Gaga - revisioned by HIMES

TEETH

Did all the production and tracking. I didn't master it, it's a cover so why?

I also revised the lyrics to suit the change in perspective

I wrote this to honor my grandfather, Herb himes.

A man, who lived on Midwood St, returned from his tavern one night, alight with spirit.
His footpath, clearly light, was infiltrated by a shining black cockroach.
The man, undeterred, stooped to the insect and implored,

"Cockroach! Why are you here, cockroach!"

The arthropod stopped, stared at the man and proclaimed,

"Why, I am here to...

So quick update. I'm in the middle of recording my first solo effort. Which will likely turn into a band and such.

During the instrument tracking last week, I lost a song - or rather the schedule did not allow me to record it. It was prioritized last and, well, it got dropped. and in retrospect - it's not a great fit for this album...
