WFDU Recap!


Saturday morning my sister and I headed down to WFDU at Fairleigh Dickinson, to do a radio interview with Evan Toth, an awesome singer/songwriter who performs frequently around these parts and is the Radio Jockey for "Good Music" (it runs 9 a.m. to noon on Saturdays).

I got to chit-chat about the album and have a couple tracks played: "Supergirl", "Love as Tragedy: A Play in 3 Acts", "Isabelle" and "Second Skin." Then we did some CD giveaways which was pretty cool. It's kind of neat how people call in when they hear you on the radio... without people calling in, how else would you know anyone was listening, right?
Going to find some time to get videos on my YouTube from the Seattle and L.A. trips and also from this radio appearance. I am positively terrible at keeping up with this multi-media stuff. My sister is definitely a big help... with her gentle reminders and her tech-savvy. :)  . . . and her post-radio iced tea!
UPDATE: 
Check out a quick clip from that interview below!

New Song on MySpace!

Okkkayy, so it's official. "Love as Tragedy: A Play in Three Acts" is on the MySpace! Check it, homeslices: www.myspace.com/alfa

Lyrics here:

Love as Tragedy: A Play in 3 Acts

Act One was brilliant, we played our parts so convincing
and I still remember the lines.
You had me going on first dates and I fell
like Icarus falling away from the sun.

Chorus:
Now that it's all over and done, I notice
you just needed someone to play your damsel
Now that I can see things a little clearer
I feel sorry for the next girl
and you will always see, you'll always see love as tragedy.
You will always see, you'll always see love as tragedy.
Act Two was gripping, she came out of nowhere
Storm in a teacup, the irony bare.
And you seemed so honest, playing your part so convincing
but she is speaking my lines.
Chorus Interlude

Now that it's all over and done, I notice
you just needed someone to play your damsel
Now that I can see things a little clearer
I feel sorry for the next girl...

Now that it's all over and done, I notice
you just needed someone to play your damsel
Now that I can see things a little clearer
I feel sorry for the next girl
and you will always see, you'll always see love as tragedy.
You will always see, you'll always see love as tragedy.

So don't let me sit through another minute
'Cause Act Three's the part that I couldn't get right.
And you'll be persistent, 'til somebody gets it
but I don't intend to find out tonight.
