Hey Rosetta! - I've Been Asleep For A Long, Long Time

This is supposed to be Metal Monday. Well let's be honest for a moment, there are no rules around here. Rules are for the birds. Please direct any complaints you might have to this brick wall.

I slept for about 13 hours last night. Straight. On the couch. TKO'd. No dinner. No Superbowl. No writing. Suffice to say I was tired. Sleep didn't really happen for me apart from a couple hours nap here for there from about Thursday. Starting to think I have too much on the go.

Today is catch-up day. El Bloggo is now good to go. Sort of. Still have a few Best Of's to get to further down the road.

In the meantime Tim Baker & Co. are bringing me back to life. Hope they're enjoying whatever it is they've been up to since December. Probably a lot of not much.

Hey Rosetta! - The Simplest Thing

I remember seeing Tim Baker play for the first time at the Wilser's Room many moons ago, a quiet little songwriter session right around the time when the first EP came out. It was a game-changer. The whole room was mesmerised with what we were hearing.

Now after more than a decade of traveling the world the band is taking a well-deserved break. It's not really a surprise, they've been planning their escape since the beginning. Maybe a couple years down the road we'll catch them at a reunion show or on a random corner in St. John's would seem fitting.

This song stuck with me then and still done many years later. No video for this one. Hit play, close your eyes, and go wherever it takes you.
