I'll be playing at the Open Mic Night at the upcoming Division of Planetary Sciences meeting. I've kicked around what song I should do, with a few possibilities out there. One that I considered but probably won't do is The Astronomers Song. So I figured I'd record it and post it below. While I was fumbling through trying to record it I also lapsed into another song of mine that it reminds me of, Girl Next Door. That one took me several takes, I'm posting the only take that I actually finished. Both were done live to glorious one-track mono, using the laptop's microphone and Audacity. Both of these songs date back to the early '90s, and they've both been among my favorite originals. Neither have been performed live by any of my bands, but both appeared on In-Jokes with Myself.
Enjoy or "Enjoy".
