The Man in the Van: JJ Newberry
http://www.oggybleacher.com/2010/06/jj-newberry.html
Tuesday, June 8, 2010. Here's a tune that deserves a better debut than an OJ and Absolute Tuesday night. But the world ain't perfect and with the acid rain winter on the march I think we'd all better smoke them if'n we got them. The chords are C, F, G, with a strategic A minor and E minor thrown in for that melancholy sound. My buddy bought a dog there. But it died of Guinea Worm. You could order a grilled cheese sandwich. Chicken soup to keep you warm. We used to play Nurf football. Where have you gone.

Friday, March 22, 2013. Lanny Barby Tribute Song. Maybe pop culture has finally caught up to my bottomless irreverence and disdain. I'm trying to be honest from now on.and also catch the zeitgeist of my generation.in a timeless way. I think the only thing an artist can do is be true to himself and his age.hopefully completely. Fuck her.because I've got problems. Maybe I'll make a Kickstarter campaign. Add this to the list of songs inspired by erotic actresses. I'm not immune to any of it. If you got fuck...

http://www.oggybleacher.com/2015/07/hammock.html
Friday, July 31, 2015. Now I have everything. Rear Hook: One hole was too high to put the nut on so I drilled another through the curtain holder. But hanging it required some serious thought, and it turned out I over-thought the whole thing and bought a bunch of eye bolts and carabiners and rope, but in the end only needed to drill one hole in the back and hang an S hook from the front. Front Hook: Merely bent the lip low so I can put the hook in. Double strength so it will hold anyone. There is just eno...

http://www.oggybleacher.com/2015/03/terlingua-waltz.html
Monday, March 9, 2015. This is the price of the Cowboy life. Writing songs about memories in dusty towns where laughter from bars reminds you of roads diverged in the wood. Terlingua Waltz. Is dedicated to someone who will probably never hear it. To borrow a line from the Gary White tune:. Caught in my fears. Blinking back the tears. I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near. I can't find the strength to type out the lyrics to this. The Mines are all empty in Terlingua Town. Gold in her hair.
