My favorite thing for the longest time was Fast Times 80s night at One Eyed Jacks in New Orleans.  This is a tribute to those nights, an all-organic version intending to get as close to how I felt on that dance floor with the speakers shaking your teeth. 

I DJ'd this song every time I guested there and every one of our ActionActionReaction nights. It always makes me happy. I performed live on the same stage at Jacks, many wonderful times with my bands The Public, and Phantom Fiction. There are no synths on the track as a tribute to that experience. Everything beside the bass track is my very first guitar, a hohner acoustic, using modelers and fx.  

Guest stars on this one are two very good friends, my ever-talented wife Elizabeth singing, and my long-time friend Dustin Prince who is a fantastic Drummer working in Los Angeles and had the strange misfortune of being drawn into the New Orleans goth scene with me in our band, New Dawn Fades back in the fetid and fecund 90s.  

So this one is for Jacks and its crew. Good times were had, see you at The Goat. 

lots of my favorite things in one place, hope you enjoy it.
