Spintown 10 With Kata Hay

Kata Hay is a singer/songwriter who is using YouTube to share her bubbly personality, while bringing a little country to the interwebs.

These are the questions that were too hard hitting & controversial for the other video I posted with Kata (Kata Hay Interview). Honestly this is just something to remind you that I'm still alive. It will hopefully tide you over until my next "Spintown Interviews..." or "Pain For Laughs" video is uploaded.

You may think there's no wrong or right answers when you're being asked an opinion, but you would be wrong. The theme this time is candy. Find out Kata's Spintown Score, and figure your own out as well. Then tell me how many you got right by leaving a comment.

Songwriting Cycle #2

If you missed out on the first Songwriting Cycle I'll give you the gist of it. When you sign up, you submit a songwriting challenge that will be given to a random person, and agree to take on a random challenge that someone else creates. Not everyone is eligible to participate. Edric has put some limitations on who is allowed to participate.

Anyone who has submitted at least two official songs in Song Fu and/or SpinTunes is welcome to throw their hat into this particular ring. I know, I know -- there are other songwriting sites out there. Why am I discriminating against Song Fight and Nür Ein and others? Well -- I really like the sort of challenges that have come out of Song Fu and SpinTunes. They’re a particular kind of class of challenges, and I know that veterans of Song Fu and/or SpinTunes will understand that sensibility. (And if someone has submitted two official songs -- not shadows -- then I know that they have the experience of meeting this kind of a challenge under this kind of a deadline -- I do really want the Cycle to be without gaps or holes.) - Edric

I disagree with not allowing Nur Ein participants to join in, because Nur Ein has similar challenges that take place on a MORE difficult schedule than SpinTunes or Masters Of Song Fu. But it's Edric's baby, so he's the boss. I guess it's an incentive to compete in the next SpinTunes (which will probably start late June), because there is still no news on when/if there will be another Masters Of Song Fu. You can find more details about the Songwriting Cycle #2 on Edric's website.

Podcast x2

A new episode of my favorite podcast was recently uploaded. The Comedic Genius Of Martin And Lewis: Episode 77 with Joanne Dru can be downloaded, and there's show notes on the blog.

A friend of mine told me Nathan Fillion answered one of my Twitter questions on Nerdist Podcast #65. It's near the end (1:25:35), and only part of my question was read & answered, but I thought that was cool.

I have what will probably be a long, kinda ranty post for Wednesday, but don't know if I'll post it here or on the Music Videos page yet.
