Shockwave Rider + American Red Cross

Hello,

To all ten of you who read this.

"The Shining", which is a brilliant rock-n-roll CD by a band called Shockwave Rider, is now available for $10 at CDBABY.

The link is http://cdbaby.com/cd/tiredorbit1

Better yet, until further notice, all proceeds (or at least six dollars out of the ten) go to the American Red Cross. Which means you get a CD, and the American Red Cross gets money for helping victims of the hurricane.

Sample songs are available at the Tired Orbit Records main page, which is http://www.thetiredorbit.com, as well as on the CDBaby page.

This is a good thing that CDBaby is doing. Plus, they have lots of other ultra-independent, almost-home-made CD's from people you have never heard of. I recommend Tulsa Drone (another great band from Richmond, who've gotten props from high places), the brilliant Art of Fighting, and Flashing Red Airplane. Dunno if any of these bands are donating their profits as well... There will be a note on the left side of the screen which says something about "All Profits to Red Cross", if they are.

Feel free to pass this note around. It will give us a reason to wrest all of the remaining Shockwave Rider CDs from Phil Nunnally's sphere of influence.

Soon to be available via CDBaby, also for Red Cross purposes: those Lourds of the Ring CD's. With me, of all people, singing.

The "tired orbital" and "tiers of prog" projects will not be available until 2018. Sorry.
