The "Pacific Coast Hellway" podcast is featuring some of my music lately (http://www.pacificcoasthellway.com/), and the producers got a pretty funny email:


Dear Mark,




Firstly, may I thank you for bringing Mike Errico to my attention. I

have really enjoyed the songs of his you have played and will be

buying his albums as soon as the bank tells me I can use my credit

cards again. However, I must object to the song "7 Bottles of Bristol

Cream" you played on the "all music" show at the turn of the year.

Come on! 7 bottles?!? "Tonight I drink you all"!!!!




When I was a student, I used to spend the summer vacation working in

Germany. One night I was sitting drinking with a group of friends when

some bottles of the afore mentioned beverage were produced. I won't

bore you with the gory details, but suffice it to say that not only

did I drink a full bottle, but I woke up in a different country

(Switzerland) with a bunch of builders from Poland who I swear I had

never met before. And to cap it all, I had a hangover that lasted a

month.




Please tell your listeners not to heed Errico's call. Bristol Cream

truly is the Devil's brew.




Yours in abstinence,




Jack in Scotland.

A play I music supervised has just opened off-Broadway. The New York Times liked it. I'm glad. I've been working with these people on and off for a couple of years.
