On this episode of The Real Congregation, I geek out about the upcoming albums by Tom Waits and Alice Cooper, freak out over how good Hamell On Trial is in concert, and debate whether or not I should play The Monkees Present album in full (spoiler: I don’t play the album in full). “Stay Up Late” - Talking Heads “Bad As Me” - Tom Waits “I’ll Bite Your Face...
I’m at the point in my Monkees fandom where I bought a sealed vinyl copy of “Pool It”. I’m also at the point in said fandom where I was crushed to unwrap it and find that it was cracked in half.
New album out by Torrentz. I do a little something... →

Some recordings might surface later. We’ll see how much I like them in a week :)
Pretty sure I could watch this for hours.
Don’t tempt me.
Buy a man a fish and he eats for a day.
Teach a man how to fish and he eats for a lifetime.
Teach a man to create an artificial shortage of fish and he eats steak.
My god.
I just saw some of the horrific footage of what happened at the Pukkelpop festival. My heart goes out to all involved. Condolences.
If you’re in Orlando, I WILL NOT be appearing at the SummerStock festival this weekend for personal reasons. Sorry. Have fun if you’re going, everyone.
Ever see a musician that was so good that you...
Are you a spotify user?

(This is the latest email I’ve sent out to my mailing list. I’ve reposted it here just in case you might be interested in the contents and aren’t subscribed to it. Thanks!)
Hi everyone! I’m super excited to bring you all of this news. I’ve been slacking a little bit on the updates, but it’s because I’ve been busy doing promotion for my new album,...
Marc With a C's "Share The Covers, Bitch!"... →
Back in 2006, I released my first ever collection of covers by “various artists”. It was called Share The Covers, Bitch!, and it consisted of things that I mostly recorded for fun without ever really intending to release. This means that it was not only one of the most schizophrenic things I’ve ever put out, but it’s also one of the most defiantly lo-fi releases in my...

My excitement level for moving to a new house is probably proportionally similar to my neighbors excitement level when it comes to never, ever hearing me rehearse in the garage in the middle of the night again.
I’m sure they’re all like “oh, good, it’s 3:09 in the morning, thank god he’s running through “drunk classic rock fans” for the second time...
Suddenly realized that there was absolutely no reason to show what I’m listening to on last.fm. Problem solved. Keeping the account so I can continue managing the Marc With a C page, but otherwise… I think I’m just past the age of needing to use that type of thing. Feels like a digital version of scrawling your favorite bands name onto your notebook in school, which is cool and...

Awww, thanks Starf!
Also - I know that the short running time is adverse to what some people like in albums, but besides a very select few double albums, I just prefer my pop albums to be shorter. I don’t think I’ve made a record that ever went past 40 minutes (RetroLowFi compilation doesn’t count as it’s a different animal altogether). But, thanks again, my man. Been...
