Hold That Note

Here's a half-episode to bookend season 10. It's likely to be the last episode in this format for some time. Do all the things at LightningLucas.com Thanks for sharing some time with me, Lucas

Enjoy what may be the 2nd to last episode of Hold That Note... or at least is definitely the 2nd to last episode of season 10. (Which btw I'm not sure is actually season 10, but it's really hard to count, so I called it that). (Just checked, it turns out it's more like season 8 or 9, but the seasons are all relative in this case). Anyway, if you're interested in the Lightning Lucas ecosystem check...

Here's the 3rd of 5 episodes in an attempt to see whether I really want to get back into podcasting or not. Right now it looks like blogging may be more realistic at this stage of my life, but as I say in this episode, as well as in my last blog post... I'm kind of like a stem cell right now. .. who knows what could happen next. Check out all the things in this ecosystem by carefully perusing Ligh...

I really got going in this one, plus it's two of my best songs ever, so it's a good chance that you'll like this episode. I only put these two in a row because I'm going through the album and they are batting 3rd and 4th on the album. Check out LightningLucas.com for all things LL ... Best, and I hope to see you again soon. --Lucas--

Here are two weddings songs, one new and one old. My brother-in-law Yugo produced the first song and played all the instruments, although I wrote the lyrics and mixed and mastered it. Also, notably, the center section of the first song is a parody of the epic anti-war classic "The General" by Dispatch. Listen to it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdAlCXNPlCk The second song was a m...
