free music!!!!!! well, mostly free....

looking for some romantic music to play in the background at your next dinner party? need some music to get you going in the morning? ever felt the need to get your groove on but didn't know what to play? then have i got a deal for you.

as i'm quite proud of the music mixes i put together for sarah and brad's wedding, i wanted to share them with you, my loyal readers. you'll get two mp3 cds filled with 136 total songs:

at last - the quieter collection. designed to be played in the background during the reception dinner. a mix of jazz standards and more indie-leaning love songs.

dance monkey dance - my attempt at playing DJ. a little swing. a little 70s funk. a little 80s new wave. and not a chicken or line dance in sight.

but of course, there's a catch. you'll have to trust my mad mixing skillz - a song list will be included with the discs, but you won't know the songs until you get the package in the mail. so don't bother asking for a list. consider it part of the adventure.

so how do you get to have your very own personal copies to enjoy for years and decades to come? well, it's going to require you to do something nearly unheard of here in the 21st century: you have to write me some snail mail. yes, that's right, you're going to have to sit down with a piece of paper and handwrite me a letter. no, you're not imagining things - i said handwrite. step away from the computer screen, find that pen in the couch and write me a letter. what you write on is up to you; the only requirement is that it's at least one full page. a small price to pay for over seven hours of music.

once i receive your handwritten letter, i'll be sending you the discs. i'll provide the jewel cases and a cover and song list. you just provide some words.

my address is at the bottom of this message. hope to hear from some of you soon....

what??? handwritten notes??? good gravy, Thurman! Are you stuck in Burns' Civil War doc? what if I send you send some promised cd's (see previous comments) with a post-it saying something like "here you are, enjoy" stuck on one of the jewel cases? I stole your address by the way. Beware. I'm going to go all Jeremy on your ass. But no, don't give me anything in return...sheesh. Gotta write a letter...grumble, grumble, grumble...

Ok, I'm done with random silliness. Keep your eyes peeled on your mailbox.

handwritten letters....holy cats....
