RPM Challenge 2010 - The Locksmith

Posted on January 31, 2010 with 0 comments
so, every year, the RPM Challenge takes place in February. The idea is to totally write an album - 10 songs or 35 min whichever comes first - in February, the shortest month. Last year I put together 9 songs inspired by the old beer commercial where they sent a "winner" to "Paradiso Lluvioso." I had this joke (which always seemed funnier at the END of a three hour set) with the greatest drummer ever (Frank Colagiovanni), where I would say "It means 'rainy paradise,' Frank!" and laugh.

Well, I thought it was funny...so, the titles of all the songs on Paradiso Lluvioso all start with that phrase

IT seems just like a dream (what a day)

MEANS justify the ends

RAIN is the same

E a b

PARA que no tengas sed

DICE

FRANK advice

and then I threw in a song called "ETC"

this year, I am going with a theme instead of a phrase, so I'm asking anyone who has a word or phrase that would go along with an album entitled "The Locksmith" to make any and all suggestions here or at dannrussomusic@aol.com. No matter what it is, I'm game. (and no, I'm not covering Synchronicity :-P)

peace, Dann
