NPR Tiny Desk Contest

NPR has something they call the Tiny Desk Contest. The point to the whole thing is to highlight talent. If you want to see some of the entrants, you can go here. The songs have to be original. It has been interesting and humbling to see some of the other entries. They look so professional!

We worked on ours for, what seemed like, forever. The one we finally sent in looks very amateurish. That and we both look like we would rather have a tooth pulled or that we really have to go to the bathroom. In reality, even though it was a song we wrote, we were just trying to remember all the words and chords.

Okay, stop your damned laughing! We tried. Next year we will do much better!

The thing is, at least we tried. In years past, we simply did not put ourselves out there. The only gigs we played where where other heard about us and invited us. Now we're being a bit more proactive about things.
