Clint Buck: A Man Among Men

It's hard to know where to even begin when you talk about a guy like Clint Buck.  I can say a few things about Clint, some of which are true, and some of which are just barely not true as to make you think there's a good story behind the myth.

Clint Buck is the kind of guy and friend who you could call up and say: "Clint, it's a beautiful Saturday so we are going to go look for this treasure I heard about that's buried somewhere."

And Clint would say: "Well, okay.  First we're going to need a map, some safari hats, and a couple of sturdy shovels."

The point is, Clint is the kind of person in your life who will indulge whatever dream you have--whether it be playing bass on all the little dinky songs I've written from the past ten years (HOLY CRAP, CLINT, WE'VE BEEN PLAYING TOGETHER FOR A DECADE) or being my wingman when I was trying to get a very special woman to notice me--Clint Buck is an extraordinary man of music, law, and character and I'm proud to wish him a very happy birthday!

Happy Holidays! Update on Rescue

Happy Holidays!  I wanted to take a moment to write a special message, update the website, and let you know about some exciting things for this month as well as the new year.  First, I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving gorging yourself on turkey and watching your favorite NFL team lose while your drunk uncle made questionable assertions about Syrian refugees.  Thanksgiving means friends and family--certainly there is a reason those are both "F" words.

Second, the venerable Clint Buck and myself will be playing a special Christmas show on Friday, December 11th at J&O's Cantina here in San Antonio, TX.  We will be playing as our special Christmas band: The Reindeer Games.  Come out and hear our take on your favorite Christmas tunes and feel free to sing along!  Make a joyful noise!

Finally, in October we laid down drum tracks with the incredible Mark Henne for Rescue at my home studio The Bear Haus.  Danger Invites Rescue is a 3 album/EP home recording project I started in 2008. You can visit the Bandcamp link to pick up a CD or high quality digital download of Danger and Invites.  Rescue, the final recording in the series, is scheduled to be released next year.  This recording will be the most developed and full-sounding recording I have ever made.  I am getting a lot of help from my very talented musical friends to complete it and we will need your help and support to get it pressed to VINYL!  We will be looking at some crowdfunding options with very cool rewards, so please stay tuned and be saving your shekels to get something good from what we are cooking up.

As always, THANK YOU for supporting independent music.  Whenever Clint and I play out as Buck Webb or The Sleuth, we are always thrilled to see familiar faces come out to hear new songs and corny jokes.  So please, for your holiday shopping, consider picking up a CD, download, or sticker from me or your other favorite local band or musician.  It's a cool gift and you'll be supporting better art!  Thanks again and have a safe, fun Christmas and New Year!
