I’ve heard FFHMRF’s album and it is a real humdinger. Brilliant old time music played like the Holy Modal Rounders used to do.

You have a good eye! I fixed those errors in the second run, which was why I even commented. I’d have been steamed had I missed more! Maybe mystery is more interesting then reality, but it was written as a poem, zine, letter to a friend and promotional tie in. FFHMRF is my band and our album is called City Music. I wrote liner notes about what its like to live in this city and liked it so much I made what you read. The liner notes is a longer version, as well as having some alterations. I’m about to make a third run and then I will probably move on to the next project. Thanks for noticing!

My apologies FFTHOMAF… I didn’t realize that was your signature… I thought it was the end of the piece. I’ll fix my wording in the post. Oh, and only spelling error is “2rd” towards the end. And I thought the sentence beginning with “Scam artists sitting… ” had a grammar funkiness to it ’cause you switch from plural to singular later in the sentence. Don’t mean to nitpick… just wanted folks to know I transcribed it as best I could to match the original. I really liked it! Do you have others you’ve put up?

Uh, its not unsigned, for the record. Glad you liked it and sorry for the grammar and spelling errors, which I still don’t see.
