Hey, CARBON 14 did it in public for the first time on the 14th of the month?!?! Spinal-Tap-Esque!! "Where's The Duct Tape??!!" "Is that really sturdy enough??" "Shouldn't we, umm...cover that with a cloth or somethin'??" (Overheard by few but undeniable proof that though we are rock stars and sexual gods in our own rights, we are not in our early 20's anymore: "Dude (to a GUITARIST no less) turn that stage volume UP!!" and during sound check "Is this okay, or too loud for you to hear your vocals?" and "the fact that the sound seems to be coming from just over your head..well, as it should be!" and finding, at Wally World, WALL-E-esque cheat-sheet lighting that ROCKS! - and just like many fun things, all that fun for just two small batteries!! hehe..not to mention, along with what must be destined to be, our favorite - if not our biggest - fan! and inside a WallyWorld on a glorious and delightful afternoon in a small coastal town!...now, who'd've thunk it!?!? :) ~ Peace..from your dedicated and faithful paint-with-sound-freak 6/21/08~ C14 BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY CLIP ~ C14 ROSANNA CLIP ~ C14 SUPERSTITION CLIP ~ ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________ Dr. Dot (issue to be on newstands in May) ~ Jan 18 2008 4:07 AM:"WOW, the music sounds great Bob.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 1/14/2008
Band Website: myspace.com/musicrules4me
Band Members: ~~ Bob Whytock, with a tip-of-the-hat to the production expertise and help of Steve Spring and the Direct-to-disk Roland wondermachine allowing for the individual mp3's when all i did was sit, close my eyes, and play all in one continuous "take" as i have count-less nights which often found me still playing quietly, hours after Holly and Elizabeth were fast asleep (and i should have been...) recorded with no edits and all clams included (quite painful for me to post) though "live" is a snapshot of a moment in time..no 'photoshop' here...less "Father" of course. Initial bed live track recordings of "Father" deserves kudos to the warmth and support of our friends at Pavlov's music for the physical space and expertise and support of everyone in-and-around Green Street: Dave, Ben, Tony, again Steve, Paul, Carol for the photo documentation, and especially the soul and voice of my friend and "sister" Tammy Sturdevant and her amazing late husband, our good friend, and gift from - and recently to - God: Peter Sturdevant. Take a moment to witness a life well-lived...a celebration of a great man, amazing musician, friend, son, father, grandfather, husband, and quiet inspiration to many..and there is no better witness of Faith, Love, and of a life well lived anywhere: http://peter-sturtevant.memory-of.com/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rest in peace and In-Tune, Peter.

For instance, the last time I was in France, was to attend a most awesome wedding! I have been to most towns and places in the Northeast, and I will be placing some "life moments" as time permits..~Peace, Bob_________________________________________________________ ___ "It is not the desire to become famous, but the habit of being industrious, that enables us to produce a finished work" Marcel Proust______________________________________________________ ______ AND By the way: Great under-rated music movie, is "The Fabulous Baker Boys" and some have told me they see not only "character" resemblance to the "Jeff Bridges" character in me (and the "old bob" admittedly had a bit..yeah, certainly too much, of the Beau Bridges / brother character, too..but that was the "Old Bob" hehe:) and who comes up in my "Celebrity Morph"? Too Weird!! Take a look!

Morphs! above : Into Jeff Bridges - Click and Check It Out! - It's Freaky..and if you click on these links, they get you to that page~rcwSo as a musician, you should see / rent / own "The Fabulous Baker Boys" for the same reason most of us love "Spinal Tap" 'cause you just can't make up some of the stuff that happens on the road and with those you love (and loath at times..??:) making music with...and if you are not a musician or checking this great movie out for the music - hey it is Dave Grusin doing the real tasty piano playing! so that is reason enough!!!...I have two words: Michelle Pfeiffer!___________________________________________________ __________
