Cheeseburger Wrapping Paper of the Day: Just in time for Christmahanakwanzika, Sarah Fay and Justin Colt’s Gift Couture — “a start-up creative and innovative wrapping paper company” — introduces the mouth-watering Cheeseburger wrapping paper set.
They’re still several thousand dollars shy of their Kickstarter goal from making this available to the wrapping public, but, for a pledge of $20 or more (plus $8 for international shipping), they’ll send you one complete set of Cheeseburger wrapping paper.
$40 gets you 2 complete sets, and $60 gets you 3. $300 gets you 10, plus a “hand-crafted golden cheeseburger trophy.”
Come on. You know you want that trophy.

My kids are starting to notice I’m a little different from the other dads. “Why don’t you have a straight job like everyone else?” they asked me the other day. I told them this story: In the forest, there was a crooked tree and a straight tree. Every day, the straight tree would say to the crooked tree, “Look at me…I’m tall, and I’m straight, and I’m handsome. Look at you…you’re all crooked and bent over. No one wants to look at you.” And they grew up in that forest together. And then one day the loggers came, and they saw the crooked tree and the straight tree, and they said, “Just cut the straight trees and leave the rest.” So the loggers turned all the straight trees into lumber and toothpicks and paper. And the crooked tree is still there, growing stronger and stranger every day.

This is so cleverly hilarious.  I love it, it’s pretty perfect.

Here is my newest song Passenger.  Just a quick one take live recording.  Can’t wait to get started on recording the new album, this song will be on it.

Also, I’m working with an amazing artist named Jennifer Maidment from the UK to use a beautiful drawing of hers for the album art.

Winter Updates

Few updates that I wanted to share…

-I purchased www.tonimelton.com!  Now when you go to www.tonimelton.com you’ll see my tumblr blog. 

-I became a member of BMI!  I’m going to get my songs registered so I can receive royalties when my songs are played.  So official!

-I got approved for a kickstarter account.  I haven’t completed setting it up yet but when I do it will be a fund raising project to help me record my first CD.  There will be really cool gifts for those donating!  More on that later..

-As mentioned before, I’m working on my debut album!  It will feature re-recorded versions of Evermore, My Darlin’ and many more.  I’m really excited about this and I hope you are too!

-I’m taking a short hiatus from gigging so I can get organized for recording.  I’ll be back out there soon though!

Thanks for reading - HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Todd Melton and I had a great time playing at Common Grounds. Thanks to all you guys that came out!
