Two sethifus digital 7"s and a song about guitars!

I wrote a song about guitars used as decorations and how I'd like to take them all home to play.






I also made 2 digital 7" records!

They would be records if I had a bigger following, money, and a label who was interested.

The first is the Pumpkin digital 7"!






Side A: The Pumpkin (album version)




Side B: Jack-o-Lantern (CASIO version)





If a record label decided to start making physical records of this 7" (say Paper + Plastick or Third Man Records, maybe), and I got to do them exactly like I'd want to, I'd put a few real pumpkin seeds from pumpkins I grew inside each record.



I think if they were thoroughly dried out first they would be okay in the middle of vinyl or plastic. For a long while anyway. And if people bought the records soon enough, they might be able to slit the record open (like the Dead Weather's Triple Decker Record), get the seeds out, and plant them to grow their own sethifus-strain pumpkins!

Here's the youtube video playlist version:




The second digital 7" is the Four-Leaf Clover digital 7"!






Side A: Four-Leaf Clover




Side B: I'm Looking Over a Four-Leaf Clover That I Overlooked Before




This record would have Four-Leaf Clovers inside of it!






I don't know if the records would bring people luck, but it couldn't hurt!


Here's the youtube video playlist version:







You can find both digital 7"s on my bandcamp page!

They are only $1 each!


Third Man Records, any interest?

Day 301 - Jack-o-Lanterns 2015! - 10/30/2015

Today's Thing-a-Days are these:



Princess Melawesome, Jobean, and I all got a pumpkin to carve!

Here's mine:





I went the traditional route. This is a pumpkin I grew in my backyard pumpkin patch!



Here's Princess Melawesome's:




It's name is Thimble! It is also a pumpkin from my patch!



And here's Jobeans!




It's a super-awesome wolf! It's a-howling! This pumpkin was from a trip to a commercial pumpkin patch. It's much bigger than the ones I grew.





Happy Halloween from pondercouch.com!

Day 254 - Turnip Jack-o-Lantern - 9/12/2015

I've read a couple of places that the original Jack-o-Lanterns were made of turnips and other more-common vegetables than pumpkins.

So I made one as today's Thing!







I read that it's better to cut the bottom off than the top, so I did that.




I scooped out the insides with a teaspoon. It smelled very earthy.





It ended up smaller than I thought it would.




I set it on a tea light candle.





But the more I put the turnip around the candle, the less oxygen it got and it started to go out.




I think it turned out pretty cool for my first turnip Jack-o-Lantern. The site I read said that it will only last 3 to 5 days.

I was hoping it would last until Halloween.

Halloween and Death walk hand in hand!








Here's a cover song I did! It was originally by Harley Poe (http://harleypoe.com/) and it's about Death! Death the character. I like Harley Poe a lot. They're my favorite band that sings about horror movies and awful things.

The Jack-o-Lantern sculpture in the video was hand-crafted by the lead singer of Harley Poe: Joe Whiteford (http://joewhiteford.blogspot.com/) . You can find more things he made for sale here: http://joewhiteford.storenvy.com/

Happy Halloween Month!

Halloween is coming...
