Where indeed is this elusive continuation, good sir Cooper? Don’t fight the musical within, the seed has been planted.

i am sitting here, with children throwing up all over the floor upstairs, watching the film adaptation of phantom of the opera, drinking wine, and thinking for the first time, maybe jim shouldn’t do this…

i think maybe it’s just the kids throwing up… can’t wait to here more (what happened to part II?)

Porp: Welcome to the wily world of Detholz, where everything is exactly as it seems!

‘Bab: I am currently devouring “The Historian.” Nice descriptions of places, scenery, etc. but where’s the GORE?!?

bp: Actually, my wife had an ear infection just a week or so ago!

Jim, I still haven’t had a chance to sink my teeth into this week’s clip, but I have to say it’s so great to hear you say “my wife”. (“My wife has an inner ear infection…”)

i am pretty much at a loss for comments about instrumental openings to musicals. Love the idea of you doing a vampire musical, though. just seems right. I will chime up once it gets into the “song portion” of the musical.

As for the book, I had mentioned it back with your previous vampire toned song a while back. It is a pretty fun read and has maybe the worst, most absurd ending in modern fiction. It does delve seriously into the history and legend surrounding vlad

Let there be no life bleeding on account of moi but please do continue the solo project. As long as you don’t let the western aspect of it turn it into another Paint Your Wagon, it will more than likely be amazing or at least amazingly entertaining.
Ok, I’ve never watched Paint Your Wagon but let’s just assume it’s not that good. Or is it? I think I have to watch it now.

I’ve only recently begun my journey into the world of Detholz! but so far I am very pleased to have found my way here.

Keep it foolish.

Porpoise: “Hideously promising…” I appreciate that turn of phrase.

Thank you for piping up– actually, I am jealous for the shy ones among you to speak up! The entire reason for the blog is to get input from listeners– I want to know what you love, what you hate, what you desire. This is the magic of Blog. Thank you for speaking up! We exist but to serve!

If anyone feels shy about weighing in, please don’t! I wouldn’t write this thing if I didn’t want input. As musicians, it’s virtually impossible to know if what we’re doing is of value without input from listeners.

In fact, I’ve been feeling like this Musical project has been bleeding the life out of me– that no one would give a damn if I finished it. Your comment alone helped give me the confidence to see the project through, for better or worse.

So, welcome! Please, folks, tell me what you think. There are no right answers here, and certainly no reprisals in store. I need to know if what I’m doing matters to you in the least.

Since the first venture into Musical Land was met with some approval, I’ll finish it. I can’t write to pander, but the blog is the testing ground. We’ve been doing Detholz! for 12 years, so I am stuck with experimentation.

The blog is set up to let you guys weigh in. If you feel like I’m going down a rabbit trail that’s worthless or sublime…. I want to hear you!

This project sounds hideously promising and I believe I am adequately excited about it.

Actually, “people with prehensile tails” probably makes that sound better than it is.

Appy polly loggies for lurking a while before getting the guts to post a comment.
