<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Just wanted to say Happy Birthday to Saturated and WildHoneyPie. I would like to do blogs on everyones Birthday but there are just too many members lol. These guys have been around this site since the beginning and that means a lot to me. So thank you guys for being a part of Mixposure and thank you for your friendship!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I also wanted to do a big Get Well Soon to Gary Hart. I had not seen Gary around here for awhile so I sent him an email today to check up on him. The poor guy blew his back out and has been laid up for several weeks. He said he is almost back to normal, well as normal as Gary can be <img title="Smile" src="http://www.mixposure.com/include/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" />, and he will be back to Mix soon. Get better my friend!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Finally a big congratulations to DevoDale for being Mixposure's newest Mod!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dazed</span></p>

<p>so some lyrics tell you what it is....and you find what they said to be total.......but some songs find you then distract or leave you thinking superficial sarcasm....</p><p>"the way to find your audience" i'm taking to the men....say what you experience and present it not just as mail....use your pride of your knowledge, vocabulary and all to present the pride "ITSSELF" Say not things that tie your tongue and lead to dispair and turn you down and in, rather speak what you experience as you cry out....... in lifes road</p><p>in lifes road.......that's the song i am talking about......you can find us in many ways and forms of laughter and sorrow.....make us not to bow down before god but before you</p><p>joel tuttle</p><p>me i usually don't sing but rather present jazz so as that my vocals will not distract...</p><p>pure sound........purity is not such a popular thing as pompous......but it's clear ,it does not cause people.......the world goes on around it.....and it makes us to get our way around people better....songs from the heart are just confusion so don't mistake that song for "in lifes road"</p><p>me: i find myself so in love sometimes and laugh at myself and cry when i can....i am a very broken man, my life just was lead astray but i can think every thought as if it is the turning point that i grip and make.......that is myself that does this, bones , response , love,and all..</p><p>write sad songs......but never speak down on yourself...tell us rather...........WELL, :I've run out of time....here's my new song...........<a href="http://www.mixposure.com/index.php?t=mixposure_song_player&song_id=19669&band_id=2035"><span style="font-size: large;">RUMORS</span></a></p><p> </p><p> </p>
<p>Firstly I have to say sorry I haven't been around here lately - actually i haven't been around anywhere much but that doesn't make me feel less guilty for asking for help <img title="Smile" src="http://www.mixposure.com/include/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" /></p><p>I have an online petition running to help protect the dolphins in the Moray Firth (Scotland), which are under threat from gov't plans to allow seismic surveying - all the details are on the petition site but I REALLY need your signatures (please!)</p><p>The petition is here: <a href="http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/save-the-moray-firth-dolphins/">http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/save-the-moray-firth-dolphins/</a></p><p>These dolphins can be seen from the shore and are in a so called 'protected area' but this doesn't seem to make much difference - We welcomed these wonderful creatures into the bay and encouraged them to live, breed and fish in a protected area we created for them - now we risk driving them away (or worse, physically hurting them with the testing which can disrupt and damage their sonar and therefore their ability to fish and feed).</p><p>OK, rant over <img title="Yell" src="http://www.mixposure.com/include/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-yell.gif" border="0" alt="Yell" /></p><p>I also have a video at YouTube that we took earlier in the year, set to one of the tracks from my CD...</p><p> <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OQGSrh54K6M&rel=1"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OQGSrh54K6M&rel=1" wmode="transparent"></embed></object></p><p> YouTube link is: <a href="Protect the Dolphins in the Moray Firth (Paul Oakley) Oakley</p><p>PS This isn't a political thing, it's about wildlife, ecology and the planet!</p>

Do an album they said! So I did, and here it is......http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Ddigital-music&field-keywords=Star4mation
"Goblins and Galaxies" (that's what I called it) was great fun to do. I learnt loads of things on the way from all my friends here. It was hard work (I think the CD artwork took nearly as long as the recording did!!)
Big thanks go to Nigel Potter, Mike Cooley, and Dace Yates, for it was they who said I should do this Album, and without who's help and advice I would have never got this project off the ground!
So thanks guys and you never know, I might do another one some day!!
Steve:)
Update: New single "Ice Caves of Titan" available at Amazon Now.
