Listen for songs from "Another Nevermore" that will be added to Tonkuhle Radio 103.5 FM in Hildesheim, Germany!

Whahooo!! Pete Johnson was kind enough to post the video for "Never Mind My Mind" on vimeo. Please check it out!!

The CD has started to pick up sales in Europe suddenly! I've had a couple of sales in Sweden, Switzerland, and Germany recently! Thanks! Tack! and Danke!!!

I've also had a little spurt of iTunes action. Hopefully, we'll get the bugs out of the video and it will be uploaded soon.

In the meantime... watch for me around L.A. and in Germany in March!

I've added a few songs, expanded the song clips, added the flash player, changed the scenery, added some pictures, and updated the bio section.

Last night I hit the Pegasus in Bainbridge Island. What a neat little town on the water!
The folks at Pegasus were extremely nice and I got to play about a third of the night on their open mic night. Hopefully I can come back and play here again on a regular night next summer... I may be able to wrangle another gig or two in the area as well... fingers crossed!

Ah! 4th of July on the Hood Canal was once again a great time. The locals are very, very nice. I got to play with Robin from South Africa which was a unique treat.
The whole night I spent rockin' the beach while in direct view of a beautiful sunset over the Cascades and every manner of fireworks you could imagine... for miles!
Next stop... Bainbridge Island...
Washington is nice & green....

Ah what a day!
For the past 7 months (off more than on) my very talented and generous friends Pete Johnson & Brady Majors have been laboring on a video for "Never Mind My Mind". Today it went up 10 notches...
I got down to Santa Monica today to shoot some more video. Jeez! It was a real live camera crew. Real lighting. Real actors. Real everything you'd find in Hollywood. I couldn't believe it.
I'm a lousy actor. In fact, I'm not an actor. I can barely act like a musician, but these folks put me right at ease... (maybe too much at ease, I fell asleep on the couch in the middle somewhere)... they made it fun!
So much went on today...
Clinton went jogging up and down the path on the Palisades with Ric along side... but Ric was sporting probably 65-70 pounds of Steady-Cam and trying to keep up!
Nitai keeping in character despite simultaneously having to drink wine, eat chocolate, and have a little girl roll on the floor making faces at her.
Standing in the street with Clinton below the balcony. Clinton dressed in his jacket and slacks carrying a bottle of champagne and a dozen roses. Probably 50 people walked by us and wished him luck in one way or another. All the women were smitten. It was hilarious. Teenage boys were horrified. Everyone had a comment. Even better, during one take when Nitai appeared at the balcony and beconed him in, a crowd that had gathered across the street erupted in cheers and applause.
There were a lot of memories made today. For me at least.
And we finished the filming part today!
These folks put in a loooong day and worked very hard for barely more than the love of putting stuff down on film and I can't thank them enough for it.
So to the crew: Jeremy, Michelle (I hope your house recovered!), Ric, Jay, and especially Pete & Brady
And the cast: Nitai & Clinton
I can't thank you all enough for all you've done for me!
I hope everyone who reads this hires these guys. They're amazing...
And once I get links for everybody I'll post them...
Thanks again guys!!!!!!!

Firstly, the guestbook is off again because I racked up a new record 23 trash messages in one day... sorry.
Secondly, I'm on iTunes! I don't know when it happened, but you can now download songs or the whole CD on iTunes!
Thirdly... did I mentionthe new album is on CD Baby?

My new CD 'Another Nevermore' has arrived!!!!!
It's available at CD Baby at this location:
http://cdbaby.com/cd/chuckcrowe It will also be available in other online locations shortly and, of course, at the live shows!




Oh yeah, the Guestbook is back on for your Guesting pleasure!

Well, I had to turn the spam magnet... I mean guestbook off again after receiving a deluge of porn offers in English, Greek, and Russian. So it'll be off for a while and then I'll turn it on again. For now you'll just have to use the email link. Sorry for the inconvenience...

I have posted some new photos from the UK and Paris. There are also a couple more sound clips from the upcoming EP & CD. Enjoy!

Ok, guestbook is back on. Guest away. Let's see what happens...

Howdy!
I've temporarily turned off the guestbook. Sorry about that. I kept getting wierd spam messages about random and sometimes questionable stuff. I'll turn it on after a few weeks to see if that works.

In the meantime. Enjoy the new audio clips from the upcoming CD that I just added!!!

I'm considering turning off the guestbook for a while. Not that I don't want to hear from you!! Don't think that!! But it seems that spammers have a burning desire to post their garbage there. I don't know what they are thinking... but if it gets much worse I'm going to shut off the guestbook for a time...

Howdy!! Well, I've added a show at C&D Welcome Cafe in Redondo Beach on November 5, 2005. My good friend Ileana will also be playing so please come out if you can!! See the calendar section for details.
Also, I've updated the recording of "Coattails Of The Wind". Check it out!!!

Come and see me doing a one hour set at UnUrban Cafe in Santa Monica on Saturday, September 10 7:00 P.M.
If you miss that one there is always the SouthBay Music Scene Songwriters Showcase at Papasito's in El Segundo on Sunday, September 11 at 3:00 P.M. Plenty of other great acts to see as well. Both shows are all ages and no cover!
Check out the calendar for details.

Ok, I'm a bit late. The shows in Flagstaff went well and thank you all that hung out for them!!

Seattle and Port Angeles, Washington were great times too!

Now that I'm back in L.A. I'll be focusing on the elusive CD which I could have sold over the last road trip. Hope to have something for ya'll soon... Stay tuned!!

I've just added a show at Anthony's Restaurant in El Segundo on July 10 as a part of the South Bay Music Scene Songwriters Showcase (say that three times fast!). There will be lots of cool people playing and plenty to eat & drink! Please check out the details on the calendar page.

I have just added a show at Unurban Coffeehouse on Saturday, September 10 at 7:00 P.M. Of course you are welcome! Check the calendar for details.

I will be playing Borders in Los Gatos, CA on July 16th. Please see the Calendar for details!

I stole a gig in Flagstaff a couple of weeks ago. Someone didn't show up to The Campus Coffee Bean so I was able to play in their place! Management liked me well enough to invite me back which I am THRILLED about!! I was also able to talk Bookmans into letting me play! So if you're in Flagstaff in early August you may be able to catch one of my shows. Please see the calendar for details.

I've put up a new and improved mix for "That's Where I'll Go" for all those who are interested. I haven't decided if there will be a mix beyond this one yet. But I'd love to hear your feedback! Thanks!!!
Chuck
