I want to hear from you!

April 14, 2008

I would really love to hear your answers to one of the questions I was asked (this is also a cheap way to get out of posting something myself, but seriously, I want to know). So, I ask you, from your perspective, what is the best part about living in <insert country of choice>? Live [...]

Video Wednesday: Texas Lightning

April 9, 2008

I didn’t get around to shooting any new video for you this week, so I thought I’d present another German country band, Texas Lightning, singing, “No no never.”  This was a huge hit two years ago and was Germany’s entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006.
