I’ve been watching the progress of our very own ptalbot aka Ghostly Beard with great interest. He’s released an EP and soon to release a full album with mixing mastering and production help from Cold Room and Hairy Monster Studios.

That’s awesome! Great work @ptalbot! We should do an interview on here in the near future to go with the release :slight_smile:

Thanks Emma! Going “out there” can be a weird thing, but there are enjoyable things too when you start to get some recognition and results… so all in all, it’s a fun ride. A time consuming, but fun ride.

Hey Bryan. It would be an honor! Although you should know that I don’t display my face anywhere. That’s part of my online persona, and people actually like it (there are people who are desperately trying to find a pic of my face believe it or not… :smiley:
I can do a puppet show though, and would be happy to discuss any subject, be it audio engineering or promotion (I’ve been deeply involved in that lately).

Probably a discussion on both! That’d be great! And we could easily do an email interview. No need to do video. Lol

I totally believe you! I looked around for an hour trying to find pictures of Stupdenous Wave (the Star Wars theory guy). Don’t know why. I may as well have been looking for an authentic portrait of Jesus. There just isn’t one (I don’t think).

So are you ever going to do a show?? Wouldn’t that cause some problems for your…um…face? lol. Wear a mask?

Deadmou5 says he put a mask on his face because he had stage fright and didn’t want to see his audience. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a musician doing the same thing but for the opposite reasons. That would certainly be a unique. :smiley:

If any of you are looking for something to check out, try “The Union Gospel”. They do a cool subway series in New York. Here’s their website…

I don’t gig, and I have no intention to do so. I love writing, recording, producing, arranging, mixing.
But I won’t perform live, did that in the past but don’t fancy that at all now… too old for this shit! :smiley:
I’ve been asked to do some Youtube shows though, and I will probably do a few, but I proposed to do a puppet show to keep people entertained!

Another common trick is to post your songs as a “lyric video” and just use some cool backgrounds as your lyrics come up on screen. Its a thought. Or show someone painting or trimming their beard. :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh, I’m not talking about videos. I’ve done many already, see my channel


I’m talking about live shows, with interviews, this is where the puppet will be useful… :grin:

#15

So are you going for a Puppet Show & Spinal Tap type deal?
