Bowman's music thread - Loving on Ithaca and otherwise!

[Liza]

These cracked me the hell up when I saw them on tumblr last night. And like I said in chat at the time, wow, I'm going to be subjected to hearing the girl one every December 3rd for the rest of my life, I'm sure.
...then again, I'm not so sure I mind.
Anway good job, Bowman, those are adorable.

[Bowman]

RSVP to this if you can:

The official SXSW appearance has been scheduled for March 14 at The Velveeta Room! See you badgeholders at 8:00 pm that day.

Wow am I tired of reposting this already. Probably because Tumblr fritzed up and wouldn't let me do a proper photo post. I'll repost tomorrow.

I was wondering if the song The Roamin' Bowman, from Ithaca, was addressed to her.

This was her response:

Choose your own headcanon:
1.) It’s me.
2.) It’s for someone else and I’m a very disappointed girl.
3.) He’s roleplaying as “Roamin” and “Bowman” is theoretical manmeat and I’m the most jealous plane in the world.
4.) All I can conclude from this is that lyrics are open for interpretation and Bowman really seems to like airplanes.
5.) Yes, you can copy/paste this fanmail and put it on your blog if you feel so inclined. In fact, I encourage it.

Much love and pickles,
Tavi

In my opinion, that was an amazingly cool reply.

[Ranter]

Nice message, but not a good thread topic!

[SnakeInABox]

Here you go. All Bowman, All day.

[Bowman]

Hey guys, just reminding you that Plazmataz, Jit, and I are going to be doing a live rehearsal and Q & A tomorrow (Thursday, February 23) at 6pm CST on Tavia's livestream. We're going to be playing a mix of my solo material and some Homestuck tunes and we'll be joined by Astro Kid and Shadolith and it'll be a good preview of what's to come for those attending SXSW.

[Arsenicum]

Hot damn, I forgot that you're doing that free concert thing.
I'm going, fuck my plans.
It will be amazing.

Edit: I didn't realize that it's so close. I can literally walk there.

[Arsenicum]

Man, that was cool. I hope you know that drawing a bucket on my friends' chest is going to be a thing now.

[Wiwaxia]

I haven't listened to Ithaca n over a month. I still have songs from it stuck in my head on a daily basis.
(this is a complement)


Speaking of which, I think I'm gonna go listen to Ithaca again.

[mysteriousOutsider]

I actually happened to listen to Ithaca this morning for the first time in a few weeks. Turns out it's still good.

[Walliard]

I'm so glad to be partially responsible for this.

(oh shit now everyone will know my name oh well)

Evolution of cooking videos

2012: Bowman
2010: Epic Meal Time
2007: Man Cooking ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzsnNLXSIBY )

Anything earlier than this?

[Bowman]

Well there's that video of Paul McCartney making mashed potatoes. Internet classic!

[Walliard]

Well there's that video of Paul McCartney making mashed potatoes. Internet classic!

One of my favorites.

Perhaps subconsciously responsible for my request?

[Bowman]

Alright, welp, the show is in less than 24 hours.

I've got an artist wristband on and a program with my name in it and a band that is READY FOR ACTION.

[mysteriousOutsider]

Well then.

This is exciting.

[Liza]

Really really hyped for this! Hoping that there's going to be some form of recording of it we can see after the fact.

That's what Squid and Kali are there for if I'm not mistaken.

[SeeYouTMorra]

I just made a bunch of picture posts on my tumblr of Bowman, Jit, Shadolith, Plazmataz, Astro Kid, myself, Kalibration, and Squid during SXSW:

Wish I could of gone to see it, but SXSW is a long way from Nova Scotia. I hope at some time in the future I'll be able to go to a convention or meet up and meet you in person, but thats a while off at any rate. But anyways, I'm a huge fan of MT&HK, Ithica and your music in general. The Deeper You Go especially stands out for me.

[mysteriousOutsider]

My commission!

And it's great.

I wasn't quite sure how Bowman would interpret my request which I came up with in a few minutes after neglecting to think about it for several months

I think it worked out well.

[Walliard]

which I came up with in a few minutes after neglecting to think about it for several months

Speaking from experience, those tend to have the best results.

[Liza]

no lie, Walliard, yours is my favourite (presumably until mine gets made)

[Liza]

It occurs to me that this might be a more on-topic place to gush about Bowman's new album than the Homestuck music thread, so I'm resurrecting it.

anyway:

Just through my third listen of Comfortable Bugs, and maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan - Bowman sure does bring the groove. I'm loving the 70's feel and the thoughtful lyrics - just amazing.

[Nocturne]

Bad Dudes is so disgustingly Steely Dan and I love it.

Is it bad that I didn't even bother listening to the album, I just instabought it

e: I'm Letting Go SO FUNKY HELP

ee: three small words ;~;
