Today I will pick-up from the printers the new sheet music for Androgyne Prophecy. Yay! It’s only been eleven years since the first edition, but who’s counting?

I will make more videos of it and a really good recording soon. In the meantime you can see me play the whole piece at http://youtu.be/nzDjcSDs7j8

To get your copy of the sheet music click on the green Shopify buttons below, or see HMP Sheet Music to buy direct with a cheque or direct credit. There is also an easy version.

Or drop-in to hear me play at Soul Tree Organic Cafe and get the special price of $15 and save on the p&h too!

I play there on the 2nd & 4th Sundays of each month, so 23 August, 13 & 27 September 2015, 12 noon to closing time at 3pm.

Of course, they also have the most amazing food, very special indeed. See you soon for coffee, cake and music?



World Premiere of Documentary Sold-out

Today Tempest Productions had a SELL OUT audience for the 87 minute independent documentary Parkerville Amphitheatre: Sets, Bugs and Rock n Roll.

Having seen two in-progress versions and now the finished product I found it really grew on me. And not just because I feature in it!

I’m too close to the story to really comment on it. Suffice to say: people are raving about it.

There are two more screenings in the Revelation Perth International Film Festival:

4pm Saturday 11 July 2015 (Northbridge), and 12 noon Sunday 12 July 2015 (Fremantle). Get your tickets NOW because they will also sell out. See www.parkerville-amphitheatre.com

Feel free to make a comment.

Facebook now has 50 genders

Don’t know how I missed this last year.

http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2014/02/13/male-female-or-custom-facebook-announces-major-expansion-terms-to-identify/

Below is a paste from that page. Note that originally these terms were only available in the USA but they now seem to be available here. Hooray!

Any attempt to define these terms (and even ‘male’ or ‘female’) is bound to be problematic. But if you are wondering what a cisgender person is, you probably ARE one. Most people on the planet are probably cisgender. That term could simply refer to a male-born or female-born person with a gender identification as a ‘traditional’ man or woman respectively, or someone who has no ‘gender issues.’ You get the idea.

Facebook’s new gender options

Here is a list of new gender options Facebook is making available:

But the path of continuous progress is often a zig-zag. This wonderful change has not saved the FB account of the very person (a Facebook employee) who brought it in. https://medium.com/@zip/my-name-is-only-real-enough-to-work-at-facebook-not-to-use-on-the-site-c37daf3f4b03
Note that transexual is more usually spelt with a double ‘s’ thus: transsexual.
