"Does my bum" - kicks ass!

Does my bum look big in this? TM kicks ass ...

My new song which I recorded as a dance number kicks ass as an acoustic number too! It totally gets the audience involved, laughing smiling and feeling part of something -

Live Performances:


I'm getting back into the swing of public performance and communicating on stage or in front of a crowd.

Pre Halloween Gigs

CEOL BAR Smith St, Brooklyn

My friend Niall has been running an open mic plus invited feature guest at Ceol in Brooklyn.

I returned there and had a magnificent Burger and fries to keep my hunger at bay.

I performed the following songs:

  1. Price of the Medicine
  2. Legends
  3. Does my bum look big in this? TM
#3 Is a magnificent crowd pleaser and incidentally got picked up at SPONY pitch a thon the following evening - by perseverance.

I played on Tuesday at the opening of a new art space in Bushwick with my pal Roy and a cool Denmark Dobro player... rock and folk -

  1. The Unemployment Blues
  2. Bailout
  3. Does my bum look big in this? TM

Dear John, It's really good Bro, a new direction perhaps? Then again you can write in any style.Love all the electronica stuff, very dancy, I was moving to the beat in my seat as I listened. A witty song which anybody can relate to. I'd love to hear your live acoustic version which your blog says gets the audience going.Well done! Love Brendan

Is the use of the word ASS in lyrics explicit?

 This must be just a gratuitous excuse to write some filthy words in LAUGHJOHNLAUGHS! Blog- I was researching this because the words of my first ever single - "Does my bum look big in this? " contains the word ' ass ' in a line in the third verse. "Ohh please tell me baby do you like my ASS?" which is a fair relationship question imo ...but my G/f says in church circles it is likely regarded as lewd or crude .. hmm I  hadn't realized. So here is some interesting material derived from a quick search on the topic - using the search terms ' is the word ass in lyrics considered explicit ' I got some information about the 7 dirty words or seven naughty or filthy words - whatever they may be titled. However if I publish the 7 naughty words in full then I need to mark my blog as explicit which is a shame - so may need to write a tamer version without the highly charged naughty/dirty words. Anyway basically the good news is as follows:  I don

ASCAP 1 day conference Q&A Feedback

ASCAP NY SESSIONS Q&A Name: John Munnelly Band: Laughjohnlaugh Latest album: Unreleased ( Music available on myspace and on my EPK) Website: http://www.myspace. com/laughjohnlaugh EPK: http://www.sonicbids.com/ epk/epk.aspx?epk_id=103702 BLOG: http://laughjohnlaugh. com/ 1. Why did you decide to attend ASCAP NY Sessions? First of all I liked the name - I make music - that's what I do and aspire to better at doing with other musicians similar to me. I wanted to join ASCAP - They seem to me to be more Artist centered ( than perhaps BMI/SESAC etc) so I wanted to meet with some ASCAP staff face to face and get to know them as persons before I finally signed up. I also wanted to try the 1 day conference locally in order to see if the longer 3-day conference out on other coast is a worthwhile investment of my time and resources. 2. What was the most important thing you took away from the one-day conference? Its a very human business after all - I think it gets a bad rap from tim

Fuck you google (YouTube Owner) you fuck.

January 2018 Fuck You 'YouTube' I hate corporate speak. YouTube Letter says in effect 'hey we are keeping even more money for ourselves!' and 'we are doing this for our advertisers! But they dont say that - it's opposite speak. See some excerpts below. Google YouTube are doing this for our advertisers. Last Tuesday they YouTube tell small creators and musicians like me fuck you and your channel. Not that I even ever got any money from them in the first place, but now they move the creator carrot even further away from the donkeys mouth and the stick of iniquity beats on. Follow the money - they are doing it for the adverts. They had the worst rate of royalty on music anyway and it makes no financial difference really cause they keep the money but likely will lose a variety of creative tools like custom thumbnails that brought some ingenuity and creative flair to their standard random thumbs. It means if you are in a stream your thumbnail imag
