Holy cannoli, people!

I got a message from the CD manufacturer today and the Loud Family/Anton CD will be shipping out tomorrow! That means I could start putting copies in the mail to everyone who's pre-ordered it as early as Bloomsday (June 16)! It's really going to be a special moment when the UPS guy pulls up with those boxes... like, omigosh, it's finally here at last!

We have an actual concert date to report too. Scott & Anton will be performing at the Fox & Goose in Sacramento on July 15. Get there early and have some deelish fish & chips before the show.

Billboard Online/All Music Guide loves Don Dixon's CD:
Anyone looking for smart, edgy pop songs sung with a soulful edge will be glad to know that Dixon can still deliver the goods with ease, but there's a sharper, more intellectual, and more introspective tone to The Entire Combustible World than on Romeo at Juilliard or Most of the Girls Like to Dance But Only Some of the Boys Like To... Dixon's singing is skillful and expressive on each track, while his skills as a producer and an instrumentalist are in great shape -- he plays most of the music himself through the magic of overdubbing, and the end product is clever without being pretentious, ambitious without overplaying its artier side... The Entire Combustible World in One Small Room shows he's only grown and improved with the passage of time; this is a striking and powerful work from a man who seemingly has more exciting things to say now than ever.
The CD is listed at Amazon.com so if you've heard it, you can post a review next Tuesday when the album is officially released.
