New Album… New School Pictures!

  As the “Touch” album is currently in mix, and the band is literally spread out all over the planet due to COVID, the art wizards have requested some head shots so they can create some magic.  I’m going to need some full blown warlocks.  See you all soon!

Work, work, work work…

We are TRYING to get this album done in time for the summer…. if only we could stop laughing all the time we MIGHT get some work done. Thanks to everyone for all of your notes and good wishes.  What we have so far… is frankly pretty damned awesome. Perhaps some leaks to follow soon…  […]

Yes… the rumors are true. There is a Touch reunion being worked on.

For those that remember, Touch was Doug’s first major label band which produced such Billboard Top 40 songs as “Call Me When The Spirit Moves You,” “Don’t You Know What Love Is,” “Black Star” “There’s A Light,” and of course others, which appeared on their freshman album “Touch” on Atlantic/Atco records.

I’ve dropped over 20 lbs., my mind is clearer, my attitude is actually more pleasant (if you can believe […]

The Ballad of Mabel & The Man Who Wouldn’t Grow Up

As you may or may not know, or could for that matter care less, I have found a new focus in line with my ongoing mid-life crisis. Actually I don’t see how it can be considered a mid-life crisis as I have always strictly maintained the perspective of a 12 year old in all things, […]

I Don’t Need A List To Remind Me To Breathe… Yet.

It’s come time for me to make lists. It is not necessarily an age thing, though I could easily use that as an excuse in that I find myself occasionally doing things like forgetting where I put the butter knife when I am holding the damned thing right there in my hand. But in that […]

The Elements of Style & Tonic

Doug Howard 3/28/14 (Originally published November, 2005) Recently I was quite surprised to find that I am, in some warped circles apparently now considered a writer. This in spite of the fact that I have two horrid little novels that actually speak to me in the middle of the night, just prior to my falling […]
