That's pretty sweet. Take it from a guy who has the Washington Post article I was in framed and on my wall - it's stuff like that can keep you going on shitty days. Happy Chanukkah!

Congrats Todd.

I'm not really listening to it as much lately, but "I'm Pathetic" could probably nudge its way into a top 40 songs of 2010 list for me.

And now he named "Here" into his top 10 songs of the year.
Again: Yay, me!

Got another "Best of" mention on another blog:
http://sethsaith.blogspot.com

And yeah, I do get a bit excited when I hear that folks are listening to and liking my music. That's what it's all about for me.
So...

Here's a better link for Seth's blog if you want to jump to the albums post. Great to see him doing theatre as well, though.

Very cool, Todd.

In May, I did a short-term copywriting assignment on-site at an unnamed company. On my first day there, I heard an employee telling another of the temps about a new album he had released. Upon poking my nose in, I learned from Todd Leiter-Weintraub that Hop On Pop was his band (though mostly just him) and Chicken on a Bicycle was his second album. So I bought a copy he brought for me ...
