Local Gem . . .

Over the course of his career, Maryland native Doug Alan Wilcox has traveled a road from solo acoustic artist through numerous electric bands of various stripes and back again, performing along the way at some of the country's more notable venues as well as countless small cafes and concert spaces.

The sound is a singer/songwriter stew of acoustic folk, blues, soul, and jazz — sophisticated yet as comfortable as a well-worn shirt. The message is uplifting - speaking straight to the human condition. Intimate, thought-provoking and on occasion, wryly humorous, Wilcox delivers music that will stick in your head — as well as your heart…

Pond- . . .

-ering the pleasure of maturing.  Not the normally-spoken-of, physical kind, but the long, developing, rich kind of maturing that I feel that I am experiencing.  One of the good things about it is that it never ends.  The process, once discovered, practiced and executed is continuous. And the key to it all (and maybe this is the true 'meaning of life') is a desire to learn.

Constantly learn new things.  Always question what you now take for fact.  Read, or if you don't like to read, get new information from any other source with which you are comfortable.

Radio Radio . . .

Jay's interview on Seacrets radio in OC went really well.  The Ditty sounded great.  The staff reacted favorably.  And Oho was invited to play, live on the radio.  All's right with the world.

Not. . .

. . . like me



I know a man who tries too hard
Cause he wants to be liked both near and far
But it's not all that simple a story to tell
And I'm sure it all started way back when
He was only a child
The whole world laying ahead of him
He couldn't get what he craved
An uphill battle awaited
Then something clicked inside

Maybe he's okay
Not quite as bad as he seems
Am I expecting too much
It's not intentionally
Maybe it isn't polite
Looking so critically
Maybe I do it because
He's just not like me

I know a man who talks so much
He's got nothing to say but it's never enough
And it's like second nature he's as social can be
But the topic is always strictly 'me'
From his self-centered view
His egoist perspective
Subject of interest he's found
His world revolving around him
The real one beyond his touch
Along with people there too

Please won't you understand
I don't want every man
Doing just what I would do
Or moving the way that I move
Or the way that I sit or stand

Maybe he's okay
Not quite as bad as he seems
Am I expecting too much
It's not intentionally
Maybe it isn't polite
Looking so critically
Maybe I do it because
He's just not like me
