RPM has thrown down the gauntlet yet again: write and record an album in the month of February and release it without a publisher:

Last year there were 850 submissions. I wonder how many there will be this year?

Unfortunately, given the state of my equipment (mostly in boxes) and my time (prepping for gigs with a bar band, unpacking into a new house, working 2 jobs) I don't know if I'll hop on the challenge this year.
