I met Randy yesterday at Woobie's in Flint MI and he's such a nice guy, I talked with him for a minute about the new songs and the new band he's playing with.. then it dawned on me, this guy tours all over the world and im sitting here in a nearly empty bar on the south side of Flint talking to a musical genius! That place should of been PACKED! Flint needs to get it together, you can't let people like Randy come to our city and play for an audience of 15. That's so wrong and direspectful!!
this guy is my cousin and has showed me the ropes at being a better musician and a better person overall. whether its jamming just the two of us in his basement, or going to arcades every time im with him i feel so good to be with someone with such a positive thinking head on his shoulders. i swear one day randy's music is gonna take off
@DASMEEJ - Tell your cousin I JUST found out about him about 20 minutes ago and I will buy everything he makes and hopefully see him at a show one day. He's got a new fan. - Duke
Moondagger is a BAND effort, rather than just Randy making homemade recordings for Ghostly. The potential as a BAND to become hugely successful is so obvious if you have seen any of the live shows over the last several months, but they need a MAJOR label (and there is interest) to make that happen. Ghostly is holding this BAND back. Ghostly will never bring this BAND to national and international REAL success.A major label needs to buy out Ghostly's contract and take this BAND to real success.
I just found out about Deastro. Moondagger is fucking awesome and now I kind of want to spend a morning flipping pancakes with him and talking about Simone De Beauvoir. I love what he said about the men's movement...
yeah,im not into simone but i could agree with deastro's words.he seems like a real good guy.good people in genral are hard to find.when im done with my ink im hitting up detroit.
Oh My God. That shirt that he is wearing, me and my friends found a ton of those at a dollor store and wore them to school as a joke. Now they are cool.
oh my goodness, thanks! I listened and searched all of Deastro's songs (there are SO many haha) to find the song at the end, but i couldn't find it, so i always came back to this video to listen to it. but, u know, because of that, i listened to most of deastro's music and fell in love with him more. Thanks again, though. Toxic Crusaders. !!!
He's not a doofus at all. He's actually a highly intelligent guy who happens to be really easy going and friendly, and he is a song writing machine. I've heard Moondagger and it is fantastic. Like a greatest hits, and he recently demo'd another albums worth of songs that are equally amazing. They will be the next big thing out of Detroit. Remember you heard it here.
Interesting, from listening to his music that's pretty much how I pictured he would be. A beacon of positivity.

@sheepnote UH, no it isn't at all. Lots of other artists signed to Ghostly. Do a little homework.
