Christ… need a clever title here… got nothing.
Here I am again. Work on the Weapon Brown commercial has begun in ernest, and  I am going to have some custom made music created for it and everything! One problem: My gritty, bad ass Chuck voice sounds like  Alvin the Chipmunk impersonating Cookie Monster. Is anyone here friends with someone on SEAL Team 6? I bet they would have the voice I am after– cold and hard as American steel, sharp as an eagle’s talon, and as expensive as a diamond-crusted space shuttle .
Speaking of our orbital battle fleet, we are approaching the end of an era. Just one more trip into outer space for the most potent symbol of  national pride ever invented, and then the shuttle program will sink beneath the waves, disappearing into legend. How fitting for my metaphor that the last shuttle to take flight will be the Atlantis. How… very… fitting.
This week I am drinking: tonic water striaght from the bottle. Mmm! The taste of hard liquor any time of the day!
I am taking a vacation at the end of the month to Europe, with a few days of debauchery in Paris. Providing that I don’t get eaten by rude Parisian bedbugs with unshaven pits at the hostel I am staying at, does anyone have any off-the-beaten-path sites to recommend to me?
There’s a fallafel place in the 3rd district called L’As du Fallafel. It’s amazing. Don’t miss it.
This guy has a pretty distinctive voice:

I would suggest Adam Dravean. I think he is pretty good at the whole griddy, badass character thing, and he doesn’t seem to demand big fees. Heck, he loves sci-fi stuff so there is a good chance that he would do it for free.
Here is a demo of him voicing Cassidy the bartender from Fallout 2:

I know of two guys who do voice work, look for “GeneralIvan” and “Oshtoby” Youtube accounts. Hopefully one of them will help you out in finding that voice you want. Also, have fun on your trip and I hope you come back from Europe with all of your organs!
How come you guys know so many voice actors? Are you also friends with that many female porn stars? ‘Cuz those are some friendships I’d like to make as well.

Dude. If I can get my mike working tonight, I will _send_ you an audition. Can I shove an mp3 into your box?
Better would be to send me a link to the file if you had a website or ftp I could download it. If you want to try an e-mail, try to make it only a few megs.
