Backup Memory #5
I’ve been thinking a lot about music lately. Why is that even while playing in two different bands, I still feel like I’m not getting anything out of my efforts? Musically, I feel kind of like someone who’s lived on energy bars and ...
Rebel Pride & Blind Buddy Moody
We hit the town last night and spent the evening at Dave’s Aqua Lounge (which is quickly becoming one of my favorite dives). It was July 4th! Who could sit in the house on July 4th? Okay, so I wasn’t as enthusiastic about leaving the hous...
In The Vicinity of Les Claypool
Victoria and I headed downtown last night, having pretty much made up our minds that we were going to see Les Claypool at Jannus Landing. I’d never heard of the opening act, Matisyahu, and could have cared less that we got there after he was al...
Me, The Band & The Vampire Crewe
I’m making coffee and am about to cook some breakfast. I can’t explain why, but I feel like this morning is a re-boot or something. I woke up around 5am to use the bathroom, got some water for the cats (who were freaking out not only beca...

Last night we listened to a CD of the band’s February 1st practice. It was disheartening. That practice was the first with our new bass player, Wayne. From what I heard, I’m surprised Wayne wanted to come back. I’m not talking about...
Guitars & (More) Pain
About to go over a few songs before I get ready to head to band practice today. I’m gimped today, and it doesn’t bode well for practice. I have to break this cycle of not going over the songs the first couple of days of the week and then ...
Listening To The Band
Victoria and I listened to some CDs of the band last night. I was glad that Billy gave me some copies of our last two practices. It’s always better to listen to performances after the fact. Sometimes what seemed so horrible at the time isn̵...
