Ah May, You Hurt So Good

Posted on May 12, 2010

I know, we’re halfway through May and I have yet to write a real post. Truth be told there’s been a lot going on but I’ve been too lazy to share. Between Sunfest, Cinco de Mayo and trips out of town it just seems I’m writing about the same stuff as last year.

Sunfest was a blast. I only did two days this year out of five. Saturday and Sunday and to be honest, the Sunday was a long one. The two days afterwards dealing with the hangover was a key factor in my lack of writing. Lots of live bands, booze and dining but it was a great time.

Cinco de Mayo I busted my ass to get as much work done as possible and only made my way down the street around 4pm. Rocco’s was once again the perfect spot to celebrate.

The rest was all a good time as well. Between taking time off and working my ass to make up for it there’s been little time or energy to record it all. I’ve been trying to get better at it but it seems like I’ve been pretty non-stop with my own clients and my large client in Washington so when the day is done I’m really in no mood to write. Hell, I’ve even slacked off of the FaceBook thing but honestly I think that was getting a bit out of hand.

So many family members are now friends, especially those I haven’t even spoken to years. Ah well, such is life online.

An incredible Rube Goldberg that took four months to build. I just keep watching it over and over.

Winter

Posted on February 4, 2009

This one’s called Winter by Joshua Radin. I learned this one for Trish’s Birthday and played it for her. I did record it earlier but she asked that I burn it to a disk just for her so I did. I really like the song so yeah, I re-recorded it. I did mess up a couple times but whatever, you get the point. Think I need some damn voice lessons not that it would do any good. Enjoy (if you can).




Kings of Leon: Only by the Night

Posted on January 20, 2009

kingsofleonI’ve been jamming out to Kings of Leon for a couple weeks now and I’m really digging their sound. Especially the new album, “Only by the Night”. One of my favorite tracks is Revelry; it kind of has a few different meanings for me but if you know me at all you’ll get it.

Check them out here at KingsofLeon.com. Matt, I know you’ll probably give them a look, you always do. It’s not German Techno but I’m sure you may find it interesting at the least.
