Wanderlust
I got something to say!
It’s better to buuuuurn out!
Than fade away!
-Def Leppard
What’s up all you rat racers, money makers, heart breakers taking a break from staking your claim in the game. Unwinding, reclining, maxin’, relaxin, villainous chillin’ us out with smooth grooves, beta waves and better days.
It’s been a while. Good to see you again. [...]

Here is something you should know about me. Modesty aside, I am made of magic. I know some of you are Rationalists and believe in only what you can physically sense. Your imagination(?), your sense of wonder, stops at about the molecular or atomic level.

Me so Horn-y
One of my nephews started playing saxophone in school. I went up to Baltimore to give him a music lesson yesterday. He’s very hard on himself. Have you ever seen someone make a mistake and then have a mini-tantrum at themselves? You musicians know how music is. When you practice you make constant mistakes. It [...]

New MP3 Roughs
More roughs. I’m trying to come up with some tunes for the 9/11 gig at Potter’s House. I’ve given up on any particular theme. Just going with the flow. Can’t fake the funk.
Obviously, I should have positioned the H2 higher. The acoustic guitar is captured in all its glory. The vocal is a little low, [...]

Thanks, Todd.
Here’s one of the tracks. This is a beautiful song. A vocalist would really add a lot to it. Hint hint. You know who you are.
We opened up a little at the end. It’s 10:21. Worth it.
Right-click to “Save as…”

Past Sunday’s 8/16/2009 Gig
Hey. What’s up? It’s been a while.
Where were you on Sunday night? You missed my gig. But don’t worry because you were in good company, apparently. It was a good one.
Okay, there were some imperfect moments. A few. And they were mostly due to the fact that I had the guys sight reading all night. [...]

New Song: Encore
Under the weather today so I’m at home. Kind of musically manic which can be a great thing.
When I’m working on tunes and collaborate with someone, they often ask, “So what’s this for?”
“What do you mean?”
“Why … what are you recording this for? Is it a project? Are you working on an album?”
I don’t know. [...]

New (Rough) Songs
Zoom H2
This is one of the best purchases I’ve made. It’s a piece of work.
“Encore” was recorded with the H2 on a mic stand to capture the idea before I forgot the chords and rhythms.
I’m very impressed with the quality and balance. If you’re a musician and do a lot of recording on the go [...]

Remember this?

When I pissed off a guy named Bob Merlis? He commented:
It’s amazing to me that you’ve blogged negatively about Peter Bernstein’s “Monk” album since you admit you haven’t heard it. It’s a brilliant album that has garnered some very positive reviews including one from the New York Times. Peter is part of the Blue [...]

My Guitar Voice
I am excited. Why is this text red? One sec.
Okay, now it’s blue. Okay, that’s better. So yeh. I’m excited. Sexually speaking. No, I’m kidding. I’m musically excited.
I had a run of bad tech luck this week. I bought a new external hard drive to back up my old external hard drive and when I [...]
