Yearly Archives: 2007

A long holiday weekend.

It’s so nice to be grown up and enjoy choosing and giving gifts to my friends and family. Over the past weekend I’ve had the opportunity to see catch up with several old and distant friends. There isn’t much that’s better than realizing you can step right back into rhythm with friends that [...]

30.

I can’t wait to be thirty years old.
Just four years and eight months (or so) to go.

3 days until Christmas

I just returned from Fred Meyer (and Target and Safeway)… but at Fred Meyer I saw a few men camped out at the jewelry counter with the ad’s wide open pointing to the shiny object they’d like for their wives, girlfriends, etc. It was a sad scene. Seriously, Fred Meyer Jeweler’s 3-days before [...]

Medicine Mill

Yesterday I had the pleasure of helping out an old friend of mine in the studio. It was lovely. He had his mother in recording some violin right after me. It reminded me of how rad it would be if I started practicing the violin some more so I wasn’t so horrible [...]

My little brother turned 21 years old yesterday. Happy Birthday, Bro! Can’t wait to drag him out to shows… Guess we won’t be going to the Crocodile.

Top albums of 2007 (there are an unlucky 13)

I feel it coming on.

The apartment is filled with year-end-list bliss. I’m slowly putting my fav’s together. I feel that when you’re putting together a list of ten to twelve favorite albums for a year that the order is rather arbitrary. They are the best twelve after all. There are so many records that I’ve [...]

Under the Radar

I just re-subscribed to my favorite music magazine, Under the Radar. They have a half-off subscription special running right now. I highly recommend it. Click on the photo below to go to their website.

“I’m the drunk and you’re the star.”

I’ve spent a solid portion of my day off trying to figure out what order to place my ten to twelve favorite albums of 2007. It’s difficult. Once I figure it out, oh I assure you, I will post the results.
Last night’s show was really great. There were many, many friends and [...]
