And Now I Holla

The world is a crazy mess. Least Denver is. The only good thing about this place is my sis and the snow bunnies. That’s it. Flight is cancelled. Again.
My only entertainment besides gorging on the cable television I lack at home (viva la Scubs!) has been my newly consumed PJ [...]

Small Town Rock City

It’s universal I guess. Just finished reading Klosterman’s Fargo Rock City: A Heavy Metal Odyssey in Rural North Dakota. Really, the title says it all.
I caught the tail end of metal growing up. My walls were covered every inch in cutouts and posters from Metal Edge and related magazines. Bought my [...]

Where In The World

Not quite in Denver yet. Huge piles of snow dropping from the sky. My sis says you could accidentally walk onto the hoods of cars in some places. We’re just not used to these white Christmases. My airlines was balls and didn’t update their cancellation information nor have they phones that [...]

You’re Not a Ho Ho Ho

I was just thinking today how I’ve heard nada about the best annual music trade to ever walk the internet. That would be the Holiday Tape Trade at The Skyway.

Fear of the Everyday

The first Nightmare on Elm Street really had the essence of terror down. Use something ordinary, something we can relate to, and then bring in the unknown. Play on it. Distort it.
Dreams.
I’ve seen a few movies lately that remind me how strange the ordinary can be. How truly frightening it might [...]

Tunes for Tuesday

Tonight/Last night/This morning was radio. Trying to jam an infinity of things into a finite amount of time. Hence, forgetfulness. Oi.
It was a grand show to be sure. Replete with a couple of nice calls and the standard dodging of deer to and from the studio. Six to be precise.
Here [...]

Sunny Sunday

The weather has been crazy gorgeous for the past couple of days. Seriously beautiful. Yesterday was a work day, but actually hands on; we went out, cut and planted willow along a project site. Took most of the day, but it was really good, we got a lot [...]
