Upcoming Events Where I’ll Be Showing my Mug
I have a few events where I’m booked to show my mug at this fall. The First is tomorrow.

I must admit that I’ve spent the last several weeks obsessed with John Lee Hooker. There is something about this song/performance/video that has captured my imagination and won’t let go: Yeah. There is so much in that video that could be analyzed. Picked apart, etc. But the bottom line is that it’s brilliant. A brilliant artists interpretation of a average song captured by someone who really “got it.” Maybe it was the limitations of the technology of the time that makes one think that the ones who captured this...

I hate to sound like a complainer … but I got a google alert about this today. Apparently the Belkin Tunestudio is the greatest product that doesn’t exist yet. Not only that but when they first announced it, this thing was supposed to only cost $180, later revised to $250. Now they are listing it at $399–MORE THAN TWICE what the original price was supposed to be!! WTF?? I would have bought one last spring, now … eh. Who needs it? For $400 I can get a long without it. I’m so disappointed.

I’m not a copyright Nazi–just give me credit and a link please). And Deb Peterson wrote a really nice little paragraph about my winning the Portable Film Festival. Not bad. Kinda makes me feel famous or...
read moreWhere oh where is the Belkin TuneStudio?
I want one of thes things so bad. I’ve been waiting all sumer for it. They promised summer delivery. And they’re still not available. I wonder if the prospect of new iPods pushed back the release date. Whatever I want one NOW!! What would I use it for, you ask? Well I have been using my 80 gig iPod for sometime now as a digital recorder to record the audio from the board for the bands that I shoot for LO-FI SAINT LOUIS. Board mixes aren’t the best recordings because they tend to be very vocal heavy. But thats useful to me...
