Back in the Studio
After unloading all the gear from last nights show, I’ve set up my studio once again and am working hard on these new songs. I’ve decided to put my amps in the control room for easier tone-finding capabilities.
I’ve also been entertaining the idea of having online acoustic performances via web cam on ustream or stickam. That is still in the works but it seems like a good idea.
Hope everyone is having a great spring break!

Thank you Long Beach!
I just wanted to say a quick thanks to everyone who came out to the show at diPiazzas in Long Beach. It was nice to see some returning friends and make some new ones as well. Thanks to Thao for putting together the benefit show. We definitely had a great time.
Now, its time for me to head back to the studio and finish some songs! Get excited for Season Two.
Thank you!

Ampeg SVT-810E Bass Cab For Sale or Trade
I’m trying to scale down our bass rig from an 810 to a 610. Ideally, I’d like to trade the 810 for an Ampeg 610HLF. Alternately, I would want to sell the bass cab for $600. The cab is in perfect working order. It has some minor tolex scratches and tears. Check out the pictures for cosmetic details. I’d like to deal locally and avoid shipping. Cash only please.

Remember to Never Forget
Don’t you hate it when you think of a brilliant idea, only to forget it the next day or even next hour? I’ve done this a number of times when it comes to songs. An awesome idea would pop into my head while I was playing guitar or piano, and I’d be too lazy to break out a microphone and open up my recording to record the idea. Next thing I know, POOF, the idea is gone. Some of the best ideas I’ve had came to me while I was just messing around. To best capture these moments, I have set up a mic to always be plugged in so I have no excuse not to record the idea. When I am messing around on guitar or piano, the mic will be on to capture anything I’m playing at the time, just in case I need to reference it. I’ve also found that I think of a lot of quality melodies while I’m driving and listening to the instrumental tracks of new songs. I take advantage of this by using my phone to record melodies when a useable one comes around. The quality is not the best, but it can definitely be used to recall ideas.
