UFO in TX?

On October 31st 2009

These two objects were spotted over Granbury, TX

Seconds later, they disappeared.

Dancing Baby

I was changing my son's diaper today while the camera was in arms reach and I couldn't resist posting a short clip. I hope you laugh as much as I did.

New Soup

I really enjoyed my overnight in Chicago playing at New Soup recently. I was reminded how refreshing it is to work and re-work a raw song and turn it into something with movement and texture. I had a blast brainstorming with Emily and really enjoyed John Abbey's critical ears. The man knows how to mic a drum set. On another note... even though we were temporarily locked out of an apartment and temporarily under the impression that Emily's purse had been stolen, the overnight was a total success and most importantly I got to eat good Mexican food!

Recording Blues

I recently did some recording and learned a valuable lesson... If you want something done right you better do it yourself! After 4 hours of tracking drums, bass, piano, and a string quartet, I took the time to investigate the audio engineer's gear only to find out he mixed everything down (live) to a stereo mix. No multi-tracking... WHAT!? Exsqueeze me? Post production much? Looks like we'll chalk this one up as a do-over.
