I have more guitars than friends

About Me

I finally broke down and made one of these stupid things...but it's only for work.So...stuff....about me...ummm...I play guitar. Alot. I've grown disillusioned with music, but that's another story.

I've gotten really into my research again, which is nice. I'm tracing the evolution of the archetype of the wizard, from Spenserian poetry, through Renaissance loons like Dr. John Dee, to Lewis' Aslan and Tolkien's Gandalf finally culminating in Leguin's Earthsea series and the Harry Potter books. What??? Harry Potter, Earthsea, Narnia, and LotR are legitimate literary works with real value. Care to argue? Message me.
I also train in Shaolin Kung Fu. Check the Xiaolin link in my top friends. If you've got the balls come in for a trial class. Try and get through the workout, then smack a bag full of rocks on the road to learning inner peace through bone-shattering violence. If it wasn't enlightening I wouldn't do it.

Efficiency (for CSI students)

TL;DR: CSI's policies and administration suck, don't go there. If you're already there, leave. (If any of you would like to point out the irony of a blog on efficiency being really long, feel free,...

Professionalism

TL;DR: Music is a profession, and musicians are professionals. Treat it and them as such. You know what's funny? The perception that what I do, music, is not a professi...

AWE Magazine and Metal

TL;DR: AWE excludes most local metal bands. The whole music section of AWE magazine in the Advance is a strange double-edged sword. As an Island musician, I think it's a great idea t...
