I will only be happy when our president realizes he is not the emporer.

About Me

Currently I still suck at returning messages.Back out doing monitors for The Bravery . Check their site for dates.One of the bands opening for us right now is Fiction Plane . I feel quite honored to be mixing FOH for them. They've been a lot of fun.Playing drums occasionally with Yoni Gordon. (Check his website and myspace site .) Recently we put out an EP that was 3 years in the making (I know, that's kind of sad), and we also have a newer full-length recording that came out in June, and it's fucking amazing. Trust me.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

1.Paul Krugman. Although, I guess I already did meet him briefly. I suppose it's more that I'd like him to be my uncle. But I'd like to state that I respectfully disagree with his seeming choice of presidential hopeful.2.Carl Kassell... and Daniel Schorr... I wish they were my uncles too.3.Someone who I have not yet met. Or someone who I've met, but is worthy of meeting again. Or maybe someone who I've met before but just forgot that I met them and I really should have remembered them. But if I shouldn't have remembered them then I hope I don't run into them again. Unless they've changed. Or unless I've changed in a way that would be conducive to making the acquaintance a more positive experience.

Music:

Love the Wilco. Yes, yes I do.

Movies:

I just saw "Sarah Marshall" and I was pleasantly surprised that it did not suck.Obviously I stand behind "No Country For Old Men" and "There Will Be Blood", but I also have to admit that "Ratatouille" was a damn fine movie to sit through on a plane.Also, "Wristcutters: A Love Story" was great. See it.

Television:

For cryin' out loud, how can people watch this crap?

Books:

Just Finished: "The Audacity of Hope"by Barack Obama Currently Reading: "History Lessons: How Textbooks from Around the World Portray US History"

My Blog

Why you should be skeptical of Bill Richardson.

I have to say that after the last Democratic debate I kind of liked what Bill Richardson had to say on some issues, and it seems like more and more the media has good things to say about him. But I co...

A good drink and a bite to eat

I'm not so sure why I feel compelled to write a blog about this, but I guess I'm just inspired, so I'll go with it.One cool thing about being on the road so much is that you get to eat at a lot of coo...
