My Interests

My website is now up and running. I've got a new guitar instructional DVD out and this is a place you can order it from, as well as downloading the companion workbook and other teaching materials. www.Bengowell.com

Music:

Lately I've been listening to: John Mayer "Continuum", Ray LaMontagne, Daniel Lanois, Johnny Laing, Mindy Smith, David Mead, Halloween Alaska, Sara Groves, Romantica, and a bunch of other stuff. I also can't get away from Tears for Fears - they're on a pretty heavy rotation

Movies:

If you haven't seen the movie "Once" yet, you've got to go check it out. It's one of my favorites from this year for sure. I was on the road with Sara Groves recently and we all watched "Gymkata" - I would highly recommend this one as well for a completely different set of reasons. "The Burbs", "Nothing but Trouble", "Better off Dead", "Flight of the Navigator", and "D.A.R.Y.L." will always have a special place in my heart

Television:

American Gladiators 80's goodness is back in action!

Books:

I've been having fun lately going back and buying old high school science books again. I'm addicted to Time magazine and to the Rand McNally Road Atlas. Also currently reading a Teddy Roosevelt biography "Theodore Rex" and Mark Labberton's "The Dangerous Act of Worship"
