Thoughts ///////

I'm just a guy...driven by music, images, people, stories, and adventure...trekkin' my way through the world.


What I'm Up To When Not Working For The Man

1) Planning a 2008 jaunt to The Land Of The Long White Cloud, a/k/a New Zealand; 2) Planning for (finally!) my first Burn ; 3) Working on an Internet TV channel project; 4) Keeping up with friends and co-conspirators; 5) Slangin' bread at the farmer's market; 6) Plotting world domination.


Listen: Rodrigo y Gabriela

I saw this crazy-good pair at Coachella this year. Out. Of. Hand! They filled an entire tent with a crazed, raucous crowd of dancing hipsters, goths, and other music maniacs. Flamenco-inspired guitarristas with roots in Latin metal. Who knew? Peep their Myspace for a listen. I'd suggest starting with their fantastic cover of "Stairway To Heaven" then progress to "Diablo Rojo." If they come to your 'hood...GO!!


Peep: Ghostridin' The Volvo

Some fools will do anything to keep those A's in Oakland. Classic.


Peep: Romantic Death

"Romantic Death" by a group called The Sun from Columbus, OH. Don't know what they put in those Buckeyes...but the boys have got themselves one nice, slightly raunchy lil' video. I'll say this...it's original!


Peep: Unforgettable Images

Lynne's work is simply fantastic - pure eye candy - and will leave you wanting more. Memo to Nat'l Geo: What are you guys waiting for? Hire this girl, ASAP!


Note: World Cup 2010

South Africa baby!

THOUGHTS: Tool's "10,000 Days"
