fake science and eletronic music

I went to eat lunch with some of my old co-workers at Macr^H^H^H^HAdobe on Friday. It was nice seeing the old crowd. The (relatively) new building is pretty fancy, complete with a cafeteria area that makes good food - salads, burgers, fish and other tasty vittles.
My friend James (a.k.a. Halon) told me that […]

video of Elliot live

The show went really well - 25 minutes of white-hot rock, a club full of friends and fans (well, friends mostly) and good feeling all around.
Jenelle’s cousin’s husband (cousin-in-law?) was nice enough to capture the first half of the set on DV and I spun it into a little concert video. Check it out, […]

the beat is on

Enough sitting at home every night with my headphones on making sounds that only I will ever hear.
I’m the first band playing at the Bottom of the Hill on 15 December in SF so show up early. I think I go on around 8:30pm and will only play for 20 or 25 minutes, […]

25 - dating oneself

I had dinner with a few folks at a friend’s house and after dinner the five of us sat around talking. Playing in the background was a tape that my friend made of a MTV’s 120 Minutes, circa 1992.
Although that was made some 13 years ago, I still consider much of the music featured […]

indie bands playing corporate gigs, macr annual party

Last night I went to Macromedia’s annual corporate party at The Fillmore San Francisco with Sarah Allen. Sarah and I both worked at Macromedia before we moved over to Laszlo Systems. I think this is th elast real hurrah before the Macromedia/Adobe merger goes through.
The bar was open, the music and […]

new song - serpentine

Music is back - serpentine
Chord changes are not back. Yet.
This song has both lyrics and chord changes in it, but they’re just not recorded yet. And it’s mixed with *way* too much bass.
Here’s the first go at the lyrics -
if you have the disposition
if you have the dime
look beneath the murky water
stay away […]

caveteen collective missive

Dear Madames, Sirs -
I would like to propose the first meeting of the Caveteen Collective at an yet-to-be-decided date during the month of February. As I am sure you are curious as to the nature of the Collective, I take it upon myself to address your curiousities with enumerations of her qualities.

The Caveteen Collective […]

new song - rice

the song: rice
There was a punk band (back in the 80’s or early 90’s, I think) called “rice” that only released one album. Every song was about 25-30 seconds long. If I remember correctly, all of the words were “rice” over and over again.
This song is not so very punk rock. […]

new song - surfin’ with the bros

The song: surfin’ with the bros

This is a pretty little surf ditty inspired by my days (over ten years ago!) in high-school –
I grew up in a suburb of Los Angeles. Everybody drove to school, except for a few people who took either city (RTD) or school buses. Every time it […]
