Month: January 2005

Last week I went to the first ever Bamboo Bernies open mic hosted by Justin Taylor. Some people probably thought I was mad last week because I only played three songs and got the heck out of there, but I wasn’t. I just didn’t want to stay out that late and I ended up going…

Today I went through my parents’ basement to see if there was anything else I could sell on eBay and I came across my freshman high school yearbook (1993 – 1994). Check out how slick I was back then: That’s me and Sister Renata, my 9th grade math teacher. Read on for an article I…

The first Odd Man In game of the New Year is now underway. OMI 2005 started with an amazing 48 players! Note: The email all players received contained a message from the last game. Obviously, the moves for this game will not be shuffled around Christmas. The first moves are due Tuesday night! I made…

I sold a broken camera on eBay for $46. I clearly marked it as broken, so it’s not like I tried to pull a fast one on somebody.

This is your last chance to join the next game of Odd Man In titled, OMI 2005. The game starts tomorrow!

My friend Vinnie’s band Vicious Circle was named 94 WYSP’s rock stars of the month. More information on their label, Neo Blast:VICIOUS CIRCLE has just been nominated as the January 2005 “Rock Star Of The Month” on 94.1 WYSP “Loud And Local” with Tommy Conwell.

It’s over! My good friend Mike Blake won the Holiday Shootout as Mr White. In the last game, he was the notorious Mr Pink who screwed up the end game for a few players. Some highlights of this game were a surprise opening round where me and 7 other players opened fire on Mr Indigo…

Justin Taylor lost his open mic at the Crab, but found another one to run over at the infamous Bamboo Bernies in Lawnside. It starts tonight at 9:30PM and it’s every Wednesday night.

After a tense standoff in Round Six, Round Seven ended with a bang. Three of the remaining six players were knocked off throwing the game into a final 3 showdown between Mr Crimson, Mr Silver, and Mr White. The rules change slightly in the final three. Odd numbered shots will kill you instead of even…

Anyone who reads this site and is not playing the current game of Odd Man In is nuts. Holiday Shootout is about to enter its 8th round and it’s full of alliances, anti-alliances, strategy, anti-strategy, and most of all, fun! No anti-fun! The only players left in Holiday Shootout are Mr Silver, Mr Salmon, Mr…

I just got back from seeing Sarah’s show at the Tree House. She sounded familiar and great. The place was packed with her friends and fans, anxious to hear her for the first time since she moved to North Carolina. They all seemed a little older than I remember them being, but that’s because they…

We’re now halfway through this decade and we still don’t know what to call it. It was a big year for me. I got married, visited San Francisco, bought a great house, went crazy in debt, quit the open mic, saw the Pixies twice, and started Odd Man In. It’s been a great year for…

If you haven’t heard the bad news, Justin Taylo informed us last week that the Carribean Crab open mic is closing up for good. I tried to condense his email, but it’s too entertaining to edit.It truly is a sad day today. After eight months of sweat and loyalty, the Crab has decided to discontinue…
