Did some more recording today
I recorded 99% and All My Dreams are in Cartoon today and got halfway decent mixes of them finished.? I think they need a little more work, but so far they’re pretty good.? I’ll probably post a rough mix tomorrow if I can get all the volume levels set properly to match with the other…

Vineland Music Festival delayed until 2009
Well, with no lineup announced I’m not that surprised that it has been delayed. Vineland, originally scheduled for August 8-10 in Vineland, N.J., has been moved to early summer 2009. Producers C3 Presents and Festival Republic made the change in response to the heavy festival traffic in the Northeast and major bands’ tours of the…

mars-red Closing!
I was extremely disappointed to see this in my inbox today. mars-red is a great store and Scott put a lot of effort into it. The two gigs I played there were a lot of fun and it’s a shame to see they couldn’t make it work. Also, I have a $25 gift card I…

Open Mic @ The Auction House
It took me a few months, but I finally made it out to the new open mic that is literally about 2 blocks from my house.? Audubon’s Auction House on Merchant Street now has a weekly open mic night on Wednesdays hosted by Russ.? There were about 50 people there! I ended up going on…

Vineland Music Festival
Has anyone heard about this?? They seem to be keeping the list of bands a secret, but if it’s any good I might go.? Interestingly enough I’ve had to go to Vineland twice for work this week to the Progresso plant down there.

Happy New Year
The decade really is almost over now! I turn 30 this year, so that should be fun. I didn’t buy a ton of new CDs this year, but my favorite album of 2007 was definitely Boxer by The National.

Open Mic @ Studio Luloo
Last night I stopped by Studio LuLoo’s open mic again and had a nice time. Mark Rice was the featured artist and he had a nice mellow sound. So mellow a guy near me passed out on the couch. Hah. A guy named Pat rocked a version of Mayonnaise by Smashing Pumpkins and I think…

Open Mic @ Studio LuLoo
John Shaughnessy suggested I check out the open mic at Studio Luloo so last Tuesday I did. Singer/songwriter/fire escaper Sara O’Brien owns the studio and she’s making a great effort in turning it into a successful business. She holds music events at night and other times has art classes and workshops for kids. I can…

Interpol @ The Tower Theater
A friend offered Interpol tickets to Jeanne and I a few days ago. I’ve never seen them live and I’ve heard good things, so we decided to go. The Liars opened up and everyone around us hated them. I thought each of their songs tried to emulate a different band. I had fun guessing whether…

Treehouse Open Mic
Last night I stopped by the everlasting Treehouse Open Mic night hosted by Rich. It’s great to see it continue and as far as I know they’ve been having one for at least 6 years. A lot of new performers (except Bob Michel) were there and most were entertaining. I don’t remember most of their…

RIP Airport Express
Just a few weeks ago my beloved Airport Express just up and died. The light won’t turn on at all when I plug it in. I tried to take it to the apple store to see if I could get it fixed, but I didn’t know I needed an appointment. I’ll still try and get…

Thanks for Coming Out
Thanks to everyone who came out last night. I hope everyone had as good a time as I did. Once again they booked four bands downstairs cutting me off a little early, so for the first time in a while I didn’t play “The Genius of it All” and a few other originals. Next time…
