Blog on hiatus, new web design site open
::: Aug.19, 2010
I’m off starting to build a new blog site for myself, so I will not be blogging on this site under my own name for the time being. If you came here looking for my web design service, please check out my web design site.
I’m off making web sites for myself
::: May.28, 2010
Just a quick update to say that I’ve been vacant here because I’m away building a few web sites for myself — including a redesign for this site! So I won’t be blogging for a few more weeks. I’ll be back after that, though!
Gear Review: Menatone Foxy Brown with Sag Knob
::: Apr.20, 2010
Menatone’s been on my radar for quite some time, since my neighborhood guitar store, Willie’s American Guitars, stock the whole line. At once time I had the amazing Kar Krash, whose fast touch and feel still form quite an impression in my mind. Let’s see how Foxy Brown is. What It Is It’s a low- [...]
Building Habits vs. Artistic Constipation
::: Apr.12, 2010
I don’t know why that is, but it’s hard to find artistic people who are very disciplined about building creative routines. I am guilty as charged as well. I have no idea if I’m typical or not, but I am very feeling-oriented and my productivity goes way up and way down…. if I’m feeling inspired, I [...]
In Flames: “Take This Life” from Come Clarity
::: Apr.01, 2010
Trust. It’s so hard to trust, after you’ve been hurt. It’s so much easier to put up walls and hide in the safety of your own darkness…. Yet, if we believe that we have a reason, a mission that we need to carry out in this life, then the cozy space inside your own confinement [...]
Dada: “Ask the Dust” from American Highway Flower
::: Mar.31, 2010
Frustration: seeing things fail to turn out the way you thought they should. Everyday is a day in which we face the gap between what should be and what is. And that gap never really seems to close. If anything, the older I get, the wider that gap seems to be growing. Well, if that’s [...]
Why Didn’t Dada Hit It Big?
::: Mar.30, 2010
When I think of criminally overlooked rock acts, Dada and King’s X come to my mind. I’ll get to King’s X in another post, but today I’d like to consider what happened to Dada, or rather, what Dada can do if they were to mount another serious attempt at establishing itself today. Dada originally came [...]
My Plan for My Site
::: Mar.30, 2010
OK, I do realize that my site has become a pretty disjointed affair. I mean, my whole online presence is a bunch of disjointed affairs. Web sites here, blog here, all started, sustained for a few months, and then discarded when I move on to the next phase. Well, this is the site that has [...]
King’s X: “Dogman” from Dogman
::: Mar.22, 2010
I’ve been swimming regularly the last few weeks. I love swimming. I’ve gotten into a routine of swimming 1k each session. 25 laps. And I noticed that somewhere in the middle of those laps, there are usually moments when I really feel bad. It’s that time where your muscles no longer have the fresh strength, [...]
Toad the Wet Sprocket: “Fly from Heaven” from Dulcinea
::: Mar.21, 2010
I used to wear what I believe more on my sleeves. I thought that it was safe and secure. Then I went out into the “real” world, and got squashed. Many people carelessly swinging their hearts on their sleeves, tossing them about carelessly, not realizing how cheap and shallow they make them look. Paul is [...]
