    Java Mammas Java Mammasing. (  a performer at the Java Mammas open mic wandering through from Iowa ) We had a Pot Luck Open Jam tonight.  And as with every one before it, the one thing that held true is that it was different from the ones that came before.  Tonight we gathered at my…

    Why yes, now that you mention it… yes I do. In follow up to the previous thought: it’s tricky being as personal a band as we are.  I think it’s one of the reasons we never go “viral”.  People keep us to themselves – hopefully not as a “guilty pleasure”, but we have conversations at…

    I didn’t know this Rob, but it seems like good advice overall. Happy Father’s Day!  I’m wishing my Dad was still around so I could send him some good wishes.  I was imagining 12.01am and calling him and yelling “HAPPY FATHAH’S DAY MUTHAFUCKAAAAAAA!!!!”  Which really makes me titter, cause – you know – it’s factual. …

    A windfarm in northern Indiana. I was stunned by the sheer expanse of these things, huge white propellers stretching as far as the eye can see.  Unfortunately I’ve heard it’s not as effective as it’s supposed to be and I worry that it was built swiftly and visibly on a highway out of political expediency…

    ilyAIMY at the Dogfish Head in Falls Church, VA. We is rockin like Dokken for dinner. And OH what a dinner it was. My old friends Damian and Jerry came by from my past with Glovia. Le sigh. I miss them. It’s a beautiful morning.  Shafts of sunshine are fiercely visible in between trees, flashing…

    After our show at teh Red House we came back with our host to his house only to discover that his cookin’ fiend of a roommate had made the fluffliest, richest cake known to man.  He’d wanted something sweet and they started serving up portions that looked like the Titanic bearing down on my face. …

    Okay – so whenever I think of roasting marshmallows, I actually generally think of Star Trek VI.  That’s pretty wrong of me, isn’t it.  Anywho – here’s Heather and our friend Brandon roasting marshmellons (as Spock would say) on a fire at our backyard show at the Red House in Columbus, OH. It sure is…

    Rowan Corbett in deep contemplation of The Beat at Acacia Sears’ open mic at Teavolve in Baltimore, MD. We always knew he had cajons big enough to play in Charm City. Oh the horror of being small.  Ask anyone.  It sucks.  I’m not just talking about being 5’8” in a world where the average male…

    This past weekend was brutal, but I Love brutal weekends, so I’m not going to complain.  A frenzy of gigs that left us excitedly exhausted.  A very satisfying couple of days at work…. Cause man, being a rock star is WORK. I got a lot of dubious responses when it was revealed that ilyAIMY had…

    And speaking of Acacia Sears, here’s Acacia after she’d broken a string at Ash’s album release at Teavolve in Baltimore, MD. I Love it when she plays my guitar. And she Loves it when she plays my guitar. After the Wednesday Night Debacle, my Alvarez was on surprisingly good behaviour and Acacia insists that it’s…
