So, it's been awhile. Deal with it.



The baby is sleeping, so rockstar father can now write something online without fear of doing something he shouldn't when he should be fathering.

We had a most excellent time playing in San Diego with Limbeck, Melee and Apollo Sunshine. I missed Limbeck because I had to rush home to help get my kids into a house they were locked out of (long story...too long).

Apollo Sunshine were amazing. Energy shot from the stage while bassist/cowbell mangler Jesse Gallagher (I think) beat his cowbell with relentless fury. Whoever it was, that guy was freakin' nuts. He hit a cowbell like nobody I know. It was intense, rhythmic, and NOT sucky in the least. Their music sounded to me like Wilco being experimental,but on one of it's earlier albums, with the stage antics/shenanigans of The Flaming Lips minus the large inflatable animals. Jesse made himself a basketball hoop at one point and threw a ball out for people to take shots on him. Nice.

Melee was very good also. Great stage presence. A bunch of fine looking lads who just signed some sort of major record deal with some major record label. They also have a myspace.

The guys in Limbeck were extremely nice and funny. I actually got to talk with their tour manager, Jon Cheese. He was freakin' awesome. Great guy. We just talked about music and stuff. He has his hand in a lot of rock and roll pie. You should see his website. JonCheese.com. Go now.

Oh. I'm playing a show by myself Tuesday and we the band will all be playing together on Friday. These will most likely be our last shows for quite some time. (Well, at least until 2006). We are actually working at getting together with some new bands and playing some shows. We are working on a few new songs. We are even thinking about "the next record". Crazy. Insane. But true.

Go to our myspace for more hot action.

Peace.

No shows for a while?
Are you touring Europe? Filling in for Jackyl on the Winger reunion tour?
How about Fort Worth Texas... I think you need to play at Billy Bob's.
