End of Summer Jam 2006









Last year I thew a jam party for my birthday, but ended up using it as an excuse to throw a party. The 2006 version of it brought out 85+ folks and 13 musicians...way cool.

btw - as of Aug 26th, I'm 30 years old! I spend just enough time being 20...i'm so ready for the 30's.

Under the Rain at VBC



We played an intense show last night at the VBC! I got to see some friends I haven't seen in a while.

It's such a rush to play at a place where the crowd is packed and everyone's rocking out.

Fix for YouTube sound with Mac's

I've had a problem where YouTube's video wouldn't play sound on my Mac. I found out through the newgroups you have to go into Applications>Utilities>MIDI Setup and confirm that the Output rate is 44,000. It fixed my problem.

This is a shot of Mr. Ben's new setup. That night was probably one our best gigs. We were all fired up and it showed through the music.

We're playing next:

Doogle McGuires Aug 17th @ 7:00PM
Visalia Brewing Co Aug 19th @ 9:00PM

I saved up a bunch of gig money and treated myself to a new upright bass: Engelhardt Swingmaster!
