So Tumblr Radar shot me into the “Music” category under the homepage.  This is pretty cool, as I’ve had some pretty rad people start following me, and even cooler because really, all I do is blog whatever I find interesting!  The music thing is just an addition I thought would be nice, haha.  I ain’t complaining though, and definitely appreciate it.  Hope those of you that...

Today the dudes in Warren (read: Josh and myself, for today’s session) headed back in the studio to record.  Josh laid down his bass tracks, to be prettied up at a later date, and I laid down the scratch vocal tracks.  Things are coming along gorgeously.  Vocals and final bass tracks should hopefully be done this upcoming week… leaving only synthesizer and additional percussion!  We go...

I haven’t been sleeping my best lately.  I blame myself though, especially because last night turned from “Ok, time to take it easy” to: (On the way home from work) “Hey, my friends are at a bar right across from a different train stop, I guess I’ll go…” (A few beers in) “Oh, there’s a party tonight?  Cool, I guess I’ll help out with...

I’m no physics expert by any stretch of the imagination, but something like this (involving string theory and m-theory) has almost always been my idea of how the universe was created.  Craziness.  Also, what’s up with the racist dude at the end?

I always thought that life would get a little less crazy when I graduated from college.  However, I find myself super busy with something almost every day. I think part of it has to do with the fact that I’m the lead guy (or at least, kinda-sorta supposed to be, I just do vocals) in two bands.  Venice Sunlight has a handful of shows coming up, and Warren is knee-deep in recording.  These...

At the Khyber last night with my good friend Emily, the following conversation ensued:
Me: ...And basically that's how things have been with me lately.
Emily: Wow, this is really funny, but I tell my friends that always complain about their issues not to worry about it.
Me: Oh, uh... well I try to do the same -- I mean both not complain and tell others not to worry. Why is that, though?
Emily: Well, I tell them that their lives aren't that bad, because my friend Jay's luck is generally worse than theirs.
Me: ...Right.
