SXSW 2013 Music
18, Mar 2013Oh yeah, it’s a music festival too! To be honest, I had such a great time attending the conference part of SXSW that the live shows were lower on my list this year. Going to the panels was an 8 – 6 job, and commuting from San Marcos added some extra time this year. It [...]

Texas Red River Songwriters’ Festival
29, Jan 2013Greetings from my couch (yep, it’s still here and still comfortable). We had a whirlwind trip to Red River, NM for the 2nd Annual Texas Red River Songwriters’ Festival. This was momentous because “2nd annual” means the first one worked well enough to do it again. Last year we had a small but mighty crowd [...]
Happy New Year!
1, Jan 2013Happy January 2013! I started out the year right with some arts and crafts. Since I just moved and have had roommates for so long, I found that I had no plates or bowls to my name. Susan had an old set and had also read on Pinterest that if you Sharpie on them and [...]

Moving in a Southernly Direction
18, Dec 2012It’s been a busy month. Things being as they are here in the bustling metropolis of Austin, Texas (Tech Capital of the State), rents get raised every chance an apartment company gets. They gave us the notice that our increase was almost 20%, and my roomie Katie and I decided it was time to split [...]
Pledge for Charlie Faye’s new album!
3, Dec 2012My friend Charlie Faye asked me to help her make her new album pledge campaign video. Specifically she asked for my booking agent voice (example here). Help a friend get a great record made AND make silly voices? How could I say no to that? Here is the result: Here is Charlie’s PledgeMusic site where [...]
I Have Nice Friends

They are the best! Nancy Jane has a cool tradition for birthdays and other occasions – wish balloons! Everyone writes their wish [...]

Tejas Time
23, Sep 2012The blog is slow because for the first week home I only attended to the things that directly fed or clothed or bathed me, like…the shower, and the grocery store, and my usual office worky stuff. Then last week I spent a lot of time defining some goals because good grief I turn one of [...]
Bozeman, Montana + Gibson Guitar
19, Aug 2012We had a great time in Bozeman, Montana on Thursday. We stopped by the Gibson Guitar factory to see if we might look around, and while they only do tours on Wednesdays, a nice employee named Jeremy took us through the factory anyway. We saw how a guitar gets made starting from a flat piece [...]
Centennial, Wyoming
16, Aug 2012Centennial is one of my favorite places to be. It’s about half an hour west of Laramie close to the Snowy Range Mountains. Susan’s cousins, Tony and Kelli and Baby Chance live here! Kelli and Jenn also own the Friendly Store…which encompasses a gas station, convenience store, cafe, bar, and motel all in one. Kelli [...]
