slouching towards something…

09 Jun

I don’t have any particularly profound things to share, but the space feels empty, and I have a few minutes. Oh look, it’s June. Life is life, really…moving along, slow and steady, generally not particularly noteworthy. Employment is employment: I’ve been at this particular chapter for five months and change now; it’s mostly paying the […]

revenge of the con crud

03 Jun

So, ConCarolinas was a pretty good experience, on balance. We played some pretty damned good shows, if I do say so myself (and I do), our CD sounds really good, and people really seemed to dig the new stuff. I also got to meet one of my favorite modern authors (and made him laugh with […]

ConCarolinas and sundry

27 May

If you’re near Charlotte NC this weekend, I’ll be playing Concarolinas with “Special Musical Guests” The Blibbering Humdingers. We’ve got two big shows Friday and Saturday, plus we’ll probably be goofing off playing music, meeting the public, and selling merch and whatever most the weekend, with our friends Mikey Mason, Valentine Wolfe, and Hawthorn and […]

And we’ll shout it loud(ly)

08 May

Something hit the internets yesterday that’s too exciting not to share, so I’m sharing. Remember the post of April 14 wherein I talked about making some neat things? Those neat things are now available for pre-order on bandcamp. Behold, the latest record from The Blibbering Humdingers, Raised By Nerds: The whole business is quite a […]

been a while

08 May

Yes, it’s been almost a month since I posted anything. I’ve been busy. And overwhelmed. And stressed. And engaging in copious business travel involving the wearing of suits on the subway when it’s 90 degrees outside. Not cool. Life’s getting in the way. Pffft. I totally missed my traditional First of May and Star Wars […]

ravencon weekend

27 Apr

couple of great shows with the Blibbering Humdingers, getting to see some good friends (a couple of whom I met in real life for the first time), and not spending a whole bunch of money…I’m calling it a pretty good con. That said, things felt a bit off this year at Ravencon – it looked […]

ravencon 2015

23 Apr

If you’re not doing anything this weekend, and happen to be within spitting distance of Richmond, come on down to RavenCon, my hometown sci-fi convention! There’s plenty to do, from gaming to shopping to hobnobbing with with authors and artists both famous and up-and-coming, and of course…music. Once again, I’ll be sitting in with The […]

Herb Trimpe

14 Apr

I found out today that artist Herb Trimpe passed away. Perhaps you’ve not heard the name before, but you’ve probably heard of The Incredible Hulk, who Trimpe worked on for most of the 1970s, establishing many of the character’s iconic elements, Wolverine, a character first drawn by Trimpe (who he also co-created with Len Wein […]

back to the real world

14 Apr

Had a great long weekend playing rock star. The band was tight, the headliners were gracious, the venues were excellent, and the audience was appreciative. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Plus we layed down tracks for half-a-dozen songs for the next record. One more item struck from the bucket list. Now I go […]

this weekend…the tour

09 Apr

If you happen to be in or around North Carolina this weekend, why not swing by The Cary Theater on Friday night or The Green Bean Coffeehouse in Greensboro on Sunday for some live music? I’ll be sitting in on bass with The Blibbering Humdingers for both shows, opening for wizard rock pioneers Harry and […]
