NAMM 2007 Day 1

I just returned from the open­ing “state of the indus­try” break­fast and speech by NAMM pres­i­dent Joe Lam­ond. I went to this event last year, and it was really inter­est­ing. There’s a whole bunch of stuff that isn’t really rel­e­vant to me, but I still found fas­ci­nat­ing. Here’s two that were impor­tant: 1) To start, […]

why am I writing at 7:48 in the morning?

Because I’m up to go to the open­ing day of Sum­mer NAMM 2007! This is awe­some. I feel like it’s Christ­mas morn­ing. But any­way, I’m about to head off to the “State of the indus­try” break­fast, so we’ll see how the indus­try is. This should be fun. I’ll be try­ing to post as I go […]

Happy 4th!

From Cid the Cica­dia, who spent most of his 4th of July sit­ting on my bal­cony before pass­ing away around 8 o’clock, most likely in a patri­otic fervor.

OH MY GOD!

Pete Townsend has a blog. That’s the coolest thing ever. I need to read the whole thing asap. Check it out here:

Coming Home

No, we didn’t win. I’m pretty dis­cour­aged about it, hon­estly. I think we all thought we had a really good chance at this. Some­how we didn’t even fin­ish in the top 3, which is even more depress­ing. We also had a pretty fan­tas­tic day in Mem­phis, so to have the whole thing end like that […]
