Will You Try Mastodon Out With Me?
If you listen to any of my podcasts, you probably know that I don’t really like social media. It’s a necessary evil. I think a big part of that loathing is the race to the bottom. The worst content goes straight to the top, which means our culture goes straight to the bottom. Most have […]

NEXT WEEK: Live-streaming Concert Nov 2022
I had a wonderful time at CONjuration this past weekend. It was a laid back weekend of Magic and Harry Potter. I played Peg Kerr’s song “My Father Was A Werewolf” about Teddy Lupin… complete with a full drum kit. It was rocking! Inara joined me on stage on Sunday for a few songs. She […]

Happy Halloween 2022
I’m all ready for the holiday. I wore my Jaskier costume (from The Witcher TV series) at our Halloween Party on Saturday. It was awesome. I played some music for friends too, some of it even on guitar. Hopefully, we can snag some family photos this evening before we take the girls out Trick or […]
Guitars, Improv, and Camping
I went camping this past weekend with Kenzie, her bestie, and her bestie’s dad. We were up near Mentone staying on a place we found through Hipcamp. It was a pretty, fun and relaxing trip. I brought my autoharp and guitar out there. I spent most of the time on the guitar. But I did […]
