Laying down bass tracks:


old school headphone rig:





The board and old pre-amp toys:








You wouldn't even know this place exists, its tucked away in an alley:




The guy who runs this place is Mike Talanca who just happens to be a bass player...so I got the magic treatment in pro tools.

Mike Talanca

1. Girls like to hug me because I am a little chubby
2. Gay men like my eyes
3. My son idolizes me
4. Snakes are hard to see sometimes
5. If you burn the candle at both ends there isn't much left in the middle
6. Admitting your addictions can be humiliating
7. Elvira is a terrible song
8. A man can live on eggs and coffee
9. People like the way I play mandolin because it doesn't sound like "Nashville"
10. I am an asshole...but a lot of people tolerate me...so I must be one lucky asshole

I am in a weird place where my role is "dog walker", "cook", "support talent", "roomie that helps dye hair", "house sitter", "lawn boy", and "fashion consultant". This is my life. This is what I do to pay the rent...and I am fine with that. The stars shine generously on me sometimes, other times I am cursed with addiction...but karma is being more than fair with me these days...I cant complain about anything but a few small wishes
