Regulations put on an awesome show in Denver last night. It fucking destroyed, and was a nice blast back to old American Left Coast Hardcore, a la Black Fucking Flag (pre-Rollins). Good crowd, good show, good friends. What more could one ask for?

Everything seems to be rising to a point of convergence.

Radio Free Spirit has been going well, I now need to get more listeners. Advertise, advertise is my motto. My voice will ring from posters placed in every public space, and the cry will be FREEDOM!

*ahem*

I am preparing to get Nourish the Soul up and running now, I will be doing the soup...

This has been a long week

Over the weekend, my band RV, opened up for a show at our drummer's house. It was a good set for the most part, we had heathen torchbearers and some of our friends went nuts throwing firecrackers. Only difficulty for us was that our wires were ghetto rigged and got knocked out, so we lost half the crowd while...

I'm back for all those of you who don't read this. Some cheers?

In other news, I will be updating sporadically as I am writing a paper on Borgesian fiction, specifically the interconnections between the all the stories contained within the collection The Garden of Forking Paths. Its fun, insightful, forces me to up my level of learning and understanding, and is tedious as...

Down for Renovation

Velvet Cacoon is really messing with my head at the moment... I'm writing, but due to the musical influence, it's all bleak, wintery, nihilist, egoist, violent and depressing.

That was a lot of adjectives...

Pictures coming soon.

Thanks for the birthday wishes from everyone

It was an interesting night to say the least

I'm super-excited to see Split Lip Rayfield in a few days, a great band that i can best describe as alternative bluegrass folk punk...

Two weeks on the Vegetarian train and I'm loving it. Oh wait... did I just use a McDonald's advertisement? Sell out! It happens I guess...

I am perhaps going on a 5-day tour (though as a lackey) w/ Comrades in Arms. Spots we are hitting: Lawrence, KS/Tulsa, OK/somewhere in NE/somewhere in CO

other than that, I forgot how good the Joykiller, Immortal Lee County Killers...

Somehow I now manage Vole-le...
how that happened I don't know, though I got offered 25% of the bands take as payment. So I shook hands and took off running with pockets filled with gold. Only to find later that the gold was really nothing more than pop-rocks covered with gold spray paint. One day, people will stop robbing me.
