I’ve been working on a number of songs lately, but they always seem to be birthed in threes. The 3 that come together don’t usually share a theme, and sometimes not even a melodic structure either. I’m not sure why they do this yet… though I have a hunch that they’re commenting on [...]

improvising in the tunnel
I met up with Carolyn Keyes on Sunday to see what kind of music we could create in one of the tunnels/underpasses by the Music Concourse next to the de Young museum (in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco)…

Last night at the #whuffaoke party/techmob/booktour the whole @whuffaoke team had a big winnebego converted into karaoke machine. Down on 2nd street into the night, we sang, we danced. Here I am singing With A Little Help From My [...]

Add this to one of the places I want to go… a co-worker of mine went rafting down in the river that this valley feeds. Gorgeous!

I really miss the rain. It seems to only rain for a month or two a year here in the late spring. We had some awesome storms come through last March, though that was the last I saw of it. Not that I’m complaining about the awesome weather in the bay area… I just miss [...]
