If Only She Knew

I finally mixed "If Only She Knew," which is a song I wrote a couple of years ago. I recorded Wade playing the drums on it during the "Running Out Of Time" session in August 2006. I figured I'd record the rest of the tracks shortly thereafter. Unfortunately, a few days later most of my guitar equipment was stolen and I wasn't able to finish it like I'd hoped.

Over the last several months I've been buying new guitar equipment and a couple of weeks ago I decided to record the bass, guitar, rhodes piano, and vocals over Wade's old drum tracks. If you go here, you'll hear the result. Thanks to Wade and Bobby for the assist with pro-tools. Also, thanks to Myke and Darren, who are awesome guitar players and, along with Bobby and Wade, inspirational musicians.

I'm still very new at using pro-tools, so it's not perfect. But, drop me a line and tell me how you like it.

Critical Asses

Last time Bob and I were in The People's Republic of Soviet Monica, we watched a large bike ride that included some weirdos, anti-war protestors, and the like. I didn't think much of it, since it appeared rather harmless and not unusual for the area. After reading this article, I'm not so sure about how harmless these Critical Mass bike rides are.

It was supposed to be a birthday night out for the kids in San Francisco, but instead turned into a Critical Mass horror show -- complete with a pummeled car, a smashed rear window and little children screaming in terror.

I understand these freaks were trying to make a point. But, if these people ever threaten my children like they did that family in San Francisco, it won't take long for the situation to reach critical mass.
