I found out over lunch that a friend of mine died last week. His name was Tony, and he was a big, jovial, happy-go-lucky man that would always bring a smile to everyone’s face down at the cafe in our building. He was VERY young, not even 40. He died of a heart attack last [...]

Busy weekend ahead finishing up www.btwco89.com and planning to do a bit of work on the novels as well as find another article idea to submit a query for. That and laundry. Grr. I got a new wireless mic for stage — it’s based on the old Samson Que mics which I LOVED but were [...]

Finally got my article submitted to Pocket PC Magazine. Won’t get edited for another week, so I can work on some other projects in the meantime. I’ll post when it’s available at bookstores and newsstands. Simutronics released their new StormFront front end for GemstoneIV to beta test. Kinda interesting interface, a lot of slick bells [...]

Went to a GREAT concert in Dallas last night — it was KISS and Aerosmith, two classics. Saliva opened for them, they were okay, but had that typical “I’m a mean dude so listen to my growly snarly voice” thing goin on. All it meant was that by song three his voice was practically gone. [...]

Finally renewed the tekchic.com hosting, it was down for about 3 weeks. Nice to be back up, going to add a ton when I have the time, which is usually the premium around here.

Monday. Yawn. Blech. Formatted my Sony laptop and my Compaq desktop over the weekend, along with a gig on Saturday night which was rather utterly boring. Oh well, this weekend’s Cherokee Yacht Club and Velvet Room, so we’re gonna own, it’ll be far more fun. I’m thinking I might not even accept any more Boston’s [...]

Another weekend…..tiring, yes. Fun, yes. I’d love to see the stats on the Velvet Room for cash run through the place in a night — I think we may have the record on that one. It was to date the most phenomenal, fun, amazing gig I’ve played with SMiRK yet, and looking forward to many [...]

Just got off the phone with Jeff Scheel from Gravity Kills. He’s doing our bookings now for SMiRK and is just an all around awesome guy. He got us a booking at Velvet Room next Saturday (June 14th) with the acoustic show. I’m looking forward to it!! :) Working on some band stuff tonight. This [...]

Saw “Finding Nemo” yesterday. Praise to Pixar Animation Studios. You guys are the best. I’ve never seen animated water look like that before. *W-O-W*!

All I have to say is that things with SMiRK are beginning to look VERY VERY good. More to come when I can talk about it. Suffice to say that …… an IMPRESSIVE show is on its way.
