What I'm Up To

Figured it was time for one of these.

-I'm still selling some gear.

-I've been to a few shows that I didn't play at, which rarely happens unfortunately. Androcles & The Lion are good friends of mine and I caught them on Friday. Always a great set. I try to see Easter Island every chance I get because a) they're great and b) they're all awesome friends so I actually get to see them all in one place. Mr. Mustache rules. Fact.

-I went to see Tycho at the GA Theatre. Sick. Rory kills it on drums. He'll be playing with Com Truise when they come through ATL. Don't miss that shia.

-Gigs with: White Violet, Monahan, The Viking Progress

-I've got a jazz gig with my friends Jon Cathey and Nathan Pillsbury in Cumming on the 13th. It's at a festival...but that's all I know.

-18" hi-hats. That's what's up.

-I bought a Dunnett Snare......

-I got a couple of new students (finally)

-I've been working on a huge variety of stuff: New Breed, Language of Drumming, Syncopation, Stick Control, learning a boatload of songs that I may record and put on youtube.

-I'm going to take some lessons with Brian Stephens, a great drummer in ATL. Everyone needs someone to help them focus and hold them accountable. I'm actually really, really excited about it.

-pacificUV is finishing up studio stuff. Technically, the drums are done lest there be overdubs.

-Doctor Who and I need to play some catch-up.

-The Newsroom is a fantastic show.

-Hopefully, I'll have the sunroof repaired in the Mercedes soon, which means there will be some driving. Still gotta fix those pesky dash lights...

-I broke my personal best mileage in the Tardiswagon: 50.26 mpg w/ 847.1 miles on a tank

So that's what is up.
