I recorded our band, Roadside Attraction, on a blustery Autumn day. We started playing together on the back deck during the pandemic, so decided to return with an acoustic live performance. Here is a video playlist with high quality audio for your enjoyment.

On my ride home yesterday, I found public art vandalized. I remembered that our mayor was asking for haiku’s to read at city council meetings. In Milwaukie, Oregon are seen, you are valued, you are loved.

One of my favorite things is being the first one at the clinic and flipping on the lights. It’s staying nice and cool here in the myofascial bodywork studio. Here’s a few self-care reminders for this week’s heat wave.

I re-arranged my main pedalboard today, taking TheGigRig’s Humdinger off my older live looping board. Now, I have mono, stereo, wet-dry, or wet-dry-wet options again in the pedalboard I use with the band. Thanks to Old Town Music for helping me get creative with the power supply.

New guitar amp day! I paired up my new Laney Lionheart Foundary Super 60-112 with my Supro Black Magick. I am looking forward to a long weekend making a lot of music!

A day off to make music. Here is an ambient improvisation, making a drone with the Studiologic NumaCompact X SE and playing the Reverend Double Agent OG guitar. On the pedalboard is the Wampler Tumnus and Universal-Audio Del-Verb going into the Supro Black Magick and Blackstar HT-5R valve amps.

My bodywork day wrapped up early, so I had time to sit in the shade and finish whittling my third triple spiral. I used the MKM Pocket Tango and Victorinox Pioneer X Alox Swiss Army Knife.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Whittling progress, finishing up a triple spiral with the LionSteel B35 fixed blade and cleaned up the inner rungs with the Victorinox Rambler Swiss Army Knife. #whittling #woodcarving #bushcraft #edc #fixedblade #swissarmyknife #victorinoxrambler

In a previous video, I demonstrated an issue I found with the Japan Grand piano tone on the Studiologic Numa Compact X SE. I wrote to Studiologic and they provided a solution very quickly! Here’s my follow up video… Japan Grand piano issue fixed!

After going to sauna and then lunch at the farmers market, I stopped by Spoke & Word Books. I picked up a copy of The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Ruben… I flipped it open, read a half page, and knew this was my next read.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.
