This is a scam. It’s for Sascha Baron Cohen’s next project. Borat is funny, but Sascha is anti-Gaza.

fixing the case for my Kazakh dombra while playing Mystikal, Naughty by Nature, Onyx, Black Rob...

...I dunno, seemed appropriate

Rivets would be really difficult on this fragile, narrow necked case, so I used Chicago Screws.

Danger! Get on the floor!

Hey, Pride was a riot!

Eric is stage managing this event. Also DJing a little. Playing some bass. And hanging with such amazing performers as Pickle The Drag Queen and @ryancassata.bsky.social and Tya and more!

Come on down and eat yummy food, check out vendors, and dance!

1661 is officially a trio! We are super psyched to have actor, voice talent, and superb singer and multi instrumentalist Carolina Hoyos joining us!

Carolina is a nonbinary Afro-Indigenous badass with roots in Ecuador and Peru. Time to rock! 🤘🏼 🤘🏾

Got to supervise Gustavo Santoalalla and friends at Deadline Sound and Screen. Gustavo is a nice guy. Chatted with his wife about “Rompen Todo”.

80% of all silver exports came from Cerro de Potosí, one mountain in Bolivia, for 200 years, starting in 1545.

During that time, between 300,000 to 8 million Quechua, Aymara, and Mestizo miners died, due to harsh and poisonous working conditions.

It is still mined today.
