I'm so proud of my student bands! Here's a highlight clip from their recent concert. Local friends: I'm looking for keyboard players for one of my grownup bands (the 2nd one in the video). Any experience level OK. Please spread the word!

If you see this, post your fave character in ALL of Star Trek

I made a drum riser! I got the idea from a couple drummers I found on YouTube. It uses buckets for legs. Surprisingly sturdy and portable. It breaks down to a stack of buckets and two 3' x 6' platforms. It worked great at a concert this weekend.
A collage of four photos showing the progression of a DIY drum riser project. Photo 1 shows bucket lids screwed onto the underside of a piece of plywood. Photo 2 shows the platform upright with buckets attached to those lids as legs. Photo 3 shows the same platform with carpeting attached. Photo 4 shows the final riser in use on a stage with a skirt around the base to hide the buckets.

One of my ongoing projects is making my own backing tracks for some of my favorite songs for playing live. This one is so cheesy yet I just love it to death. I'm sure many of y'all will recognize it. #80s #covers

Introduce yourself in four video games. (This was REALLY hard to narrow down!)
A screenshot from the video game "Marathon 2" showing the heads up display and first person perspective of the player shooting shotguns at aliens. A screenshot from the video game "World of Warcraft" showing three player characters, a gnome and two elves, standing in front of Stormwind, a major hub city in the game. A screenshot from the video game "Deus Ex: Human Revolution" showing the main character Adam Jensen hiding behind a wall preparing to clear a room. A screenshot from the video game "Baldur's Gate 2" showing the user interface, character portraits, and the environment, in this case a city square.

I'm too #rock for the #synthwave folks... and too synthwave for the rock folks. 🤣 (Now with alt text!)

Hi everyone from the exodus! I make pop/rock songs, often with a lot of synths, guitars, and 80s/90s inspiration. Here's a clip of my latest release, a collaboration with German synth artist UAP.

Post a picture of yourself to show the newbies what they’re dealing with
A man stands on a beach with an electric guitar strapped on. He is wearing an imitation leather jacket and jeans and smiling at the camera.

NEW NAGOON alert!

Hey everyone, please enjoy my new song "Garden" featuring Alyssa Fischer. It's synthpop with trip hop and rock elements and tells the story of a long distance relationship pre-internet, when we wrote letters!

New single coming Friday (Bandcamp) and Nov. 10 (streaming)!

I sing it myself and it's all about knowing you gotta leave even if you don't have a plan beyond that.

I'm just getting started here on BSky so shares etc. appreciated.
