Been listening to Peter Gabriel’s “So” this week. What a masterpiece.

My kids are getting into Jeff Buckley right now and the misses and I are very proud.

Sometimes I think about the fact that Billy Corgan was probably, what, 27 when they recorded Mellon Collie and I get really impressed.

I never thought it would happen to me, but I’ve become one of those musicians that has spent over 5 years on an album. But the good news is it’s still moving along. Glacially. But at least it’s moving.

Successfully paid at the donut shop using my phone and didn't fumble like a luddite. Maybe I'm learning.

Dinner of dad-champions: kids' leftover pizza crusts.

I know last time I said, "This is the last guitar I'm going to buy!" but this time I mean it. Maybe.

Wow, I don't even know what to say about NAMM this year. I ran into and met so many people and felt like a humble little piece of this big old gear community. I took exactly 1 picture across 4 days and 3 events.

Really been into the work of Maxfield Parrish the last few days. Which led me into a hole of looking up really old Harper's and LIFE magazine covers.

This was peak media consumption and I cannot be convinced otherwise. The future was so close.

An online conversation in which someone said they've never owned a guitar longer than 3 years made me realize I've never owned a guitar *less than* 3 years. Huh.

I'm just here to claim my username. And, you know, get off of *those* social media platforms.
