Made this for Jeff Mannix. Who should be moving to Chicago soon. Which is going to be totally tits. If Jeff ever gets his own show, I would definitely play the part of Jeff.
Just ate a Seared Ahi Tuna sandwich at a bar while watching Alien: Resurrection. Warning: Watching aliens explode from rib cages while eating a rare slab of meat gives a stomach the “bubbly oh-nos.”
So now, I...

The Wandering Bears
Beautiful people making beautiful music. Thanks everybody. See you later on down the trail.
Oh yeah.
I got older the other day too. But I feel pretty young these days, because lots of my free time is spent with a 15 year old cat named Daniel. He has a pretty rough time. I count my blessings.

Road Sodas
Yeah yeah yeah. I know, I know. But still. Warm road sodas on a longer than necessary road trip. Man, it’s fucking hard to get out of Chicago. It’s like there’s a tractor beam, sucking your Nissan’s rear bumper, refusing to let you break free. Suburb booby traps that extend forever. We finally made it though.
To be fair the driver only had one.
Get a...
Okay. SO this is some grab-ass from last fall/winter. We were going to make a tour video, but then we really didn’t go on much of a tour. And we forgot to film ourselves playing. The end result is two tapes worth of these dudes in a car.
I’m not saying this is the “best of” whats on those tapes, but there’s a few gems. After taking out all the body parts, and...

I just took a train to Lamoni, IA and back. Officially the best way to travel ever. We got it right the first time. Cars? Danger metal on rubber doughnuts. We need more trains. The only place I failed was a serious lack of snacks. Next time.

I was hauling leather-clad ass in the rain at 2:00 am the other day (I thought it was 1:00. oopshit) when I...
Hot damn at Anode Gallery in Chicago. Good bands and lots of hand rolled cigarettes. Thanks Lee.

internet buzz lightyear
I was without any access to the internet for about a week. I could say nice things about how liberating it was, and how it let my mind relax and just not worry about it, but I won’t. Inject that internet straight into my viens, pleez. Constant IV drip. Speaking of IV drips, I just got a CAT scan the other day, and recieved some strange injections of hot body...

Punk Lunch Part One: Reebock Apocalypse. _Pump it up
It’s comforting to know that in the current state of gloom and doom in this country and abroad, soul-satisfying times can still exist with a garage, some electricity, and a few good people. If Moore’s law continues as everyone says it will (and how could one make it stop if they wanted to?) then before long we’ll be living...
Charlie, Chuy, and the rest of the UI breakers host a jam at the IMU, Iowa City Iowa. I Oughta Wreck Amazing. Come to the next one.
I did not dance. So everybody missed out. Once i can figure out how to break and film at the same time, it’s on. so watch out for that video.

Cheese Please Long day, short video. Weather ranged through all of my favorites: cool breeze, beautiful sunshine, rain, post rain wet sunlight. Kalona Cheese House is a smelly & tasty venue. Was going to interview the folks behind the counter, but they were busy slicing. Besides, it was my birthday, and I was off the clock. (Special guest filming by CMA. Curds and close ups. Naturally)....
Yup. Back at it.
Lamoni is a strange place to get distracted. On the surface, it appears that nothing is happening. No ripples on the water. But the fish beneath are swimming on some sort of discovery mission. Everyone in town is on to something strange and new, and I hear that ‘the legend’ might return sometime soon as well. Maybe we’ll see some of that in the next...
