A Nice Day to Staaaaaaaaart Agaaaaaaainnnnnn

I had a great weekend in Nashville celebrating my good friend Kyle Sloan's wedding.
Here's a pic of Kyle and I in the photobooth.

and a great shot with Nana Sloan (my favourite new lady of the weekend, so friendly and Scottish!)

It was great to make it down for the weekend and see Kyle, Ben & Aileen Fretz, Ben Reynolds, Aaron Mason and Pete and many others! Thanks so much to Kyle, Mandy & the entire Sloan family for putting me up / putting up with me! And of course to PMR for filling in for me slappin' da bass.
More photos to come!

Hang The DJ!

Thanks to Scott for this!

no surprises in the record collection

today i spent the day finishing up the grueling task of completing the inventory of my record collection. over the year i have bought a bunch of new records, and let them pile up on top of my shelf, or even worse, put them away without making note of them in my spreadsheet.

i have 1630 records, and if you'd like to see the list you can just click right there, and here are a few photos.



and i thought this looked cool too.





i look forward to taking photos of my dan yemin related collection once i get the seemingly mythical package of rare paint it black records from andy.

PAT & WADE

here're some shots of pat and scott from the apartment many months ago.





scott's tshirt reminds me that he's djing next thursday night at the drake with andy rourke.

won't go through it all again

thanks to aileen for this.

brunch buddies.

so my pal andrea decided that it would be a good idea to get together for brunch at fressen before she left for san diego or something. of course i was into this, and so was top mealer ross "the weasel" corder, as well as andrea's friend jenna. this meal got good!










afterwards i took this photo of ross in my room when he came over to borrow my camera. i like it a fair bit.


ps - andrea, stop changing your blog address so much, now i have to go catch up on your sulking. :)

eating glass.

here are some photos of eating glass, from what seems to have possibly been their last show before jason & jose decided to quit the band. tension was peaked through this set, and it was actually pretty imminent that the end was near for these guys, which actually made for a good set. i guess when a band that's supposed to sound pissed off are actually pissed off at eachother, that anger transmits and the music benefits. this show was at siesta nouveaux, opening up for the endless blockade.
