I am the eggman

Crisi and I spent Thanksgiving day in Maryville with her dad's side of the family. I spent a little time with Papaw exploring his "Ponderosa Ranch." All of the buildings you see were built by hand by him.

ROCK CITY. We saw it.

Third photo's a charm

Toney at Audiomasters was awesome and gave me trade in credit on the table that disintegrated, so I picked this one up instead. Sounds a little brassier than the other, and it definitely doesn't look as cool, but it works. Now I can listen to Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass in peace.

I wanted a rock

Shortly after yesterday's picture was taken, the turntable died. Though it has been a great month for music, Fortuna's wheel is whisking my luck away.

We want a rock

It's been a great month for music...new records by The Flaming Lips, Raveonettes, Pearl Jam, and Monsters of Folk. Plus I got a new turntable and found TMBG's Flood on vinyl (on which record the namesake of my blog is found.) Spin the black circle.

I also got this sweet new toy at Fall Fest.

Fall Fest 2009 - Photos by Crisi

Fall fest this year was fun, though less photogenic than last year. Maybe this is because it was really cold and I didn't feel like taking pictures. However, while we were at the Kansas concert Friday night, I had the idea for this gem:

Crisi nailed it. That's me and Billy Greer, Kansas's bassist since 1986 and defacto front man. He was an intense man.


And here's me with TN's largest pumpkin this year.
