The Whigs →
Check out the Whigs’ performance on Letterman this week - so much energy, cool stuff. They will be playing at Schubas, one of my favorite places to catch live music in the city, with Tulsa on Feb 9th. I’ll have to write about Tulsa soon, but I’m really liking the Whigs, their drummer is very talented.

The last couple of trips to the grocery store, we’ve managed to come home without a single plastic bag, which is a big plus. Ever since the “I’m not a plastic bag” phenomena alternatives to plastic have sprung up everywhere. All the grocery stores in the area have them and are selling for around $1. We first bought some...
Radius →
My friend Kevin and I led worship at the Radius tonight. It was my first time there, Kevin has led there a couple times before. It was a good night, they are doing a series based on the book UnChristian which has been blogged about a lot recently by a lot of the blogs I read. They had a good time of discussion which went a bit long, so we had to cut our set short, which was fine because we...

World Golf Tour →
Last night I tried out this new game called World Golf Tour. As you can see from the picture it has pretty good graphics. It’s still in its early stages, its supposed to go into its beta phase soon, but for now you can try it out. It promises to be an addicting and productivity killing game since you’ll be able to play against your friends online. I think this game might lure in some...
HELP →
Last month a new edition of the Beatles movie, Help was released. I don’t think anyone can deny the Beatles place in rock and roll history. A lot of the younger generations hear about the Beatles from their parents or other friends in college. This movie was my first exposure to the Beatles. My dad is a big Beatles fan, one day well over a decade ago he brought home this vhs from the...
Guitar Shopping →
I’ve been doing some guitar shopping lately. I’ve been reading up on different brands and models while trying to figure out which guitar I would get next. While doing all this research I came across an interesting piece of guitar history. The way Takamine made their guitars in the late 70’s was just about an exact replica of the much more expensive Martin guitars. They even had...
Happy New Year →
Hope everyone had a fun and safe new year’s celebration. We had a good time hanging out with some friends and playing some wii games. My parents and little sisters are in Chile for the holidays spending time with family there I’m sure they are enjoying their time there. Luckily Elizabeth’s family was able to spend some time here with us for Christmas so we weren’t alone....
