Forever changes

Wes A: Have you met Arthur Lee and Love?

Joel: I don't believe that I've had the pleasure. Could you introduce us?

Wes A: You're hearing them right now.

Joel: Holy crap.

Demo Vault - East of Eden


Back in the early winter of 2007 i wrote and recorded a set of songs on glorious analog tape running reel to reel through a tascam four-track recorder. One of those songs became known as ‘east of eden’. It began as this impromptu strummage.

Pipe dreams

We've been trying to wrap up production for the handicraft exchange which arrives october 2nd and 3rd at the harrison center for the arts. Go here for the whole story and essential details. Apparently, the little one took seven steps tonight while i was making coffee for insomniacs. I don't even know i can fall asleep this morning knowing that.
Also:
-beatle mania '09
-supporting local
-losing neighbors
-licensed to grill
-dreaming of scarfs

This is ridiculous. I'm supposed to be sleeping not blogging unconsciously while casually viewing 'married: with children.'

Good night.

Act now while supplies last

Besides being noisy, they're just straight-up creepy. Therefore, due to the recent high-volume cricket activity inside the Rockey home, we've had to invent a humane/clean way of eliminating these unwanted guests. Behold, The Incredible Cricket Catching Contraption (patent pending)! Now available exclusively from A Rockey Home Companion for the introductory price of $5.99 (+ Shipping & Handling). Price not available to orders outside of the continental US.
Works every time.

Cakes and cake

The jane gals and i spent three days traveling to toledo and back through fort wayne. Two days with our extended family, the furrows to share in the grand celebration that was the blessed union of mr and mrs celizic...

Sinking in the extended stay.
Saturday morning, we up-and-at-em'd with the hyman crew and bounced over to the mighty fort for nephew kyle's number 3 and wedding numero deuce (that being of the newly pronounced mr and mrs tatlock).
A mighty long time for the wee one to be away from home and on the road.

Thanks for all the cake.

Pluggin away

Hot off the press. Cool on the chest.

Go in and say howdy to dan (aka dill) & toni (aka joan) @ the strange brew coffee house.

Good vibes of all kinds.
Don't worry, she said it was cool.
