Tara Scheyer and the Mud Puppy Band  got me out of my musical hibernation.  The CD has been a favorite of ours for the past year or so.  I jumped on the chance to make music with them.  I have never been more excited about being in a band.  Fun times, for sure.  Check out […]

Casey Leonard was a good friend from high school.  Before his days as a break-beat dj, we was a skilled and “speedy” drummer.  From 1995-1997, Casey and I were in a local punk/hardcore band “Foul Mouth.”  Casey will be missed both in the local Augusta music scene as well as in his large circle of […]

Andy Donnan (Donnan Photography).  We’re long time friends. Andy’s taken some great shots of my child.  I took this pic with […]

Be sure to head downtown for the First Friday festivities, and be sure to pick up the latest copy of the Verge.  I’m proud of my wife who wrote a great article in this issue.

For my brother’s birthday, a pile of us are having a little gathering for tea and cookies at Club Hollywood. The show will be totally off the chain to be sure…I guess I’m officially of chaperon age. In recent years, I’ve become a big fan of Maylene and the Sons of Disaster (check […]

I live in Augusta, GA - home of the Masters Golf Tournament. The tradition of golf is huge in this town (although I’m much better at disc golf), but not everyone knows the local tradition of watching the planes take off after the tournament. Locals flock to the supermarket parking lot across the […]

It’s been a few years since I first heard the music of Trent Monk. He’s come a long way, and the Monk and Neagle stuff sounds great!
Trent will be performing a special living room concert tonight at Vintage 965 (thanks Ben and Claire for putting this all together!) The concert is FREE but […]

For the first time in my life, I attended an auction. Today, Melody, Emaline, and I went to the Fat Man’s “pre-demolition” auction: a cultural experience of ridiculous proportions! Like a scene from a movie, a fast talking man with a bullhorn rapidly and rhythmically spouted off numbers and instructions, conjuring up responses […]
