Knit one crochet two
Hey so I just had my first knitting/crochet workshop it turned out great a lot of people showed up for the event and listened to me ramble. Its funny, I use to try to figure out ways to avoid speaking in groups and now i kinda like it. Maybe its just the attention. I was on call last night. Not a bad night. I finally was able to get a website with my current work up.

dang not a very catchy tag is it. Its cool, I'm trying to figure out how to put just sound files up without image. It's sort of myspace for artists.
So this week I have the usual meetings, classes, and work. Also I'm going back up to green bay next weekend for the last show my old band has put together- I've worked these guys for the past 8 years. 10 years for some of them. Its bitter sweet. I'll get to see some old friends. Wait, at what point does a person begin to have old friends?
Well I've got to bands brewing at the moment one called Gastronaut and one called Something French. Very different from each other but both are promising.
Something French is a project I started working on last year with my good friend Graham Hoppe (an alumni of the school as well) We both love folk, blues, and punk rock-our sound isn't any of those. Its a mix between folk elements and experimental electronics.
Where as Gastronaut is an amalgamation of Westerns, Sci-Fi, (both from 50's americana) and Sludge Heavy Metal. It's the guitarist and drummer from new skin and I. We haven't taken off really but have a few tracks recorded to start out with.
Damn I can't stop rambling.
