Throw Your Voice

All of these need captions, but instead of me writing them, you should pull out a sharpie and write them in in the whitespace between the pictures. No, not really. Seriously though, the conference was really fun, I learned a lot about podcasting and a little about blogging. Breakfast from prairie thunder, coffee from cafe evoke and lunch from iguana, all wonderful. It was nice to meet everyone, and hopefully you all like the photos.

Some opolis show or something

Friday was fun as shit. Definitely the best night out I've had in a while that didn't involve getting far too drunk. Actually, there was drinking, of course. But the funness was from the dancing and the company, Amber and Kat and some of their friends, oh yeah, and I saw Grizzly Bear's tour bus. At least, that's what someone said it was. No idea who these bands were, forgot their names already, go to the opolis web site and look i9f you care, but they honestly weren't that great, or I would have written the names down or shot the poster or something. But the night as a whole was a blast.

Ghost Bike:







This guy sucked. Took forever to start and then played bad music.


Amber looks all evil. But I'll give her the benefit of the doubt because she's the whole reason I was down there.

These guys strike me as the kind of music that's enjoyable right now, but we'll be embarrassed about in a couple years.



Dancing at La Luna.

Showed chelsea this, and said, what do you think of it, and she said, it's a good picture but her boobs look hexagonal. So, sorry Amber. Next time I'll try to make you not look evil and hexagonal.

The Opposite Signs... another band post...

I swear I'm not turning into Jeremy Charles, or worse, Annie Leibowitz, but I do seem to be shooting a lot of musicians lately. This band I didn't really like. The sound was super mellow, smooth jazz like, and it really did nothing for me. There were some good moments, when it seemed like a song would break out and do something interesting, but then it got drowned in the hopeless drone.

Deluxe Craft Weekend

Well, samples from the half hour that I was there. It seemed like a really fun time, and if I hadn't been sleep depping and working and whatnot this weekend, I probably would have really enjoyed doing some classes and just sitting around kibitzing with everyone. I could have gotten some of my bookbinding experiments done maybe. Anyway, photos:
