Cleanse Song

Hear the chimes, did you know that the wind when it blows
It is older than Rome and all of this sorrow
See the new pyramids down in old Manhattan
From the roof of a friend's I watched an empire ending
Heard it loud and long the river's Om
Time marching on to a madman's drum

Don't forget what you've learned all you give is returned
And if life seems absurd what you need is some laughter
And a season to sleep and a place to get clean
Maybe Los Angeles, somewhere no one is expecting
On a de-tox walk through the Glendale Park over sidewalk chalk
Someone wrote in red, "start over"
So I muffled my scream on an Oxnard beach
Full of fever dreams that scare you sober
Into saltless dinners


Take the fruit from the tree, break the skin with your teeth
Is it bitter or sweet? All depends on your timing
Like a meeting of chance with the train station glance
Many lifetimes had past in a instant reminded
Of a millstone house in a seaside town
When your heart gave out in a mission bed
So your wife gave birth to a funeral dirge
You woke up purged as a wailing infant
In Krung Thep, Thailand

Hear the chimes, did you know that the wind when it blows
It is older than Rome and our joy and our sorrow

Flight Of The Conchords

I love Flight Of The Conchords.
I can't wait for season two!

new paintings to come...

It's not the best photo, I took it with my phone, but here is the latest greatest that I have done... I plan on try to sell everything so I can buy a screening set.

ben kweller sha sha'ed me

Callie and I had a great time at the kweller show.....He was too drunk to notice that we were molest hugging him. fantastic show. The best of the summer by far I would say.

...

i have too much time on my hands....

hooray for ryan adams!!!!

and of course I had to do Frida Kahlo.
hahahaa... the fist on her shirt cracks me up.....

broken nose

in roughly a month i will have surgery to *crosses fingers* hopefully fix my sinus problems. im sick of being sick. never thought i a broken nose could be a good thing.

how kick ass is my job....

One of our assignments is to pick our favorite song and tell them why.

It is a project for trend & innovation.

It has been really hard to try to pick one song... and the choices were stacked as high as the eye can see.... My favorite artist is Ryan Adams, and his collection of songs is one to be in awe of, after days of thinking about my favorite song from him I realized it really varied from the mood I was in.

At one point I thought about not choosing him at all and going with another artist. It was too hard to pick.

But after much thought and consideration...
I have picked "Firecracker" for the line:
"Broken bluesy whisper sing to me tonight"

That is a line I almost got tattooed on my body, and although the list was long of favorites, if someone is willing to permanently mark their body with something, then that must mean something. Those words are still as strong and vibrant to me the like it is the first time I heard it.

wowie wow wow

If everyone recycled just one tenth of their newspapers, we would save about 26 million trees a year.

two inspirational artists...

jesse fleig

ray caesar

the kings of leon

I entered the kings shirt contest. Its nice and clean.
I would like it to wrap around the side of the shirt.

please tell me you seen:
"The Dramatic Chipmunk"
on bestweekever.tv......


Although the "Curses!" is pretty sweet, the pirate
i made could be a close second to the monocle.

wolfmother

To be perfectly honest I was not really sure what to expect, but I did know that regardless I would have great company. Wolfmother really brought it and kept it coming all the way to the end fros, side kicks two neck guitars and all. And a bonus to boot Mark was there.

Sidebar: This without a doubt has been the greatest summer of rock for me. I giddy like a little girl when I think of the great shows to come and I of course throughout it all have had my sidekick Callie to enjoy and high five for each show.

the faint

The Faint was sexcellent Sunday nite. They played all my favs. So good times all around. The second band was lame and full of themselves... But lets get back to the Faint. A great movie reel played behind them, I loved it.

sell sell sell

lately i am experimenting with stencils, i hope to turn out some stuff that can sell.
