Cadillacula

My first show went well. Now we need a bass player replacement.

Got my old camera working

It's really only good for snaps (and taking those is a chore), but it's got a little wider of an angle than our other one.

Holiday tattooing

I tattooed my friend Randy last night. I lined and shaded a good sized (whole top of his forearm) cowboy themed piece. On top of paying me - even after I told him he didn't have to - he gave me a couple cigars and this:



I'm not a regular whiskey drinker, especially good whiskey, so I thought this was really cool. Note the wax dipped bottle neck.

I thought it was a really considerate thing for him to do and I really appreciated it, and it made me feel really satisfied since he really liked how his tattoo came out. I only really hang out with him when I tattoo him (like many friends) but I always end up wanting to spend more time with him. I'll add that to my new years resolution list.

Furthermore, tomorrow night is Krista's company holiday party. I, along with my adoring wife, and probably everybody else there will end up blotto, but rather than it being from my new bottle of whiskey, it'll be a result of the open bar at Maggiano's Little Italy.

Hiiyyyyooooooooo!

Luck

Last night at the Xmas party for the company I work for, Krista and I won a 32" lcd TV in a raffle. That was pretty lucky. I wish I had bought a lotto ticket for that night too.

Denver Hardcore?

I have no idea what this is, but somehow Bosnia is credited to making an appearence in this incredibly lame looking documentary.



I have no idea how we have anything to do with this nonsense (though I'd probably point the blame at Steve) but I would probably shit my pants and eat it if I found out any of the guys behind this or featured in it sincerely liked us (or have even heard us).

Flesh Made To Suffer/Nick Oxner

All of my copies off the Flesh Made To Suffer (band I sang for in 2001 & 2002) CD are scratched and unplayable, so I googled it to try to find mp3s online. The closest I found is below, in case you as well would like to hear:

Additionally, for those who didn't read my way too long band history, FMTS originally had a guitar player named Nick, who died in early 2002. I found a couple old links that I thought would be appropriate to post.

Here is a show review of the show we played just a few days after he died. It was the closest thing to a funeral/wake Nick got. Scroll to the entry on February 9th, 2002.

Here is a messageboard thing that was put up right after he died for people to put up goodbyes, memories, etc.







Now after reading all this, I am going to try to organize a reunion show for next year.

BSK Recording Journal

I shot some video while we were in Salt Lake City. I edited it together into two parts.
