Sam’s visiting, so light blogging.
Read More..>>Pomp
One of these days I need to get a shot of my hair in full pomp splendor.
Truth be told, i only started pomping my hair when I joined the Super Devils, since it looked a little weird for two band members to be sporting the pomp while one guy looked like a retired jarhead. [...]

and compare them with Ace and Gary:

Wind Gap 2009
I’ve been off the internet since Friday morning, when Sam and I left for the 2009 Wind Gap Bluegrass Festival, which is about when my camera decided it wanted to die. So I don’t have much of anything other than shots my buddy Nik took.
Last week, i dropped a few more bucks than i [...]
Sam in December 08
After what can only be described as a long and punishing tript to get him, including a blizzard, 4 hours of sleep, the flu, and an hour of interrogation at the border, we had a great visit with Sam. Here are some shots. Click for full size images.
