Photos from recent adventuring!

Mt. Tammany, Delaware Water Gap.

Sunny and Jess along the Lehigh Gorge Trail.

Diesel Engine near Jim Thorpe, PA.

In 2009 I’m going to post more photos. No more rants about how awesome “band-x” is because of some video (at least for awhile).

This week, my review of Fleet Foxes is in City Paper (#20, second-to-last album). It was #1 for me by far.

Happy new year everyone!

I’ve got about a half-pint of Soy Delicious Cookie Avalanche waiting for me, so here’s New Young Pony Club “Ice Cream.” I used to play that very same Roland keyboard.

Quick Update

Spending Thanksgiving at a cabin in Pine Grove Furnace State Park. Everything is going to be vegan!!

I’ve been spending a lot of time with Greensock TweenLite, which really makes ActionScript tweening a breeze. I’m about to head out to work and deal with a navigation problem in a new Flash I am working on. Something is weird with the variable I use for navigation. I’ll figure it out.

Tonight is the biggest party night of the year, the first in awhile where I don’t have to go out to “da club” and take photos of the bacchanalia that ensues. Tiki Bob’s, I don’t miss you.

It’s about time I start having fun with this blog again, so let’s begin with Pale Saints “Throwing Back the Apple.”

Musically, I’ve been living in the UK circa 1992 for two years now. You know, shoegazers. This video explains some reasons why: huge sound, attention to guitar tone detail, spaced out drums, a chorus in 5, female vocals, ’90s nostalgia. And those bulbous apples are pretty sweet too.

In other news, I’m having a photo opening at 1 Shot Coffee tomorrow! You should come hang out.

Opening Saturday!

It’s never too late for an opening. These photos will be up through the end of November and on sale via etsy.com very soon.

Show at 1 Shot for November!

Hey, I posted some photos in a portfolio-like arrangement. Imagine that! Tomorrow I am hanging a show for the month of November at 1 Shot Coffee in Northern Liberties. A lot of these pics have never been seen in Philly, so you should come check them out! It’s on Liberties Walk, holla back google maps! Maybe buy something too, papa needs a new bag of groceries!

I’ll post a page of articles I’ve written soon, but for now check out this blog post on Earth Bread & Brewery for City Paper’s brand new Meal Ticket. In other recent news, Pumpkin Beers!
