Up & Out

I have graduated from high school. Tomorrow my family is off to Italy and then to England. Off I go!

Return to HH Film Fest

I have just received pictures from the previously mentioned film festival party (see April 21st), and let me say, my face deserves to be printed on a shirt. It was lots of fun, everyone looked smashing while workin' it on the red carpet, AND, I am pleased to announce my video's winning of both best movie and best soundtrack. Grazie, grazie.

Wesley the Wager, and a Good Friend

Barack Obama keeps rising up (just keep clicking!)...which reminds me, I must still register! How great! A tip for convincing the bowling alley people to let you bowl a game 20 min before closing: Tell them you have a wager with your friend, winner takes all. They, without thinking twice, will ask you for your I.D., and then ask for you to shout out shoe sizes. Speed is the name of the game here, since you will need exactly 20 min for 3 people to bowl a complete game. We accomplished this with ease, shocking the man at the counter. I think he was proud of us. I bowled a 109, losing to a 121. Therefore, I was forced to give up Wesley, a nice little gold fish whom I kept in a glass in the cup holder of my car all night. I'm sure he was happy to finally settle down after the festivities.

Yesterday was the first day I sat down and played my set since the disbanding of the Fembots. Nothing has really seemed to change other than I am in a sinking rut of classic rock which I desperately need to free my chops of. Well, not free exactly, but just expand the style library. It's been too long. Maybe one day I'll play in a band for JayZ, or session with Kanye. But for now, there's just more listening and playing, and mostly listening. I've found thats the best way to learn, lots of listening and mimicking. And videos like these:
