The Pelican’s Perch

I look like Edward Norton when I have short hair. It’s really funny when four people tell me throughout this last week that I look and sound like the guy. He’s one of my favorite actors, so I’ll take it as a compliment, but it has been a bit odd at the frequency [...]

No time for a post today.  Super busy.  But, I did rework my latest song and added a little outro part and changed the singing a bit.  I think it turned out way better because of the new outro.  The end.
I’ve got post-it notes lining my computer screen with bands to talk about, so expect [...]

This summer’s been insane and kept me super busy, so writing songs wasn’t exactly on the top of my list of things to do, but now that I’ve got more time to myself again, I decided it was a good time to start up again. I originally wrote this song to be a part [...]

Where to begin? Chris had called me wondering if I wanted to fill the fourth seat in the car for their trip to Wisconsin and after all but a minute of thinking, I agreed to go. I’d yet to really get to know Chris and his roommate, so I didn’t know exactly how [...]

While I’ve been a bit helpless regarding the development of our label’s website, I have been doing my part in making connections and simply getting the word out to anyone and everyone.  With the label has come some unexpected opportunities to talk to people I never thought I would and be featured in some pretty [...]

I realize my last post was on Monday, and three days without a post is long, but not unheard of, but to me it feels like it’s been a couple months since I posted.  I imagine the above picture was what Will and I looked like under our selling tent throughout the day today.  Monday [...]

“You have worked 12 hours and 5 minutes” says my cell phone as I logged out today. 
Whew boy what a day.  I think I set the record or came very close to setting the record for games shot in a single day.  Today I did six, but one of them was two “onesies”, meaning you [...]

The things some people will do for money.  In my case, possibly working 70 hour weeks shooting little league baseball games the first two days, then selling all those pictures in the forms of t-shirts, framed posters, full size cutouts etc.  Yesterday was my first taste of a World Series opening ceremony and if you [...]

There should be an unwritten rule that if you want to be a blogger, make sure you have a steady routine to your life so you can post every day.  I drove back to Springfield early this morning, worked with my uncle most the day, took a great nap all afternoon, then did some errands.  [...]

Well, all of Charlie’s hard work is starting to pay off.  He’s got the website up and running and our first band, the Spacetones, and Charlie’s good friends, are being recorded as we speak.  I honestly could not be more excited to get this all started.  For the time being, the site will [...]
