I was so excited, I had to do a video blog right on the spot. Nerd.

Birds of Wales CD has Arrived!
Saturday, February 20th, 2010Shameless Video Of Me Playing My New Guitar
Friday, February 19th, 2010Shameless video post. Please excuse the vomit face I make when I play…. I’ve spent years trying to stop doing that… trust me, it aint’ going away (though it has gotten better)… I think I inherited it from my dad.
Expect something cooler / plugged in later this weekend when I have a moment to do that.
Xotic Ep-Booster (nerdy guitar content inside)
Sunday, February 14th, 2010I’m in Ottawa this weekend for my cousin Emily’s wedding. Luckily I had a bit of time to head over to the local music shop (which i’ve heard a lot about recently) called Lauzon Music. They had a relatively decent assortment of higher end Gibson’s, Fenders, various acoustic guitars, and a room in the back that had a bunch of Dr Z amps – which was really nice to see. I love me some DrZ! I had a Z28 for some time, and it was certainly one of the nicest built and sounding amp for the money that I can think of. I’d definitely consider getting one of them again in the future (probably a Ghia).
Klon Has Landed
Friday, February 12th, 2010
The Klon pedal arrived today! Yay! So stoked to try this thing out – I hope it was worth all the hype!
In other news, I picked up a Skreddy Screwdriver pedal last night as well. Haven’t played with it for more than an hour, but its certainly going to be a staple on my board. What an amazing pedal. Very Fat sounding. I’ll post some photos, and a review as soon as I get a chance!
Oldie, but a Goodie!
Thursday, February 11th, 2010This is a couple months old now, but I was just watching it, and thought it might be nice to post it here. I believe this is us playing in Saskatoon when we were on our opening tour for Mishka. Good times!
I was playing my old telecaster that had a bigsby on it. Missin’ the bigsby!
The thing I remember the most about this gig, is that it was in this wicked restaurant that gave us the pick of anything we wanted. Naturally, we all chose various meats, Nachos, I think I actually had ribs.. mmmmmmm..
