Oh, the memories. Remembering our time at CityBranch.

What a drummer. What a Rhodes!

Look out little Wayde...giant head Paul will eat you!

Professional Music Center in West Des Moines, IA – Good Job

I’ve got to say, I don’t get my guitars worked on too often, so I don’t know what to expect. A buddy of mine suggested that I take my Statocastor and Burns – Cobra to Shane at Professional Music Center in West Des Moines. I was blown away by the great work Shane did, saving me money by fixing stuff he could have easily over charged me on. In fact, he even did a little clean up on my guitar, totally unasked for, totally unexpected, totally appreciated. Now that’s good business!

Metamorphasis @ the Ames Progressive

We enjoyed yet another stint at the Ames Progressive, playing acoustic music with our friend Milton and checking out the artwork by Phantom Ben Whitmer #2. thought it’s a bit dark and sketchy (much like the song) we hope you enjoy our rough tape of “Metamorphasis” from our show in Ames, IA.

DMMC Music U.

Good music is no good without a way to get it “out there.”A lot of local musicians complain about not getting signed and being mega-successful or whatnot…though a lot of that could be a lack of hard/smart work.

Rather than bemoaning I’m thinking of heading over to the DMMC Music University’s chat with Saddle Creek next Wednesday at the Des Moines Social Club. I suggest the same to local musicians who desire to grow in their craft…see ya there!

Pick it up, Des Moines!
