My First 6 Miles
May 2, 2009
In training for my half marathon for 2009, I completed my first 6 miles today. Granted, it was run 5.75 miles and walk the rest…it was still 6 miles. I failed miserably on the 28th (my first attempt at 6). I made it 6 miles, but my knee went out after 4 miles and I walk/jogged the rest of the way.

U of M Fokus and the Diag
April 14, 2009
It’s a late night studio session. 3:30am and I thought I’d just brag about what an awesome time I had this Saturday. You ever go to a show and it was so awesome you wish everyone you knew could’ve been there. Words are just not enough to describe what a great show we all saw. Thanks to Fokus! Great music, food, cotton candy, beautiful weather, dancing . . . hell . . . what more can you ask for!
Selfmeyi was up first and our set started at noon. You would think at noon that people would be walking around and ignoring you, but the crowd we had was hype! Everyone was into the music and the sound was great. Thanks to DJ Ted for spinning our tracks. Me and Self both have a lot of work to do because we’re still trying to get our first single so we were planning on listening for a few groups and go and work. Yeah . . . that didn’t work out. We ended up staying the whole day. We just couldn’t leave. Every group that went up made us want to stay and listen. I was a true music fan that day.
I even got to see a band that I’ve been listening to for like 1-2 years. Manolete (formerly The Day Manolete was Killed). I got their CD from Kay at the Future Art Gallery and I’ve been playing their CD without ever going to their website. I think I tried looking one time, but they didn’t have too much setup so I stopped looking and just played their CD to death. How geeked was I when they started playing. The whole time I was telling Self, “I’ll know it’s them within 5 minutes.” Sure enough it was them. Awesome day.
I gotta give props to everyone that performed at the show. Hopefully I won’t forget anybody… Celsius Electronics, Darren Criss, Gist, J.A.M.E.S. Watts, Mae Day, N.V.R. flo, Manolete, Vox Maui, and especially Jessica, DJ Teddy Ruck Spin, and Brian for the hospitality and privelage of coming out and jamming.
