Hey everyone. I know it’s been awhile, that it’s funny that my last “real” post was over a year ago stating that I would blog more. Well, guess I was wrong! Sorry about that… although it’s not like you missed all that much, anyway. :)

So I just finished re-doing my entire site. I didn’t do a redesign, so if you didn’t notice much of a difference, that is why. Basically, the last version was entirely XSLT-driven (and I really mean entirely), with just a main page and the gallery. It was fun to code at the time, but I was…

I saw Guster last Friday, 4/6, at Stubb’s. I admit it was probably one of the most, if not the most, memorable Guster concerts for me. Not because of how awesome it was, or how ecstatic I was to see them. In fact, the evening was mostly UNenjoyable (but not entirely).

Than and I headed out around 7:45pm to Stubb’s to get there early. I was pretty excited to see Guster - my only favorite band from early college until recent days (when I discovered bands like Spoon, Wilco, and What Made Milwaukee Famous) - even though I saw them at…

Yesterday evening, Than and I were walking on the Town Lake trail along Auditorium Shores, just finishing a run. As we were approaching the zero mile marker, a very familiar-looking dude on a bike stopped short in front of us to observe one of the trail’s maps/signs. Of course, subconsciously, I knew exactly who it was - it was Ryan Miller of my favorite band Guster. Duh - they’re in town because they’re playing a show at Stubb’s here tonight, a show that I bought tickets for two months ago. For some reason though, my mind seemed a bit confused yesterday…

Just finished Day 1 of the Austin City Limits Festival 2006. That’s right, I’m going to ACL this year! And anyway, how can you NOT go???

It was pretty awesome. Today I saw GUSTER, Gnarls Barkley, Thievery Corporation, and Van Morrison. I’m going to make it a tradition to add to my growing list of lifetime Guster shows after each one I see, so here you go:
