Fellow Pilot

A co-worker sent me this because I'm a pilot.

Baby Wants Pie

Paris 2004

Not a great photo bit it was cool to see a band cutting loose by the Seine.

West Fork Bike Ride

On Saturday I rode with James and Peter on the West Fork Bike Path in the Angeles National Forest. It was 18 Miles

Old Los Angeles Zoo

New Addition to the Family

Ibanez ARX 320. I needed a guitar that I could easily do alternate tunings on. I'll be playing with Open D minor Tuning soon.

Flying the Grumman

Last December I flew my Grumman Tiger to Half Moon Bay. I flew low and fast: 200ft off the water and about 130 MPH. It was awesome. The way back was pretty much just straight home.

It was my longest trip since flying the plane home last year.

Guitar Playing

I currently working on some songs. I will post them soon.



I'm also learning Powerslave by Iron Maiden.

Iron Maiden!

On May 30th I saw Iron Maiden at Irvine Meadows (I refuse to say Verison Wireless Amphitheater).

It was like it was back in the 80's. They only played the old songs.

Shit! Where have I been?

I've not update anything in forever. My work on Vacantplanet has sort of died for the moment. I've been playing guitar for 20 years and decided that its time to get good at it. For the past 8 months I've been practicing for 2-3 hours a day. I recently bought these two new guitars. The top one is the f-amazing Ibanez S5470 Prestige. The other is a 7-String Ibanez RG.

I will post some of my music soon!

New Years in Paris

I expected the french to cut loose a little more. But Paris was awesome.

Christmas in Paris

Alicia and I are in Paris for Christmas. Yesterday we bought an X-mas tree and ornaments near Notre Dame and hauled them on foot back to the hotel near the Arc D'Triumph. For Christmas Day we slept until 1pm. After eating and exchanging gifts we saw Woody Allen's Dixieland Jazz Band in an old fashion music hall.

On X-mas Eve we had the classic French waiter. He was a impatient prick. Even the French patrons at Cafe Pont Neuf took notice. Today we had two great waiters who were patient with my limited french.

London

Alicia and I are in London for a few days before heading to Paris for the Holidays. I got a head shave and beard trim at Truefitt and Hill. Established in 1805, Truefitt and Hill have had Winston Churchill and members of the Royal Family as clients.
