This next video was a fun little exercise. I needed to find a place in town so I wouldn't have to continue to commute from Waialua to my new Handi Van job. A good friend and I were seriously thinking of getting a place together. Anyway, you get the idea, I went on a tour of [...]

The above screen shot is from 2008. It was the first video I uploaded to YouTube that was of artists other than myself. I was still living in Waialua, on the north shore of Oahu and my band Social Smokers was playing regularly at a bar in Haleiwa called "Kainoa's Pancake House and Sports Bar".  The [...]

So Smoke em, while you can We’re all dying slowly anyway man ------------------------------------- The creative juices were certainly flowing back in early 2008. Despite the chaos of my life, I was writing songs left and right. Here's another video I put up on YouTube that same day I did Good Boy. It's called Smoke Em While you [...]

Well I used to be a good boy, but that’s a long time ago If it was ever good for anything it’s in the stories I have told   ------------------------------------------------------------ Indeed,  This process of looking back and writing these stories about being a good boy is good for a whole lot. Perhaps everything. They bring up what [...]

It’s about self care It’s about care for others It’s about... -------------------------------------- Here and now. Here and now I stir my cup, type a few more words, snap a photo of me and Roxy to use as the featured image for today’s post. I smile, aware of the absurdity of this. This attempt at the [...]
