The Rocky Mountain Tool Collectors is a great organization for those interested in woodworking/metalworking/mining and other artifacts from the days of yore. If you live in Colorado or New Mexico, consider attending a meeting!
Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink, I feel ashamed.
Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery
and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they
might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think,
"It is better to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than
be selfish and worry about my liver." -- Babe Ruth
Ahhhh, the Selsuns. Though this page is old and doesnt quite reflect the current line-up it definitly captures the look and feel of this unique and wonderful Albuquerque band. Mr Fish also plays with the Handsome Family and my own band the Rivet Gang.
Brett and Rennie live down the street from me and write some
of the most fascinating songs I have heard in a while. Their
website is purposefully low res and cheesy which suits them just
fine... check out their latest release Singing Bones, which I have been spinning quite a lot lately.
With a overhand percussive guitar style and a sound much like Michael Hedges, I have really taken to her latest album release. Watch the cool online video clip for Pink Noise.
Just back from the Labour Day weekend festival, despite the rain, it was a fantastic camping trip and great music to be had. My 2 big musical discoveries include mando player Matt Flinner and his current guitarist, Ross Martin. Also was blown away at the workshop by the guitarists for the Waybacks. These guys are well worth looking into further, I know I am!
Listened to these 'books on tape' while driving the kids out to San Diego this summer. The kids had been reading them for a few months, but this was my first exposure. I must say I approve.
I like them
