Beutiful photography just sent in by Julie Y. from the MAC of Olive, me and Leapin' louie doing a gig.

Batman Circus Confidential BACKSTAGE!

This a a view of behind the fourth wall and looking out! The audience was packed together like sardines but backstage you could land a squadron of flying pot bellied pigs!

The Captain sits in his chair next to a strappin' young man in a tu-tu...all agree he wears it well. Boss Capt. St. Christopher had the vision and went to Hades and back just to see his dream come to fruition.

Rootbeer!

The four folks whos job keeps us going! Door guy and merch crew. THANKS!

I have to wait until the DVD comes out to see the whole show because during some parts of the show we be hiding inside walls and creeping around getting into positions and stuff. If you came to the show and dug any of the fantastic performers so much you would like them to come to your event I'm happy to forward requests.

Jack's Pad.

Just after doors I hadn't heard from the table people. I wanted to see if our merch team was in position but I couldn't go into the crowded lobby and give up my character before the show so I took a telephoto lens and aimed it at a mirror in the room our friend's was station. There he is at his post!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay backstage like a quarter of a mile.We had a couple of hours between shows.

Booze line!

This weekend at the Watershed!!!!

We worked on one of the biggest music video productions I have ever worked on. I can't show you much because it's not my present to open.

You will see it soon enough when it's on TV all over the world.

I have been in the Open Mic game a long time. To keep it real I have to occasionally do maintenance to our stuff to keep it working in peak condition.

A good way to make sure the PA brain has enough energy for a open mic I like to dump 20 oz. columbian blend coffee into it's works. They have way better coffee at Sound Grounds cafe but that's a waste when industrial coffee works just as good.

And for a rich sound in my guitars I like to dump in at least a pound of crispy bacon fat every year. I have to perform this duty outside because Rootbeer is not cool with the smell of pork. I had to cook the stuff on the engine block of my neighbor's hot rod. The bacon cost $3 and I used $8 in gas just cooking it. Its worth it for good music.

lots of kid gigs!

While making balloons on the street the other day...

We got flanked by a squadron of naked bicyclists!!!!
My friend went to China, when she said she was from Portland USA they mentioned the Naked Bike Ride. So China knows about us. I enjoyed being in a naked bike ride once. This isn't The Naked bike ride...it's an independent ride as there tend to be many.We are all closed up all winter that when the sun pops out, people pop out of their britches!

The world Naked Bike ride is this weekend. Look em up if that interests you I bet they would love a volunteer or two. Ring my bell if you want to know how to participate.

Fliers!!!

She is a good business woman, sexy, smart, healthy and friendly! That's who I have been wanting to work with this whole time!

money stickers look real.

lots of kid gigs!

Open Mic at Sound Grounds is a real live music expierience.
