gadabout: saturday night feelin alright

Published by admin under gadabout

sorry for the delay…I’ve been crazy busy lately…this is last weekend just in time for this weekend…

Friday night at Andy’s The Vibes opened for Dun and the headliner didn’t show up…so congrats on your second headlining gig fellas…

The Vibes are such an amazing rock band the lead singer can’t even drink at the bar yet and he rocks my face off every time without fail…

This was Dun’s last show as a two piece they’ll be adding drums (Adam from Villans) and another guitar…

They remind me a lot of incubus before incubus sucked…(think science)


The Boiler Room put my Lone Star in a Miller Lite cup…I think there are laws about things like this…

Saturday was the Formal @ Kettle…Sergio Garcia’s show looked sharp…

I tried to explain that all true Texans own a pair of boots…I don’t think anyone was listening…

Chris and Andee…I think this is pretty iconic…

These photos are absolutely breathtaking. Domesticated opens @ Kopeikin Gallery in Los Angeles Saturday, the 16th. If you are going to be in the area I would highly suggest checking it out. It almost makes me wish I lived in LA…almost.

I have a few more things I have to do before it’s official but I signed up last night to be a ref for our lovely Dallas Derby Devils. First Practice Sunday. I haven’t been on quads since I was about 10 years old.  If you have an idea for a derby name I’d love tho hear it.

gadabout: stink love

Published by admin under gadabout

For Living in the Lone Star State this stuff is hard to find in Dallas…I’m calling my congress person…

that’s where I was going but I needed to meet Havi and Autumn first…

ahhhh Amsterdam Bar…I love it…

Havi and Autumn were happy to see me…

these guys were doing some pretty serious street performing…

We went to Kamadeva and Psyche at the Van Ditthavong Gallery and Studio 832…We met Van who owns the gallery and is a reall nice guy besides…

I had some favorites…

like this one by Tania Kaufmann

Kristin Bazan

Josh McGibbons

Brian Gibb (from Art Prostitut/Public Trust)

Nancy Brown

C. Kirk Smith

We continued the night at the Double Wide (I love that bar)…where the Lone Star and Pearl is not only a beer it’s an institution…

we were all pretty much blind by the time we left…

someone is sending you a very clear message…

they had party favors for some reason…

some were really intense like this one…

we didn’t ask silly questions…

the hurricanes here are actually tang and vodka I think…

Havi and Autumn have very strong opinions about fruit in their beer///

I think it’s a law in Texas that all bars have to have Big Buck Hunter and Golden Tee…

Off to Denton…

Trouble on the bridge…

Never did figure out what happened, but two cops stepped out from behind the fire truck and almost got run over…

Whiskey folk was playing at Andy’s…

and it was Hugo’s birthday…and Rachel said Hi…

Sean from Villains! and Jay from D.U.N…

the crowd had fun…

and these guys were really good…

sunday morning after church it was time for Migas with Sean and his lady Alana.

It was a beutiful day for some day drinking…

in Texas we can fly our flag at the same level as the american flag…but most of the time we don’t bother flying the american flag at all…

we also keep our beer in dirty coolers…

I want one of these above my toilet…

Sean got some Ink…Smilin Ricks Rocks…

a day in the life: first of many

Published by admin under gadabout

I’ve decided to start doing a periodic photoblog…here’s the first attempt…though it was a pretty boring day yesterday…I suppose that’s the risk you run though…

I live in a pretty rural suburb as suburbs go…

plastic bags are all over the place these days…think about that next time someone tries to bag your pack of gum…

yes Lewisville has a rodeo arena of it’s very own…in fact I think it has a few…this one seems to be open only on Labor Day…

I wonder if this is a sign for the general public or just for the people who participate in the rodeo…

went to the bike shop to get a new tube…yeah I could have gone to wal-mart but I like to support local business…

I had to go here because this Lowe’s and the Home Depot across the street choked out all of my local hardware stores and I needed a 19mm socket…

I made a new friend…

homemade bread it the greatest…

mmmm…veggies…

back to work…

I tried to pay my taxes but it didn’t go so well…

did some drawing…

changed my bike tube…

found this on the way to work a few days ago…someone had dumped it along with a bunch of other stuff…about a half mile from the dump…some people

minus 3 legs…

equals new toolbox…

my studio…

did some light reading…

to gain some inspiration…

I’m addicted to books…Fast Food Nation changed my life…

I found that even in HD, Ultra Violet with Milla Jovovich is not worth watching…against all odds the effects look even worse at high resolutions…
