Sorry to those that might have been expecting an update, when my last one was in fucking August of 08. *Sigh*, too long. I love life, if it just wouldn't keep getting in the way of things....
Bullet point recap/update of aforementioned 'things' that matter (in no chronological order whatsoever):
- New BlipVert record finished in August of 08. Since then, working out details for a release of some kind with an amazing label (name and details to be announced at a later time). Release and tour planned for March/April of 2010.
- New Dates page.
- Great show last October with the LA based Hop Frog Collective in the Mojave Desert! Short vid of BlipVert performance here.
- New remix 'My Whole Fish is a Tree' for master Belgian electronician Deleete (otherwise known as Kozak Serge) as part of his new Catharsis LP. January CD, vinyl, digital release on Marasm/Toolbox Records. Hear this remix on the BlipVert myspace page.
- Trying to get the hell out of the Bay Area.
- Cartridge/BlipVert PAC NW concerts beginning of February, including another ridiculous evening with Reactionary!. See Dates page for info and cool as hell Reactionary flyer.
- Trying to get the hell out of Oakland.
- Upcoming concerts with Fun., a duet consisting of myself on guitar and Gene Baker on electric piano.
- In rehearsal with new live band. Most likely, the basic skeleton of this band will be sketched here in the Bay - along with possible gigs - with a full on version occurring back east when the eventual move actually does occur.
- Lotsa private guitar instruction, which is nice.
Wanted to thank everyone who has offered support, encouragement, lodging, cash, advice, legal counsel, and good vibes over the last 1.5 years. A helluva ride to say the least, it always makes a lone avant-electro-composer feel good to find a kind heart in a world that seems to be getting worse by the minute. You are not forgotten....
Further bulletins as events warrant.....
