Zed, music, live, fun….
I’m in a band. We’re called Zed. Here’s a video of us playing at the Brit in Cupertino, CA. I’m on drums. Fun was had. Check out the band website at zedisded.com or find us on Facebook at zedisded.com/facebook.

The Gallows Curse Industry Folk at SXSW 2009
My boss recently went to check out SXSW 2009 in Austin, TX on business. He got to see so many great bands like The Bronx, The Riverboat Gamblers, Metallica, and more. He got this great clip of the vocalist from The Gallows bitching out people at Emo’s in Austin for being too mellow. I love The Gallows a lot and this clip is classic. He forgot that he’s not playing a real show with hardcore kids in attendance so couldn’t quite put 2 and 2 together to figure out it’s all media, music industry peeps, etc….pissed him off, he let them know….I love it.
“Make My Logo Bigger” Cream
If you have ever been a designer, trained, professional, schooled, know-what-you-are-doing, designer…you’ve probably experienced the joy of difficult clients that not only think they are designers too, (and if so why the fuck did they hire you in the first place???), where your customer basically disembowels everything you’ve just done that was intended to make them look good. A good friend of mine (@timeriedesigns on Twitter) sent me this video. Good stuff….finally someone poking fun at the shit we deal with as creative types in the corporate environment. Enjoy.
A Sample Of My Evening Routine
My 6 year old and I have a nightly routine before bed of making a couple ridiculous videos. This is the 80,000th one we’ve made this month. This routine goes on for about 30mins every night. Liam is currently the head of the household. I just live here and pay the bills. He’s a goofball.
The Colour Revolt
Found a video of a really great band I met in Philly at the Download Festival. I took photos of them at a meet and greet with music fans as well as some live shots. Here’s a couple pics I took plus the video. I HIGHLY recommend this band. They have a really great sound and use lots of vintage gear. I talked for a long time with the bass player and he was super cool and mellow. It’s always refreshing to meet bands that are makin’ it and are still humble and cool. Enjoy…
Jon Stewart is STILL My Hero
His sarcasm and cynicism speaks to my heart in magical ways.

I Love Zombies
I can’t hide it. It’s who I am. Since I was a kid I’ve been fascinated with the concept of the undead. When I saw my first George Romero flick – Dawn of the Dead, the original – my life was changed. I saw Night of the Living Dead, Day of The Dead, Land of the Dead, and recently Diary of The Dead. There were a couple other movies that I saw that approached the zombie concept but I didn’t think any of them were as creepy as Romero’s style. Anyway, a friend of mine recently turned me onto this claymation for zombie lovers….complete with pieces of the soundtrack from David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. Enjoy.
Another Guest Post on ZDNet
“It’s safe to say that most of us in the age range of 30+ still have an attachment to these analog artifacts. However, it’s not just an emotional attachment. When it comes to memories and things that matter to us, we know that physical tangibility is something we can trust, something that holds it’s own unique value, reminding us that our lives have been actual, real and organic.”
