Richard Cheese - Freak on a Leash

I needed a laugh at the end of the day today so I fired up the ipod, hit shuffle and this was the first song that came up!  Funny stuff, really!

House Blend Cafe on Flickr.
It’s been a year since I had this idea.  Nothing has materialized from it yet, but this is a venture I would be willing to look into some day.Via Flickr: Where great music meets great coffee! How cool of an idea would that be for a cafe?  Some chill house music in the background and a nice cup of coffee or some light breakfast fare.  A fun place to hang with friends for breakfast, lunch or in the evening.  Live DJ Friday & Saturday evening and Saturday & Sunday mornings.  All “House Blend” DJ’s music available on sale at the cafe with 100% of CD profits to DJ’s.  This is a concept that could work here in Montreal as long as you have a good location.

Tuba Valves
Sometimes you capture something great when you are just practicing.  This was just a test shot with my camera, but it is quickly becoming one of my favorites. It’s like I always say, I’d rather be lucky than good!

Time for the Blues.
After watching Treme this weekend I had some late night inspiration to take this photo.  I was actually born in New Orleans, but my family moved from there when I was very young so I don’t have any recollection of the city at all.  Interestingly enough I am also a musician.  I started playing saxophone at the age of 7.  I learned the tuba at 16 and went on to study music education for a couple of years at college.  Sadly I never finished my education.  Still I have had the opportunity to perform for and perform alongside some great musicians.  Music is and always will be a part of my life!

I have recently reconnected with an old roommate of mine.  This is his band Think Tank from Mission Viejo, CA.  The song is called Arcadia.

Don Ellis - Turkish Bath (Single)

This song “Turkish Bath” recorded in 1967 by Don Ellis is a song that is way ahead of it’s time.  In fact the whole album is way ahead of it’s time.  I suggest taking a listen.  This is a shortened version of the original (10:32) without all of the solos or the ending.  A great album for sure.  Check out more music by Don Ellis at DonEllisMusic.com
