this evening i borrowed my roommate's bike to go to Safeway. i failed to find the carob i was seeking for cookies.. James will be disappointed when he comes home.
i haven't operated a bike in a very long time. i'd say about 6 years, at least, sin ce i owned a bike and used it regularly. it was a beautiful night for a ride, and i must admit i miss biking.

i was listening to the new Portishead album Third i rode, and it's eerie gloomy nature fit well with my ride. i'm not much of a fan of Portishead's earlier work, but i'm finding myself falling in love with this newer one.

last night Aaron and myself (as Nail Salon) played a show at Brickyard with some friends of ours (Bear's Lair, Balacade).
now we're going on a 'tour' of sorts, or perhaps a road trip with some shows booked.
Nail Salon has a rad CD to sell (designed by good friend Michael Noppers!), if you'd like. it's $5, and availible soon at Ditch or through the Old Life Records website. or via Aaron & myself.





perhaps this blog will turn into a music/travel blog for the time we are gone. i will try to update sometimes... perhaps videos.. photos... who knows.

now, time to pack. we head out tomorrow.
