NAMM was so much bigger than I ever imagined. Convention centers in the New England area have nothing on the size of the Anehiem convention center. that place is rediculous! 3 days in a row, and I don't think I saw everything. I saw the important stuff like PRS, Martin, Mesa, Roland, various custom guitars and an insane amount of other stuff. ( Read more... )

The winter break ends today. Classes start tomorrow.

I've been skateboarding since I got my first board at age 3. A small plastic, red, banana board. I moved on to a bright orange and black Nash Nighmare old school setup. Then in middle school discovered the new school of professional setups and got my first switchstance. A Shuvit, red stain wood deck with B-52 trucks. Since then I've looked ( Read more... )

First, a thought- When you buy a shirt with your college name on it, it's free advertising for them. Why should we pay them to advertise for the college when we give them too much money as it is. You might be thinking, well I'm proud of the college I go to! and that's cool i guess, but think about what I said. It's free advertising with profit ( Read more... )

I saw the band Extreme last Sunday for free outside government center. That was amazing not only because Extreme is a kick ass late 80's early 90's rock band, but also the fact it was their first performance together as the full band in over 10 years!! So it was definitly one of the more memorable Boston moments in music ( Read more... )

classes are going ok. concerts are slow this month. I get to go to the John Mayer clinic/concert Friday! that's pretty cool cause it's free for Berklee students.

Not picking favorites, but just thought I'd mention how amazing Katelyn is, cause she's talked about me in her journal a bunch of ( Read more... )
