High Water & Scars
I took a few hours tonight to catch some live music downtown. I rode my bike down alone and checked things out. After listening to Scars on 45 at the Des Moines Art Festival I headed over to Nightfall on the River to try and catch The Nadas. I had to leave before The Nadas started but I did manage to get a photo of how high the water is. Check out this photo and the stairs. Normally you can walk down the stairs and around the back of the stage. Right now you can’t get down the stairs at all. The river is about 4 feet from flooding the lawn. Here is a photo from Scares on 45....

As I continue to finish up my deck I eventually want a decent sound system out there. I recently ordered a set of speakers that I am excited to get installed. This coming weekend the speakers should make their way to me from Kansas City via my future brother in-law. He has started his own Low-Volt Wiring, Home Theater, TV Hangs, Control Systems and Computer Repair small business called Long Wire. He is using the weekend to make a business trip up to Des Moines to do the install. I ended up ordering a set of KEF VENTURA 6 6.5″ All-Weather Outdoor Speaker. I have read nothing but...

Read MoreBeastie Boys – Make Some Noise Video
The video for the first track Make Some Noise from the upcoming release of HOT SAUCE COMMITTEE PART TWO is making it’s way around the web. The only place I could get it to play was from VH1. I remember when VH1 was the alternative to MTV and only played Kenny G crap. I digress…. Anyway, enjoy. The video is parts of the 30 minute short movie to come out in May with the full record release. I dare you to name every big time actor that is in this video. I’d love to know the story about how they landed all of them for the video. And with that….. Make some noise if...

If there is one group that I have never stopped listening to it certainly is The Beastie Boys. I still remember the first time I saw them. It was at a mall in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I was going to a Run DMC concert that also had Whodini, The Fat Boys and some group that called themselves The Beastie Boys on the bill. We were at the Mall follwing Run around as he picked up stuff at the Mall. There were these white kids causing all kinds of trouble in the mall. I asked someone who they were. He guy replied, The Beasti Boys. I never heard of them. Later that night we went to the show as The...
