    Squatting government buildings

    In 2018 I cracked a squat in the center of the French Quarter. No crowbars, no drilling locks, no broken windows. Clean. Efficient. It's even a government building. All I had to do was get elected mayor. Shit, they've flown me first class all over the world and never even had to pay a dime or...

    A Big Gift For Everybody, also listen to my band's cd.

    So, my friend Justin posted these really excellent old-time fiddle recordings for everybody to take. Many of these are archaic recordings from the 20's, field recordings of the oldest fiddlers (some of whose grandfathers taught them fought in the Civil War.) Plus, I included a few Cajun...

    For the few fiddlers feeling their way around here

    Fenagle yourself an incredibow. One thing I've learned about traveling with a fiddle is you go through bows really quick. Since they can range from $30 to thousands of dollars (and price really makes a difference) it makes sense to make 'em last if you can. I personally HATE flying signs, so I...

    Duluth Trading Company Firehose Pants

    So I'm in New Orleans, hanging out and gearing up for the summer, when I run into a kid who is ranting about these new pants of his. They're not Carhartt, not Filsen's, not Walls. They're Duluth Trading Company and they're made of fire hose cloth. Fucking crazy. So he's telling me about them...

    We need more appalachian old-time musicians!

    There's a lot of kids out there who play jug band songs on ukulele, and there's plenty of kids who strum banjos and pull accordions. And that's great. But, where are all the clawhammer banjo players and old-time fiddlers out there? That's what I play and I have a hard time finding many who can...

    My Little Music Project

    Here's a little shameless self-promotion: These are my itinerant recordings. I plan on re-recording them with more interesting parts and instruments, once I can find someone in Richmond who likes to record for free. Most of this stuff I recorded late at night on random friend's computers when I...

    NEED WITNESSES: Arrested at Alley Katz on Best Friends Day

    Hello, On August 22nd, I was arrested at Alley Katz on Best Friends Day, at the Strike Anywhere show, on a charge of "conspiring to incite riot." I can't talk about what happened, but I desperately need witnesses who can testify in defense of me. My court date is October 15th in Richmond, VA. I...

    Some horrible infestation

    So I'm not sure whether it's lice, bedbugs, or something worse, but whatever it is, I got it bad. There are an assortment of welts and red bite dots on my skin. One welt even has a scab on it. Most of this is occuring around my waist, but I've been itching other places too. At night, I'll feel...
