What do you think of the new site design? I was home sick from work and decided to do something with my down time. Enjoy.

My dear friend and fellow musician, John, feeling inspired by Joe Biden and his fantastic smile, launched a site, joebidensteeth.com. Some friends also put together a promotional video using a bit of music I wrote. If you think Joe Biden's teeth can make a difference in this election, then you absolute have to see this video.

In other news, another friend and fellow musician, Joe, has moved to the greater Chicago area. He performed with me many times when I was living in Michigan, and hopefully he will again. I might actually get out and play a show sometime soon. Fingers crossed.

I am extremely saddened today. I just learned my friend and fellow artist, Ben Schaafsma, passed away this Saturday. We attended high school together and had many mutual friends. Ben was also a fellow Chicago immigrant and a key player in the DAAC, where I performed a few times over the years.

The world has lost another wonderful soul, but the world is now better for his being in it.

I'm working on a few new arrangements for live performance, J'avais Envie being one of them. Now I just need to recruit some players. I still have my good friend John on drums, but I need bass, piano and hopefully cello. Anyone care to join in?

The new Nine Inch Nails, The Slip, is available for free download via the site. I have to give Mr. Reznor ome serious kudos, even if this is a marketing stunt. If you haven't heard it, check it out. As usual, most of the tracks are available for remix too.

In other news, I recently signed up on BroadJam and Kompoz, hoping to extend my 'reach' a little. Fingers crossed.
