For a couple weeks now at least, my iPhone has been reporting “Zero KB” free space. At first I thought I’d just filled the sucker up, but then after removing a few unused apps, some old Strong Bad Email podcasts, and a few albums, and still seeing “Zero KB”, I realized something was amiss. For [...]

Got bass done on Without You last night, after much frustration with Pro Tools. To start out, I went to grab the bass track from my demo session, as I’ve been doing, to import it into the new session as a guide to play along with so I would know how I wanted the part [...]
Random million dollar thought
December 16, 2008
So, the earth is warming, ocean levels will rise, and all that, right? Here’s a couple of solutions I just came up with:
1. Figure out a way to beam excess water into space
Step 1: Vaporize Water (taking care not to vaporize fish, etc.)
Step 2: ????
Step 3: Profit! Save the world!
Maybe that space elevator would be [...]
More progress and Twitter
December 9, 2008
As of today, the 10 drum tracks I’ve got recorded so far are all comped and the songs are ready for more tracking. Still waiting on one more drummer to track the last 2 songs, though. But at least I can start on the bass guitar parts in earnest now, since the drum parts under [...]
iPhone Battery/Case? 2 rocks, one stone?
November 17, 2008
Was Incase reading my mind, or perhaps my blog? I just caught this in my iGoogle Engadget feed: http://goincase.com/products/detail/EC20003/5
All four corners protected? Check.
Extends battery life more than double? Check.
Isn’t completely fugly? Check.
Lets you charge and sync via standard mini-USB port? Check.
Next Friday, I’ma be all over this, barring any terrible reviews or completely ridiculous pricing. [...]
What the ground did to my iPhone
November 13, 2008
Or, more precisely, what its case didn’t prevent the ground from doing to my phone:
It didn’t get destroyed or anything, and is still perfectly functional, but it’s now got some more personality. So maybe the case did protect it a little. Still looking for a good leather or neoprene replacement that covers all 4 corners [...]
Some more drums comped and another bass track
November 12, 2008
Over the last few days, I’ve been putting together some more of the final drum comps so I can get to work on the bass guitar, and then the rest of the instruments for those songs. Since we kept 3 or 4 full runs through each song, I had a lot of options, which is [...]
Worthless iPhone case!
October 28, 2008
So this morning is cold and rainy. I was running in from my car, and out from my hoodie pocket tumbles… yep, my iPhone.
Now, when I got my phone back in July, I made sure to pick up a good case for it, since I’m prone to dropping my phones. I had an Incase case [...]
iTunes password required on accessing App Store?
October 23, 2008
This has been happening the last few days or week maybe that I’ve noticed. When I open the App Store on my phone, I immediately get prompted for my iTunes password. I used to only have to enter it when I wanted to download a new app or update. Does that happen for everyone now?

Thoughts on recording guitar
October 21, 2008
So, I’ve been trying to figure out how I’m gonna do the guitars for this here thing. Ideally, I’d record a mic’d up amp for all the guitars. Unfortunately, that also means having space for an amp and a mic stand to be set up for an extended period of time for consistent sounds between [...]
