Holograms: Then Now How Now What Wow

When I was a kid I thought holograms were… No, that’s a lie, isn’t it? I’ve always thought holograms were the absolute shit. I used to dream about holographic video games and holographic learning machines and holographic video games and, well, holographic video games. Who hasn’t? Probably girls, non-nerds and old folks. But then again, [...]

Kentucky Is My Friend & T. Graham Brown Is A Piyamp

As a drummer I have played with and opened for plenty of “names” and met countless more assorted persons of the ‘famous’ persuasion; but Kentucky frigging rocks. If that first sentence didn’t really make sense then you will probably find the rest of this blog rather senseless; but the truth is, I don’t feel very [...]

Do Ya Thing or DoYaThing While I Do Mine

“You ain’t fresh squeezed juice … you that Tang.” Damn. That stings. I’m uncertain to whom this was directed; but holy fuck balls! What an awesome way to casually toss an acidic diss to the playa haters giving our dude, André 3000 grief! Fucking brilliant, folks. So let’s talk about this joint for a bit, [...]

John Mayer & Shadow Days & Thanks For Making It Okay

John Mayer is putting out a new album. This album is called “Born and Raised.” He’s been streaming his lead off single called “Shadow Days” and it sounds like the Brother has his proverbial hat in hand and a possible downcast hopefulness that erebody still luhs him. The tune has a real “country” feel and [...]

The Making Of Tributaries Documentary

It’s done. I can’t believe it’s done; but it’s done. I suppose, before I say really any more than that, I should probably just let you watch it… But I’m going to talk just a little more because I don’t know what will happen to the “preview panel” of my blog if I put a [...]

Honeymoon Redux Or Phase Two In Which Jas Gets His Rest

I’m back, Baby! Just got back, in fact from “Honeymoon Part Two: The Chilling” starring Ralph Macchio as Jas Patrick and Lil’ Kim as Gangsta Vicki. Yeah, I know… Technically speaking, it wasn’t a honeymoon; but we called it that for lack of giving a fuck. But back to it, eh? Yes, a second honeymoon. [...]

Jamming With My Idols

How many of us are lucky enough to meet our idols, our childhood idols to be specific, let alone know them all our lives and/or get to really communicate with them on their level as an equal? Not many. Not many of us is the answer. I suppose it comes down to who we idolize, [...]

Pumpkin Ale: My Favorite Seasonal Brew And An End To The Damned Heat

As I straight, mad chill whilst listening to my nearly-completely-mixed new EP (coming soon), I find myself enjoying a real treat that I had only recently discovered: Pumpkin Ale. It’s a long story and I shall tell the whole damn thing as I am generally wont to do; but first, let me give a bit [...]

Why, Jas, Why?!! (Why I Blog) Or… “A Brief Overview On The Introduction To Blogging And The People Who Love The Need To Know Fifteen Things About Sex”

As you can tell by the title of this, I enjoy the absurd. Why wouldn’t I? When you really start to think about it, life is pretty frigging absurd–especially how serious it all is, am I right? Well, I intend this to be a bit of an overview or an introduction to my blog; though, [...]
