sqrt update

I burned myself a couple of times destroying $4 made in china toys with solder. It was fun. Nothing worth posting audio wise or picture wise, but it sounded funny before I burnt the IC up. I hocked a couple of the drums I had purchased, and when I get a chance I will post those up, cause I rigged them on some funny sqrt stands. It makes me want to get into making really nice drums. I went to Wichita (home of BTK and a bunch of old fucking warehouses) for a biz trip too. Ended up here one night, don't fuckin ask. I didn't get in a fight though, and all parties involved were lucky, mainly me cause I was mad outnumbered.

I also got randomly harrassed by the fuzz. I was sitting in a bar with 4 people I worked with (they were playing disco mashups of top 40 shit, and had the clientele of a redneck pool hall). I was fixed up and lookin sharp, with a white boy polo on, and two cops came right up to me and asked me if just came in the bar. I told them that I was on my third beer, and they walked off. It freaked the people out I was working with, now I am the sketchy kid that the fuzz harasses.


and I wrote a little electronic type of tune.

ICT Fest in Wichita


I got some boys in Lawrence that hail from Wichita and they like to play music. Being from Wichita, they know the hip events going down in South Central (kansas). They were playing in this three day music festival called ICT Fest. I went down for the last day of the event, and it rocked. I saw some really good bands and a couple of amazing drummers, (Muscle Worship, Falcon Crest, Total Fucking Blood, STNNNG, just to name a few. This is billed as an Indy Rock type of festival, but there was some good metal, and some Pantera metal too. $2 Bud draft, neck hurts from headbanging, face is numb still, mad PBR and Jim Beam in the parking lot, met tons of cool people (believe it or not, there are mad cool people in Kansas) and let me say this again, saw some killer drummers. Wichita is an alright town too, hit some bars, hit some parties, hit some Wichita Slam Dance (not near as hard core as that that Winston Slam Dance, but still fun).
