Recntly I did a shoot with this group called FAME....this is one of the images we did. This still has some editing to be done. I just couldnt wait any longer to post it though. Ok.... Off to work now! 

In love with you

So I was going to spend a lot of money on a new Camera... but after some thought I have a better idea! The best ideas seem to happen when you are really really cheap and need to do things super duper low budget and with that DIY attitude. Obviously you wont hear my idea today.... but you will see it soon.

Inspiration:

These guys arent girls!

john Mayer

Not going to lie on this one... John Mayer is DOPE. I just got his album 'Battle Studies'.

I have been to a few of his shows...i think 3? Each one was amazing and different. So turn off the lights and get stoned to this album. 

funny

Thats really cool because

Common Feat. Cee-Lo - Make My Day from Wealthy Pictures on Vimeo.

The Men Who Stare at Goats

This movie looks really good. Are you up to take a trip to the Long Beach Art theatre and see this?

BOOKS!

FESTIVITIES!

One of the bands performing is Tiger Tank Euphoria and they are pretty awesome. I posted a live video of them below. My Band Feed The Feeble will also be performing...I am pretty sure I get a drum solo...So if anything, come for that! haha I love drum solos.

NEW DANCE

Chris Walker :)

So here is a short me and Andy made a few days ago while out on a location scouting trip in the Mojave Desert.
We were in a rush so we didnt get to spend too much time playing around, but here is what we did do!

Jodi Bieber

This South African Has some really amazing images in her portfolio.

TIME TO PARTY!

The Vespertines- Lepers&Leopards

I play drums. We Have an official music video in the process... actually more than one. So K.I.T.

Bjork-Unison

Today I will be in the Desert

Today Im going out to El Mirage Dry Lake and Rainbow Basin to location scout for my short film. Weather is looking nice tomorrow, well besides the low of 36F but we shall survive.

Heres a video that is totally unrelated. UNLESS you are including how hard we are going to party tonight.

Woah

Mnemosyne

Heath Ledger&Modest Mouse

Idk if you know, but I think Heath Ledger is a genius in some of the things he did. The Direction of this video is just crazy! It made an impact on me, hopefully you take it all in. Enjoy!

mind trip

Think about this..... Did you know some people interpret EVERYTHING backwards? For example: Lucy Told Ross "Your shirt doesn't look good on you" But Ross Heard "Your shirt looks so good on you!"
Because while in the womb a Macrolite bug got into his brain and affected the part that connects relationships and how to connect certain dots. No Cure.



Another thing.... There are some AMAZING bands out there. And a lot of them are nowhere right now. Its sooo crazzy. I need all of YOU! to go listen to some new music. Go search somewhere, go! Get over to your local record store, go to the band you typed in your phone that one night cause you 'just haddd to remember it'. So make your contribution to making a musicians dream come that much closer. ILY

Heres some stuff going on here in Long Beach, and a few of my top bands you may not know of.

Winter

I like to get new clothes. I love to get new clothes for cheap. Winter is here and it is time for some long overdue manly shopping on my part.

Long Beach

Ohhhhh I love long Beach, and I love cold war kids AND I love drumming. So when I heard The Cold War Kids Drummer from Long Beach decided to make a film I can say I was more than excited(especially since I am doing the same exact thing).

Where the Wild things Are

Here is a interview done on the art involved in the upcoming film "Where The Wild things are" I am so excited for this. I get to be a kid again for a couple hours. Not that I ever grew up in some parts of my mind...ANYWAYS, check it out! It is really interesting. And of course some music from the soundtrack as well is below.

STRESS!!!!

Band Of skulls...I heard about them about a month ago now when I Bought the new Album "Baby Darling Doll face Honey" from

Fingerprints record store in Long Beach, CA. ANYWAYS they are SO AMAZING! I saw them live at Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa the

same day I bought the Album. AMMMMAAAAZZZING. Well chick this video out.

'I know What I am'

Weather is Changing

Ok...So remember what i told you about the short stop motion film/movie im doing? Well It is SO AMAZING!!! As I am writing this magical story that is inspired so much by my childhood and my daydreams and lack of focus on what is around me....I got this feeling like 'Chica Chica YEaaaa This is THE SHIIIIIIT'. Ya know? I am aiming to have it done by Jan. 1st since that is when my book is due....I may have to extend that deadline as much as I hate to, I also dont want to rush it. I have to finish writing the story, location scout, Cast, and build shit and A LOT of other very important things....I need an assistant. Yup. I need a smart one too.

Either way....Here is Tegan And Sara-Back in Your Head

dead

Hello

The Dead Weather is so amazing! I love everything these

people do.

I am currently writing a short story and despite it being short....I have writers block. I think this is because I have never experience what I am trying to tell in the story. So recently I have been trying to accomplish it which is stupid because it is supposed to take time. But I figure if I get the general idea it should be fine. You will see later! But I will give you a short bio on it of what I have so far.

I am going to make a 3.5minute stop motion short story. It is going to have some elements of a fairy tale, a love story, a story of heartbreak and lots of cool trippy effects and awesome emotion. All in under four minutes.

This Friday my band The Vespertines and On Blast are having a show. Should be pretty amazing.

Heres something for your ears,eyes and minds.

West Virginia state flower:

The Rhododendron

The rhododendrons growing in Washington, or among the redwoods of California, or clothing the slopes of the Alleghenies with impenetrable thickets and in early summer glorifying them with bloom, are worth going far to see.

Just thought I would share that with you. In other news:

Watch this chick play the saw.

dream

Last night I had the wildest dream...It was about the Iphone? haha I know. I dont think I have ever had a dream about an electronic device. But this one was AWESOME! I got the phone in the mail...but no thats not it! It came with a yellow kayak, a giant poster of Sophie Marceau and a marching band. It was pretty damn awesome. Heres an Iphone 3G s vid. Not so much about the phone than it is about the girl. But that is OK :)

this week

Thursday there is a good show.

But my band might be playing as well at another venue that same day.... so keep an open mind :)

Ohh

So I am sending out these Email promotions to help me get some new clients. If anyone wants to model...I can always use more faces. Let me know!

What do you think of these? I am also going to print out some postcards to put in my dad's tanning salon and a few of my friends that own shops will put up a stack somewhere in there.

Santana

Santana is the most amazing musician. He has the best band. Check this vid of him from woodstock.

Knew it.
