Solid State Logic’s “Disarray” and GAMH headline gig!

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

Solid State Logic (SSL), a strong up-and-coming post-nu-metal (or however you wanna label ‘em) SFBay Area-based band, which I have written about before (in the context of Born Naked) has their debut album, Disarray, available on CDBaby. I like it, and so does at least one of my sons :) . It’s great to have met the drummer, Jay Michaelis, and to have seen them live.

I was looking at upcoming club listings and note that SSL are going to headline the Great American Music Hall (GAMH) on Friday 14-Jul-2006. I’m bummed that I have a conflict and can’t go — however maybe my boys will be able to catch it. Turns out one of them is taking bass lessons from the same instructor as SSL’s bass player — small world!

Eric’s 3-part suite: Manju

Thursday, August 4th, 2005

One of my brothers, Eric, is formally trained as a composer. He wrote, produced, performed, and recorded this 3-part suite, called “Manju”, in the 1990’s. It was originally intended as the “sound track” to a solo dance piece, but I find it stands well on its own as a listening experience. Manju is available here…
