Deceptive business practices, Rescue Geeks on 19th, DON'T GO THERE...

Not only did they promise repairs back in Feb. that never got done but even after they finally got me my "new" Dell computer, upon opening it, I found that the serial number has been scratched off and the laptop is NOT new at all! They don't want to talk about it...imagine that. Power cord does not work. They refuse to allow me to pick up 2 hard drives I already paid for. I could go on but you get the point ! As a DJ, this has affected my business drastically. I have had to turn down shows due… Continue

Mosquito Bandito

Laura texted us that Bandito was gigging the filler tonite. So we went down and met him Schlomo King and Chuck Goodwin there. The Mosquito Bandito knocked us dead AGAIN! His new fifty seven pound rig really rocks. He's off to Fargo tomorrow. Happy Trails Skito.

Update from the Dollhouse

Okay, let's see...I finished My Little Wonder, Cotton Candy, and Circumstance and uploaded them to MM and also on MySpace. The latter two songs are part of The Visceral Show, my gothic cabaret show, which I hope to have up and running by late 2009/early 2010. Staging the show depends on how soon I can write the music, design the costumes, and get it all rehearsed with the cast. *crosses fingers* Cotton Candy was written for a trio of girls, and Circumstance as a duet.



The first song,… Continue

Danny McIntosh - No Ordinary Angel

Work continues for me on No Ordinary Angel, a CD project that I have been working on for well over a year now with Songwriter Danny McIntosh. We are getting close to wrapping this up. Danny and I have nailed all of his vocal and guitar tracks and have been using on-line collaboration through Kompoz.com, man the internet just opens SO many doors for working with amazing musicians with so much talent. It took me a while getting used to syncing tracks that were recorded on the other side of the… Continue

One week of MM

Thanks to everyone who has joined Montana Musicians. It's only been a week and there are already 175 musicians signed up. Once the word spreads, I think we will have an amazing resource for musicians to communicate.

I would specially like to thank Levi Kujala and Dustin Tucker for their brains and artistic design.

Without them this site would have never happened.



In a matter of only a couple of days.....

1. I listened to some really cool music from people all over the… Continue

A Lesson learned

A short story about a recent adventure I had buying a guitar.



About a year and a half ago I was in Missoula. I stepped into a music store and played a black Gretsch Duo Jet Electromatic. Since I'd never played one before I enjoyed getting my hands on something new. I really liked the neck and loved the tone. It seemed like a leaner Les Paul. The neck was fabulous, and I really loved the dual cutaway and bigsby bridge. Then I looked at the price tag. It was half the cost of my "pro"… Continue
