So we hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, ours was wonderful. Bella enjoyed her first thanksgiving with a few bottles o’ milk and a long nap. Of course she loves to sleep when we are around other people. You have to catch her at 5:30 am if you want to see her partying. It’s pretty fun to wake up early!
I feel like this year was the best Thanksgiving ever, my parents are moved back, we are home owners now and of course we’ve got beautiful Bella. I’ve been wanting to thank Phia for a while now because she really has been amazing through the pregnancy and as a mother. She’s taken care of Bella better then I could have ever wished for and she still manages to take great care of me too. She’s an amazing wife, mother and my best friend to boot. So as a small thank you for all the things she does for me and Bella, I gave her a pair of diamond earrings. View Full Article »
First of all this is Bella doing her best impression of Rodney Dangerfield… she “get’s no respect”! What can I say the kid has a good sense of humor! Anyway, speaking of funny, Bella decided today that she thought it would be super funny if while we’re changing her diapers, she would grab a hold of her own hair and pull it as hard as she can until she screams bloody murder. That of course is the opportune moment to do it because the person changing the diaper has both hands full.
She did it to Phia and I on separate occasions this morning. Pretty awesome. You’d think a baby would have weak little hands. Nope. It took everything I had to release her mighty grip from her hair, of course all the while she’s screaming. I guess Phia’s mom mentioned the other day (before she learned this new move) that Phia did this exact same move when she was a baby. So yeah she’s mini-Phia right down to the bad habits!
Here are some new photos, Bella is modeling a new outfit courtesy of Mic. Thanks Mic! It looks great!

Oh it’s okay I only missed Pearl Jam with Chris Cornell on Hunger Strike. At least that’s all I missed… right? This is all? Hey why are you all being so quiet? What aren’t you telling me?? View Full Article »
Okay so not too long ago I went to see Chris Cornell at the House of Blues with Phi Bear.. and he broke into Hunger Strike. I’ll admit that there was a small part of me that was wondering if perhaps Ed might come out and throw and assist. Okay I will say there was a big part of me that desperately wished for it. But he didn’t and Chris sounded terrific regardless.
On Oct 1st, I saw Pearl Jam in LA, I had great great seats, and the show was AMAZING. So why am I bitter? Well probably because as good as that show was, something happened on the next LA show to one up me! During the encore, Chris Cornell came out to provide his amazing vocals on … yes you guessed it Hunger Strike. A good old fashioned Temple of the Dog reunion. Son of a bi….. View Full Article »
I’ve been a long time fan of Pearl Jam’s since I was a kid. I’ve seen the band… boy I lose track, between 10-15 times, and I can say this show was one of the best I’ve ever seen. The Band was really feeling it and the crowd was giving back what they were putting out . Really phenomenal. Believe me I’ve been to a few shows where the crowd was less than enthusiastic and the band really suffers because of it. View Full Article »
Some of you know that I am housing my father’s almighty Ford F-150 Lightning in my garage. Or as I like to refer to it, my inheritance. I actually feel that it’s really fair to call it co-ownership since what’s my dad’s is mine and .. how does the rest of that saying go? Well anyway it’s in my garage and I get to drive it so it feels like mine! If you don’t know, The Ford SVT Lightning is a sports/performance version of the F-150 Pickup truck designed by Fords tuner division (SVT). View Full Article »
This is just a head’s up to the non-psycho Pearl Jam fan’s out there. Pearl Jam’s next album, Backspacer is set to be released on 9/20/09 in case you’re interested. They are also touring to support the album, but most of the local shows have gone on sale already. If you can, I suggest you do go. They put on a hell of a show and they play a nice mix of songs that is sure to please even the casual fans.
I’m really looking forward to seeing them at Gibson Amphitheater, that’s a hell of a venue!
Here’s the single “The Fixer” that’s getting some radio play, check it out, you’ll probably enjoy it!
Okay those words might be a little strong, but not by much. As most of you know Mean Gene is my guitar mentor and good friend. But did you also know he’s a local San Diego Rock Icon?! View Full Article »
