Posted in Houston, Really Makes Me Happy, Good Causes on June 5th, 2007 No Comments »
Woo hoo!
Got this from Nancy Greig regarding the recent concern over matching funds for the park.
I finally spoke “face to face” with Lara Wendler, Sen. Whitmire’s executive director.
She emphatically assured me that the allocation of $3.75 million for the W. 11th Street Park was 1) intended to pay for the PURCHASE (not improvements) of the […]

Nancy Greig, the wonderful woman in charge of saving 11th Street Park, recently gave me a t-shirt for the park efforts (I still owe you $20, Nancy!) to wear at a gig I had with my band a few weeks back. I wore it. I guess it worked.

In the past, I have used a wishlist at Amazon.com to aide friends and family members in finding gifts for me for Christmas. The truth is that, while I love my family and they are more than generous, sometimes they make odd choices when it comes to presents mainly because I’m probably not the easiest […]
Review: Ashdown MAG C210T-300 Combo & MAG 210T Deep Cabinet

I mentioned it here recently that I was purchasing a new bass amp. I like my current Behringer 3000BXT, but I wanted something a little more portable and, if the tone was an improvement, great!
