My great grandmother’s maiden name was Anna Carlson and my great great grandmother’s maiden name was Sophie Bergeson. She married a man named Bennett Carl Carlson. This was a reunion of some of the grandchildren, [...]
PatioPalooza 2010
Ever since Petra and I moved into our wonderful apartment on Lake Michigan, I wanted to have a party on the patio there. My wealth of talented friends compelled me to share some of my good fortune with others. The plan was simple; an afternoon of drinking, food, fantastic music, dancing, laughs and great conversation [...]
Logan Square Block Party
Our friend Dawn (who Petra met years ago in London) now lives in Logan Square here in Chicago. She invited us to her neighborhood’s annual block party. Complete with a pig roasting, tons of food, a live rock band and one massive indestructible Pinata. There were more children than adults and somehow this was okay. [...]
Dinner and a boat ride
Petra and I were invited to join some folks I work with for a retirement party. It was thrown by the world’s greatest boss, Carl Puccio. The night included dinner at the prestigious Sunda restaurant in downtown Chicago and then a giant old sailboat ride out into Lake Michigan to watch the fireworks. It would [...]
A Weekend With Family
Petra and I took a very quick trip to visit the family in Michigan, watch my niece in her ballet dance recital, attend my sister’s 40 birthday party, and finally to enjoy the hammock in my parents backyard. It was a bit rushed and felt much too short, but it was fun and exciting none [...]
Out Is How We Pass – Music Video
For over a year now, I’ve been working on creating a new group; KATASTROFIST. My bandmates and I wrote, recorded and mixed the debut album all on our own, without the help of any recording studio or sound engineers (except for the main vocal track. props to Rolan at I.V. Labs). To coincide with the [...]
The Personnel Promo Video
This is actually my 3rd promotional video for Seth Bradley and The Personnel. We filmed it in only a couple hours at a club called The Elbo Room here in Chicago. This is literally ridiculous POP, but it’s well produced and I’m really happy with how the final video turned out, especially considering the time [...]
Memorial Weekend 2010
For those who are reading this that are not native to the U.S.A., Memorial Weekend is supposed to be a time when Americans reflect back on the soldiers who sacrificed their lives to preserve the dream and country that this beautiful land is built upon. However, like most American holidays (or any countries holiday for [...]
Beergaritas in Kalamazoo
Our friends Roy and Marci have recently moved with their family to Kalamazoo Michigan due to Roy’s work. We came to visit them and spend the weekend relaxing, eating and drinking while the kids were away. It was ‘adult’ time. Also, word to the wise; Beergaritas are not a good idea if you have any [...]
