These two tracks were recorded in my garage in Richmond CA late Spring 2021. They were posted at Bandcamp pretty much immediately. Soon after this I quit playing drums until October of 2022.

Zenzizenzo

A photo of Zenzizenzo playing at Saint Charles Tavern Tucson, 11/7/26.

 

This guy with a polaroid camera took this photo. It's blurry but also kind of cool, texturally. Zenzizenzo was happy to play a benefit for one of The Brown Notes bass players, John, who is recovering from an injury to his legs. He's making progress, which is great. John and I shouted some lyrics to a Dead Kennedys song together. Zenzizenzo were happy with our performance at Saint Charles Tavern, hopefully some cats dug it.

As recalled this was not spontaneous in the sense that we planned to perform this piece. Maybe one rehearsal for it at Joe Noble's pad in North Berkeley? I haven't spoken to any of these guys for many years and it seems unlikely that any conversations will happen any time soon but that being said this footage brings back memories of fun times. 

Zenzizenzo plays this Saturday!

 

We will play a benefit show for one of the Brown Notes bassists. He was injured and needs money for medical bills.

A shot of ebolabuddha playing at a small theater on 6th St. in San Francisco, 2016. Hard to believe it's been ten years since! ebolabuddha started on a lark but ended up doing a lot of interesting shows. It was cool for me as a person older than the other guys in the band as I got their younger perspectives and was shown certain parts of the Metal scene in the Bay that would not have been otherwise available to me. The peak moment of that particular experience for me was when we played on KFJC, the best radio station in the world. My wife and I were talking recently about how in a sane world, this part of the year would actually be acknowledged as the ending of the year. It's been a fun "year" for me, these last four seasons in Tucson. Two albums have been recorded and I'll guess we'll see if they ever get properly released. Plenty of shows have been played too as recounted in this blog. Who knows what the future holds, but optimism will remain. Hey, it can't get as lame as it did in the early years of this weird decade. At least that's my hope! Zenzizenzo shows coming soon! 

Benson Highway Band-Slow Body Brewery Tucson, 10/24/26

 

We had a good turnout but playing last means that you're kind of doing clean up and bidding patrons goodbye. Still, cool that some good money was raised by the anti-data center organization. Hopefully it will be put to good use. The entities that want to build data centers are arrogant in that they seem to believe that they can just have tax payers foot the bill for their potentially hugely profitable ventures. There needs to be some pushback against the elitism that they flaunt. That's my take anyway.
