Noise Pop starts this week … I hope to see you out at a show!!! There are five free happy hour shows. I am going to see them all, however, I know some of you aren’t willing to commit that much of your week to music. Thus you will likely pick one show to see,...Continue Reading

The band is called Yalls, but he’s a band of one?! From the other side of Rock Make, I speed walked past all the vendors to see what band was creating such an amazing collage of sounds. Upon arrival, I realized the sounds I had been enjoying were coming from one man and his digital...Continue Reading

Were you at Rock Make today? I was! There was an amazing line-up of bands… and the event has gotten bigger!!! It now includes bouncing blow up houses for the kids, a beer garden for adults and food for all. Not to mention the number amazing vendors including but not limited to my friends at...Continue Reading

I don’t know where “Boom Town” is but I wish it was somewhere near SF. This last week I was in Portland for pleasure. No agenda… but to my delight, I discovered it was Music Fest NW  and Widmer was having their Oktober Fest a month early. (Likely very unrelated) I went for the beer...Continue Reading

I know this isn’t a normal post for me!!! However… a couple of days ago I was contacted by the PR agency of America’s Got Talent. They asked… “Stefan, do you know any bands that you think would be appropriate for America’s Got Talent?” My first thought was, “HELLS YEAH!” (I hate it when SF...Continue Reading

Over the course of 14 days, I The Mighty and I visited 7.5 states (Half a state because we crossed the border of Nebraska into Iowa just to say we saw it.) played 11 shows and showered approximately 5 times. When you’re on tour you suddenly realize how much you value sleeping in a bed,...Continue Reading

   Over the course of 14 days, I got to see a lot of flat lands, deserts, and highways. Due to snow, and road closures, a lot of the scenery I had already seen on previous days. While seeing 7 states in 14 days was fun. I couldn’t help but think to myself (and...Continue Reading

In 14 days we visited 7.5 states and played 11 shows. Which as you can imagine means we spent a lot of time in the van. Our tour started in San Francisco at Bottom of The Hill, the next day we were in Portland at Branx followed by shows in Seattle, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming &...Continue Reading

While on tour with I The Mighty, we visited a lot of states I never thought I would see. Never really wanted to see… but I learned a valuable lesson: When I told my friends I was going to Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska… I got the same response from a lot of them: (Sarcastic...Continue Reading

I love getting photos of drummers… but sitting in the dark 10 feet behind the lead singer makes getting a good shot really hard!!! A couple of months ago I purchased a GoPro camera to capture my notes at SF MusicTech. My friends made fun of me for using an HD camera (which is normally...Continue Reading

As I wake up on the floor of a random house in Spokane… I started thinking to myself how “rock & roll” this is!!! Last night we played a show at The Kave in Spokane. We had not scheduled a place to sleep after the Spokane show and before our 8-hour drive to the Seattle...Continue Reading
