Some pics for kicks

Here are some pics taken recently at events I've been involved with, attending, or happened across.


I judged a Battle of the Bands at campus two weekends ago. It was a lot of fun and wasn't as terrible as I thought it was going to be. I got to hear a pop-punk band (The Cult of Sue Todd, pictured above) and witness the slow destruction of a PA speaker throughout the course of the evening (because it is always smart to mix BEHIND the band).


I was at a convention in Sacramento this past weekend and caught this pic while walking to a very good-n-turrible brewpub for lunch with colleagues.


At the same convention, I got to play this interesting guitar from Yamaha. They call it the 'Silent Classical' guitar. Somehow 'silent classical' seems like a redundant name for a guitar to me.
