Today’s Special

Posted by Wyck on October 27th, 2006

So I was listening to my accordion-ukelele piece from last week, and I was thinking that a long time ago I had written and recorded a song that had both accordion and mandolin (synthesized) sounds in it. It has been kind of eating me up, so I decided to go looking for it.
I found […]

World Of Warcrack

Posted by Wyck on October 23rd, 2006

For those of you who don’t think it’s an addiction, consider that my dad has a level 30 character, and he only plays at my place when he visits for the occasional weekend, a two hour drive between us, and he has logged 9 days, 17 hours total time played!
As a present to my dad, […]

Fly Me Tangent To The Moon

Posted by Wyck on October 16th, 2006

Going off on a tangent, however biprepositionally oxymoronic that may be, doesn’t often involve literally flying in a straight line that intersects a circle at exactly one point.

Can’t We All Just Get Along?

Posted by Wyck on October 13th, 2006

When I’m sitting in my music room, I usually keep the ukelele on my lap just to keep from having idle hands and ears. (Incidentally, when I sit at the computer, it’s the Rubik’s cube.) When I sit there playing that little guitar I always stare into the corner where the accordion sits […]

‘Intense’ Percussion

Posted by Wyck on October 9th, 2006

Percussion! Ah, how I love it! Shortly after I bought my Roland TD-7 drum kit, I had some fun with it. I recorded this piece in a fighting kind of mood. The idea was vaguely kung-fu film soundtrack, partly Drummers of Burundi, with a little bit of The Terminator thrown in for […]

Royal Medieval Faire 2006

Posted by Wyck on October 6th, 2006

Last weekend was the 2006 Royal Medieval Faire. It was rainy in the early part of the day, but it cleared up just long enough for the faire to happen. What luck! There was falconry, archery, heraldry, the queey fairy, and many other -ry’s. There were great swordfights, good food, vendors selling […]

C’mon, Bring Yourself!

Posted by Wyck on October 2nd, 2006

I invited myself to a couch party! It got a little out of hand. At first it was just me, myself, and I, then I showed up, but when I tried to send myself home, I came over, and then…well you get the idea.
All I wanna know is, if I was sitting on the […]
