I certainly hope everyone is having a great start to 2007. I wanted to soak in the first few weeks of the year before I decided whether or not it was going to be a good year. I think at this point, it is going to be pretty typical: plans made, plans thwarted, no weight lost. The trifecta of my life.

I have not noticed anything new on the music front locally. Most of the same people are playing the same old thing. Still, there is some great music coming out right now. Check out a new self titled project coming out by Jherek Bischoff, which can be found at www.elevenrecords.com. He is one of the most formidible bass players in the area, and has a unique ear for composition.

And, as always, the Degenerative Art Ensemble is putting out some great stuff.

As for me, just listening, watching, and not doing much.
