August 28 Boston Mocha Sponsor Secured: Thanks, Ben
My good buddy Ben was the first to step up to the donation plate. Boston-bound himself, my putt putt rival found it in his heart to sponsor an old pal heading out on the road. I look forward to toasting him, and perhaps sharing a personal story of our friendship in a...
Sponsor Synthetic Division’s Mocha Habit
A lot of bands have far worse habits than mine, such as drugs, booze, loose women/men and spandex. But for Synthetic Division, the thing that fuels us are iced mochas. (Well, Josh prefers a hot drink, but he is forgiven.) With the tour coming up soon, I'm trying to...
My Heart Will Go On
Who can forget Celine Dion's Titanic theme, "My Heart Will Go On"? Well, if you did achieve the miracle of forgetting this song, then sadly I am here to remind you. Bella Morte played their cover of this song about a decade ago... this year they finally...

Video Reviews, Depeche Mode Covers, Cobain Remembered
Got lots swirling around in the ol' nugget today, but I want to lead out with yet another remembrance of Kurt Cobain. I know many think he's overrated and overmentioned, but this week marked 17 years since he took his own life... time flies, doesn't it? Near the end...
Synthetic Division “Out of Time” Music Video
Here it is, my band's first ever music video, featuring stop motion and Playmobil toys- including a hospital! Funny thing is, the inspiration for this song came in part from a hospital visit in late 2009... so the creator Dirk Roth's concept really fits the song and...
