It's true, Synthetic Division is heading to L.A. My longtime pal, Josh, whom I wrote about in My Pet Virus, is filling in for Marshall, the keyman for Synthetic Division. Today I was being pretentious and writing at a coffee shop when Gwenn called. "Hey, I have a...

Synthetic Division “National” Tour
OK, so it's not really a national tour. It doesn't span 2 cities- Los Angeles and a show in Richmond- and I won't be traveling in a van for the tour: I'll be flying out using Reward Miles. Oh, and the shows are one month apart. But hey, cut me some slack, that's how...
My Valentines
Happy Belated Valentine's Day! It's somewhat of an empty salutation, because Gwenn and I don't really celebrate the occasion. When we first started dating, we opted to celebrate President's Day instead, because it falls around the same time and it was much easier to...
Synthetic Division in Graphic Novel
I'm am beyond honored that Synthetic Division, my synth-duo alter ego, is on a t-shirt in Ross Campbell's new graphic novel, Wet Moon 3. Two of his characters are cuddling on a bed, and share a kiss- one is wearing a Synthetic Division t-shirt. It's the coolest thing...
Synthetic Division Reviews
Check out some cool Synthetic Division reviews, over at ReGen Magazine.com and Subculture Shock on MySpace. New tunes up on MySpace, btw. Too lazy to click? I understand. But ReGen noted that Synthetic Division is "like a bastard child of Erasure and DEVO; it has the...

Got an add over on MySpace from a band named Fumilayo, and really enjoyed a tune called "The AIDS Song". Give a listen by visiting them on MySpace: Fumilayo. Positively Yours, Shawn
Bella Morte & Big Test
This week I'm getting an HIV test. For real! Not because I'm unsure about my status, it's just a quick and easy way to make $20. Got a letter from Dr. Greg about the local ASO running a clinical trial for a new 10 second HIV test. So they want positoids to take it, to...
Dragon*Con. Pure Awesomesness. Captured on Vid.
The written word can not describe the awesomeness of last weekend. So enjoy this vid I made for BMTV. Positively Yours, Shawn
Vid From CD Release Party
Watch me shake my tush! Ignore it when I botch the middle of the song. ;O) Thanks to Michael S. for taping the show! Positively Yours, Shawn
The Blog’s Too Big Without You
On Thursday I saw The Police in concert in Philadelphia. I was amongst 25,000 of the whitest white people I've ever seen in my life. Most everyone had a beer in their hand, a smile on their face and a baseball cap on their head. And usually when I see a 45 year-old...
