Q2 Review of my plans for 2014

24 July 2014

In January, I put together a list of things I wanted to get done in 2014, this is my second review of how I'm doing. As I mentioned in my Q1 review back in April, it's one thing to write down plans for the year, and another thing to review them at the end. But […]

Q1 Review of my plans for 2014

25 April 2014

It's easy to write New Year's Resolutions at the start of the year, then write about them at the end of the year, and wonder why you didn't lose weight, save money, or do that thing you wanted to.

DnB + Ceilidh = Doubly Awesome :: Monster Ceilidh Band

12 February 2012

One thing that I don't talk about that much is my tendency to fall in love with fusions of traditional and contemporary. Take something awesome and traditional. Mix it with something awesome and contemporary. The result will be doubly awesome! This post is about a band who certainly seem to be taking the "let's just […]
