I'm leaving town
October 13, 2010 – 11:46 am
Not right away, but for real; I’m moving to Minneapolis this wonder. I love it there, and I’m really excited about going, except for this: It’s going to be a lot harder to make it to Tin Cat practice. So, we’re having a farewell show! Mark your calendar: November 13, Red Rock Coffee, Mountain View, [...]
Stop the Gush – benefit concert with Careless Hearts
June 26, 2010 – 1:13 pm
Next Tuesday (June 29) we’re playing a benefit concert at the Theatre on San Pedro Square, in downtown San Jose. We’ll be opening for roots rockers Careless Hearts. Proceeds will go to help people affected by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and to advocate for clean energy alternatives to oil. Brown Paper [...]
ArtShots wrap-up
May 24, 2010 – 11:50 pm
We had a great time at the ArtShots screening and awards ceremony tonight. It was great to see all the films (despite some glitches), hear Amy Obenski again, play music in a theater, and meet a bunch of creative people. And Evan (who directed our video) won a prize! “Artist’s Champion,” I think, which will [...]

Tin Cat, meet Pirate Cat
October 4, 2009 – 9:27 pm
Tom and I went up to San Francisco Thursday morning to play on the Pretty Good Not Much show on Pirate Cat Radio. Pirate radio’s a little more… relaxed than public radio. That’s all I’m gonna say about that. Here’s an audio clip from the show: Tin Cat on Pirate Cat Radio (15MB MP3). It [...]
live in San Francisco (twice)
September 30, 2009 – 9:53 pm
We’re playing tomorrow, Thursday, October 1, on Pirate Cat Radio, 87.9 FM in San Francisco. Actually I’m not sure if all of us will be there, but at least Tom, probably me, and maybe Dave. Anyway, it’s at 11:00 AM, and it sounds like if you’re in the neighborhood you can drop by the cafe [...]
Spotlight on San Jose
September 9, 2009 – 2:09 pm
So, this is cool: DJ Lottie of Breakthru Radio put together a 90-minute program of music from San Jose! And hey, we’re in it! Along with a lot of other good stuff. I’m already a fan of The Mumlers and Corpus Callosum – and of course I’m a member of DeatHat – but I’d never [...]
an anniversary party for The Long Way
July 7, 2009 – 12:17 am
(CD anniversary show, Red Rock Coffee, July 18! Click through for the whole story.)
It’s been almost a year since we stopped at a rest area off I-5, unloaded bags and boxes from the truck, and, after peanut butter and jelly, assembled the first copies of our CD, “The Long Way”. I always wanted to have a CD release show when we were done – well, now we’re a year done. It’s time.
groovepainter show this Saturday
May 12, 2009 – 3:10 pm
Micah Bariteau, aka “groovepainter”, often seen sketching musicians at concerts and open mikes, has a show of his art up at Mission City Coffee this month. Here’s a piece he did of us at Red Rock Coffee a couple months back. Click the image for a larger version. I like the way he draws over metallic swirls of paint – it’s a cool textural approach.
