Cash Games 2005: The games are good, I'm learning fast and moving up stakes to 2/4NL....  2006: Still doing well at 2/4NL until the UIGEA hits and the games start to dry up.... 2007: Start to struggle at 2/4NL but then go on nice little tear....  2008: No graph available (PT3 can't import my old hands), but I lose about $2,000 when the games continue to dry up and my game starts to slip from lack of practice.... 2009: After continuing to struggle at 2/4NL I drop back down to 1/2NL on my main site. For fun I also start a Ferguson challenge to see how fast I can build up my Pokerstars account from $0 playing freerolls and microstakes -- so far I'm at $94.74! At 1/2NL I plug some leaks, and eventually get comfortable enough to revisit 2/4NL. I start taking stabs at 3/6NL at the end of the year, but that doesn't turn out so well. Not going to try that again for a while. Incidentally, PT has this feature that lets you see how lucky you are in all-in pots. In my case, not very....  Tournaments 2005 to present: I win a bunch early on, including a seat to the 2005 WSOP, where I got to play with James Woods for a while but busted out 10 hours into Day 1. Since then, still looking for another big score.... |

Just recorded and posted Dream Machine. Two songs in one day?

I just posted Abaddon, Part 3, which is actually the original version of the song.

We should be birds. But we walk
backwards, eyes empty, the roar of the end in our ears. |

Welcome to the new website! I'll occasionally post news and commentary here, but this page really exists more as a kind of landfill for my brain. It often won't make much sense. Sorry.
