Music To Be A Boy By
August 20, 2008 – 01:15 pm
That’s my nephew Finn.
According to Finn’s dad, he’s a big fan of Jonny Lang. If you haven’t heard of Jonny Lang, he’s like the less-talented love-child of Jeff Buckley and Derek Trucks. He’s not bad, but he’s not crazy good like Buckley or Trucks.
But here’s my question to you. If you were to recommend music [...]

Happy New Year, everybody!
Sorry things have been a little slow around here, but Dawn and I have been going non-stop since the weekend before Christmas and I’ve barely been at my computer, let alone had the time to put together a post for FI. The slow period will probably last a little bit longer, since [...]
Wolfgang’s Got It Jacked
October 18, 2007 – 11:56 am
A few months ago, my brother Shawn told me about a website called Wolfgang’s Vault, which he was using to listen to Allman Brothers concerts from the 1970s. I checked it out, but didn’t pay much attention, and the site soon fell off my radar.
Then on Monday, Shawn forwarded me a description of a 1973 [...]
The Aesthetic Principle

Two nights ago, Dawn and I watched Miles Electric: A Different Kind of Blue, a documentary about Miles Davis’s turn from acoustic to electric music. It centers around Miles’ performance at the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival, where Miles and his band played to over half a million people. Other performers at the festival included [...]
2 Years, 1 Month, 2 Weeks, and 1 Day
March 13, 2007 – 12:00 am
On January 25th, 2005, I received my current computer in the mail, a Mac mini. At the time, I was doing an Eco League semester at Alaska Pacific University in Anchorage, AK. I bought the computer because the five-year-old iMac DV I already owned would have cost me something like $450 to ship to Alaska, [...]
