back up and running.

Well, after a few weeks of being offline, jasonhoehn.com is back up and running.

Nothing really new online, but the site is back up. So enjoy.

Pegwarmers is well on its way, and I think i have about %75 of the footage I need shot. So soon I will begin the long task of cutting the thin, (ack). I have about 45 hours of footgae right now, so it should work out well. Spent the weekend in Edmonton shooting some medieval guys beating the piss out of each other with swords and stuff,... Fun!. One dude cut his lip open, had to get stitches. I got it on camera,... cool.

This upcoming weekend is the big inagural Grand Prix of Edmonton. should be totally cool. Myself and a couple buddies have been going to Vancouver for years, and its nice that the race is close. Save's me a hell of a lot of cash. Check the video section for a video from one of our race weekends.

Anyways, I'll keep you informed as to whats up. Just checking in to let you know that things are back online.

Diggit.

Action packed afternoon

So, I came into work yesteday and noticed a big tour bus parked out back. Now you have to realize that I work above a recording studio, so musicians come in and out all the time. But this was the biggest tour bus I've seen here yet. So we asked who it was.

April Wine!!!

(hee)

Yup, the grand daddy of Canadian dinosaur bands was here, performing for about 45 minites for a digital radio program. OH BOY OH BOY OH BOY!. So I figured what the hell, good way to burn off an afternoon instead of working and I stayed for the the free little show. And be damned if they weren't half bad.About 80 people jammed the little recording studio, so it was pretty intimate and kinda cool. I don't really know much april Wine, kinda before my time, but of the stuff I head yesterday I thikn they are porbably much better live than they are in the studio. One of those good live acts. dude says they'e been around since '69 (yes,36 years ago) and are starting a new studio album, which will be studio album #18. Holy crap. Lotsa songs.

So Once the "concert" ended I trotted back upstaris and bumped into a co-worker. A buddy of his was in yesterday, and they mentioned that they were going to, (wait for it) WWE RAW!! . . . (hee). So we headed off to the big wrasslin' show. Now, I've never been a wrasslin fan at all, and never really had much interest in going, but figured what the hell, may as well, it's only 20 bucks.

LAME is not a big enough word to describe to you how dumb it was. Okay, I'll admit there were some entertaining parts, and the fans were getting into it, but there was only 4 matches inthe 2 hours we watched the show. FOUR. Seems like wrestling has slipped a lot since it became WWE. It was far from a sellout, and I really didn't know any of the wrestlers. Oh well, it was a night out. No Vince McMahon, and the "big guys" like Kane and Y2J didn't wrestle. weak.

Anyhoo, yeah, that was my evening. Classy. April wine and WWE. Where's my pickup?.

- Braddy's Theme -

Over the last couple of months I've been wanting to get back into making music. And after rebuilding my PC I've installed all the old favourites. Cakewalk, Adobe Audition and Jammer. I've also just installed a new bit of software called "Midi2Wave" and it does exactly that, converts midi files into wave files. So I've cut out on step in my process of creating music. I no longer have to output my music to DAT and then re-capture it. Pure digital, DDD.

Anyhoo, I've just completed my newest song, called "Braddy's Theme", and it will be one of the tracks on my new compilation "Serious Playground".

I'll upload it to the website when I get a chance. I'm gonna start working on a few other little songs this week. Should be fun. I think "Serious Playground" is going to be a little more "cool" and "ambient" and a little less tehcno-ish.

I'll keep you up to date.

The Dark Side

Well the big ubergeek night has come and gone. The new Star Wars movie premiere is now history. After all the buzz and excitement, the thing is finally being shown.

So on "Sith-Eve" I managed to drag my sorry butt and video camera out to the Paramount thetare for the midnight screening of the show, and i got some really great footage of fans doing what they do best. Lots of St wars fans there, but also a ton of sci-fi fantasy guys as well. Generally it was a good night of just plain old fashioned fandom. Lotsa fun had by all. the Theatre was PACKED, and it felt a little bit like a carnival with the atmosphere the costumers and general mayhe, surrounding the big event.

Anyhoo, a good time was had by all, and I managed to get some great footage and interviews. To be honest I was thinking about blowing off the screening but I'm glad i went. i would have missed out on some really funny stuff and really what would have been a historical night in sci-fi fandom.

All right then, it's the long weekend. off to Edmonton to hang with friends and family and havea bit of a barbecue at the folks house, and I'm also going to pull the top off my Jeep for the first time. Should be a good weekend.

This whole Blog thing

Ya know, I've come to the conclusion that my blogging skills are kinda lacking.

Okay, but not great. I think the problem is that I've never had any kind of diary or daily log or anything, so for me to put my thoughts to paper is a little bit alien. I think the blogging I have done is a shining example of that. Pretty much nothing for the most part. Just not much to say. I suck,....

I think part of the problem is that a blog is kind of a creative outlet, and I get enough creative outlet at work. So, for the most part when I'm at home on my PC I just wanna surf, veg, shoot space aliens, whatever. Thus my blogging suffers. I just don't feel like saying that much. Like right now, I'm actually struggling a bit to find something to say. That and I don't feel a paticular need to share my deepest innermost feelings online for all the world to see. Just ain't that kinda guy, ya know,.... And as for day to day stuff?, well, my life is pretty routine from day to day. If I was blogging my life it would pretty much be "got up, went to work, got home, ate, went to bed,.... repeat,...."

Whatever.

Anyhoo, I promise to try to make my blogging more interesting for the readers. Not that there are many. In fact there are probably zero. So you know, if you're reading this you're probably it . . . Nice . . .

Well that's about it for now. nothing new to tell you. I think I'm gonna watch come Law and Order SVU. Looks like a good one.

Misheard Lyrics

Sometimes love don't feel like a shoe

It's my destiny to be the King of Spain

I Mix you like Gravy

I'm a Barbie squirrel in a Barbie whirl.

if you wanna be my mother
you gotta get with my dad

What's love cocka-doo, cocka-doo, cocka-doo with it?

Once, twice, three times a day dear.

Are you going to Harvard or Yale?

Oh Canada, we stand on cars and freeze...

Bakin' Carrot Biscuits!

Take me down to a very nice city.

Whoa-whoa here shes comes, she's a bad reader!

...but the CHAIR is not my son

Give that ass a slap!

This is ground control to Major Tongue

We will, we will rob you.

No dogs of chasm in the crossroads

No Dukes of Hazzard in the classroom

Lunatic bitch

Excuse me, while I kiss this guy

Got my first real sex dream, I was 5 at the time.

Werewolf of Thunder

Whose bed have your boobs been under?

Sweet dreams are made of leaves

The smell of fat chicks just puts a smile on my face
