Disco ball


This disco ball is hanging on the second floor of Bromwell's on 4th Street. They had an open house on Saturday. G and I stopped in to see the remodel and expansion they had recently completed. It look great of course. We met the owner and had a nice conversation about downtown - something that has been coming up in conversation a lot lately. Funny how that is.

Reapolstered Eames Lounge set


Who in the hell would do this to an Eames Lounger? Hopefully, the leather was beyond repair and they replaced it to match the curtains in the room. Nope, still unacceptable. I'll have to check it out and see if it's a authentic lounge... In passing on my way to work this morning, it looked real - but I need a second look.

12th & Vine

12th & Vine


After sitting in on Debbbie Millman's "Design Matters" interview with John Foster at the Art Academy in OTR, I walked over to Vine street on my way home. It had been a while since I had walked around over there (I lived nearby in 2001-02) and it's amazing the transformation that has taken place. Though I had always heard about the city's intent to clean up that area and make business more viable there, I had to actually see happen to believe. There is still a lot of work to be done, but the change so far is great. The above photo is facing northwest at 12th and Vine. The store front in the photo is going to be MiCa 12v and is opening next Friday, November 2. There used to be a little crumby convenient store in that space that didn't sell milk. I'm sure they sold plenty of other things out of that spot, if you know what I mean.

So, I just have to say that my confidence in OTR is coming back around. I certainly knew of its potential while living there, it just seemed pretty far off at the time. Seeing this, and hearing about the support that the proposed city street car is getting, I'm excited.

The Black Crowes

At the Taft Theatre. Great show! I saw The Black Crowes a few times in high school/college on accident - they were at festivals I went to, so I didn't directly go to see them. Always enjoyed their show. G is a fan and since this show was a mere two blocks from our place, I figured it would be a good one to get to. They certainly didn't disappoint.

Great moment during the show: some ass throws a beer bottle on stage in the direction of Chris Robinson. He totally stops the show right there and says they won't play again unless dude is kicked out. Folks in the crowd fingered him out and he was booted quickly. Not much of a story, but it was pretty awesome to see. The Crowes turned it up a notch after that and blew the doors off the rest of the show.

Cincinnati band, The Buffalo Killers, opened the show. Photo.

Car wreck


G and I saw this bad boy happen while walking near out condo downtown. The kids in the Audi flew through a red light and slammed into the cab. Everyone was okay. The cabby took the worst of it. I think he hit his face on the steering wheel - there was no airbag. Some fire fighters were soon on the scene and cleaned him up. The kids made it out without a scratch. As fast as they all were going, it amazing that everyone was okay.

Mr. Redlegs paid our section a visit last night while the Reds came back twice to beat the Braves and even their series at a game a piece. I got the pleasure of going to the game with DC. He's got his hands full at home with the kids, so it was a treat that he was able to attend.

Tonight! A bobblehead night for the Reds. I'll be heading down, but probably for just an inning or too. G and I have to get the condo ready for some guests tomorrow night. I mention that because there will be more to that story later. Until then...

It was a nice treat to see the Bengals preseason game tonight. We got word about the tickets on Friday, so it was a bit of a last minute thing. Nothing too exciting happened, and as I write, it looks like we are going to lose (4:42 left in the 4th). We have a long run early tomorow morning, so we took off in the middle of the 3rd quater. Time to hit the sack...

Blake vs Querry


G and I got the hook-up on some Western & Southern Financial ATP tickets for Friday night. The hook-up actually came from W&S too - nice! We watched the match between James Blake and Sam Querry. It was neat to see both of those guys slugging it out, but it didn't hold our attention enough to stick around for the whole match.

More sports on tap the next few days. Tonight we are headed to the Bengals' pre-season game against the Saints. Tuesday I'll be headed to the Reds game... and probably Wednesday night as well since it's Brennamania at the stadium!! They will be giving away Marty and Thom bobbleheads that night. I can't resist.

Silversun Pickups at Southgate House




It's been a few days, but I have to finally update this post with my thoughts on the night.

Yowza!

I've never caught a band two nights in a row. Not even Pearl Jam, folks! The Silversun Pickups do a great show, night in and night out. They showed back to back when I saw them - and this was just off the heels of their Lollapalooza performance, which was likely pretty intense for them. The show Friday night at the Southgate House ended up being sold out with folks hanging out on the steps in front with signs begging for tickets. It was a hot show, folks! Indy the night before was crowded, but not sold out. these guys have been picking up fans all year and it shows. Their set at Southgate House last year opening for Film School was sparsely attended. Damn, I wish I was there! I ended up hearing about them the next day from my friend Amy.

Video (crappy) from the show:
Well Thought Out Twinkles
Little Lover's So Polite

Before the show, I headed to Chris Gliebe's gallery opening at Feralmade. He has some absolutely fantastic work there - tons of robot stuff!! When I showed up just after the doors opened at 7pm, half his work was sold. By the end of the night all but two pieces were spoken for. I'm sure they will be snagged before the end of the show next month. I got a chance to speak with Chris, and he seemed like a fantastic guy and signed the his Fatcap toy that I bought at the show. Too bad I ended up smudging it before I even got back to the car!

Pickin' in the basement


On Friday night, I just happen to run into my Grandmother (Gran) while I was walking home from work. She was catching the bus back home from spending the day at the zoo. Her transfer was downtown, and on the street I walk home on. So, of course, I offer her a ride home. It's been a while since I have seen her so it was great to catch up on things.

G and I take her back home to Ludlow and stop in to say hi to my grandfather (Papaw) who was having a jam session with fellas that he's been playing with most of his life. We sat in on their session and really enjoyed it. The photo above was from the session, taken in the basement. The same basement that not only my brother and I played in as kids, but also my mom. They have owned this house for nearly 50 years.

Back to the music... Now, I have always known that Papaw was a pretty impressive musician, playing country-western and blues influenced music. He's got a great touch on the guitar and a pretty sweet voice. Though I've been around him all my life, I bet I can only recall 5-6 times I have sat their and watched him play. Knowing this, G and I sat and watched last night with great intent and really took it in. Though the guys were just having fun and not too worried about being tight, they were awesome to listen to. You could tell these guys have been playing together for years. Also, this photo only shows Papaw on the left with his friend, on the acoustic guitar. There are also four other musicians there, three guitar players and a fella on bass.

At one point, one of the guys (I am blanking on everyone's names!) offer his guitar to me to sit in. I can't play a lick of guitar, so I had to decline, and I have to say, I kinda hurt me inside. I really wished I could have joined in. I know Papaw would have really dug that. So... playing the guitar is being put on the life list :)

So, my point is... it was awesome. I got to see my grandfather in his element and really appreciate it. I know he appreciated us being down there and being fans. We truly were fans too. All because I just happened for run into Gran. I know it happened for a reason.

Rob's view


From 525 row A seat 4.

Rob and got to another game this week. That makes 3 in-a-row for Rob and 4 straight for me. I don't think I've made it to more than two game in a row before. Fun.

This will be it on the baseball photos for now. G and I are headed to London tomorrow night, and Paris later next week. We'll not only be taking in the sights in Europe, but also going to the Pearl Jam show in London at Wembley Arena. We're pumped, for sure.

From what I understand, my mobile phone will work overseas and I should be able to send text and picture messages. So, I'll set up a Europe blog to post to and also post to my PJ photo blog during the show. Hopefully things will work well. It will cost a pretty penny per message, so I won't be pounding the messages like I usually do. Probably just a smattering of the scene.

Hopefully they can grab another win, and keep going in the Kelly Cup playoffs. Here are a few photos from along the boards:

Another car mishap


So, Friday was a hell of a day for car accidents. First, the car on fire, then this. You can really see much from this photo, but just outside of Louisville (on our way to see The Decemberists), we drove by a car that was flipped completely upside down and on the side of the highway. C-R-A-Z-Y. This did not look like a good accident. The passengers in my car said they saw a woman sitting on the guard rail holding her head while coved in blood. Not cool.

On a more entertaining car spotting moment, G and I drove past a car Saturday afternoon that had a woman leaning leaning out of the side of the car throwing up. Sorry, no photo on that one.

I am not making any of this up. I seem to witness this stuff on a daily basis anymore.

Car fires, gotta love 'em!

Car fire on I-275

I'm not sure what it is, but maybe I'm lucky or something. The past few years I've been witness to several car fires. Not just little things, but cars that are fully engulfed in flames. There's something about seeing fireball on the side of the highway. The photo above was taken this morning right after I dropped of G for work on 75/71 north in Kentucky. I can't believe I got such a great shot of it while driving by. Yes, I was gawking... but I tried to keep it to a minimum.

Here's another car fire that G and I drove by while leaving Chicago a few years ago:

Car fire on Chicago highway

There have been a few others. While CiN Weekly was in their offices on Reading Road, there was a car in the parking lot going up in flames. Pretty exciting. Sorry, no photo for that one... didn't have my camera on me that day!

In high school, I had a Fiero (yes, awesome, I know) and while driving on I-275 one night, I drove by another Fiero that had just been on fire. Since the body was made of fiberglass, the entire back end of the car (it was a mid-engine design) had pretty much melted off. I felt awful for the poor little Fiero. It also scared the hell out of me. Sorry, no photo of that one either. I have photos of my Fiero in boxes somewhere... I may have to dig one of those out soon.

Aside fires, I do run into other car mishaps and photograph them. Here is an AMAZING wreck that happened in the parking garage across from CiN Weekly back in 2004. Here's another nice little accident down the street from our previous apartment. Enjoy!

Opening Day was fantastic this year. Great weather, great game, great times. I ended up scoring some great seats thanks to my friend Gina (She has more photos too!), much to the chagrin of Tall Paul who actually got to buy Opening Day tickets from the Reds by winning the ticket lottery they did.

Jungle Kats get mauled


Dad and I headed to the first Jungle Kats game last night to only see them get their asses handed to them. It was apparent they didn't know what they were doing, and Quad City just pounded them 81-21. The thing is with these arena games is that they are fun even if our team doesn't win. You don't have the emotional attachment with them like you would the Bengals or the Reds. So, though it was a lopsided game, it was fun to watch when great plays were made by either team.

We have season tickets, so we'll be heading to the rest of the games. Maybe we'll see a winner one of these weeks.

The Walkmen


Caught The Walkmen at the Southgate House last night. Good show, though I was not too excited about the encore. I don't know their songs well enough to tell you the setlist, but it ended on a bit of a downer. I'm not disappointed though, it was a good show. They tore through a great version of "The Rat". Check out this live version on Letterman here. That song totally kicks ass.

On my way to work this morning I was thinking about how this week is like a little personal SXSW. I will be making it to four shows six days. Here's the rundown:

Sunday March 11th - Stars of Track and Field
Monday March 12th - The Walkmen
Thursday March 15th - Justin Timberlake (yes - TIMBERLAKE!!!!)
Friday March 16th - Brand New

Not a bad week, eh? Since I know a few folks that are traveling out west the Austin for SXSW, the shows will take my mind off the jealousy.

So, Timberlake... Yes, G and I are going. She won tickets to the show. I'm actually looking forward to it - it will probably be fun.

The only thing we picked up was a Tribo Stool. It's a nice little piece and we got a decent price on it. It ended up being the only thing we picked up at the sale, making this the lightest spending sale we have ever been too. We did end up ordering this Angela Adams rug from Mica during their Winter Sale, so we still got our condo upgrading fix this weekend.

Spotlight dudes


So, I've never seen this before - in the stage rig for RHCP, they had four guys on each side stationed in the hanging scaffolding (yes, above the stage) each manning a spotlight for each member of the band. They would have two lights on either side of the stage spotlighting each member of the band. It was crazy to see them each climb a rope ladder a good 40-50 feet off the floor. 400-50 is a complete guess... but it was pretty high. I wish I had a better photo of it, this one doesn't show the guy very well.

The whole stage set-up was pretty intense. I've see a few Pearl Jam shows and they are pretty stripped down compared to this. As cool and big as it was, it was nothing compared to the Rolling Stones set-up. But, what band has that???
