Stoneburner @ Johnny B’s
I have never seen a crowd at Johnny B’s anywhere near as large as last night’s Stoneburner gig. Hopefully, they play Club 66 next time so that more people can actually see them.
They played a couple of new tunes to kick things off and the new songs are incredible. I’m really looking forward to their next release.
More photos from yesterday’s Southern Oregon University softball victory
One of my reasons for shooting yesterday’s softball game was to see if I could get away with taking only my Nikon 70-300mm VR to Japan and Korea this summer where I plan to attend several professional baseball games. My other option is to take my 70-200mm f/2.8 and a 1.7X teleconverter. The problem is those two combined weigh more than twice as much as my 70-300mm and they take up more space in my luggage.
The 70-300mm passed the test in sunny conditions. Unfortunately, most of the games I will go to in Korea and Japan will probably be at night and/or indoors. I’m still leaning towards the 70-300mm though.

Fire in the Northwest returns to Club 66 tomorrow night

Tomorrow night I don’t know what to do. Three bands I want to see are playing at three different venues. Witch Cult will be at Northwest Pizza, and Stoneburner will be at Johnny B’s in Medford.
If only bands started on a schedule in this part of the world like they do in most other places, I could probably figure out a way to see at least two of them.
I’ll probably end up going to see Stoneburner since I can see Witch Cult and Fire in the Nortwest next week in Ashland.

Alpha Kappa Psi’s “Car Smash 2013” at SOU
For the next few days you can head to the parking lot between Cox Hall and Omar’s and take a sledge hammer to a car.

Northwest Pizza and Pasta Company has transformed itself under new ownership over the past year and a half. They now have an open mic night. After hours they have started having live acts as well.
I headed to Northwest last night to hear Twice Born Gypsies, a band I’d never heard of before, but the “psychedelic space rock” description sounded good. “Fuck! A Monster” was listed as the opening act on the ad I saw, but given that members are also in FatherDoug (who was playing in Medford at the same time), I figured that wouldn’t happen. Arlo Brooks, who is in Fuck! A Monster but not FatherDoug, opened. His set was a trip, and everything he used to make the sounds he created fit in his backpack.
More treats from Jolene’s Sweets
Jolene whipped up some more of her creations yesterday. The one in focus in today’s photo is her Chocolate Turtle Cake, a rich, three-layer dark chocolate cake frosted with rich creamy fudge, caramel, and toasted pecans.
