A review of The Record Exchange

The Record Exchange is the best record store in Boise, maybe even all of Idaho. They have a great selection of CD’s plus a lot of other stuff such as magazines, tee-shirts, etc. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It definitely has that cool indie-music store air. I like spending time here.

I guess I’ve never been…

When I was in 7th grade, my brother and sister were both in the Payette high school band. That year, the band took a trip to Los Angeles to play at Disneyland. My mom went along as a bus chaperone. Along the way, we stopped at the MGM Grand hotel in Las Vegas because the jazz band was going to play there for some show or something. We really only stayed for a short time, and it really wasn’t exciting because this was when the Mob still ran the show, so there really wasn’t anything exciting for a 11 year old kid like me.

Part of the above paragraph is untrue. I was talking about this with my mom a few weeks ago. She pointed out to me that this was at the MGM Grand in Reno, not in Vegas. For years, I had said that I’ve been to Vegas, but only when I was too young. All that time, I was incorrect.

So, I’ve never been to Vegas. I want to go.

A review of New York City: Too much for one weekend…

I went to New York for the first time last November. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to see everything I wanted to see in this beautiful city. I want to go back soon and see more.

How San Francisco changed my life

San Francisco is quickly becoming one of my favorite cities that I’ve been to. It is so beautiful with so much fun stuff to do. I am certain that this is the area where I want to live.

For a while…

For a while I was practicing my bass every night. I had learned a few songs. Most of them were fairly simplistic, but I figure any practice can only make me better.

However, I haven’t practiced in the last month. I need to get back on it.
