Music and stuff











In addition to surgery, been doing a little bit of drumming for hire recently. First for Mark Baker's CD release party. Mark's from Ireland and plays a cool Celtic-country-folk blend that sounds a bit like Dylan, Waits if they'd come from the Emerald Isle. Great CD even though I'm not on it.

Also played with a bunch of Korea's finest expat acoustic instrument musicians in an incarnation of the International Goat Breeders. (Yvon, Seth, Garren, Gifford, Mississippi Dave) This was another Irish flavoured session as it was a late St. Patrick's day parade in honor of a Marine's promotion. Photographer William "Bill" George shot some fine photos. Here's a link to his blog, which is worth a visit to see his other pics and read his musings on photography.

Surgery is getting offers for more shows than we can play these days. Already booking shows two months away and got a sweet half page photo and write up in the Korea Herald ("the most talked about expat band in Seoul.. and for good reason"). Two CDs are in the works. The long overdue album of classic Surgery songs and an album of brand new tunes.

Above are some shots from recent shows and goofy promo stuff...
