Sidetrack Cafe – Edmonton, Alberta – October 18th 2005 It was great knowing that the Sidetrack wanted us to come back and play for them again.

Some one would joke later that they were scared they we were going to … Continue reading Heart of the City Festival – June 11th 2005

I find that most of the time, when some one has to wait for something (no matter what it is) the longer they have to wait, the more emotions start to negatively … Continue reading Patience
People everywhere all the time, you can’t escape it. I guess you can leave if you want. You can go into the wilderness and build yourself a cabin somewhere unknown, hide in the woods, create your own home away from society, isolate yourself and become completely self sufficient. Maybe that would be good. Maybe it would be good to go out on your own and … Continue reading The Risk
Elemental: this word is a sign post. It points towards what the mystics have searched for. It’s the formless form. It’s the first moment beyond the moment. It’s pure Truth; it’s that one total aware experience; when you not only live in the stream, you become the stream. It’s the place where all things exist. It is the True nature of the universe.

It feels like any time there is silence we have to fill it with some thing, god forbid there be a moment of uncomfortable silence to reflect in.
