CocoRosie and Owning a Record Player

I went to the Showbox Market for the first time tonight. You would think living in Seattle for over 2 years and being someone who frequents on average about 1 show a week that I would have seen a show at the Showbox Market by now. This was my first time there. The venue and [...]

Enjoying the cool mist off Lake Michigan

Enjoying the cool mist off Lake Michigan Originally uploaded by Brian Behrens I had an amazing trip back home to Milwaukee. I got to spend a lot of time with my family and old friends I miss.

The iPhone 3G S and the Camera.

Broken Disco 2.0 @ Chop Suey Originally uploaded by Brian Behrens I picked up the new phone on Friday just before lunch at the AT&T store in downtown Seattle.

Owning a bike.

Ride back from maple leaf. Originally uploaded by Brian Behrens Buying a bike about 3 weeks ago now was the best thing I could have ever done. I’ve gone the past year in Seattle without a car.

I know there’s a lot of technology now that “makes our lives easier”, but I believe most just add clutter. Open [...]

I love to run. Lea and I need a dog!

Yesterday Lea and I ran almost 7 miles.  We ran from our apartment to Bradford beach.  We also saw some of the cutest dogs on the beach.  It made the fact that our apartment doesn’t allow dogs worse!  In conclusion, drink lots of fluids and get new shoes.  My knee is very sore today.  Snowboard [...]
