Yup, that’s Fathead in the smoking cage with a beer a cigarette and Dylan who is also armed with beer and smokes. Boy they sure treat you like a king if you wanna drink and smoke at the Vienna airport.
YES! Those are actual rocks for sale in that gumball machine. Wtf? only one Euro each.
The Harvest Festival has added a second Melbourne date to our calendar this November 10th. Tickets for this date go on sale 22 August at 9am (AEST) at harvestfestival.com.au/tickets.
Did our MAYOR of PORTLAND actually just sign up our whole city to put POISON in our WATER? WTF?
I’ve heard that making beer with flouridated water concentrates it to the point of causing illness. So is this gonna mean that our brewpubs have to go away?
A Brita filter won’t get it out of our tap water so I’m really wondering if bottled water companies go around bribing city officials to sign up their citizens? I’ve also been told that heavy industry creates this crap (as a side effect of destroying our environment) so they also would then want to sell this and thus the big flouride scam of the 1970s.
We have had 2 rreservoir poisoning incidents in the last couple years. Could this be done to scare people into buying into this?
Huffinton Post’s Steven Shehori has an exclusive look at our new video for “Alternative Power to the People” along with a few words from Courtney about what the song and video mean. Check it here.
Still in Spain. Has anyone ever seen this crooked shield over the door business before?
This wine was amazing. I don’t know what Sicilia has to do with it but since my wine is Sicilian and Bodegas Vega is about the best of Spain I kinda expected that it would be. I’ll do a little research when I get home.
Looks like this might be somebody’s final tour. Boo hoo. A farewell to Feet.

Wymond Miles is playing at Holocene in Portland Wednesday and 1776 is opening. The three of us played together in Denver and it was an amazing night all around.
And 1776 has a lot of amazing new songs that haven’t been recorded yet so show up in time to see them.

By the way last night me and some of the gang sat in a bar in the Spanish town of Aranda de Duero and watched Spain give the U.S. Basketball team a run for their money. Safe to say we weren’t the most popular folks in the bar but I must admit that one look at Kobe Bryant and I found myself rooting for the Spaniards. I guess I have some deeply seeded Western Conference resentment built up.
Ok it looks like we haven’t gotten retail permission for outside the USA so lemme work on it. Thanks everyone for your outstanding show of patience.
It’s too hot to ship wine for at least another month or two so I’ll try to get it going in time for the ship date. Alcohol I’m finding has a lot of weird and old laws surrounding it.
Looks like paradise, right? I dove in and it’s so cold I think I got a fugging concussion. Wtf. It’s like a hundred out here so where do they get 4,000 gallons of icewater? And why? Nobody goes in. That’s why I can get a picture of a pool with nobody in it at noon when it’s 100 degrees out.
Oh. There it is. Looks like there’s no need to go outside after all.

España. Driving north from Madrid to the wine country called Ribera del Duero. Had one of their wines last night and it was very good. Not a lot of “character” which I was glad of. More like Bordeaux than Rioja.
So I was just remarking on how much it looks like eastern Oregon on this drive. Except that that when you pass a building it looks like this.
