Titanium Sporkestra is no more. I won’t go into too much detail about how/why The Sporkestra met its demise, mainly because it was a bit of a surprise to me. It kind of reminded me of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar tragedy. It’s sad to have the band gone, but also a bit of a relief to… Continue reading R.I.P. Titanium Sporkestra

Returned from Austin
Honk TX is over; it again was a blast. It seems like we played almost nonstop in between sleeping and eating.
