Jeff Byrnes’ blog about music, gigging in Boston, & random cool geeky things.
So I’ve been posting a lot of links, reblogs, quotes, and media lately, but nothing of a more personal nature. Life seems to have settled into a bit of a routine, which is probably why I haven’t bored anyone who happens to be reading (comment! I love comments!), but I felt the desire to write about my own life.
Work is going well, definitely settled in finally, learning to fulfill some new roles. Forgive me for withholding more detail, but the Fruit Companyâ„¢ is a bit touchy with blogging.
Musically, things are slow, but it’s still there. Tony Brown & the Faithful (the new name of Tony’s group) has been rehearsing quite a bit, primarily in an effort to build up a repertoire of music. Having only an hour’s worth of music tends to limit the kinds of gigs we can take. Sadly, our drummer JoBeth had to leave the group, but we’re soldiering on. We’ve already begun auditioning new drummers, and hopefully we’ll have somebody on-board soon! As for Maria McNeil, nothing on the horizon at the moment, but keep an eye on the gigs list (or RSS feed if you like) for my upcoming gigs.
Saw Amber this past weekend, which was fantastic, and this coming weekend we’ll be winging out way south to Knoxville, TN, to enjoy my friend John Wiesehan’s wedding. It’s gonna be a ball, really looking forward to it. Interestingly enough, it’ll be the first time we’ve ever gone somewhere & stayed in a hotel together. One of those random little “firstsâ€, y’know?
I'm Jeff Byrnes, a bassist, web coder, avid reader, and Mac user. I'm currently employed by Apple as an iPod Genius at one of its retail stores, but I also code websites freelance part-time, and gig constantly for a rotating cast of bands.
This blog is primarily just a collection of my thoughts, although you can find links to my XHTML / CSS coding CV as well as my musical CV.
