Hey gang. I finished shooting Dinosaurs! today. What a day. I am exhausted. Unfortunately, only a few extras showed up...but that's okay because I would have hated to deal with tons of people. Everything went amazingly. I couldn't wish for any better ( Read more... )

I'd really appreciate if anybody can make it to this. If you can, please wear dark, casual clothing. I promise a good time. It's the Jon garauntee!

So I had this dream last night. Mary-Kate Olsen moved into my house, but she never flat out said that she was Mary-Kate Olsen. I definitely didn't even think about who she was or anything. We became pretty good friends. It was cool ( Read more... )

Last night, I had the chance to randomly see Brendon Benson and the Presidents of the United States of American play live in Greenwich Village...for free. My brother Scott's band was playing as part of the CMJ music marathon, so he has a pass to go to any show that's part of the marathon. Seeing PUSA has been a dream of mine since I bought their ( Read more... )

I just met with Jilly, the dancer for my Dinosaurs! music video. I am super psyched about it and I can just tell that she's going to do a great job.

I had waited for October 6th for a very long time. My friend Sara and I went to see John Vanderslice and the Mountain Goats and it was amazing! JV is definitely up there along with GBV as far as amazing live acts go. The Mountain Goats surprised me a lot. I found myself really digging their set. It was even nicer when JV and some of his crew ( Read more... )

I know I am laying this on thick for some of you, but I posted something for the first time on www.songfight.org. So if you go to the red section, I am The Wilson Heights Gang. You can give it a listen if you'd like to, and vote for me if you have the extra second. I finished the song last night only because I had to for the deadline. That's ( Read more... )

Hey pals. Before I spend tons of time making jam (working title: Aberjam Lincoln), I will be making a music video for the Bikini Carwash Company's song Dinosaurs! (listen to it) This will be featured on a DVD dedicated to music videos done by about a dozen different filmmakers for this one song. As I have been asked to make one, I will need a ( Read more... )
