		<title>Just returned from the Paul F. Tompkins show</title>
		<description><![CDATA[He just played the Firedbird in St. Louis. And he killed it. Listening to his (free—and very funny) Pod F. Tompkast now. Kinda like my old-guy, comedy-show version of cranking Aerosmith in the arena parking garage on the way of out the Aerosmith concert. Here&#8217;s the one pic I managed to snap during his set:]]></description>

		<title>Photo: One, two, three, four, five&#8230; sex?!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I&#8217;m on this seemingly-megalomaniacal self-pic-posting kick, I wanted to share this one with you today. [Story is continued below huge photo... so don't click away in disgust JUST YET.] Now, this was taken back in the Fall of 2007 at a festival that FPM was playing in a small, German town in Illinois called [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo: Me playing with FPM at a basement show in about &#8217;92</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Were you at this show/party? You know, the one in Carbondale where I gave the only set of FPM&#8217;s van keys to Justin to hold onto during our set, and then we both forgot about that little transaction while he left and headed back home—where we&#8217;d all come from, and two hours away—after the show&#8230; [...]]]></description>

		<title>PFT in STL this SAT; and some good blog reading</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I thought I&#8217;d mention—since I&#8217;m at least partially responsible for his choice of venue for this show—that Paul F. Tompkins will be performing at the Firebird in St. Louis this Saturday, August 28. My son and I used to watch Paul host Best Week Ever* on VH1 every Friday night together as a father/son bonding [...]]]></description>

		<title>Now presenting the all-new Essentials shirt (but how?!)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently tasked with visually presenting to you the first items to be available in the new store: the two new Essentials shirts. The first possible presentation solution? The ol&#8217; &#8220;stick-the-digital-design-on-a-stylized-shirt-shaped-graphic&#8221; method. And while easy to whip up in Photoshop this method just doesn&#8217;t come close to representing the true quality of the actual [...]]]></description>

		<title>Visit the brand new SwingStomp store</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The store is now open. Give it a visit, and maybe pick up a nice, new shirt. The SwingStomp shirt I&#8217;m wearing in the photo below (with my lovely wife Mia) is seriously my new favorite. It fits great, is super lightweight (including the ink), and I can finally wear something drum-related in public without [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s up with the store</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Honestly, I meant to launch the store here months ago, but I held off because of the aforementioned logo confusion. Now that that has been addressed, I&#8217;m currently putting together the first offerings for the store and will announce their availability soon.]]></description>

		<title>New SwingStomp logo (and it was never a tambourine)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always liked the SwingStomp logo, but to many people (mostly non-drummers) the image of the drum in the logo looked like anything from a tambourine to an &#8220;industrial pipe&#8221;—pretty much anything but a (bird&#8217;s eye view of a) drum. Well, my longtime friend and drum tech Ryan Malaschak, creator of the original logo, has [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo: Doing my thing with FPM back in the Fall of 2007</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was just poking through iPhoto, and this photo caught my eye and triggered some very nice memories of days of yore. It&#8217;s just a simple fan-shot photo of me doing what I love—with, and for, people I love. I miss you and hope to see you all from the stage sooner than later. Thanks [...]]]></description>
