. . . looks a lot like Ezra.

Back in my garage building the tour kit.

It fell from the sky , like a dream.

taken from my spot on stage. .  you can see the ghost of Ken dashing.

Came home for a few days and found this green shit all over my yard.

Being home means doing chores.

memories.

After 9/11 a certain sadness hung over everything . .  everywhere - i think this was Canada.

A younger me, on tour with Cock Robin around 1989.

A few shots from recording with XTC at Ocean Way studio. here it looks like im doing percussion overdubs with Colin and Andy getting up close to audition their favorite jingles.

These shots are from tracking Thrak at Real world Studios. I was in a small stone room far removed from the rest of the band. In fact my tracking room was connected to the control room were Kronus Quartet were mixing so i had to keep my volume down.

This is a Gazebo behind the main Real World studios, its used for writing and rehearsing and was the spot i auditioned for Sylvian/Fripp back in 1993

Pencil frenzy - Robert writes those notes of pain and furry.

Tracking at Wire Studio in Austin. .  i think this was Willie Oteri record.  kind of a strange session: no material / all improvised, - I remember doing some cool stuff on the side kit with frame drum and big kick with  calfskin heads but was more like a Tom Waits durdge than a fusion beat that Willie could solo over.

A picture i took of Tony that was used for CG3+2 CD. .  later we decided we liked those glasses and each went back to take a photo wearing them.

I think Munyon must have taken this one. . .of  Trey and I. . . -dig my DJ coffin between us- forgot i used to have that. 

poptart or pop art ??   i used to hold crinkled lighting gels in front of my lens.

ahhhh xmass

Adrian shoes and belt- ready and waiting.

Artwork for the BPM&M record.

just outside the Venue in NYC.

A sign near the hotel in Jersey. . . WTF does it mean?

Something our crew posted backstage - i think it was in NYC were we have union stage hands. .  err clueless boobs.

ahhhh i'd know those stairs anywhere - thats the Hudson Hotel in NYC.

Was home for a few ice cold days. Thats me and Noe going for a walk.

Giving some noooogies to my buddy Bill Saragosa, Bill is the maker of those wild wielded percussion dodads.

Crim has great crews! - thats our  production FOH man Greg Dean directing things.

Backstage. Really.

Oh Canada~ Denis & Carol!

Tim Cain -- our light man and much much more.  Way back in the 90s i saw a fantastic show by the Residents that Tim did lights for.

My tec buddy Bill Munyon sure has a girly grip.

sad road life. .  even the treats aren't enough. . i like that i got Ade in the mirror.

Crimson road manager Mary Jo Kazca with Nik Beggss ( stick man with John Paul Jones).

Was a crazy backstage - in detroit i think. .  mmmm i wonder did  they spiked our punch.

outside my hotel window.

Terl , drummer with JPJ band --- sweet guy/strong player/ and can dance a jig while he plays bodhran.

Mean looking cow near our tour bus. .  i think this was Kansas City.

Paiste Ocheltree snare was waiting at sound check when i arrived. Thanks!!!!!

Y2Krim double duo with John Paul Jones band. this was backstage in Madison ( i know its crazy but i remember these dressing rooms and hall ways).

A Munyon shot- - - mmmm thansk Bill, so thats how we look.

one of my favorite Hotels, The Monaco in Denver. pets are allowed and if you didnt bring one they will supply your room a gold fish.

i dont remember where this hallway was. .  but remember being creep'ed out by it.

A cheerfull dressing room. . .oolalal-- i think this was backstage at Universal.

Adrian Belew holds a fashionable gift he was just given by a fan.

Had a day off and drove up into the mountains and spent time with my father.

Ken and John at Crimson rehearsal at SIR.

God Bless you guys.

John Paul Jones- taken from side stage behind my kit. i see my Ayotte snare.

Hanging with Ian while we were in Nashville. Ian is a remarkable guy  and it was such a joy to have had the time i spent with Ian.

ahh yes, this was the rehearsal when we tested setting up my drums stage left. .  i loved it!!! it lasted one gig. boo.

A day before heading out and that means solder those cables.

Folks think Robert sits. .  but as you can see he moves.

didnt take long after 9/11 for these jokes to start.

well would you????

i did.

I remember this. . it was the day the truck was coming to  pick up my gear. .  and the city had closed my street for pipe work. .  fuk.

On the days off between Crimson gigs i was doing CGT. .  took this shot some place in Salt Lake City while they were setting up with a real photographer.

Took me a while to figure this one out- Im onstage in San Antonio with TOOL jamming with Danny, im the little guy to the left (and to the left of me is a young drummer i brought) -  the shiny image above us is one of the naked silver acrobats.

Danny Carey and I . . .  may have been a few beers involved.

I don't how i got that shadow from T Lev,  but i like it.

messy.

On days off Munyon and i set up a studio.

Another photo i forgot i took that ive seen go around. This was Ade and Robert arriving at  Loco Lupes, our favorite Mexican resturaunt in Hermitage,. . .Monster Margarita!

more light gels. .  or am i getting ready to snatch a purse?
