Music: 2 shows in San Diego this weekend

Most people who know me, know that I've had/been in a folk/pop ukulele band called Waste of Aces for a long time now. I kind of think of it as my 'ongoing music project.' It's usually a band that doesn't get to perform live very much; this is due to the fascinating but highly erratic life of our lead singer, Jeff, who right now is living in Hawaii and working aboard a cruise ship...but that's another story.

Well, with Jeff being unavailable for shows and all, what I usually do is go play with other bands to fulfill my playing in public needs. Most people don't know that I have a serious desire to make an ass of myself on a stage with 3-5 other people. Well, ok, that's unfair, usually we're pretty darn good. In light of this whole thing, I'm going to start posting dates/loctations/links/showtimes of the bands I am playing with, in hopes that someone is actually interested.

And the first is.....Zen Boy and Karma Girl (click on image), a modern folk-rock group. We will be playing in San Diego at a couple of coffee houses, this Friday and Saturday. And yes, I did the picture for them. =) The info:
