Real simplification isn’t cutting down on your wardrobe. Wearing a turtle neck everyday isn’t going to turn you into Mark or Steve. Think bigger. The purpose of simplifying is really consolidation of resources. We each only...

“When It Was”I’m sitting at my table in my house listening to Oliver sing and thinking about how beautiful and hard our relationships with the people we love can be. You know that of course. Love and hurt are two sides of the...

It was awesome. So well executed. Tons of enthusiastic players. The whole first day I ate or drank nothing because of all the lovely people wanting to take Mules for a spin.  Found some time to eat some sushi and rent a...

Why a Mule Tomthumbucker for a pickup? Why not a piezo/magic ribbon/unicorn horn? A magnetic pickup will get you the most volume before feedback, important when the context is a cavernous steel chamber of awesome. It’s also...
