NVD - Myeloma

Just a quick note to alert you to the blog of a friend of mine. His name is Nick Van Dyk, and he has accomplished a great deal in his short life. One such accomplishment involves being a pretty cool prog-metal musician.

Anyway, I read his blog from start to finish this week. It contains an amazing story of perseverance and success, and I highly recommend it to all of you. I also recommend his music very highly, but only to those of you who appreciate metal music. :)

Wooooo Live Music

Hi everyone. If you're in the neighborhood (and why wouldn't you be?), you should drop in on the Bytown Tavern Saturday night at 9pm to see everyone's "favorite" singer/songwriter/player of guitar solos perform a 45-minute solo acoustic set as the opening act for Ottawa's incomparable originals/covers band Rocket Lounge (www.rocketlounge.net). You'll hear all your favorite Ryan standards along with a few select covers from the icy depths of the back of my brain.

See you there (right?).
