		<description><![CDATA[I think it is very important, in such a small music market such as Denver to share positive experiences.  I have had really good experiences working with Mark over at Tenoriowerx.
He has saved me a couple of times, and really takes a lot of time to work with each client to not only understand what [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been meaning to post an update to the original article for a while.  The constant buzz of a humbucking pickup, coupled with dirty power at bar after bar led me to rethink my amplification setup.  That, and when playing the upright slap style I had a tendency to hit the exposed poles on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is so rare that I stumble upon a Jazz album that makes my jaw hang open, slightly askew.  The Watts album is one of those.  Aside from the heavy hitting lineup throwing down some of the best Jazz I have heard in a while&#8211;the audio production on this album is absolute perfection.  Every nuance [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I made the decision to leave the band I have been in for about the last year: Hellbound Billy.  My last show was on May 23rd.  It was a hard decision, but what it came down to was that I don&#8217;t want to travel, and if you are going to have a successful rock band&#8211;you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I saw that people were using the drumkit from rockband to create drumkits for use with garageband.  Well I wanted to do this with logic, and I wanted a full kit&#8211;so I got a couple of rockband kits for the Wii (about $30 each) and set it up.  It was pretty easy.  Here is what [...]]]></description>

A little about the bass you will hear on the tracks: it is a 1950&#8217;s Karl Knilling made in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently started playing in a punk/psychobilly band.  Playing punk on an upright is hard, and I haven&#8217;t quite nailed down the slap technique.  But the hardest and most expensive part was dealing with feedback.  When I joined the band I had to use my Ergo electric upright that I bought for night practicing just [...]]]></description>

With a couple of computer programs you can get access to an entire fakebook worth of musical accompaniment, change the key at will, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here is a cool group, consisting of flute player Greg Pattillo, bass player Peter Seymour, and cellist Eric Stephenson.  They combine Jazz, Classical and other styles to form a very unique sound.  I wouldn&#8217;t call it fusion, because that has a negative connotation to most Jazz fans&#8211;perhaps a better term is an amalgamation.
