Clarity is a talent and I am glad my friend Matthew Thielker (great guy, he is a vegan, an animal lover and he runs a local cat shelter) brought this idea into an artwork.

According to the band:

You can now order the hard copy, pop-up and all, (as well as a digital copy) online! 🙂 For the indie-go-goers, we still have some mailing to do as soon as we get back from tour, and that will be happening next week. Thank you for your patience! http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/thebombadils

On planting Shamrocks and Being Passionate

Passion comes in many forms. Blogging is a passion. Collecting records of Irish bands is a passion,playing an instrument, going to concerts, planting shamrocks-oh boy I could think of hundreds of lists.

I have been growing a shrub known as purple leaf shamrock (Oxalis triangularis ). Actually it is not hard to grow.It doesn’t require such high maintenance.  I tell you there is this phase in it’s cycle that’s truly weird.

It sort of dies on you. It looses it’s leaves. But don’t you panic. All you need to do is keep it and it will grow back after a week or two. I am posting a picture here so you will see it.
