Food:A can of Hy Top brand potatoes. Topped with Tapatio hot sauce. The tea was Brooke Bond Taj Mahal.
I love potatoes. I even have an Idaho state potato tag on one of the vehicles. Here's someone else's:
G&LI did a lunch report week years ago with Leo Fender patents. In this GbL 2.0 era, it's easier. I'll just send you to some pages that Craig must have dropped a bunch of time into. Great stuff (thanks). Here's the patent collection:

http://www.guitarsbyleo.com/GALLERY2/ma ... temId=5597Projects, projects, projectsI've been working on a project with my friend Matt Long in Lawrence, Kansas since 2008. It's called "Traveler". He does all the music, I do all the Lyrics. All the demos are done. All the lyrics are written (hopefully). 15 songs, 3 characters with 4 voices (?!). It's big. Songs currently range in length from about a minute to one over 10 minutes. It's a concept album with a story end-to-end. I classify it as a "Rock Tragedy". The main character does die twice, after all.
Two of the tracks on "Traveler" are instrumentals. Here's "Gone" ( (c)2008-2010 Matt Long, Brock Frazier ):
http://rickshawseason.com/MP3/gone.mp3Writing instrumentals from a lyricists perspective sounds easy. It can be, and was here. There's two instrumentals in "Traveler". I placed them in the work as I was writing everything. The instructions for "Gone" were "A musical journey to the great beyond". Traveler will be completed later this year, or more likely in 2011.
RickshawI still have my Chinese rickshaw, but I added a Main Street Pedicab earlier this year. It's the BMW of rickshaws. Here's an early look at my new (to me) ride:

Here's the blog entry with that:
http://www.rickshawseason.com/main-street-pedicab/I can't compare the two rides to bicycles, because a Huffy is much nicer than the rickshaw is. The Main Street is very capable, and very expensive new at $3400. Mine all beat up was $670. By the way, a Pedicab is just a really nice Rickshaw.
Anyone else have a three wheel ride?
More tomorrow.
