Why Would I Write

  • GIG #82: A not so triumphant return/dust off that guitar

    It’s been awhile. I’ll admit it. I actually wanted to get back into performing much earlier this year, but due to me being lazy and/or tied up with work/life/Dota – it’s taken quite some time. Anyway, enough excuses. So check it – I’ll be playing my first show in a long time tomorrow. And yes, I’ll be unveiling new songs. Hopefully they are worth the wait. So, do make your way over to Barlai tomorrow. I’ll try to make it worth your while.
    I promise.
    If not, there are tons more other acts you can listen to.
    Spread the word! Bring your friends! I hope you see you guys tomorrow.

    The Barlai Open Mic is a brand spankin’ new biweekly open mic night which happens on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month. Sign up by dropping us a message on the wall below or emailing us at shaneil.devaser@me.com

  • Starker (this post contains a lot of Wikipedia links)

    Remember that bar, Overtime? The beer which served this overpriced, German-branded, beer called ‘Starker’?
    I recently discovered that it wasn’t so German after all.

  • Life Tax

    Sometimes life hits you hard.
    Then you take the blow like Dorothy Gale.
    And fly away.
    End up somewhere magical.
    Or plummet to the ground.
    RIP in peace old wheels and savings.
    It’s time to rebuild.
