Really the best advice I could give is to ask questions that haven't been asked in recent interviews already. Recent as in the last year about the whole getting clean 4 albums thing. Everyone has asked that.

EDIT:*JUST LOOK THE OTHER WAY KIDS!*

Is Dev doing acoustic one-off appearances or something?

I asked him where he's at with the next 2 CDs (and he gave a great and hilarious break-down of Deconstruction and Ghost), but I overheard people there saying they'd never heard him before but had heard of him, so i thought it was a good question to ask for the benefit of that particular crowd of possibly influential music industry folk. If it was a crowd solely made up of fans I'd have asked him something FAR more geeky, hehe.

Cool to see you too! I was on my way up to the front to say hi to Devin (and when I realised you were there I was gonna chat with you too) but when I realised people were already coming in for the next performance I thought I'd better get outta there and go to my next appointment. Having a great time in the states, and it seems everyone knows my site now so it's been really cool.

I agonized over whether I'd have time to go see Dev tomorrow - saw Trev Lukather and Steel Panther at the same venue last week and it was awesome - but it's the one night I can go to Disneyland while I'm here, and I'm travelling with my partner and son so they've done the Disneyland thing without me while I've been at NAMM, and I really want to check Disneyland out with them and see what I've been missing while they hang out with Goofy (instead of hang out with me, who IS goofy). But I'm seeing Dev's full-length set in Melbourne in March. :guitar:

Kitten hands down. Grilled on the barbecue or roasted in the oven. Add lots of sweet barbecue sauce... Hmmmm....

If you have several, joint them, dust with flour and sear quickly, then casserole them slowly in cider with some root veg, stock and a slug of calvados, finished with some light cream for the last 20 minutes.


I've known long-term vegetarians repent after sampling that dish.

It was fucking amazing btw. I'll do a full write-up after tonight's show.

Devin 209 is awesome for getting me in the studio, there was literally just the two of us, the recording crew and Dev.

I've always thought cat would be nicer than dog. Like, dog probably tastes doggy. Like linen that's never been cleaned.
