Hovindosaurus
Here's a little photo-skit I mashed together with a competition in mind. It features creationist Kent Hovind who is currently doing time with the real life Flintstones, I hope he's getting decent brain care at the same time.

A little comic that's been sitting on my notepad for some time.

Get your motor runnin'
I won't be playing at level lounge this Friday as I'm taking part in the Exiles 4th Annual Beach Party poker run and then playing an acoustic set at the party itself.
The party is open to everyone, bikers and non-bikers alike and the ticket (130Dhm) includes a barbeque buffet dinner, live music (moi and another guest singer), DJ, Mechanical bullriding, Sumo suit wrestling and a ticket for the raffle.
I will be back at Heroes later for the band's usual sets.

Here's a new graphic banner I made that's pretty self explanatory... if you know what a proxy server is. In short, they're used here as a way for the ISP (there's only one) to filter material they consider unsuitable from the internet. They also happen to be a pain in the arse if you're updating a website online.

Him indoors
Since the weather's turned a bit frosty (in Gulf terms) at the rooftop gig, I've been allowed back indoors on Friday afternoons to play in Heroes. There are no bean bags in the bar but the temperature is pleasant, the beverages are cheap and the atmosphere is extremely friendly.
You can once again heckle me with requests whilst munching your Friday brunch in comfort. That being said, I won't be there next week because...
Roadshow
I'm off on the Exiles' 7 Emirates ride next Friday, an annual event that sees a couple of hundred bikers cruising through all seven of the United Arab Emirates. We'll be staying over night in Dibba so I'm having my acoustic guitar taken along in a support vehicle and playing a set or two at the other end, courtesy of the Crowne Plaza who are sending me/letting me go.
The rest of The Placemats will be rocking out in Heroes as usual.
Here are some samples of my acoustic sets from The Lodge in Dubai in 2006. I try to cover as many styles and artists as possible so I can take requests from heavy rock to jazz.
