Video Blog - Epi 3

Sup homies? I have a food AND a wine video blog on standby, but I need to edit them... so I'm gonna post this guitar blog first. Like I said in this video blog, I will be posting three food and wine blogs before the end of July... and if I don't meet my deadline (though, I will), I will post three guitar blogs and IN ADDITION to the three food and wine blogs before I leave for Peru on August 13. Speaking of Peru, I plan on blogging during my adventures so don't miss out!

Okay, so I have to personally apologize for my horrendous singing in the Madonna blog, and though this video blog isn't going to be a million times better, at least I think the cringe factor will be less... i hope ;) I have been fighting a cold, as you will see in this vblog though =\ Oh, Blogspot only allows for 10 min videos now, and the total time is 12 min... SO I had to split the two up. Enjoy my novice guitar/singing skills (if you're on FB, click on "View original post" to watch). Oh, and don't forget to turn off Michael Jackson in the previous blog on the left hand side of the media player:

Epi 3 - Part 1:


Epi 3 - Part 2 (yes, this is a new one... i'm still congested, but at least you can hear me better in this one. Turn up the volume on this one too though):



Here is some 411 from this blog:

1. Slow Club in Outer Mission on Mariposa and Potrero.

2. Chateau Puy Bardens 2002

3. Bordeaux - Region in Southwest France that produces some of the most expensive (and some would argue most elegant too) wines in France/the world. The region mostly produces red juice, but one of the most famous dessert wines made out of white juice (Chateau d'Yquem - pronounced dee-chem like chemistry) hails from this region too. Red Bordeaux blends are mainly composed from Cab (Cabernet Sauvignon) and Merlot, and sometimes Cab Franc. Though, Malbec and Petite Verdot can also be used in a Bordeaux blend. Ahh, there is so much to write about Bordeaux, and I don't know where to end. Next time I will talk about the rivers in Bordeaux and what kinds of grapes grow on which side of the river (Left Bank v. Right Bank Bordeaux). Btw, Bordeauxs aren't JUST poo stinky. The barnyard element is just one of the many characteristics that add to the complexity of the wine. ;)

4. Hands to Heaven by Breathe originally, then covered by Christian Bautista, and Ja'a... oh, and now me haha. My fav is the Ja'a version :)

5. What I meant to say is since it's my birthday month, I want to spend it volunteering since I've been feeling like a deadbeat citizen lately. My volunteer calendar is below (yes, two blogs in ONE day!). JOIN ME IN MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN THIS WORLD. PLEASEEEE?
