In the attempt to fulfill a
lifelong dream... ok...
maybe a dream since I
was 15.... I've always
wanted to play
Depeche Mode music
in front of the Masses...

Well, after Lilac left,
and I had my own
Phylum project under
control, I found an
opportunity in May of
2006  to play with
others and combine my
love of electronic
music, with my love of
Depeche Mode.

Hence my place within
the Depeche Mode
tribute
band...Blasphemous
Rumours.

For the first show... it
went really well... 154
people showed up!
I'm sporting the E-mu...ok...
it's not an Emulator II...but it
has the essential "DM"  
sound engine...

Notice the "orange"
Chordata sticker on the
right side of the Apex...

Our first band pic...

Mark, Andy, and
myself on the far
<<<< right...

I made a friend that
night...Donna>>>>>>>


The room had a nice
vibe in the "pic" to
the left below.

To the lower right...I
live the sequenced
dream...
<<<< When I
see "pix" like
this one I often
wonder what
was I thinking?

It looks like a  
combination of
Bella Lugosi
meets Ross
Perot...but
doesn't the
E-mu look
nice...
