- Raising the dead
A week ago, something very interesting happened. Tony, who works with/for A Beautiful Question, a design and development company owned and operator by my long time friend James Welsh, came down stairs from the office they rent here in my building and started asking questions about The Beer Repository.
- Just thinking about recording
It has been a goal for the band to record in Nashville. My brother-in-law went to school in Nashville for music business and is now getting himself established in the highly competitive world of recording in the most competitive city in the country. This all means that we have the opportunity to go record for much less [...]
- G.A.S.
If you are a musician, then you either have G.A.S. or you know someone who does. For those who don’t know, G.A.S. is a chronic disease that has plagued the music world for decades. It targets the wallet specifically. G.A.S., or Gear Acquisition Syndrome, can only be cured by, you guessed it, acquiring more gear.
I have [...]
- Playing for the masses
If you have been reading this blog, and just let me say thank you so much, you know I have had some shows with Training Wheel Fire which then became, simply, Tyler Bender. Well I am thrilled to say that I am now the permanent bassist for Tyler Bender. The bass player I [...]

Ok so I did my usual drop off the face of the blogging earth thing and haven’t posted in a long time, but a lot has been going on. Big news today, more to follow.

- Post Gig Wrap Up
Well this past Friday I got to play my first gig in a long time. I think the last time I had a gig was when I was in my second year at Ball State. Our short lived career back then consisted of two shows and neither one went well. This time however, the band [...]

- Updated Reel
I just uploaded a new version of my reel to video.ryanbillingsley.com. Give it a look and let me know what you think in the comments.
Also on a different note, I will be playing with Tyler Bender at Doc’s in Muncie on April 4th so if you are around, come check it out.
- Mustache culture is pretty cool
I think it is crazy how much video is now available for free or semi-free on the internet.
I was checking out Hulu today and watching some Family Guy and making a fool out of myself by laughing because this show cracks me up. It really isn’t as bad as I thought it [...]
- Ugh
Well obviously I didn’t make the posting every day goal I had set. I got sick this week and didn’t even want to look at a computer because it made me dizzy. I am finally getting back on my feet, so hopefully I will be able to get back into the swing of [...]
