Why Rock Haus Redux?

Welcome!

About a million billion years ago, or 2002 as it's more commonly known, I started my first blog, The Rock Haus, so named after the name given to my crappy old apartment on Baltimore's Park Ave by my friend Louis, back at Art School. I took the blog down back around 2009. All sorts of crap was happening in my life and despite having dwindled to a daily readership of approximately 3, I decided I needed to insulate myself, and shuttered the windows at Rock Haus. Unfortunately, I lost the archive in what I call The Epic Reformatting Cock Up of 2013.

 Since taking the blog down I've made many false starts to blogging again. I miss it and I've come to realize that using social media sites such as Facebook as my personal record and timeline is just poor planning. Much like the old MySpace pages, they could be gone at any time, not to mention I'm more comfortable sharing here, on a blog that is my own and maybe isn't necessarily going to be seen by every assclown in a band I ever photographed, or the rest of the rabble of marginal acquaintances I seem to have gathered since involving myself in this foolishness, who tend to have opinions I care nothing about.

I've gone back and forth about what type of blog I want this to be. Should it be a photo blog? A cooking blog? A bitch at great length about how much I fucking hate those stupid bears in the Charmin ads blog? My answer to this, is all of the above. I plan to have an exclusively photo content blog linked off of my website at some point, but this isn't going to be it. This is going to be where I swear and tell secrets and post pictures of my cats...perhaps with some cooking and photography thrown in. 

So welcome. Have a seat, pour a drink for yourself, please step out on the patio if you're gonna smoke.
