Som Forte: February 2009
http://jeremysomforte.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Friday, February 27, 2009. The big desfiles of 2009 Carnaval have been decided, and the Blocos are still rolling through the streets. Salgueiro won the Grupo Especial! I'm really, really happy because I really like Salgueiro, and I loved their Enredo and Samba this year. They had a really impressive parade, with an ala of guys playing Maculelê and an ala playing atabaques on rolling stands. I think I read somewhere that they may have been from Timbalada? This also...

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Assiste Globo e mais na rede/Watch Globo and more on the Internet. Quero postar mais nesse blog, mas falto tempo. Eu estava muito ocupado com o meu emprego e tocando e dancando tambem! Começava muitos amizades muitos boms e falava muito Portugues nas semanas passadas. Então, quero lhes dar uma riqueza pra melhorar os seus habilidades com o Portugues tambem. Quem fala Portugues disfruta vida mais! TV Globo on the internet.

Som Forte: October 2008

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Wednesday, October 29, 2008. All the 2009 Sambas are out! Actually, some of them have been out for quite a while now, but that's kinda beside the point. I really love Samba Enredo, there's something about it that really grabs me. It's just fits with the kind of person I am when it comes to music: bigger, louder, more produced/arranged/whatever. I really love Mangueira's Samba this time around (last year it was Mocidade and Salgueiro for me). O branco aqui chegou.

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Thursday, March 19, 2009. In Brazil, many of the Baterias of the Escolas de Samba have 1 or 2 cymbal players at the very front of the Bateria! I haven't come across this in the US yet, which is very sad. Can anyone teach me to play Samba cymbals? Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Assiste Globo e mais na rede/Watch Globo and more on the Internet. Quero postar mais nesse blog, mas falto tempo. Eu estava muito ocupado com o meu emprego e tocando e dancando tambem! The site is...

Playing in the gravity fields. Thursday, September 6, 2012. Karma's too slow, that's why we need Dharma. Karma's too slow, that's why we need Dharma.". I love this line, its so true. I thought I heard it in a movie; I am surprised that Google can't find it. A tibetan teacher who has helped me on my path, Khenpo Choga, has the clearest definition of Dharma I have ever heard.

Playing in the gravity fields: Finally Snowing again!
http://gravityfields.blogspot.com/2010/01/finally-snowing-again.html
Playing in the gravity fields. Friday, January 22, 2010. I may actually get out tomorrow- its finally dumping again in the Wasatch! Somehow didn't keep up the blog during kayaking season, which can continue all winter if you want, especially in the PNW. Below, look at those rocks! Crazy Larrys, down to the Scary Larrys entrance. Super quality, a 53 to 54 degree sustained section. I did that line twice last year, and once the year before. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Samba kat's Rio Stories.

Playing in the gravity fields. Friday, April 25, 2008. Mt Ogden's Southeast chutes. Anyway, today the Porcupine chair was closed :-(, so after a warmup run, I did a hike up the Needles bowl, veering right to the start of the huge cornice line over the middle Needles cirque. The wind was nuking! Then some nice untracked wind-hammered powder, but too short. riding up the Needles, to my surprise I saw that there were tracks in one of those East chutes! There is a traversing entrance to the "tower" shot, tha...

Playing in the gravity fields. Saturday, February 6, 2010. Finally got up to Snowbasin again today! Some fresh snow made for great conditions, although lingering avalanche concerns dictated cautious cuts, rather than letting it rip. Above, untracked just 5 minutes from the top of the tram.

Playing in the gravity fields. Wednesday, March 18, 2009. Got out to the Ogden Kayak Park at 24th street yesterday; the Weber river is coming up! 600 cfs, and icy cold. Gates have recently been installed here, they are cool! I'd rather be snowboarding powder, but the paddling is fun too. I managed a couple spins in the top hole, and hit all my rolls; ice-cream headaches though. Sunday, March 15, 2009. March 2009 - The Snowbasin backcountry. Click on the photos to enlarge.).
