Playing the Grand

One of the best things in life is playing the piano. There is nothing like it in the world! Although it fun to just sit down and play whatever I am in the mood to play, being able to play the piano and just "jam" away at the keys was not a talent that I accomplished in one night. I have been playing piano since I was 6 years of age. I  feel every person should have the opportunity to learn to play a musical instrument.

I admit it wasn't always fun to play. When I first started playing or rather I should say learning to play, it was absolutely tiring and as child, quite draining. But after several years of playing, the songs became fun to play and as time when by, it became rather fun to just sit down and start playing a song cause well, I could actually sit and play something that I would enjoy playing. Now, I can listen to a song and within little time at all I can roughly figure out how to play the song. 

I think the best feeling though is being to play what I want to play. When I started learning, I couldn't play just any song cause I didn't know how to play any song. How could I hope to play a song I really liked if I couldn't even play something I needed to learn? 

Practicing and constant practice was necessary to develop the skill and talent of playing music. Once I mastered enough songs and skills to understand music, I was able to pick up on other songs and now, playing piano is only fun fun fun! Actually I can't really say it's pure fun cause I still do has to practice. But, the practice is fun now! 

The Color Gray

This is one of my favorite outfits right now. This picture was taken by one of my friends while we were in an elevator heading out for a drink. Those clothes I am wearing all are gray or have a hint of gray on them, hence the title of the blog. Gray is one of my favorite colors. As boring and uninteresting to some the color maybe, to me it is quite the color to take interest in! Because of it's neutrality and versatility, gray can function in almost any use for attire. This same outfit I wore for an interview once. I have also worn it for outings like the one I went to after this picture was taken. I have also worn it casually while shopping or doing my regular day to day errands. 

Below is a link to a blog that contines to divulge in the awesome color power of gray.

The clothing I am featuring in this blog are also affordable in price. The button down shirt is designed by Eighty Eight. I can't seem to locate a designer who makes them which really is a bit frustrating considering how much I enjoy wearing this shirt.

You can find the shirt at Kohl's, Sears, Ross, and I am sure plenty of other stores carry Eighty Eight Button-down Shirts. 

The pants are designed by Paper Denim & Cloth. Below is there website so you can see all their clothing options and variety of clothes made with denim.

The pants I have match perfectly with the outfit I have on. Even though they aren't directly gray in color. Their dark bluish gray tone make it a great choice with the rest of the clothes I am wearing. 

The Arider shoes I am wearing are also nicely priced and can be purchased at many stores like Overstock.com, Buycheapr.com and Shoebuy.com. The pair I am wearing I got in Downtown Los Angeles in Santee Alley. 

I love the outfit and how all the clothes I am wearing go together. Love Arider, Eighty Eight and PD&C jeans! They all make a great combo! 

Alejandro Ingelmo Shoes

 

Alejandro Ingelmo Shoes!

These are my newest shoes! I feel like the sexiest guy alive when I wear them. The reason why I bought them was that I was looking for some new clothes for my first official performance in Vegas. My band was invited to perform at Tommy Rockers and I wanted to wear something nice and flashy. I don't consider myself a fashion buff or a fashionista to say much about what is trending or what is hot, but I remember passing by this store in the Beverly Center which happened to carry some of the coolest shoes I have ever seen. I had a whole outfit lined up and all I needed now was some shoes. I couldn't find anything for shoes of what I wanted. Everything looked sorta bland and nothing caught my eye so I decided to make the trip to check out the store whose name I know now to be Politix. Below is a link to the store's website.

In there I saw some of the coolest articles of clothing ever! The price range was a bit steep for my normal spending money but and I was a bit hesitant at first but when I saw these shoes I was captivated! They shined all over of an orangish, redish yellow color from the angle the shoe reflected the light. When I found out they only had one pair that was my size left I had to stop only for a minute to decide that they shoes had to be mine! I needed them in my life!
The designer of the shoe who happens to be the first fashion or clothing designer I ever have blogged about is Alejandro Ingelmo who designs both shoes for women and men. Below is a link to his website where I am already browsing for the next pair of shoes I want.

Thank you Alejandro Ingelmo! These shoes are amazing. I feel like a king wearing them all over LA.

My Versace Jacket

I finally decided to share a picture of me am my Versace jacket. Considering how much it was and how cool and awesome it looks, I don't wear it as often as I should or could! 

The filters I used are from this cool app I recently discovered called "Afterlight." 

The Consequences of Having too Much Fun!

I was swinging. I was jumping. I was climbing trees too. And then I fell. 

I use this real cool app called "Frametastic" for iPhone that allows me to put several pictures together like the image above. Combined with the meme maker app called "Meme Design," I can put phrases or sentences in the pictures as well. I haven't made any recent comic or pictures like this but I'll have to share them with you.

First Keyboard Pictures

Just some pictures from one of my first photo shoots in Los Angeles. I just recently moved to LA when I had these pictures taken.  I just was beginning the big journey of music an composing for the big screen an still had so much to learn about how much hard work it would take to make these big dreams come true! 

This is also during the time where I had the opportunity to compose for the first film I made music for the documentary short, the "Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher."

Performing at the House of Blues

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to perform at the House of Blues with the band I am in. Our lead singer is Morgan Mascorro. We call ourselves "Morgan and the Minx." I play the piano in out group. Being in a band again has made me feel like I am part of a team again. It's quite a lot of work to be caring an 88 keyboard around but it's worth the fun and hot of performing for people. This was our second performance live. I can't believe we had the opportunity to perform there. It was my first time at the House of Blues and I never knew it was that big! I have only seen it driving by on Sunset Blvd but never realized how many floors it had and how many rooms it had. Can't wait to perform there again soon!
