Kaki King at the Ferst Center for the Arts
We are never short on ideas for “cool” projects to work on. Whether those ideas can actually pay the bills is another matter though. We were fortunate recently to work on a “real” project that is reminiscent of something we’d dream up. Kaki King, a Brooklyn, NY based composer and musician, who is known for […]
When The Sex Pistols Came to Town, Part 2: San Francisco
I’ve been a listener, collector and player of music for decades. Like most people, I have distinct phases of fandom that have come and gone over the years. One in particular is a love of punk rock. That flame still burns hot. Not surprisingly, I’ve listened to the Sex Pistols quite a bit and it […]
When The Sex Pistols Came to Town, Part 1: Atlanta
On January 5th 1978 the Sex Pistols played their first show in the US, in Atlanta. And on Jan 14th they played their last show at San Francisco, California’s Winterland Ballroom. It just so happens that the first and last shows of that brief and meteoric tour are the two locations of Mixed Bag Media, […]
Curiosity Does Not Necessarily Lead to the Death of Felines
I love to learn new things – you could even say that I’m a naturally curious person (if you’re given to making those kinds of statements). And believe me when I tell you, that trait comes in handy as a video producer, especially making the kinds of videos we make at Mixed Bag Media. Curiosity […]

Atlanta Ballet’s New Vision

Riding the airwaves of 90.5fm
Last Saturday, my wife and I made our annual trip back to Athens, GA to enjoy alumni weekend at our alma mater radio station, WUOG, 90.5fm. We both were on-air DJ’s during our college years and are always anxious to get back in the booth and play music for the masses. There is great pleasure […]
Bring your dog to work day
After waiting for far too long, I decided to finally bring my dog into work today. His name is Bingo and he’s a flat-coated retriever mix who is very sweet and gentle. He already is spending time with each of the three people in today; he’s a people person, what can I say! We were […]
