hi.
I know I have not been active on my blog the past couple days. Just to recap what has been going on in my life well… This weekend was one of the better weekend I’ve had since I’ve been home. Nick and I went to see Kings Of Leon on Saturday. It was amazing. I can never get sick of that band. That was basically the highlight of my weekend. I also did some shopping for something I...
Obama
History was made today. I didn’t really realize how monumental this is until I watched all the inauguration coverage on CNN today. This is happening! Wow! We are all blessed to be apart of this. Don’t you just feel that for the first time ever you you know what the president is about and believe what he says?! I am not a politcal person by any means and I may not know what I’m...
Motorcycle
I took this photo because I really want a motorcycle. The only issue is that i have no clue how to ride them and you need a special license. Who am I kidding I will totally fail that test. Anyways I can always dream right? This summer I am thinking about getting a scooter but nick told me that it’s too “euro” and that I would get made fun of. Thing is he is totally right! So...
iPhoto #5
This picture was taken from the Chateau Marmot in LA during VMA weekend. It looks over Sunset Blvd and you can get that sweet iPod ad. We were asked to play a private party for Viacom executives. It was pretty nerve wrecking BUT fun because we got to hang with Fonzworth Bentley and Rev Run’s daughters.
iPhoto #4
Yup that’s the Eiffel Tower. That’s a lot of steel. Too much steel. Lame. I love you all.
1234 Video
This is our new video for our current single 1234. We shot a video for it already a while back and were not able to release it for reasons I won’t disclose at this time. Anyways Tom and our friend and videographer Mike Venezia went around Chicago and shot this video. All of it is very random and just happened on the fly. As much as I love the original video for this song I must admit Tom and...

iPhoto #3
The Picture below is of The Louvre. By the time i got there it was closed but I did a chance to get some photos. Anyways it was cool to see. Not a HUGE fan of Paris though. However I think it’s cool that I can say that I’ve been there like 5 times within 3 months.
iPhoto #2
The picture below is from a carnival we went to when we were in Luembourg. For some reason we had like 3 days off there. We had never been there before. Anyways its a great city. Very small and awesome. This carnival was cool. Not much different than carnivals and fairs we have here. Anyways I thought I lost these photos but they were just hidden in my iPhoto.

Visions of Rock
The other day I did a pretty horrible job of explaining the Nikon Live thing. So this is what I wrote at www.plainwhitets.com.
“A while back I took some photos for a campaign called Visions of Rock which happened to be sponsored by Nikon. They gave us a camera to shoot with and at the end of about a month I had to turn in 40 photos and they would pick the best. Well they picked 3 of my...
iPhoto
Last night I was looking through my iPhoto and realized I have so many pictures that only myself have seen. I have been blessed with the opportunity to travel the world and play music so I have a lot of pictures from different countries. I will post photos from my iPhoto everyday until I run out of photos. Then I’ll take more and more will go up. I figure someone should see these photos....
Trading Places
Yo I know I’m blogging a lot right now BUT I love this movie. One of my favorite Eddie Murphy performances. It was on the other night and it got in the way of me going to bed. Anyways it’s on again and of course I am watching it again. who needs sleep. Seriously.
Look at this fool.
The Films
About 2 years ago we toured almost every city in Germany with OKGo and a band known as the Films. They definitely have become one of my favorite bands. Touring with them was amazing. It was nothing like I’d ever seen before. These dudes had vibe! I know the word “cool” is so cliche or whatever but they were cool! Anyways The Films are from NYC and for some reason here in America...
Malin + Goetz
Me and Nick are obsessed with these 2 dudes. We both have their candles and yesterday I bought more stuff. It rules. I like things to smell good and my skin to look nice. That’s ok right? If you are like me then you should definitely check out this brand.

WatchThis thing is so good! Mike would appreciate this.
Bummer.
Apparently Metromix put us in the list of 20 other bands as one of the biggest flops in 08. In this strange way I don’t really care. Other artists in there include Madonna, Gym Class, Panic, Usher, Snoop Dogg, Nelly, Hinder, The Offspring, Janet Jackson, and I can’t remember the rest but I think you get the point. I feel honored that we even got put into a category with those artists....
