I'm trying to get the final count for the big shindig on Saturday. If you haven't yet confirmed your RSVP, please do so by Friday, as I'll be doing all the shopping for food and junk that day. If you didn't get an invite and want one, just let me know! Also, don't forget about the wish list here: http://d-rosetta.livejournal.com/88831.html.

Birthday Party Stuff!

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 20:54:56 GMT

Well, Halloween and November are dawning upon us ever quickly. It’s nigh about time I got to getting the info out for my 9th Annual Birthday Bash. Please see the details below as well as a “wish list” behind the cut.

David Baumiller’s 9th Annual Halloween Birthday Bash!
Saturday November 7, 2009
6:00pm-Sunday Morning
Location: My House

As always costumes are optional but encouraged
All food and drink will be provided. All you need bring is yourself!
Bringing guests is okay as long as you let me know ahead of time
Please RSVP with your total number before the party so I can have an accurate head-count for food
RSVP by phone or email: david.baumiller@yahoo.com

Entertainment will include:
Me destroying Nick W. in the alphabet game… as usual
Possible other “Mud Show Games”
The Pens vs. The Sharks at 10:30pm
Me getting drunk and acting like an idiot

As always, I’d like to stress that I do not expect to receive any gifts, but you all always ask for a wish list anyway, so here it is:

-The first thing I want this year is a #25 away (white) Penguins jersey that says “SUPERSTAR” instead of TALBOT. I’ve already asked everyone I know for this so I’d ask around if you were thinking of shelling out the loads of money it would take to buy this.

-Blue Jeans, khakis or dress slacks. Size 34x34, loose fit

-Button down or polo shirts that would fall under the heading “Business casual”. I don’t know my neck size so… average I guess?

-Wii games. I already own Wii Sports, Wii Play, Twilight Princess, Okami, Raging Rabbits 2, and Mario Galaxy. Anything else would be fine!

-Nintendo DS Games. I own Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass, Final Fantasy III, Chrono Trigger, Brain Games, and Nintendogs.

-Baking Supplies. I especially need a large mixing bowl and some good knives for cutting vegetables and fruit. A shop-chop wouldn’t be bad either!

-I’d like to stress that I do NOT need any more T-shirts. My shirt drawer is overflowing already!

-I would, however, like a 2009 Stanley Cup Champs ball cap

-An electric beard and mustache trimmer

-Books. I can’t think of anything in particular that I would like right now. I’ve heard some good things about the Wheel of Time series and I don’t have any of those yet. I also like books about medieval/European history. The barbarian tribes fascinate me!

-Movies. Again, can’t think of anything in particular that I want right now. You all know what I like! You can check with Shelly to see if we already own.

-CD's:
-Any Electric Six album (I already have Fire)
-Anything by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum
-"California" and "Disco Volante" by Mr. Bungle
-"Album of the Year" by Faith No More
-"Deth Album 2" by Dethklok
-"April" by VAST
-A "Best of" collection for Chicago or The Carpenters

Okay, now here’s the deal. In order to try to avoid too many repeat gifts, what I’d like everyone to do is to comment on this post letting everyone else know what you are getting. I am turning off email notifications and I promise not to read the comments to see what you are getting me. In short, I won’t see it but everyone else will. If you don’t have a Livejournal account, you can still post anonymously. Just click on “Post Comment” down below here and let everyone know who you are and what you are getting. As always, thank you all so much! I love you all!

Next show

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:48:17 GMT

So my band JUST got added a show next Saturday, Oct 24. I don't know a whole lot about it yet except: It's a cancer research benefit dealio, it's outdoors (in late October, I know!), and we're going on at 1pm. I'll give you the rest of the deets (that's awesome talk to details, people) as I get them. I hope some of yinz can make it!

So I'm thinking of having the birthday shindig this year on either Friday Nov 6 or Saturday Nov 7. Would either of those days work better than the other for anyone? Your votes will be collected and counted by the state of Florida.

So I just found out I have an interview for a promotion tomorrow morning. I am here late tonight and this won't leave me any time to get my hair cut. I seriously hope that doesn't hurt my chances. I kinda wanted to have long hair still for the trip to Ren Fest on Sunday anyways.

Speaking of, Shells and I are going to Ren Fest this Sunday to celebrate Oktoberfest. Anyone looking to come along is welcome to do so. I'm so happy it's October now! I love everything about this month, but most especially the start of the NHL season. This Friday we hang that banner at the Mellon. WOO!

Are you getting chills?

We have a second song up now on our MySpace. I'm VERY happy with the way "Yiffing in the Lake" turned out. It's mostly an Oldies/Do-Wop style songs with some Pattonesque vocals. I urge you all to check it out: myspace.com/toostupidtodie

First song is up!

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 19:47:59 GMT

Our first basement recording is up on the myspace. It's called "Patches". We will have the second up very soon once it is done being mixed. For being recorded in a basement on a laptop, it's not that bad of quality. Please do check it out and don't forget about our live show at the Rex on Sept 5!

I want you to dig. Dig deep now.

Hi Everyone,

I am participating in a charity walk with my company that benefits Junior Diabetes. If you wish to sponsor me, you can do so online here. The walk is Saturday Sept 12 at 10:00am in Schenley Park in Oakland. I'm hoping to raise at least $40 by then. More is always great as well! Thank you all for your consideration!

Another humble request

Thu, 13 Aug 2009 16:48:24 GMT

I have the tickets for my band's next show. It is Saturday September 5, 6:30pm at the Rex Theather in South Side. Advance tickets are $10. It'll be $15 at the door. There will be 5 other fantastic bands playing plus plenty of drink specials so you'll definitely get your money's worth! Please let me know if you are interested and I will come see you to get you a ticket. You know how to reach me!

I CAN SEE FOREVER!

I'm usually a decaf guy. But for some reason I had trouble sleeping this night, so I was feeling particularly drowsy today at work. One of my bosses, Walter, offered me a drink. It was his own special blend. Basically a cup of regular coffee with a chai tea bag and a couple creamers. I usually drink no caffeine and this has triple the caffeine of a regular cup of tea.

MY EYELIDS WON'T CLOSE! I CAN SEE JESUS' EYES! AAAAAH!!!!

I'm not looking forward to the crash from this later on. And the last think I want to do right now is answer emails.

Premier show in 1 week

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 13:57:22 GMT

Hey everyone. Just wanted to remind everyone reading this in the Pittsburgh area, that my band Too Stupid to Die has our first live show in exactly one week's time. It'll be at the VFW in South Side, which is adjacent to the Giant Eagle down there. Show begins at 9:30pm, there is a $5 cover and there will be plenty of drink specials.

I'd really love it if I could get a TON of people there for our first show. We promise to have a little something for everyone, and even if the music doesn't grab you, you'll be entertained by our stage antics. Seriously, I have no idea what Albert is planning on doing. So, hope to see most of ya there!

Hangover

Upcoming show

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 17:35:32 GMT

For all those in the Pittsburgh area: The band that me and my close friend Albert have been working on, Too Stupid to Die, is playing our first show on Friday July, 10 at the VFW in South Side. Albert tells me it is right next to the South Side Giant Eagle. Cover is $5 and there will be some really cheap drink specials. I believe the show starts at 9:30.

I would really appreciate as much support as I can get from everyone as it has been a REALLY long time since I've played live at all. I'm not sure what the other bands are like, but I can give you a quick description of our sound. We're pretty much right in the middle of Faith No More and Mr. Bungle. At the very least, I promise you an entertaining stage show. Hope you can make it out!
