Apart from too much video gaming and TV I do mostly music stuff. I play bass (like half the people on here it seems).

My last band is here.

MySpace.com - Brown Ranch - SANTA ROSA, California - Indie / Experimental / Post punk - www.myspace.com/brownranchband

The new band is still putting together a set.

Here's my current rig with some fat bloke taking up space in the shot.

I also built a small two room recording studio a few years back where my last band recorded the songs on the MySpace page. Right now it has home brew in it.

I also straighten sheet metal on my buddies dirt track race car. This is the old car.

I fish once a year these days, love taking my kids to see local bands, run the soundboard at church, don't cook as often as I used too, neglect my SWMBO terribly, not to mention the dog. I just don't have time for softball anymore!
 
I'm involved with the local 1880's Vintage Recreation Base Ball Club, I'm one of the teams "Tally Keepers." And probably next season I will train as ref. We wear period clothing. Here's a pic from a recent newspaper article. If you squint, I'm the guy in the huge straw hat sitting at the table with the checkered table cloth to the left of the bat barrel.

That is quite possibly one of the coolest things I've ever seen! I just sent a link to vbba.org over to my buddy. Thanks Revvy!
 
I never played the bass, used to beat the drums, now i drink and play with guns. I had no intention of rhyming this, must be the magic of drunk...
 
Drinking beer and playing with guns.
Two things not to do at once.

And they let me write lyrics, some of them are as good as that. Oh yeah baby! :rockin:
 
I play bass a little bit.
I like to mod my car (when I have the money to do it)
I really like to go on sunday drives out in the country (even if I'm doing 80 in the twisties)
fish when I get the chance
boogie board (and occasionally try to surf) emphasis on the try.
but it seems most of my time is taken up by school at the moment.
 
Travel (especially road-tripping really long distances) and Photography. Also: spending way to much money on lenses, hiking gear, and brewing supplies/gear.

I used to travel in persuit of breweries and beer festivities, lately I travel to places just to take photos :-D I'm very close to actually making some side money off of it, which I am excited about.

I also like designing beer lables, reading, hiking, cooking, and...finding new hobbies. I want to start making soap and cheese.
I would post pics but work has all pic-hosting on lookdown, maybe later :)

I also SCUBA dive, ski, snowboard and drink copious amounts of beer.
 
I'm into travel photography:

And an unusual hobby... I love the pipe organ:

I collect classical organ CDs, and I was a church organist in high school. I haven't played in years. It's not an instrument that fits in your house easily! :cross:
 
If you are ever near Atlanta, swing by the Fox Theatre and check out The Mighty Mo, in case you haven't already...

Nice. I have heard recordings made on that beast, but never seen it, I've only been to Atlanta once and that was just passing through...

The Wanamaker (world's largest functioning) is on the list too, in Philly...

Maybe I could do a photo tour and pub crawl, and get all my hobbies in together in one trip. :p

My wife is an organist in her spare time. She has, at various times, been the interim organist at our church.

She actually studied the organ for a year after doing her undergrad work. She apprenticed at the National Cathedral in DC. She's quite good, but I'm biased.:D
 
tournament catfish
fishing all together
river jet boating
hunting
four wheeling ( drag race dirt and sand ) just running the mt sides
hanging out with the family camping, hiking, etc.

sorry at work no pics.
 
Besides anything to do with beer I'm a nut for paintball playing it all over the globe whenever I get the chance. It's the chief reason why I don't have any extra money for brewing supplies.

I also fish, play hockey and lacrosse, and golf my ass off.

When I'm not brewing I spend a lot of time here and designing brewing equipment...
