My Band Rocks is my music blog, all about my decade-plus of playing bass guitar (and sometimes singing) for bands like the Mojo Wire, Honey White, and my side project Low Tide. The blog itself is mostly for news items, but there are a few regular series that I've run there:

The History Mix: Essays about every Mojo Wire and Honey White release.

Audio Archives: Posts with streaming mp3 audio, highlighting both high-profile and more obscure releases from both bands as well as side projects.

Unrepetant Fanboys: Fun series where each Honey White band member pontificated about their favorite bands and songs.

There's also discographies for both the Mojo Wire and Honey White, plus Gig Notes for live shows and their setlists over the years.

My band bio: "Keir DuBois has been steadily destroying his own credibility in rock bands for over ten years. As bassist/vocalist in the Mojo Wire, he helped that group inflict themselves upon the populace of Isla Vista, California from 1997-2001. Before that, he was part of a band actually named the Clap. Keir is also a recovering music journalist, having written unnecessarily opinionated spew for both the UCSB Daily Nexus and the Santa Barbara Independent."

"Forming Honey White has allowed Keir to further inflate his ego despite the fact that he is the oldest, fattest, and baldest member of the band. Keir is anticipating the day when he can be as righteously grumpy as Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, and David Lowery, while simultaneously playing his Fender J-bass as poorly as Adam Clayton or as uniquely as Mark Sandman. Then no one will ever need to know that he also likes graphic arts, history, geography, politics, and baseball."
