Loving 3D Printing

Posted on August 10, 2022September 11, 2022 by Joe Del Rocco

As an elementary school STEM teacher it would be a disservice to my students if I didn’t introduce them to 3D printing in this day and age. So our school bought a couple printers this school year and I’ve kept them running almost constantly. It’s been more fun that I imagined it would be. I’m…

Original NES

Posted on March 28, 2022June 13, 2022 by Joe Del Rocco

I recently bought an original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and hooked it up for my son and his friends to experience 80s gaming. I sold my original NES in the 90s but still had various cartridge games stashed away. He found them and wanted to play them as I did. Note this is an original…

Vanwho? Yes.

Posted on February 10, 2020July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

We had the pleasure of opening up for Vanwho last night at Uncle Lou’s. If music comes from the soul, this is music. She has a beautiful voice and playing style, very emotional and unique. I also like her use of whistling for leads 🙂 She is very talented. Make it a point to see…

Posted on January 19, 2020July 19, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

An impromptu blues jam at the house with some friends. My neighbor Jeff (of Lure Design and the Ten10 open mic jam) is shredding it as usual on guitar. Long time no see multi-band mate, Scott Sigman, on bass in this video, but Jason Hinders played bass most of the night. Joel Pickering and UCF…

My FFXIV WHM

Posted on September 1, 2019July 18, 2021 by Joe Del Rocco

— Update 07/2021: I wasn’t aware until recently of the Japanese show (Final Fantasy XIV: Dad of Light) and movie (Brave Father Online: Our Story of Final Fantasy XIV) that featured FFXIV as a plot vehicle. Pretty cool idea and very enjoyable for FFXIV fans. — As I wind down another 4 month mini-addiction of…

Terri Binion

Posted on August 14, 2019February 10, 2020 by Joe Del Rocco

I saw Terri Binion tonight at Imperial Wine Bar at Washburn Imports on North Orange. She plays folky Americana songs, and has a fantastic voice. She’s been in and Central Florida for a long time, but has also toured nationally and played with some greats. She knows what she’s doing. She handled the loud, chatty…

Ten10 Rock and Blues Jam

Mike Wallace of Ten10 Brewing Company and Jeff Matz of Lure Design host a local rock and blues jam session every Wednesday at 7pm at Ten10 Brewing on Virginia Dr. near Mills (and have been doing so for several years now). It’s very laid back and friendly. We’ve had many musicians come out, including guitarists,…
