   About Apology Fest
Check my Facebook profile and twitter.com/benvanderbeek for recenter stuff.

Johanna, my wife.thevanderbeeks.com has a blog including videos and photos of our son Noah, last updated... I don't know, probably a few days (weeks? months?) ago.

apologyfest.com has a bunch of songs I've recorded. A bunch.

I'm a big fan of my wife.
I grew up in Garden Valley. I had a pond, and math teachers for parents. Also I had and have brothers, Nathan and Tim. The young one is in Niger for awhile. The other one watches, and lives in, the OC. They've got cool wives. One each. Cori and Jolene. Nate writes to his son Drew here. Tim writes on here sometimes.

I lived in Long Beach 1998-2007. I played in The Hospital, Strategies For Hangman, Other Desert Cities, and Inner Beauty Contest. Mostly now I work for myGearStore.com. Married about 5 years, wifey teachy Pilatey, first baby boy Noah born April '07. Moved to Santa Rosa September '07.

I played/play in this band: Inner Beauty Contest. Currently recording a bunch of songs. Buy a CD or look it up on iTunes.

Yes, I'm in seattle for now, and I live with laurel ferreira! Weird! But I'm moving in summer... probably back to california. It's cold and gloomy here. And I sort of have been hating it for like five years.

Aw, I would just mail it to you for free, except for the fact that I actually have 0 copies of my own. Take that back, I have two copies with the names written in sharpie. Unfortunately no oboe on the first two, but hey! How come there's no bari on your songs?? Well, they sound excellent, bari or no. Talk to you soon.

Hi Ben, I joined a scooter club. I made a YouTube video of our last cruise to Cooks Corner. For background music I used "Frontier" and part of "Trial and Error". If its not okay with you, I'll take it off...let me know. It will be watched by maybe 25 people from our scooter club, I'll send you a link if you want. Thanks...Doug (Paul's dad)

Hi Ben! My birthday was great. I ate good food, shopped and watched wheel of fortune with Donnie. doesn't get much better than that. about the music video- i can't even count how many people have messaged me saying they know someone in it.
It was the best song played at our wedding!

It did take a lot of training to get Batman to attack hair... you should try teaching Noah if you're up for the challenge

This definitely will not make you feel better, but at least you're stuck in Hawaii. There are a handful of worse places. ;)

Hope you guys are doing well.

Wow! Noah is so big! How are you guys? How's everything up in NorCal?
Ben

For starters... you missed a GREAT show. Secondly, for like 5 months I never ate pizza and then all the sudden I've been eating it like crazy. Thirdly, my move has been a form of exercise. and lastly... when am I not around some girl.. I'm a pimp baby!!!

Her dream was surely prophetic.
