"But it isn't easy," said Pooh to himself... "Because poetry and hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you. And all you can do is go where they can find you."

My name is TJ. I am If Bears Were Bees' center. The music and arrangements stem from me and are performed when my friends and I get together. But I also play them by myself because IBWB is my sole responsibility. Though it's more fun to share the load.

Also, you should listen to my friends - Skinny People Kissing.

Ryan	Jun 14 2009 4:43 PM Hey TJ this is Ryan, Garrett and i were the ones in Hoquiam. you guys sounded great! Garrett and i were wondering if you would ever like to get together and talk about recording and stuff because we enjoy recording and are interested in what you learned down in California and whatnot. looking forward to your next show! talk to you later
Suiraqua	Jun 9 2009 4:51 AM You probably get this a lot, but your music is amazing. I love acoustic music, and you do it better than any local artist I've ever heard. Corny as it sounds, your songs have been an inspiration for me as a singer/songwriter and I really appreciate that. Hope you come back to Maple Valley again soon!
Katie	Jun 9 2009 3:32 AM don't even worry about it: good word already given. too bad there weren't more peeps around to scare :) next time, man, next time.
