Advocatus Diaboli & The Grim Leafer Band: Live at Tractor Brewing Company!
**Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band: Behind the Scenes of a Rainy, Hectic Day**
As many of you know, we have a unique band: **Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band**. This one-of-a-kind group features Advocatus Diaboli, Shamshini, and the animatronic Grim Leafers—Blunt, Roach, and Spliff. Our performances are a blend of parodies, original songs, and covers, with a motto that captures our essence: *”Advocatus Diaboli: Touring from venue to venue, gathering the souls of musicians and music lovers alike!”*
This past Saturday, we had the pleasure of playing at **Tractor Brewing Company Westside** in Albuquerque. The venue may have been small, but the energy was big! The crowd was welcoming, and although we didn’t have the chance to taste the local food, it certainly looked and smelled delicious.
However, the day leading up to the show was anything but smooth. The heavy rain made it hectic from the start. Our sound guy’s car needed a jump-start in the downpour, and later someone asked if we could haul their belongings into town. Unfortunately, we didn’t have the space, and since we were already battling flooded roads, I wasn’t about to let Brent load things in the rain, especially right before our show!
Determined not to cancel, we decided to leave early and book a hotel room in Albuquerque. The 11-mile drive through the desert’s dirt roads, now transformed into flooded paths, took over an hour. At one point, the water was as high as the trailer doors! Thankfully, we’d wrapped all of our PA equipment and animatronics in tarps, which kept everything dry and protected.
Once we arrived in Albuquerque, we barely had time to check into the hotel before heading over to Tractor Brewing to set up. We brought more PA gear than necessary, but it’s always better to have too much than too little. We quickly realized that using the subs would have rattled the windows, so we made adjustments. After the setup, we dashed back to the hotel for quick showers and returned just in time for the performance.
Despite the whirlwind of challenges, the show went off without a hitch! If you missed it, don’t worry—**Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band** will be back in action on **Nov 1 at Red Gorilla Studios** for the **October 32nd Dance of the Dead**!
Stay tuned for more, and follow our journey to venue to venue, gathering Rock-n-Roll souls wherever we go!

4th of July Celebration at KaHoon Campground: BBQ, Fireworks, and Live Music!
4th of July Festivities at Ka-Hoon Campground
Yesterday, we hosted a fantastic community BBQ to celebrate the 4th of July. After enjoying some delicious food, we headed to the northern edge of the Mesa to catch a spectacular view of the fireworks. From this vantage point, we could see fireworks being launched in Los Lunas and Albuquerque, as well as smaller displays in Belen and Bosque.
Belen had already held their fireworks show last Saturday, so the crowd was smaller than last year, which made for a more relaxed experience. As we returned home, we were treated to a stunning natural light show as Mother Nature lit up the sky with her own fireworks over the Manzano Mountains.
Today, we’re gearing up for our 2-day 4th of July Celebration here at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center. We can’t wait to continue the festivities with all of you!
Stay tuned for more updates and join us for an unforgettable celebration!

✨ **Embracing Community: A Potluck Gathering in the New Mexico Desert** ️
✨ **Embracing Community: A Potluck Gathering in the New Mexico Desert** ️
Living off-grid in the vast expanse of the New Mexico desert offers a lifestyle filled with unique challenges and rewarding moments. Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting a potluck meal with our neighbors, reminding us of the importance of community in our lives.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting hues of orange and pink across the desert landscape, we gathered to share food, stories, and laughter. Each dish was a labor of love, reflecting the diverse backgrounds and culinary traditions of our small community.
In a place where self-reliance is key, we’ve learned that community is equally vital. Whether lending a hand during tough times or celebrating life’s moments together, our bonds strengthen our sense of belonging and security.
Living off-grid presents unique safety considerations, from navigating rugged terrain to preparing for extreme weather. By fostering camaraderie and support, we create a safety net that extends beyond our individual homesteads.
As the evening closed and stars emerged overhead, illuminating the desert sky, we felt grateful for the connections forged with our neighbors. In a disconnected world, our desert community is a beacon of warmth and shared humanity.
As we face challenges and adventures ahead, we take comfort in our community. Together, we navigate off-grid living guided by solidarity and support.
Here’s to more potluck gatherings, shared sunsets, and camaraderie in the desert. May our community thrive, rooted in kindness and mutual support.
Until next time,
Melodie and Brent Colquhoun

Unexpected Encounters: Living Among Free-Range Cattle at Ka-hoon
Living out here on the Ka-Hoon Plateau Hame De Colquhoun has its unique charms, and one of my favorite aspects is the presence of free-range cattle. These majestic creatures usually keep their distance, but every now and then, they decide to pay us a visit.
Last night was one of those occasions, and it was quite the unexpected encounter. As I hadn’t turned on the motion alarms to keep the cattle away from our buildings and solar panels, one curious cow sauntered right up to our homestead. It seemed she had a particular craving and decided to make a stop at the Dusty Nail General Store – or at least, that’s what it looked like!
Standing just outside the dog fence, she seemed unfazed by the presence of our vigilant canine companions. With a nonchalant demeanor, she leisurely grazed on the grass, completely indifferent to the curious stares from our furry friends.
It’s moments like these that remind me of the beauty and unpredictability of life out here in the wilderness. Despite the occasional surprises, sharing our space with these gentle giants adds to the charm of our rustic lifestyle. Who knows what other adventures await us in the days to come?

Storm coming in
After wrapping up our work in the studio, we stepped outside and noticed that a storm was approaching. We decided to make the most of the situation by heading back home and taking some time to let the dogs out and play with them before the storm arrived. It was a great opportunity to enjoy some quality time with our furry friends while staying safe and dry inside.
