Woo-Diddy!
I'm so excited!


It's been a helluva month here - for those that don't know I had a baby back in September and am just now getting back into the swing of things. First day back at work (no that's NOT what I'm excited about) and the band is making a big comeback with 3 shows this month and an album on the way (yeah THAT's where the excitement is coming from).


Little TJ got kicked out of his first rock show ever last Sat. at Across the Street Bar, but it's okay... I saw him leaving with the 2 finest ladies in the joint and he spent the whole evening with them back at his place totally unsupervised by his momma. I'm so proud! ;-)


Thursday I'm heading back to Nomad to lay down a few vocal tracks for our new album, Dive! I can't wait til this one is ready for you all to hear - hopefully very very soon!

Then on Friday we've got a show at Lakewood B&G with my very favoritist Dallas Riot Girl band, the Loosies. You know you want to be there to welcome us back!

Halloween night we're gonna rock your socks off at the prophet bar. And there's a costume contest. Woot woot! I'm not sure I can top my costumes from the last few years but I am definately going to try! Any ideas? I thought about going as Justin or Elrych, but then I thought... no... way too scary! ;-) what do you guys think?

Whew!

Whew!
I am currently sitting at my desk listening to Bivouac by Jawbreaker after playing about an hour of online poker. Just winding down after a day in the studio. Today I layed down some guitar tracks and it looks like I will be doing the same all day tomorrow and possibly into friday. I had thought I would be just out and done but its taking a while. There's this fine line of wanting it to sound the best possible but balancing that with the rabbit down the hole syndrome. Sometimes you gotta let the mistakes stand to add flavor. Speaking of flavor, Kristen made me some pot roast today for while recording, and man it was DELICIOUS!

So, hopefully, all the stringers will be done recording by early next week.

Also, we have a little secret show coming up this week that we arent really publicizing. We are using it to tool up for the upcoming shows this month and the upcoming CD promotion shows we will be doing in the next coupla months. If you wanna come, I guarantee its gonna kick ass! Just msg us for the place and time and we will tell you!
