Howdy people. It’s me Adam. I must say I’ve had a standout day. It’s nice when one of your better days is also the day you can call “Today”. As you know if you’ve been reading our blogs, we’ve been working on this new EP thing… well it’s pretty much finished, so now we’ve been rehearsing the songs that are on it. And today something CLICKED. We were playing the songs… in the “tracking room” of our studio (see studio photo in earlier blog) and it was friggin loud. Just like it should be. But it also felt right… it felt BIG… hard to know why… maybe it was in my head! But maybe not… it seems there’s like this “e.s.p.” thing (not ESPN) that starts to happen in a band… you can sorta hear what’s in the other dude’s heads and you know it’s kinda the same thing that it’s your own head… and in that moment it’s like your one big head. It’s the best. We’ve playing together for almost 5 years now, and these songs seem to suit us… we’re really stoked to play this Thursday night at The Gypsy Lounge (9 pm! Lake Forest!)…

AWB at the Gypsy 1/29/09

Also, I gotta say that on the “business side” of things is really rocking as well… we’re now managed by a dude named David Pack. David is this awesome guy who’s been in the music business for a long time, he’s a Grammy winning producer, an artist in his own right and has decided he believes in us and what’s to do everything he can to help. What a guy. He’s been kicking butt for us lately. More on this later… super exciting stuff…. but I don’t wanna count any chickens before they’re nuggets……. but I can say that it’s starting to look like 2009 is the year we’re gonna share this music with the world on a large scale… knock on Woodrow Wilson. If you’re the praying type we sure could use some. We want to be a positive force out there in the music world. We wanna tie hope to a musical rope and toss it out into the ocean of humans. 

Let me get back to The Gypsy Lounge show Thursday. I know you might like to be there if it didn’t require actually driving down there… I know the feeling… why go anywhere when you can stay home? But, what if you did? What if you actually got off your stupid butt (your butt’s not stupid, I’m being over-confident and emphatic) called some friends, and came down to the local rock show! It’s kinda on the early side so we can hang after for a minute. It’d be good to see you all. Most of us are facebook friends and we all know each other so it’d be like a non digital facebook hang… okay so, see you there suckers!  

Here we are being thankful in advance for you coming to our show.

A thankful and happy band.
