Well it's nice to see everyone except Dale Lawrence has been busy*.
* Dale you know I love you, but you ain't Guns and Roses. Get back in
the studio and make a damn record already.
I love you too Rob. I know this because you tell me to make records. Also
because you tell me I'm not Guns'n'Roses, since that would be an insult! I
actually dismantled my studio for well over a year--mistakenly thinking I
would produce using software only, which was only good for crashing my
machine. Plus my basement studio which used to remind me of some far off
technoasis for the soul started to feel like just another cluttered
basement... I have since remedied both of these things and reassembled my
studio more compact on the top floor of my house--and the irony is, as soon
as I did this the software stopped crashing my machine. Now as far as the
tracks... I actually did just upload a new unreleased one on myspace
yesterday.

Yeah seriously, why did Dale just drop off the face of the earth? There
was so much hope and promise...
It seems my ADHD decided to hyperfocus on something else for a while. I've
never written music because I have to, or because it's my job. If I did
that it would be no better than 90% of the fodder that is out there--don't
get me wrong, I'm not saying I'm all that, but I can tell when an artist is
in the creative moment, or when they're just doing it to be cool. I think
we all can. I've always written my best music for myself first and
everything after that was just a bonus. On top of that I've got real life
issues to take care of too that are more pressing.
Also, anyone that wants to hire a graphic designer should send me an
email... /shameless!

I think he just grew up!
Haha, I'm still working on that!
