A Joyful Noise

What other way is there to describe music? Music for a lil bit was starting to become a stressful thing for me and something that I wasn't really enjoying much on a few levels. So in order to try and get that "fun" feeling back, I hooked up w/ these cat in Pittsboro, NC who get together on Sunday afternoons in a garage, drink beer, bullshit, and play AC/DC covers. Talk about feeling 17 again. It's been so much fun working w/ these guys and it's stress free fun. Just 4 guys knocking back some cold ones and playing the music we all grew up on. It's been nice to dust off the bass guitar and rig and really crank it up to 11! Besides, it is one louder. Doing this has really made me love music again and remember just why I got into this in the first place. It's also made me re-evaluate some of the things I've been doing lately as well. Maybe I need to take a lower road w/ somethings and just enjoy them for what they are and not try and make them something else. And if I do want more, than it's up to me to make that happen in some other form.

I'm also really excited about another musical project in the works w/ a musician and friend I admire VERY much so. This is gonna be something REALLY fun and REALLY unique and I can't begin to say how psyched I am. To be considered a musician of the same caliber as these guys is a compliment and a half and I'm honored. I'm not gonna say any more about it but I will say this, you will never see or hear ANYTHING like this! It's gonna rock your sock hop baby!

So the countdown has started! The CD release show is on the 14th and I'm so psyched! This is what I've been working towards for the past year and it's all coming to this! I hope it'll be a great audience. This is a REALLY important show to me and it's nice to know that I will be surrounded by supportive loved ones and friends on this night. This is going to be a special show and I can't begin to say how much I hope you all can make it out! I would be honored to entertain you. OH yeah, and buy a CD while you're at it won't ya? haha!

Love you all!
