Today should be interesting. I'm going to see Rise Against. If this didn't sound like my MySpace in 2008, I don't know what does. To me though, this date is weird. It holds meaning on many parts. Explains why I wound up liking the band, and some reasonings of things that have led me the way I have gone. The summer of 2008 was a crazy one. I spent most of my summer working on a new band, and that ... » Continue Reading

Lets talk about song meanings. As I am writing new lyrics, I want to dive into what some older songs I wrote meant. I don't have the weird things I wrote in high school at the ready, but what I released in 2017 is a good starting point. I'll see if I can find other material as we go. First off, think... What is the meaning of "emo." Does it always have to be drab depressing songs about suicide? No... » Continue Reading

I once had an organized plan for this. That seems to have fallen apart. Cool thing is, I have a lap top. So the days of typing less than complete thoughts with my fingers may be slowing down. I’ve had so many of these damn things over the years. Let’s start with the home front. The search for a job has been painful. I am coming up on a month now. Unfortunately, the facade i have put up at times t... » Continue Reading

I need to be brutally honest. I am not okay. It’s been two weeks since I lost my job, and it’s been very disheartening. The job search makes me feel, at times, that I am essentially worthless. That I am just wasting my time doing something that will lead no where. My head has been a very dark place in that same time. I am growing scared of money situations, and what COULD happen if things are pro... » Continue Reading

Well… I’m back. Yes, I was saved. At that time I was using that as code for when I would hit full immunity. Well, a lot has happened since then. Let me begin. The saga that is the band has changed drastically. The combination of the two projects is essentially complete. Guitar player from original line up officially quit at the end of April. Thus, this brought the drummer and I to the conclusion ... » Continue Reading

Before we talk music, talk briefly about life. Went to my grandfathers unveiling. It’s a tradition in the Jewish faith which the headstone is revealed to family and friends. To me it marked the end of a crazy three years. It all started on an October night in 2017 when my wife got a weird phone call from her uncle about her grandfather who was in a tragic accident, and ultimately passed. Today fe... » Continue Reading

Only one day late this time. Normally I write Sunday after I’m done playing some songs. However as I mentioned last week, I had something’s going on. This Sunday I went over to see my parents, so I wasn’t home. However.... Friday was my birthday. This marked Covid birthday number 2. Last year there were only grumblings of the virus. It blew up two days later. Here we are, one year later. My wif... » Continue Reading

I’m SUPER late. I’m sorry. Normally I post on Sunday as the weekend ends to recount what I have been scribbling down over the weekend. I didn’t do much musically, but I did do some stuff. I bought a new Gibson studio a few weeks ago, it finally arrived last week, and I finally got to jam some of the songs I have been writing on it. It plus so smooth. Couldn’t have asked for something better. I d... » Continue Reading

Well yesterday was the 28th. It’s kind of a bittersweet day after. Last year at this time I was waking up in Flagstaff with a headache and a “what the hell happened last night” thought. It was the last time I played out officially. I took a short ride to play the Monte Vista that evening. I’m still really bummed about it in the grand scheme. I played MAYBE four songs. I feel so incomplete about th... » Continue Reading

Spent some time on some introspective s thought. I can amaze myself by how I can drag myself down in to the muck, and seem like I can never get out. You find yourself thinking with all of the responsibilities in life, and suddenly it seems to compress you into a little ball, but you can’t find your way out from it. As I took to things today, I had a wave of crippling anxiety. I went out last nigh... » Continue Reading

You look back and think of all the past Valentine’s Day you had. I’m afraid to read my blogs from like 2004-2009 that I had on the OG MySpace. Either really clingy or just nonsense. I am very well aware of my old Blogger from 2010. Good stuff. I come back around. My drop box of wonders has been shared to the other guys in the band. Mind you, what I wrote is merely foundations of songs. Everything... » Continue Reading

I realized I didn’t say anything yesterday about what’s been going on. So here’s the low down. This past week I noticed that someone posted their musical equipment for sale on FB. To me it wasn’t a surprise, but something I had been looking to see for a while. It made my reasoning a little easier. Everyone encounters that point in life when they want to find change, well that was it for them I gu... » Continue Reading
