So, Nathan said it was somewhat dead around here as of late. I figured I'd post some ramblings to give everyone here a way to kill a little time (and maybe a little part of their soul if my cynicism carries over to others).

Anyone else think it's ironic for a company to send its employees to Cancun and an all-inclusive resort for training sessions. Yes, I get the idea of networking over copious amounts of alcohol, but that doesn't mean I think the knowledge retention will be good. In fact, it'll probably suck. I shudder to think how much they spent on this considering "the numbers weren't good enough" to give us our yearly salary boosts.

As for non-nine-to-five activities, my new EP is coming along quite nicely. Five tracks - all acoustic covers like last year's EP release. Although, that was basically a collection of demo-quality tracks. The tracks I've been working on lately are much closer to the quality you get in a professional studio courtesy of my friend Matt who engineered the EP and provided percussion on one track. Hopefully, it's reasonably well-received. It will be a free download like the first Blanket Statement album.

Anywho, I suppose that's all for now. The wife and I are buying a house. It should be superb.

Until next time (and Cancun)...

I am hoping that this doesn't happen to me.

Seems like MS could have a class action lawsuit against them for something like this.

Okay, not really, but it did happen. Kate and I didn't feel it though, we just thought my parents were crazy.

Gigs can be hit or miss. Last night, the crowd wasn't very big at Fat Boys in Connellsville, but there was some great enthusiasm from a few audience members. It's hard sometimes to really get into things during such a long set when the audience is really passive.



On the bright side, we played a few songs that haven't been played yet such as I Know (which sounded stellar) and Double Portion / Spanish Rise. It was definitely a fun night albeit a little under our expectations.



Next scheduled gig isn't until March, but we may get something thrown in before that. Full details (along with the setlist) available here.
