I havent posted in a hot minute. I had some things I wanted to post, but never thought about it when I was at my computer. I thought about posting from my phone, but I figured that would take too long. So here is a short post. While I’m thinking about it. From my phone.

January had been a good month: I moved into a new apartment, started dating a killer gal, and finally started playing music again. I’m excited about all 3, but I want to highlight the music. Since Recession broke up (or slowly disappeared from view) I haven’t really written any new material or played out. At all. I play at church and don’t get me wrong, I love it, but I miss playing at some random dive bar for people who only want to half listen. Strange, I know, but playing out is a passion of mine and I want it back. I’ve played a couple little gigs with my buddy Daniel Snoke and I’m actually starting to write again. The plan is to put together a new album.

I want to be involved in as many music projects as I can handle and I want to record a real, honest to goodness album, unlike the little recordings I put on CDs before. Schultzie has offered to help and I’m looking to get kevin in on the fun as well. I want a band, a solo project, a two piece, another band, and like four more projects. I’m addicted. I just find myself lacking the necessary equipment/skill/know-how to do all of that on my own. Unfortunately I can’t beg on the street like a crack addict because no one will drop a digi 003 in my cup, but I’ll find a way to make it happen.

I lack patience. I have much more than I did a few years ago, but I still subscribe to my generation’s “Instant Gratification” mentality. I want my girlfriend to move here. I want recording equipment. I want a new album. I want to make money playing music. I want a lot of things. These things all take time, though, and that is what I must remind myself.

So. If you were one of the lucky few who read this, you now know my feelings for the month of January in the year 2011. If you also happen to be blessed with oodles of cash and you feel like giving it away, first give to charity and the church, then to me. Kthxbai.
