Get pumped for a day of chillin, grillin, softball, tunes, and fireworks. Dogs and burgs will be provided, but it’s going to be a potluck so bring chips, side dishes, desserts, drinks, etc.
Sounds like your bands are gonna be keeping you busy! haha. Im glad you are at least doing new things since you want to be. Thats awesome. Thanks for sending me mail! That's awesome. I love getting mail and I love sending mail, but unfortunately I cant ever afford to send anything out ever. Im sure you will be getting a comment from me when I get whatever you sent me so that you know it got here! Im so excited!
hello! i just re-stumbled upon your page and remembered a show we played together a few years ago at super happy fun land! are you coming back to houston anytime soon?
Yeah, I totally know what you mean. I like some folk punk stuff, but overall I am pretty burned out on it too... its getting out of hand! haha. What other kind of musical ventures are you partaking? Thats awesome. The east coast is cool I guess, its just different and its not home. It would be really awesome to see you. Maybe one of your awesome new music projects can come play here! I am in a new band too. We are called Beast Infection. I may have added you on out myspace already, but I dont remember. That would be rad if you sent me some stuff! I love getting mail... especially from rad people! I will message you my address!
I miss you too! Were you just getting burned out on playing Redbear stuff? I get like that. I guess there's really not much to mention here either. I have been on a cleaning spree today and its awesome! haha. I've just been trying to make money and I've been homesick even more now since I just visited KY.
Heeeey! I was hoping that I would see you at Crucial Fun Fest, but you were not there. Bummer! Maybe you should come to Baltimore soon!? How is life? What is new? :)
I'll be up there playing a few shows. My new band is recording on Tuesday, and I'm going to be doing a short solo tour "in support of" our record (yay vinyl), or whatevz. Mainly I'm just using the playing as an excuse to go see my friends around the Midwest.
