life lately.

a lot of things have been happening.

last night (11/23) we played at Music Farm in Charleston.
It was a really fun and good show. Got to meet a lot of people and it was cool playing the new stuff there for the first time.

friday (11/21) we played at The Hazmat here in Myrtle Beach.


we have our EP back and mastered.
our first plans of getting it pressed and replicated ourselves were quickly put to a halt when we realized we had no money to do so. so now we are going to sit on it and shop it to labels in hopes for a label to release it for us, which would be nice.

we have a lot of shows coming up, a small tour, and a huge one in Jan/Feb.
we are stoked and things are getting done.

we found an awesome van here in Myrtle and are hoping to purchase it before our December tour. piling in Alex's suburban just isn't too comfy, and it gives me a headache for some weird reason.

i had the worst headache all of yesterday and through the night. i think it was because i didn't have any sweet tea.

i was literally exhausted by the time our set was over. I could hardly lift anything with my left arm, due to me squeezing the mic the entire set. (a habit i must get rid of.)




so the EP is up on MySpace. all of the songs for a little while.

go listen.

no more studio. in va beach.

we are back from the studio. and i have taken a couple days to come up to Virginia to hang out with Taryn.
the studio was good. boring at times, but mostly really good. Tyler and his family were awesome and very inviting.

Tyler is now mixing the tracks and then we send them off to Portland to get mastered. After that, we just have to get some money together for packaging and replicating the CD. then we will have the EP in our hands. it's a bit of a long process.



i'll write a bit more details later on. about to go see a movie!

"If this bloody counterfeit liberation is American...
I am proud to be Un-American.

If depleted uranium is American...
I am proud to be Un-American.

If US sanctions are American...
I am proud to be Un-American.

If the imposed 'peace' of Pax Americana is American...
I am proud to be Un-American.



But if grace, humility, and nonviolence are American...
I am proud to be American.

If sharing to create a safe, sustainable world is American...
I am proud to be American.

If loving our enemies is American...
I am proud to be American.



Regardless, I would die for the people of New York, but I will not kill for them... my kingdom is not of this world.

I would die for the people of Baghdad, but I will not kill for them... my kingdom is not of this world.

I will pledge an allegiance deeper than nationalism, to my God and to my family... my kingdom is not of this world. I will use my life to shout "Another world is possible"... for my kingdom is from another place. "My kingdom is not this world. If it were, my servants would fight... but now my kingdom is from another place" (Jesus; John 18:36)"

i'm 20 and it feels the same.

FIRST AND FOREMOST!

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS BOX RIGHT HERE. YOU ARE ALL AMAZING AND WE ARE SO THANKFUL FOR YOU!







coming up on two weeks here in Cleveland.
things are moving along at a concentrated pace, it seems.

today, we have the day off of recording, due to a store closing next door and having a sale. meaning we can't play very loud and the microphones would probable pick up a bit of their noise. Cody is making an effort to get their, (As Cities Burn) album all done by tonight, so that's another reason we aren't recording tonight.

we are currently eating chips and salsa (my fav) and watching Arrested Development. Joel just left to go to Taco Bell. the lack of fast food is eating away at him, i believe.

this is where we are:
we currently have 3 songs complete on rhythm guitar. drum and bass done for all tracks.
we are going to pick it up again tomorrow after 5pm i think and try and get some stuff done.
we are also working a half day on Sunday.
i am so ready to record vocals. i am super antsy about it.
i am stoked with how the songs were changed and what we have added on to them during recording.
this EP will be super cool i believe.


reader, i hope you're having a good day/night/whatever it is when you read this.




p.s. here is a treat for you all. meet Elizabeth..

.

bass and drums are now complete. today we start guitars. here are some pictures.

day 6.

it's day 6 here.

all of the drum tracks were finished as of 2 days ago. yesterday was spent editing half of those drum tracks. and today will be spent editing the remainder. while Tyler was editing the drums, we drove down to Ocoee Dam #1. It was really nice, but our hunger got the best of us and we ended up at Subway getting five-dollar footlongs. It was a bit gloomy out and we decided we would head back on a sunny day.

the 20 minute drive was so refreshing. i can smell Fall coming like never before. the crispy, airy smell was flowing through the car yesterday like crazy. it was one of those times for me. one of those times when i remember how miniscule i am. and how much i take things for granted.

things are good.
