Band practice was tonight and let me tell you: it rocked. All of you who will see us at New Years are in for a real treat. We're trying some different ways of approaching our music that are really working for us. Thanks for that, Jim! It's definitely taking a turn for the best and all the fruits of our hard effort will be passed on to you: the listener. I'm definitely very psyched about it. Also starving! Anyone else get hungry after rocking out?

One of the biggest musical changes I've made is to go from using a Boss ME-50 All-In-One effects pedal to going back to my standard single pedals setup (pictured to the right). The ME-50 was definitely easy to carry around to gigs but even after messing with it for a while, it just wasn't the same. I might try a different Multiple Effects Processor later on, but I'm going to stick with my nice old pedals for now (they also look cool).

Should be in bed right now but instead I'm listening to a new band that I really like: Pigstar. They're japanese and very very cool guys. This is the video for the their song Entity of Eternity (my new favorite song): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=696no6SCDlM

Oh, if I don't blog again before this weekend, Happy Holidays to all! I will be spending this weekend in Flagstaff in our first vacation in over a year! Super excited to get out of town. I think the last time I saw snow was seriously over 15 years ago. Should be fun. Do you guys like snow?
