Bright and shiny

     Okay folks it's 1/1/11.  I don't know what that necessarily means, but it seems momentous none the less.  So it's a new year, a new day, NEW.  I am downright jazzed for what's a coming with all this new-ness!  We have been rehearsing like mad, working on making the live show bigger and better every time.  This will only continue and increase in this coming year.  Along with a sweeter live show, we have new band members joining the ranks to make it an even tastier deal!  We have also come up with some super-cool-top-secret surprises for all the listeners within these next few months.   This is in no way intended to be a cop-out, but administrative work on  our team is huge and hard.  Thus, we have a radical new game plan (that is not any easier, but far more effective) to get all things out and about (all things meaning our music and media...). 

     For me, I also have some 'changes' or 'resolutions' that are being put into place for this new year.  All of which will directly benefit the sound, look, and longevity of the band, and hopefully myself as well ;).  I must admit, that one of these is cutting out sugar... not in my voice or attitude, just in my eating habits...  Boo for me, but yay for me.  It'll be a good challenge though, along with waking my booty up earlier to get some fresh air.  I'll tell ya right now, my daily routine at this point involves waking up, and slogging to work at my desk or computer as soon as the coffee starts brewing.  Then, I usually remember I have a life to tend to just in time to do dishes, take a shower, oh! eat something!, and then off to work again.  Until... until I can't any more... Usually in the wee hours of the morning.  Then I close my eyes for a bit, until they open again, and I start all over.  Ahh well... This year, the idea is to incorporate more fresh air, and regular additions of leafy greens to all my meals... But enough of that!  My boring old life is not as sweet on the ears as I hope our music is! 

     I am also happy to report that we have a really great show coming up in February that we are working on very hard right now.  We'll be playing Art Attack (second Sat. of every month) at the MIX in Georgetown.  It will be the inaugural February Freak Fest!  Freakish attire encouraged!  But mostly, it should just be a proper carnivalesque throw-down.  We will also be incorporating a vaudeville show into it all.  Good old-fashioned entertainment for all!  So stay tuned on that front, as the lineup is evolving and getting better every day :)

     So happy new year!!! Happy 1 day!!!  Happy everything, and may everything (although, realistically, let's just say, "the important stuff") be happy all year round!
