Hey everyone, been awhile since I've done one of these, right?
Musically
speaking, the past few weeks for me have been absolutely fantastic. I
feel so blessed I'm able to continually partake in something I love,
and the thought that somebody out there actually likes what I play
makes me more happy than I think I could really ever describe. Having
local radio stations play our songs, having people tell me "Hey, your
song helped me through a lot" ...it means so damn much to me. My music
is me pouring out myself to whoever is willing to listen and watch, and
people liking that is so worth the effort, regardless of how many
frustrated hours I spend writing or how much money I lose.
Last
night actually marks my backup vocal debut with Kemo For Emo. I mean,
if you've been to a K4E show in the past, normally I either only talk
on a mic, or even sometimes just flat go without a mic. I have no
problem talking to a crowd onstage, however I've never had the nicest
voice while singing. That and I've never had the confidence. But last
night I actually, truly sang. I only sang backup for a few songs, but
singing I've found can be a lot of fun. Don't expect me to do any lead
vocals for k4e anytime soon, but definitely look out for harmonies I
may do in the future. My voice is very limited, but since I now know
the boundaries of my vocal range better, I operate with what I can.
I
think the confidence point changed back when my other band, Something
Really Dirty, played live the other week. I'm SRD's frontman, so I had
to learn to like singing in front of people whether I wanted to or not.
That ended up being a REALLY fun show, and SRD will be playing live
again soon as well. Be on the lookout for us as well in the future,
though we'll never be serious like K4E is (and for good reason).
K4E's
show back on Saturday with Placid Blue was such a great show, there
were a ton of people and everyone really seemed to have enjoyed it,
some people afterwards were asking for more! I feel very proud of what
we accomplished last night, and continually look forward to what lies
next, and I hope you all come along for the ride.
Have a great week, everyone.

| Holy 1997, Batman! Anybody remember this album? I used to like it a LOT.
...and I still do.
I wish there were still legitimate pop bands making songs like these.
