so, i’m in los angeles for the week. tuning some drums on motion city’s fourth record. i’m really excited about hanging out with everyone and also stoked to hear how the songs turned out.

normally, you have to have really good foresight, to be able to heard the finished songs in your head, when it’s just drum tracks. for this, though, everything’s done! the instant gratification is probably gonna make everyone poop their pants. in a good way (i hope). i’m stoked for it.

other than that, i may or may not be getting together with someone who may or may not be hiring me to maybe or maybe not be involved in something that may or may not be awesome. (i hope that was vague enough to not get me in trouble, but still be intriguing! haha). at any rate, keep your fingers crossed for me!

i’ve come a long way since this:

my first drum kit. also, my last polo shirt?

i’m old

sliiiide!

here's me as a youngster. cute fucker.

i just scanned a bunch of old pictures onto my facebook.

there’s a couple in there from high school and it’s crazy, cause i feel like that wasn’t that long ago. but, it was almost a decade ago! yikes! i guess i’ve been teching for mcs for 3 years. somerset was formed almost 7 years ago. and flipsyde’s first tour was like 10 years ago? crazy. hehe.

at any rate, i’m feeling much more positive now, than from my last post. i had a great conversation with jon, who plays in the matches. he is starting a new project and we’re talking about me possibly playing drums for it. i’m excited to hear what he’s got. i hate getting ahead of myself, but just thinking about playing in a band and touring in a van again gets me stoked.
