Tidbits, news, & asides from my somewhat dopey life...

As I mentioned in the last entry, the sessions for "Fear And Loathing In New Jersey" are almost finished. One more session is needed for a couple guitar solos and the sample for "Totally Worthless", then it's on to mixdown. We originally were hoping to release this as a full length, but it seems Rally Records...

Fear & Loathing sessions - Day 7

Day 7 up at Philmore's saw us complete the backing vocals. All that's left now is one more session for a couple guitar solos and the sample for "Totally Worthless".

The night started with the traditional Wawa run. I discovered a new favorite wrap, the chipotle roast beef. The session really seemed to run quick. We had the...

Middle Twp Rec Center, CMCH, NJ 10/14/06

The 1st of 2 shows we were playing yesterday. We would be playing outside in the parking lot as part of the grand opening ceremony of a local skatepark that the twp was kind enough to put up. Problem was we only had like 2 days notice to try and promote it....

House Party, Swainton, NJ 10/13/06

And so began The Sheckies snotty weekend tour (as named by Andy being we have 3 shows in 2 days and my nose is dripping like a faucet). It was only fitting that we were playing at the last house on the left on Friday the 13th!

We got there after a much needed Wawa pit stop where I had...

Fear & Loathing sessions - Day 6


We finally got a chance to go back up after missing last week 'coz of Philmore getting his medical procedure done (he's just fine, thanks for asking). We were bringing a very special guest along, our buddy Mark better known as "Pvt. Dick". After a very philosophical ride up where we were discussing shit amoungst our social circle...

Fear & Loathing sessions - Day 5

Typical trip up, stop at the Wawa, you know the routine by now. Andy wanted to listen to everything to make sure it sounded tight. In the meantime I was checking out my fantasy football leagues (yes, I'm...

Andy's a bit under the weather so the trip to the studio was postponed. Guess our next opportunity won't be until maybe some time next week.

Looks like I will be working way more hours these next few weeks. My boss is going in for a biopsy next Thursday. I'll be covering his wife's shift. He's the kitchen manager, his wife & her sister (twins...

We spent about 5 hours at Phil's Saturday getting down the basic tracks of guitar, bass, & drums. So many little mistakes here and there especially on the older songs. We should know them like the back of our hands, but then again a few we really haven't played out in awhile. I had a helluva time getting the simplest of drum rolls down for...

Went to the dentist yesterday for my checkup. Wound up staying longer than expected gettting an old filling replaced. So between x-rays, cleaning, and the new filling, it was $255 on my care credit card. Worst part is I have to get 2 more taken care of which will be another $265. Since I almost maxed the card out, I have to put that off...

Fear & Loathing Sessions - Day 1

In our excitement of seeing and working with our beloved Philmore of Stealth Studios, we decided to put together a gift basket of special essential items as a way of saying thanks and to show our gratitude for projects past. The wicker basket was filled with colored paper and somehow a Wawa stuffed pretzel wrapper. The items were...

Just a bit depressed today. I was supposed to go see the Black Crowes tonight in Reading, PA but my original concert buddy George moved to North Carolina and I could find no one else who wanted to go. So once again I'll eat the costs. The brothers Robinson need it. Last week we found out Ed was no longer in the band, this Tuesday...
