A few things:


  • My newest EP, #NotDrinkingAtTheParty will be out this weekend on iTunes and Spotify, as well as my SoundCloud.

  • I started my second job at Five Below this week, and I think I'll really enjoy it!

  • I don't remember making lists on blogs being this difficult.

  • I really hope I'm doing this right.

  • My BigCartel will hopefully be up and running next week!...

lists suck.
The end.

Except for the post script . . .

Glad things are going well.

Looking forward to hearing the EP!

So I officially made the decision and will be leaving the band once a new drummer is found and brought up to speed. It sucks, but life doesn't always go how we plan it.

In other news, however, my EP will still be coming out soon, probably in two or so weeks. It's not going to be a big deal as far as selling it...

Yeah that sucks about the band. But still, at least you have other musical projects to put your energy into - leaving the band isn't leaving you without an outlet, if you know what I mean
johnnysniper:
Fair enough. The studio thing will be cool - recording's such a different environment to live performance. Both definitely have their appeals, but I guess like most things they both rely so much on who you're working with

I'm the worst...ever. Sorry to anyone who's ever kept track of this blog. I'm so bad at keeping up. I want to definitely post more and whatnot but life's just weird.

So, I'll keep it short and sweet!
1) I might be leaving the band soon. I love it but I need to do me for a little while. Personal accountability type stuff, ya know?...

Nice man, looking forward to hearing the music! What will you go back to do at school, have you decided yet?

Hey SG world. It's been a while. It's not you, it's me, promise. (That line works here, right?)
I've just been super busy lately.

Life has changed a bit drastically for me in the last few months since I really updated this. Nothing too big, I'm still alive and well and my family's been good, but my musical endeavors have changed quite a bit. For...

Man, that's pretty exciting! (Except the bit with the laptop - argh)
What happened with the man/the martyr? Sounds like maybe you didn't leave on the best of terms...
johnnysniper:
Well fair enough then. It's a shame things didn't work out, but at least now you know where it was going (or wasn't). And as you say, time for new things. And that sounds pretty awesome!

A quick blog today. The album's going very well and October is looking to be an exciting month. "The New Jam" is the first single from the album and it's available on iTunes, Spotify, etc. There's probably going to be a music video for it soon too.

But what I really want to talk about is the new ROUT EP, "Nourishment", which came out today,...

I'll check this out!
Glad all is going well.
johnnysniper:
Nice. And cool that it's going to a good cause.

Music video is pretty exciting! We're doing a bit of recording too at the moment, it's all very fun (in a stressful sort of way).

Hope things are going well for you smile

Hope you're all well! I've been doing pretty well, myself. My next album is finally about to go into its final stages of production/mixing. I very excited for it to be finished.

I also went to Warped Tour last week, and it was really fun, as always. I saw some great bands, and met some cool people, plus I saw a lot of my friends....

Awesome!

What bands did you see, any highlights?
johnnysniper:
Oh awesome. I've been loving the latest ETID album (came out earlier this year sometime), I bet they would have been awesome live

Don't you hate it when that happens.
Still, I'm always reluctant to post anything when the SG feed is down.

For those that don't know, my birthday was yesterday, the 21st. And it was great. I stole my Tumblr blog post for this blog entry, because I really didn't want to retype everything. Oh laziness!

Yesterday was fucking awesome. I was with my sister for the first half of the day. I got my paycheck, then went and got my learners permit, then visited my...

Happy birthday man! Sounds like you had a pretty sweet day of it. Except for the girl passing out next to you. That'd weird me out a bit too.

Really like the tattoo as well smile

Whenever I go to start a new blog, I always try to think of how things have changed since my last blog, but it's been so long that I usually have a hard time thinking of things other than the obvious.

For example, I got my job at Sam's Club back, and it's really like I never left. Having an income again is awesome.

You...

I'm with you on the band not getting much done. It seems like that's how it goes sometimes, like you have these peaks and troughs of productivity. Good that stuff's happening with the othwr band, and with your own music. I've been in kind of a similar situation with my band recently, just sort of trucking along and not really progressing. But lately it seems like things are moving a bit more which has been good.

That's cool about Epitaph and the Warped Tour, man that'll be so fun. I'm jealous tongue
johnnysniper:
Haha cheers man, glad you agree. And yeah, I bet you get to meet so many musicians, that's got to be the best part of the day. Like I say, jealous
