IT'S BEEN AWHILE...

hey guys! its been awhile... this post is gonna be more of a blog entry. i know i have not been keeping up with my post i just looked and i had no idea it has already been 2 months since my last post (thats terrible i know...). for this i do apologize. my life these days is very hectic, trying to fit in all the things that i need to do when ever i can, but unfortunately not as often as i would like. for those of u who may not know, i started music production/studio engineering courses at IAR (the institute of audio research) in NYC this past May. so with school, and work (trying to pay my bills son...) music has been a slower process. it is NOT, nor will ever be postponed, but rather i can only work on music 3hrs every week, which is not a lot of time to get much done. as i am still only a student of music engineering i still hit major setbacks in the recording process, my skills not being at the caliber that i want them to be. so unfortunately i rather put nothing out than put out crap. u only get to make one first impression and one shot is usually all u get to get new people to pay attention to ur music. so i do hope to make a 3 song EP very soon and once that is complete i will start playing shows which is definitely where i think i shine the most. so once that gets rollin i hope to see u all at some shows helpin me out and showin ur support. 

i will leave this post with sort of a rough poem that will soon become a song. 

but first i would just like to take this time to give a shout out to my good friend Keenan Gaynor of Declanswell. recently he along with a few other friends launched an amazing new music media page. their focus, to give exposure to exceptional underground, and unknown artists. the page has great articles addressing the state of music and interviews with local musicians. yesterday they just posted their first podcast which they will be doing every month. this allows u to literally hear the bands these guys are talking about. so please do urself a favor and check out some really great music here at www.praiseforwallflower.com
 
alright guys thank u for stopin by, i wish u all well. 

till next time...


"untitled"

so take this riddle down
with pen and ink
we begin to sink
into, a different point of view...
and find wut we found
an uncertainty 
that will stay with me
till i clean up 
and my life has turned around...

things that left, and go to shore
we never see her anymore
and i cant take it,
no i cant take it...
all of the looks 
and all of the fights 
take these walls down
just take these walls down

and all the pain, u caused when u
abandoned all u thought u knew
and left the lie u fed me all my life...
and the pain, eats me up inside
so much that i cant fall asleep at night 
will i ever reach solid ground?
