well not much as been going on lately. just enjoying being a proud daddy. my kid is amazing and i cherish every moment i get to spend with him. other then that i just work and hang out with good people that take the time and effort to keep in touch with me when i can actually go out.
not going to shows to much anymore except if friends of mine are playing. but that is a good thing. recently, i have been listening to a lot of old school stuff such as the bands i was listening to when i first go into punk rock. it just makes me think of all the good times i had growing up and going to shows. i actually looked forward to going to see bands and people there. towards the end of my run in the scene i just got to caught up in the drama and what was "cool". i still met some cool people along the way but it is just funny how i am back to the kids i hung out with in high school with a few exceptions.
having a baby just put a lot of stuff into perspective for me that there was more to life then being a "scenester". i mean if that is what people are into that is cool by me. i judge no one anymore and do not think i am better then anyone like i used to. it just wasn't for me anymore. i still love the music as much as i ever did but it was just time for me to take myself out of a situation that could get myself into trouble. it was just time for me to move on to the next chapter in my life and i have to say it is pretty damn good. i do miss a lot of people though that i don't see anymore. it would be good to talk to them and see how they are doing. i don't put the blame on anyone for me not seeing or talking to you because the saying goes "the phone works both ways" i just don't have a lot of peoples phone numbers anymore and i got a new one myself. i hear things from time to time about people and it is good to hear everyone is doing well for themselves though.
this was just a rant of mine. that is what listening to the music i have been listening to will do to you.
love,
