Just got back from the film festival at UNH. It was alot better than I anticipated. Quite a few quality submissions. I wasn't sure how our (steve, bob w. and I) film would be recived. At this point it's still unclear to me haha. I think we melted a few minds, but it was too abstract to place. We got some positive comments about the cinematography and it got quite a few laughs, but alas, the world still isnt ready for us I think. No matter, the winners definetly deserverd it, and a good time was had by all.
The show is Friday and I'm really looking forward to that. It's weird going from avereging two or more shows a week to not playing out at all for ten months (its always ten months (of aggression)!). You get used to the release and the adrenaline rush, and when that gets cut off I tend to feel stiff. Playing live gave me an excuse to run around and scream and dance like a little kid. When I'm playing a show I get real focused and my head empties out. All that's important is the song and the moment. That sort of concentrated mindlessness is amazing. I hardly ever remember anything from a set. Just before and after. I miss it quite a bit, and I welcome its return.
Reading this back, i sound silly getting so much meaning out of whats essentially me playing rock songs in front of people. Maybe I just like to show off, weather it impresses anyone or not. It's one thing I can actually do with any amount of expertise and I enjoy it so... Kick out the jams motherfuckers.
