Weekend
Weekend was pretty sweet....
Went to Kenosha after school friday to get sticks. Came home. Show time.
Show was alright. A little disappointed with the turn-out. Had to be the "nice-guy" and in the end got really pissed off about it. Next time I'm gonna stay a hard ass and not be so nice. Cyntext played alright. Not our best performance. My monitor mix was terrible but we did the best we could. Had the time of my life playing with TBH! We played WAY better then our last(first)show. Gary had some guitar problems but spanny was there to save the day. Went to vegas afterwords and then home for sleep.
Worked the next day and then had a nice reunion with nick, ryan, dakota, and frank. Went to see The Ring 2. I thought it was a pretty good movie. Thought of it higher then most did. Long movie though.
Something a little exciting and probably the highlight to the weekend...
Cyntext was on 94.7 The Zone this morning!!!!!!!!
Now, it was only "the local zone" and was on at like 6:30 in the morning but I'm extremely proud of myself and my band. I got some information from the zone's site and checked out what they look for in music sent to them from local bands. And according to them, they get LOTS of submissions which makes me feel good to know that out of the many bands that send in music, we got on the air. I guess its not a big deal, but after playing music for several years now, it feels good to get some recognition.
Today was good, hung around the house, went to vegas, got some shoes, slept, and watched Dawsons Creek.
I think today I realized for the first time ever how much I love being an older brother, or a brother in general for that matter. I have always said how much I would like an older sibling and still think it would be awesome(too late for that though), but I am just now honestly enjoying being the older brother to my 2 younger brothers. Its cool being close with matt and sharing a lot of the same experiences and its nice being into a lot of the same things. But even more so with nick. Its been such an amazing joy to see him grow up. It seems like just yesterday my mom brought him home from the hospital. I was sooooo mad he wasnt a girl(I didnt want another brother-hahah). It kinda makes me think twice about having children. I never wanted to, but I think I see things differently now. I seriously dont know what I would do without the 2 of them. I just hope I am making as much as an amazing impact on them as their older brother, as they have made on me as my younger brothers.
