So this is my shout out to all of the people that I've come into contact over my MANY years in pullman but it's finally time for me to move on to bigger things. I had tons of fun rocking out with all of you fools with/in Fire Under Collision. You know who you are. Portland is a scary place but I have a really great feeling about it. I know it'll be good for me. If anyone wants to see what I'm up to in the future I'll definately be on LJ and now I have a personal myspace ( http://www.myspace.com/rhythmemperor ) feel free to add me and give me a shout out every once in a while. I have a band lined up over there already and it seems things are looking up for me but as always I will think about all of the good times that I've had in this cold ass town. I'm moving to Bridgetown and entering the scene there and hopefully my career will eventually take root in the music scene as now it doesn't appear so except for playing the drums of course. We'll see who I meet down the road, cuz right now I don't know anyone and it's all about who you know. Being in a band is the right way to meet those sort of connects. If I try hard enough I will attain the goals that I shoot for. Derailment is always there but focus is the key. NEVER give up on your dreams is what I've always thought. At one point I played in a stupid country band for 2 weeks. That's how desperate I was but persistence finally paid off and I had the chance to play with a lot of great and creative musicians. I am an old cat but not old in the general scheme of life. I've only just started. Many trials and tribulations lay ahead for me and all I can hope for is that everyone that I've come across realizes that if they ever need a hand I'll be there. I'd only wish the same in return. All I have been thinking about lately is how much I miss playing shows and how much I want to unleash my new skills onto the world. Lately I've been working really hard and I know it will pay off for me when I move to Portland. I don't think that I'm going to record what I have been working on after all. I want to do it when I'm established in the new band because I really haven't had the time and have been trying to graduate from this place. Now I've gotten some sort of cold and that sucks but it's not that bad and I'll be over it soon. I hope that I can be a little of an example of how people fuck up, fall down, pick up the peices and start over again as far as my life has gone with it's ups and downs. I was worried that I wasn't going to graduate at one point but you know what they say when shit gets hard? those people who have character keep grinding on and on and on. I'm a persistent mother fucker and my parents always told me that I was too stubborn for my own good. thanks mom and dad for keeping me stubborn :)

I'll miss you all....for now :)
