The Thoughts That Give Me The Creeps

It seems that every time i start a new blog, i find myself apologising for how long it has taken me to get back to the keyboard and get something down, however once again things have been hectic and I am sorry. Lot of bases to cover in this installment and I'm not quite sure where I start. The band have been busy, with tour approaching in just over two weeks, we've finally found the new fourth piece to our irony fueled puzzle. I'm not gonna say who it is, I feel some sort of suspense is in order, just keep checking the bands myspace for updates. Alongside this we went back into the studio to finish of the final pieces off our new track, I think were happy with the finished outcome and cant wait for you guys to hear it.

Thursday the 18th June saw the band playing our first show in something like 2 months, standard protocol, no band practice, Tom filling in on the role of bass for one night of home town hangouts. It was a good night in many departments, saw some good friends return to home soil from a long venture away in the states which I felt added to the positive vibe of the evening, kick starting summer for a lot of us involved in the night perhaps. I enjoyed the show immensely. I think something the band have a habit of doing now days is just going out, not really thinking, just doing. Playing a show and having fun, its something that i felt came through from us that night. It's an understatement to say I'm super stoked for the July tour with My Toy Box. I wont go into details on the events which followed the attack attack show, needless to say I woke up with my girlfriend in the sofa bed opposite, a bowl and towels surrounding my dehydrated near naked body and four empty bottles of wine in my kitchen that if could talk I'm sure would tell a story of there own.

It seems that my thoughts fluctuate all over the place at the moment. Currently battling the same old demons that have always held me back in the past, recently my feeling of content with my life has taken a bruising and although I'm happy and stable with my surroundings, the constant nagging that everything could go back to how it was a week ago or so, is something that I'm struggling to tackle. I guess only time will tell.

Until next time.
