| Well, my buddy and I are going to be playing for a festival type crowd at this event they put on at my school called: "Day on the Green". This is our first real performance, other times it was a song or two at a cafe, now we get a forty five minute set in front of 100-300 people. Wish me luck. |

| College. Yeah, unfortunately when we revamped our band, we didn't start up a new website. Hopefully though over summer we can kick one up with some tracks on there. |

ARTHEN I'm sending great concert vibes your way!
My life changed dramatically because of one song. (and it had nothing to do with love LOL) Play from your heart. You may never know just how much a song you play might effect someone in the crowd.
Have fun and enjoy the opportunity. I am sure this will be the first of many. |

| It went really well. My buddy broke a string, there were some technical difficulties, but it all turned out kick ass. I look forward to the next time! |

ah the string break that sucks...glad to hear it went well otherwise...did he have a backup guitar handy? or did he have to switch it after the song?..id hate for that to happen..the pressure would be on...

| We finished the song, cut it short, without some jamming at the end. Then he switched to a back up guitar that we had. |
