July 6: Edmonston After leaving the glory and triumph that came with Halifax, we traveled onward and upward. hilarious. By the time we got to the house we were playing in we were all totally hopped up on goof balls and ready to play in Mario's top floor apartment. It was 600 degrees inside and we couldn't open a window because we would get nois... Read More

Neighbourhood Watched

Woke up to a conversation between two chirping women this morning. Apparently our van was parked in their parking spot. Fair enough. But did she have to call parks and recreation before knocking on our window to speak to us first? And yes I know for a FACT she knew we were in the van sleeping because later a guy who was working near by told us ... Read More

I slept at Justin's place everyone else slept in Steady Brook. Wednesday: Woke up in Corner Brook, sat around for a while petting dogs. We then decided to go swimming. We drove up to Stead...

In the mix

Sat, 06 Jun 2009 05:38:33 -0500

So we are almost finished this crazy moth long endeavor. The first mix sounds alright. Needs a lot of tweaking but it's a good jump off point. Glenn and I are mixing today for a while and then fingers crossed it'll be off to be mastered in 2 days or less. Art work is all done. Sent Randy the rough mixes and he's into it. Most everyone who's... Read More

The album went into mixing mode as of Monday. Breaking our backs to try and finish it by Friday. This thing has been a stressful time burglar/fun filled romp. I hope it doesn't suck.

I'm currently at work. Tour doesn't kick off for a month or so yet. Tour dates are still not finalized. Lots of work to do, but it's gonna be worth it. I need 800 bucks and a sleeping bag as far as I can tell. Plus rent for 3 months. I don't honestly know if I'll have enough cash. Hopefully we'll get a touring bursary and that will float us....
