Mood: frazzled
musical chaos: Saosin
No, Saaa has not died.
I'm sure many of you think we're broken up, but we're not. We just are getting learned things so we can earn our degrees and get real jobs later in the future :-D
But seriously, between coming to college and missing home and everything in my world spinning upside down, I am Aaron and this is the world of Saaa. Or my end of Saaa, anyhow.
It's been over a year i believe since we've tracked for our full length cd. Heres a fact to live by: College takes away time for everything... and gives you all the free time in the world at the same time. Any college kid knows what i'm talking about.
Everything is tracked now, except for horns. Vocals came out great, I feel like I sang my ass off and we will be rockstars before the world will see it coming.
The plan: everybody comes back from college for December break. 1. Practice like madmen every single day and 2. Track Horns.
Then we wait to master the hell out of it. Then we decide how we are going to press the CDs.
For those of you who are fans of Something Worth Saving, you probably know Brett Walts. The kid has done a lot for me and he wants to start his own label, in which Saaa: The Hand You're Dealt will be the first cd release.
Everybody good/smart band who records a cd knows that in order to sell a cd, shows need to be booked like crazy. So the plan is the book a string of shows for when the CD is released so we can actually sell our years of sweat and blood to the world.
By the way, Jocko's studio "More Sound Studios" is nearly completed after thousands and thousands of dollars. It's going to be fantastic, and probably one of the nicest studios in this part of New York State.

There ya have it. We aren't dead, we're just floating along the expected path of Reality doing the college thing.
Drop me a line. Please. Talk to me about music, talk to me about life, talk to me about visiting Fredonia, talk to me about hows, talk to me about college life, etc. I'm interested.

The CD will be out soon. I say that all the time but my idea of soon is within the 2005 year. Everything takes time with this sort of thing. Summer 2005 makes the most sense to me in order for us to play shows all around.
Josh and I have started a band with Brett and JD from Something Worth Saving and our good friend Jon Picarski as frontman. We are called For The Horizon, and we have many songs written, and we will be recording a demo or an EP to be released on Cut Through the Heart Records (http://www.ctthrecords.com/) . check out our un-updated website at www.forthehorizon.com. Think of us as a mix of Saosin/Thrice/Beloved but with a more original style than anything else.
Keep in Touch.
Aaron/Saaa
