Acoustic Recordings / Big Casino
Me and Jeff were hanging out in my apartment yesterday recording parts for an acoustic version of a new song called “Narrow Miss”, and I managed to convince him to play a cover of the Jimmy Eat World song “Big Casino”… If things go as planned, we’ll probably have some more footage of us recording in my apartment over the next week or so. We’ve got a bit of downtime before we hit the road again in November so we decided it would be fun to experiment with some acoustic stuff. Sorta like doing some early pre-production for a future album. Who knows, maybe we’ll even release these acoustic demos in one form or another if they turn out good enough. >> read more

Diamonds in this coalmine called me
Played a fun show at Sugar Nightclub a couple nights ago with our good friends in Armchair Cynics. They’ve really upped the ante lately with the addition of a Def Leppard-esque stage production including multiple smoke machines, lasers, flickering strobe lights, and homemade fluorescent light stacks. I wish I would have filmed one of their songs to give you a real picture of what we’re talking about; but for now just slide Poison – Live, Raw, & Uncut into your dvd player, mute the audio, and crank Armchair Cynics “Bang” up to eleven on your boom box. You’ll get the idea. Our set was really fun and it was great to see some fans singing along to some of our songs. My girlfriend Cherylann was kind enough to film part >> read more

Good times, coming back again…
Touring is pretty neat. It’s kinda like when dads go on a fishing trip. Nothing but the open road, hanging out with good bros, a complete lack of personal hygiene, and of course excessive amounts of beer. We hit the road this past weekend for a couple rock shows with our good friends in the band Maurice. This was our first trip with them, and it didn’t disappoint. I only wish we could have continued along with them on their journey out to Alberta the following week because I’m sure that would have been epic. Things started off in Vancouver at The Media Club on Thursday. We were excited because in addition to Maurice, our label-mate from Toronto, Billy The Kid, was performing an acoustic set. Definitely check out her >> read more
