The band is going well. We are building an arsenal that we plan to use in a sonic attack on the minneapolis indie scene.

We've been crammed into our dark little unfinished basement for the last 2 weeks, work-shopping material, annoying our bitter old neighbor, Hal, drinking cheap beer, plotting to take over the country (not the world, we're simply just not that ambitious).

The sound is coming along nicely. Sort of an At the drive-in, sunnyday real estate, rock n roll thing... but not.

Oh yeah, the name is The Wake-Up Line.

I've been absorbing the newest cloud cult album. It's refreshing to hear a different style of music created locally. And, although the lead singer is a dirty hippie, i can look past that. His intentions are good and he seems a bit less hypocritical than most. And he sure as hell can bring the rock. Not to mention, there's a song of just princess bride quotes. How can you not love that?

"As long as you're happy.
was i just a car crash?
a scribbled note in your ten year old journal?
was i just your stunt man?
A temporary stand in for your hollywood superman?
Will you think of me while you're watching your NBC sitcom?" - Cloud Cult
