We played a show tonight in New London in a small all ages room called the Eclectic Ballroom. Normally these shows are kinda run-of-the-mill. No offense, cuz we always put ourselves into every show.
Tonight was something special.
Let me start by describing how playing live feels during a good set. It's like an adrenaline rush. One minute you are putting your gear together, talking...

Great shows are hard to come by. I wish I could have been there.
Dropped off spectr at the airport on tuesday. Can't wait for you to come back!
Last night Adam had his birthday party. I wore a chef apron with flowers and pink hearts on it. Cooked some crazy ass chicken and cheese quessadillas for everybody. There was a spongebob pinata that got PWNED by morpunkthanu and others.

spectr is at my house! She is on vacation from Arizona checking out the good old northeast. After picking her up from the train station we went to a park with my son Coby. He was chasing geese, it was cute, they would run just ahead of him out of reach.

What a weekend it was! My best friend Adam got married on Saturday at a rock club! And there was a show going on! Prolly the sweetest punk show I'd ever been to. And definitely beat the heck out of a traditional wedding reception, ya know, old people, bad DJs, sitting around waiting to leave...This wedding was actually a party!
I'll post pics up soon...

THat sounds so awesome!
Think about bipolar musicians, writers, directors, poets, and other artists. What is it about their music or writing that connects so well with people? When they get depressed they live in an intense world of darkness. When they are happy they are on cloud 9 it's like living in a psychosis of satisfaction.

"It is often suggested that genius (or, at least, creative talent) and mental disorder (specifically, the mania and hypomania of bipolar disorder) is linked."
Famous Bipolar peeps.
It makes me feel a bit better about my bipolar disorder when I see that anyone can struggle with it, even the "beautiful people," or intelligent people. Edgar Allen Poe, Kurt Cobain, Axl Rose? WHO KNEW they could possibly be bipolar...

Anyway I don't wanna ramble, I don't know if you're affected by it yourself, but even though I'm "normal" or "level" most of the time, I choose to not take medication, so I have those hard times when the depression really grips me. Luckily, I don't have to worry too much about the mania, that's a rare occurrence. All that normally does is cause me to not sleep if I fight going to sleep when I'm actually tired, my body kicks into a slightly manic state, and then I CAN'T go to sleep when I want to.

Happy fourth of july my fellow americans. Nobody would celebrate this holiday if it wasn't tradition to drink beer and blow shit up. Wish I had more to say.

Alright another week has gone by and I'm alright.
First off, Stressbomb won a trophy at the Whalie awards for the best Punk/Ska Category! It was a fun night with a mass collection of New London area musicians all gathered in one place. It was like a who's who of the Connecticut scene. The awards were very formal and well organized. It was like our...

We played in front of a huge crowd opening for DRI last night in New London. I'm a little hungover. Spent much of the ride home arguing with wasted brandon over why its not a smart idea to hit cops in the face. Apparently I'm a sellout because I didnt punch a cop. LOL
