Two weeks later and I've just today been allowed to start calling people back to work starting next week. On this day one year ago it was 76F. We have a forecast for a possible 1 inch of snow tomorrow night. Thank you very much Mother Nature. I'll just go back to twiddling my thumbs... Write comment (0 Comments)

2 Large Pizzas & a Case of Beer

Written by Corey

Satin Jones has managed to get together twice within the same month. That's a far cry from how it used to be leading up to our last hiatus. Getting married, having kids, buying houses and such can really put something like a band on the rocks while stacking the odds against it continuing on or getting back together after things slow down again - if they ever do. I have to say - it feels good playing again. My wife said to me a couple of months ago, while I explained to her how the home studio set-up can now record 8 tracks simultaneously, "Now all you need is a band..!" Poof.... It's like magic. (Good thing Dave's about to turn into an old bastard...) Write comment (0 Comments)

Back to Work

Written by Corey

I'm back to work on Monday. Despite the cabin fever, and the permanent imprint of my ass embedded in the far left cushion of our couch, getting up and getting things going is always a bit of a struggle. Making the necessary phone calls to see who's coming back to work, arranging interviews and equipment demos, contacting old members and outings, etc.... Can't wait! After four months of doing nothing but eat, sleep, and (proudly) take care of Max, it's a little tough getting my butt up off the couch and into 'work' mode. Looking at the little guy sitting here beside me, I've three days left and I can already feel the separation anxiety kicking in. Write comment (0 Comments)

Lewis Black

Written by Corey
Monday, 10 March 2008
Last night we went to see Lewis Black for my father-in-law's belated (and belated again) birthday. I had seen a few of Mr. Black's performances on comedy central and had come to believe I was sufficiently prepared for an hour or so of his exasperatedly 'pissed-off' behavior. What I wasn't prepared for was the 'lead-ups' to his foul-mouthed, spit-ridden, I'm-having-a-heart-attack exasperations. The man is a master craftsman of epic proportions. The way he can reel a crowd in and let it out over and over and finally set it up for the perfect fall was nothing short of comic genius. The act was solid top to bottom to the point my own stomach, cheeks, and throat ached from exertion for hours afterward. The photo on the left is the view from our seats, although it seems further away than it really was. The photo on the right is in reference to a reference made by Mr. Black during one of his tirades. We thought he was joking. (Thanks Dick) Write comment (0 Comments)
