Holy Hiatus Batman

Loading...

Well I am back, after 7 months? Let me give a brief fill in as to where I've been and what I've been up to, and reasons for my hiatus. Back around May I started working as a drum & Stage Tech for the band Mullett. I got to travel all over the country this summer and the coming summer looks even busier. My family dropped the news that the family house was being sold so 30+ years of items had to be cleared out. So, as one can imagine that was a tough and tedious process. And I also started a new job working for United Staging & Rigging. And of course I have my few bands that I play out in and practice with. So for a little while time wasn't very abundant. I didn't do any drum work in that time, and am actually just starting to get things going again. I've missed this place greatly and could feel it missing from my life. Good to be back among you gentlemen.

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
