Right, so we didn't play in Raleigh. Sucks, but whatever. Except for the lack of equipment that WORKS, I reckon we had a pretty fun time with our own beer and audience of two. And bananas flambe. Mm. And crappy North Carolina-legal fireworks. And a new grill. Which is cool.

I don't suppose we ever really finished one song... mostly b/c I was lazy. And couldn't remember the words I originally had. Because I was also lazy in the past. And didn't write them down. I still liked the way it sounded. Especially thanks to the cool bass intro. And me finally understanding what everyone else was saying about timing. You know. 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + It starts on 3.

And I really like the other new song. Which was called Flavored Wine. Which had a neat vocal melody. And words. And idea. Not that you could tell by listening last night. I reckon that mostly started with a low end minimalistic power chord dumb ass progression, which eventually had more notes added and then another sweet bassline stuck underneath. Yeah. This (and the new-ish "Unbalance") was the main thing I wanted to play in front of other people.

mp3's soon... maybe... on the other site.
maybe.

HeroesCon is soon.
I couldn't sleep last night, so I got my list completed.
Would like to finish:

Silver Surfer vol. 3 (need TWO issues)
Wolverine vol. 1 (need FOUR issues... and, wtf, issue 146... damn)

And punch some holes in:
Supernatural Thrillers (mostly, I want a NM #2)
Swamp Thing vol. 1 (2-7, hopefully)
Tomb of Dracula (20-23)
Man-Thing vol.1 (2-4)
Iron Man vol. 1 (7-10,NM #55)
Werewolf by Night (a NM #1)
Nick Fury vol. 1 (2,3)
wow. If I accomplish all of that, I will be extremely happy.
and broke.
Now isn't that exciting?

oh yeah. White Stripes on Tuesday. Foo Fighters 2 weeks thereafter. Cool.
