so I'm 22 now...

Yesterday was my 22nd birthday.  I didn't do anything crazy, I didn't go anywhere special, I didn't get any spectacular presents and I didn't have that "special someone" to share it with.  And the weirdest thing out of all of those is that I'm ok with them.  I'm fine not doing anything crazy, I'm fine not going out to eat at a crazy expensive restaurant or having that special someone.  I shared my birthday with good friends, staying up until 2 in the morning laughing about the stupidest things we could think of and it was amazing.  

I really have no idea why I'm writing right now....oh wait....it's because I'm deathly bored and I need to do something.  

I'm going to be moving soon.  Dan and Andy have decided to move to a place in Burbank or somewhere over there so that they can be closer to work and such.  This actually was timed better than expected because the guys in Theoria have been thinking about getting a place together so that we can have a place to live and practice that isn't ridiculously far away from all of us.  I'm very excited for the move because 1. it means we don't have to drive to Rancho Cucamonga to practice, 2. I'll be living with my best friends, 3. That will really make touring a lot easier because we'll be used to spending all that time together.  Overall, I'm excited to have the "Theoria House," there's not going to be a boring time at all and it should hopefully be very productive in the song writing department.

Welp....I have now become bored of writing this blog....thank you ADD....you make it increasingly hard to get anything accomplished....

2009 is a good year so far...

OK so right now I'm sitting in the studio with Theoria recording three of our newest songs.  Our engineer, Saki, is the engineer who recorded all of Five Iron Frenzy's stuff, a lot of stuff for Tooth and Nail, the W's from when they were around and Switchfoot, among a vast list of names.  We are in day 2 of 3 for the weekend and things are going quite swimmingly.  We have bass and drums recorded for all 3 songs and right now we're working on rhythm guitar for them.  It's such an amazing experience to be working with someone as talented and as professional as Saki.  The songs are going to sound amazing.

Monday I will be heading to Long Beach to shoot a movie.  I'm going to be in Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 as a bass player in one of the bands.  Talk about amazing! I received an email about an open casting call for people in this program I'm in called Grammy U.  I sent in a video of myself "fake" playing bass and they liked me enough to put me in!  So come Christmas time you should all go see Alvin and the Chipmunks 2, if only for the fake to see me as a high school student playing bass! 

Other than that life is good.  Classes are good, work is good...life is just good! I'll keep everyone updated on movie things and such...otherwise...peace!
