It's coming....TRUTHandRIGHTS

" This band is truly the best thing that has happened for me in a decade, HANDS DOWN. In fact, I also believe it is some of the best work I've ever done, which for Leeway fans, it's a hard to top accomplishment(I see by the T in ya pics ur a fan). We will drop 5 songs(first week in May) on our soon to be debut/LP, which will be released at the end of the summer. "
"My whole being is so open and through the influence and inspiration my boys have given me I can go higher than ever before..... it's been like I'm in some 1984 time capsule, and I'm starting my first band, and I'm in some kinda re-birth. I have not felt or looked this good in over 15 years, and you will feel it.....the only way anyone can stop me now is by killing me..... TRUTHandRIGHTS is a runaway freight train breaking through all boundaries. The concept of TRUTHandRIGHTS is a new REVOLUTION in this thing of ours, HC. I no longer call it a scene. It's worldwide now now, and I have fans younger than my songs. "
"TRUTHandRIGHTS is a revolution for a better lifestyle. HC is not a sound at all.... it is a lifestyle, a celebration of a life on your terms, and each of you can right grab a hold of this thing and make your own history and turn this all around for the better."- Eddie Sutton

All I'm saying is, get ready. I'm very excited to hear this new band. He said end of April music should be dropping on the Myspace. Go add TRUTHandRIGHTS on Myspace, shoot them a message, I promise you'll get a reply from man himself, Eddie Sutton.

PRAISE! (pt 2)

A good coreman informed me today that PRAISE put up an online merch store! I love Praise. I love hardcore merch. You should have already PRE ORDERED their 7" coming out on REACT RECORDS, "Changing. Healing" but in case you didn't, you can order it along with three tshirt designs HERE.
Don't sleep on PRAISE! You can lurk them on their own blog .

*this picture is from their show in Baltimore with Cro Mags, Set to Explode, and Killing Time*

I FOUND SOMETHING I THOUGHT I HAD LOST

I swore someone stole my Sheer Terror tape but after searching through some boxes in storage tonight.. YO!

I also found Swamp Thing tape and Beastie Boys tape that I forgot I even had.

Today's been a really good day. My cousin went across the Bay to get her third ultrasound (she's having twins) and my other cousin asked me to watch Ryleigh (her 1 1/2yr old). I love hanging out with Ryleigh. She's so smart and talkative! Not to mention, she has a great sense of humor. We did a lot of fun activities. There were ducklings on our way home from walking the dogs on a trail. That was the highlight of the day for me. She really liked walking Sophia. I let Ryleigh hold her leash while I walked Cambria. It was very cute. We made homemade pizza for dinner and popsicles for dessert. She painted my nails after I painted hers. My nails are now lime green, but not really on my nails at all, mostly on my fingers.
I'm going to be a great mommy. I'm stoked for that day to come in the future.

Kentucky

I'm also moving back to LOUISVILLE! in less then 2 weeks.

I can't even put into words how happy I've been the last two months. Between visiting Louisville, Kelly coming back to Chinco with me for a week, United Blood, deciding to move back to Louisville, doing well in school, getting my job back at The Gardner School...SHIT IS SO TIGHT.
I am MOST excited to see my friends on a daily basis. Fuckin right.

There's a new Southern KY hardcore/metal messageboard. It's entertaining for the most part.

So many good shows are happening in the next few months in Louisville. Hopefully, Louisville hardcore scene will make a comeback (as far as shows go).

I also think I might be going to see RZL DZL in Columbus, OH (if the $$ is right) the day after I move back. If I don't get to go, I still get to see Touche Amore so... WIN WIN WIN WIN.

Strawberry Cupcakes

I also made breakup cupcakes for my friend Emily. They were yummy.

Mix for Dusty

I made a mix for my friend Dusty back in Kentucky. It's a pretty cool mix. I'm sending it to him tomorrow but I thought I would share it with some of yall!

BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE

There is always room for positive change.

Lately Mosh

I haven't done a daily mosh in awhile..

Tuesday, April 13, 2010

Every living entity runs from pain but searches for happiness. For some it's tv, some intoxication, and some sexuality. We're all infected with the disease of I ME and MINE. The battle cry for revolution and the battle cry for change falls on deaf ears. The hatred we have for one another and the hatred we have for ourselves ultimately will keep us down.
