Hey guys hows it goin! (Hopefully this stays in the Lounge, Pleeasee ) Well yes I am still alive, though many brushes with death in the past week. I landed myself in the hospital for depression bout a month ago. Everything that I seemed to like and enjoy was just Blah, i didnt have a purpose to get up (cept my girlfriend, kudo's to you). So I got treated, got some medication and I was out again on my two feet with my guitar back around me. The band I was in wasnt too well structured or anything, so I left, A few people contacted me to join a band with them but we had different musical intentions so I just left that. I went on and formed my own band, called Morning After Pill, with a great singer, an accomplished drummer, and a bass player who opened up for Silverstein. Since then things have been going great, recorded some songs (ill talk about that in a minute). Though things turned to the worst a few days ago. I had a major panic/anxiety attack. My heart rate went to an insane speed, i couldnt breath, and i didnt know who i was or what was going on, it passed and i went home that night. When I got home it happened again, scared, I went to the hospital. I got told it was my caffeine/sugar intake causing it. So basically I cant drink pop, coffee, or have chocolate. Its horrible, but I want to be alive so what can yah do. But here I am now, sitting at home, glad to be here, lol. Yeah its been an interesting year to say the least, playing some shows around here and the Ottawa Valley. Its rocked. but with my new band things are going really great. We have 10 shows lined up throughout the summer, and we are planning to go into the recording studio soon to do a 5 track EP cd of our stuff. A label is interested in us, called Black Box Records. Though id love to get onto Sub Pop Records ( they managed Nirvana).. but theyre in seattle so that would mean moving down there. But yeah, im glad to see WF is still alive and kicking, I love this place, though my figures are boxed up and shoved in a dark closet, I still love this community, and hopefully ill have more time to come back here.
Itd be really cool if you guys could check out my band here : www.purevolume.com/themorningafterpill . Our hit song on there is Shouldnt See My Face.
