024: Push Over


Hello Ladies and Gents. Here is the link to the new comic up on RisingSidewalks. I am actually quite proud of myself, as I have been able to stay on track with this comic business for the last 2 weeks. True, that this only means I've done two new comics, but that is a very big step for me. Especially considering I was back home in Port Washington, Wisconsin most of last week and through the weekend. And yet I still managed to update on Monday! I have to give myself a pat on the back once in a while to keep my spirits up for this project. Now, all I have to do is start rolling on my senior animation project. And THAT is going to be freakin awsome.

I'll try to have one of my old flash animations up here sometime this week for people to enjoy, and (hopefully) get some laughs out of.

New Comic!

Hello everybody!

Today is a special day, because I have finally started on the reboot of my comic. The first comeback issue is available at the picture link below. Now, all I have to do is get one up for next week. *crosses fingers*. I've been trying real hard to get my priorities straight, and this is one of the things that I really want to do. Along with my music, comics and animation are my passion. I just have this horrible tendancy to...procrastinate. I'll admit it, and it has gotten me into binds before, but it is a part of who I am. But, I am attempting (yet again) to turn a new leaf. I won't make promises, because I don't want to break them, but I will try as hard as my little brain will allow to keep things on track. I hope this will also be a fun experience for me as well as my readers. Thanks for your support!

Music Update

Tony and I played a show last night at the Acadia Cafe on Franklin and Nicolet. It went extremely well I thought, considering we hadn't played a live show in a month or so.

A few bands played before and after us. We didn't get a chance to stick around for the last band from Chicago, but we enjoyed the music from the ones we did see. Particularly HeatherLyn, a songwriter and activist. Her music was politically and environmentally charged. Very beautiful voice; crystal clear. I encourage you to check her website out, where you can learn about her as well as ways to get involved in some good causes. Another solo performer did very well, his name is Phil Berbig. I don't think he has a website out there, but keep an eye out if you enjoy some great pure folk music. He did a hilarious tune about Wayzata, MN and how disgustingly 'white' it is up there, haha.

This Sunday Tony and I are planning to finish recording our CD and get the damn thing over with. Hopefully it will go smoothly and we will have a kickass CD for you to take home this month.

And...another

Here is another banner sent to me by meh friend Moonblink. It takes after our song "Scars" and here was the quote that he attached that apparently inspired him:

"...And we kissed and we held on with our fingers, And the shade has forgotten how our bodies had touched, And the branches will tighten and twist into knots, And our throats will echo this sometime after..."

It's really fun to see what people can come up with for images inspired by a song. Heh, especially when it is a song you've written. Again, many thanks to Moonblink for his support.

Another Banner


Meh friend on myspace made another banner inspired by the song 'Hope'. I just uploaded it to our myspace page and he had a listen and surprised me with this. I'm glad that our music is inspiring to people such as him. They are the ones that keep us going and make everything worth it. We have a gig this weekend and next at the Acadia Cafe (7/5/07). Check out our website or the Acadia website for information if you want to come check us out. =P

Let's Rocket!



A friend on myspace through together a little CD cover for fun in tribut to the music from my band. I thought it was pretty sweet, and very nice of him. We are still working on cranking out the CD as we speak and are looking for a July release. I'll keep everyone informed as things progress, as well as information on how to purchase the CDs.



In the meantime, check out our page for a preview of some of our songs. =P
