Update on my band status[views:17154][posts:68]_____________________________ [Feb 9,2009 2:12pm - BSV ""] Well after 3 years of madness, I'm no longer in Sexcrement. After investing thousands of dollars from my own pocket towards recordings, rent, gear, gas, lofty show guarantees-it's clear that we are just not on the same level as musicians and our friendships have suffered dearly because of this. I would love for nothing more to play several shows a year supporting national acts as well as tour around the world and our country but it's clear that the other members are not interested in those goals and lack the motivation and passion that I wear on my sleeve at all times. I'm bitter and frustrated that many of these emotions have been unexpressed and poorly communicated throughout the past year which is a shame since we were once a solid core of brothers that would do anything for eachother. It's clear that it's time to move on and work with people who are determined to succeed and push themselves as musicians to the best of their ability. At the same time, I've made it clear that Blue (Dysentery, Parasitic Extripation) is the ONLY bass player in the region that can fill my shoes and not make that band lame. So I wish him the best of luck with this endeavor. I'm extremely thrilled to be working now with DECONFORMITY. We will be changing the name in the near future in order to accomodate the new material that we've been working on for the past two months. This is an excellent core of musicians and performers who have all grown up with each other (4 of the 5 members live within a mile of eachother on the same street) while writing nearly 40 songs throughout the past 3.5 years. I'm also the lead singer which has been a stimulating new challenge, constantly pushing myself to deliver on a different level and scale than any of my past experiences playing bass. Currently we're recording a demo and booking shows for the spring. We're unleashing new material live on Stress Factor on Febuary 26, so tune in! After playing two session tours with NEURAXIS, I can confidently say I'm playing the best bass of my life, and it's time for me to push my skills to a new level. It's a natural choice for me to work with ABNORMALITY. I've been rehearsing the demo tracks with Mike and Jay and there is some steady progress. Once Jeremy has his wrist back to full strength (he broke it back at the end of November) we'll be rehearsing reguarly and playing shows again. I'm very stoked to be working with this crew as well. Jay has been a close friend of mine for nearly 10 years. Mike has been one of the most stand up guitarists I've ever played with going back to our time together in ASCENDANCY and I value his dedication and attention to detail. This band really needs some bass and I hope I do them justice. Hope to see you fuckers at shows! Meet me in the front to headbang! |

It just goes to show how demanding it is being in one of the only decent MA metal bands left. Hopefully nothing turns into anything personal. |

| _________________________________________ [Feb 9,2009 3:29pm - largefreakatzero ""] I'm at 250 right now. I could tie one hand behind my back for a handicap match. |
| _________________________________ [Feb 9,2009 3:31pm - niccolai ""] I'm right around 200, I'd be willing. Not that I have anything personal against dwyer, but I think this has the potential to be pretty funny and make aarons broke ass some money so he can afford to keep taking pictures of us. I know a gym that will host it and possibly have some bands play before the 'main event' I just typed out like 20 paragraphs, but this probably should go in a new thread. this one is Josh's. |
