the studio @ webster hall - 08.27.09

















sooo finally after some time away im back...


i apologize for the delay and for any grief it may have caused. sometimes i get caught up but i promise to try harder and get better at things. i hope you can forgive me.

so tonight we headlined a show at webster hall in nyc. it was a good night! i kinda had a feeling it would be because on my way into the city i heard the black eyed peas song "i got a feeling" like 4 times. i really think that was just for me and has nothing to do it them being really popular or that song being a radio hit. haha

so where was i? ah yes... the show. we had some cool openers too. Matt Harke, Eren Cannata and Five Times August (all seemed like realy good people). we hit the stage around 11ish. i dunno why we started so late, but the crowd was pretty full so i was happy. people tend to ask me on show days "do you get nervous before a show?" i dont. i get excited. i get really happy and pumped. honestly i love nothing more than performing in front of a jam packed room. thats the ultimate for me. and hearing a full room chear after a song is probably my 2nd favorite feeling, right next to hearing a crowd sing along to every word of a song. i dont think that could ever get old. its a mixed feeling... kind of like being so proud that people actually love your music enough to learn it by heart and also a bit taken aback like "damn, people actually love my music enough to learn it by heart??" needless to say, i was smiling ear to ear all night!! thank you to everyone who made it out. : )

another highlight to the evening was the introduction of some new members in the line up. it was the first show of our new lead guitarist Gary Warner and keys/synth player Andrew Monday. they're great musicians and both super nice guys. i'm very happy to have them be a part of The Constant.

i'm home now, packing my bags for LA. i leave at 11am and havent really started putting any clothes into my luggage. i dont know why i ever learn when it comes to things like last minute packing and such. i need to be more on time or at least work harder on trying to be.

i'll be posting blogs on my day to days in cali. i get back to nyc after labor day so if you miss me, let me know. show dates are being booked as we speak and cant even wait to be on stage again.
