So.....

Besides my car breaking down on my way to class on Monday, my week's gone pretty good. My band has a gig on October 16th at a Halloween party in Ofallon, Missouri, with Sicfaist and my project's coming along pretty good. I have a bunch of people lined up for interviews ranging from death metal vocalists to concert promoters. I also have tickets to some of the upcoming Sunday Night Local Shows at Pop's in Sauget, Illinois, and I have been given permission to tour the club with the owner which is pretty cool. Aside from that I don't think I have anything else to say. So, until next time, deuces!!!!

My Fav Metal Song (As of Right Now)

Letter to the Class

The subject that I would like to do for my project is the local metal music scene in the St. Louis Area. For the last six years I have been part of this scene and I believe there is a lot of things with this group that people have to learn. People today only see what goes on with the last part of the show, when the bands get up on the stage and show you what they've got. What I hope to do with this project is show you what goes on before, during and after the shows. I plan to get tons of interviews with the musicians and people involved with the shows that I have come to know over the last six years and let you in on the little tricks and secrets that happen with the venues and just how they get the bands to sound so perfect. The process isn't as pretty as some of you may think. There is a lot of information out there and I hope, with your permission, I can look into this group and show you just how awesome it is.
