I am starting my vacation tomorrow. Hannah and I are going to be spending two weeks visiting family and friends in Washington State. I also hope to get a bunch of people together for a Local H concert that is happening in Seattle while we are visiting. I will do my best to post about the trip when I can.

Local H Concert In June
I am so excited about this! Hannah and I have a vacation planned for the first two weeks of June. We have planed to get out of Juneau for a little bit and head back home to Washington State. We will get to see our family and friends. We are both very exited about this.
I just noticed on Local H’s (The Best Fucking Band In The World) MySpace page, that they have a show planned for Seattle on the 11th of June at the Chop Suey club. It just seems like luck that we would be in town the same time they will be.
Hannah has never seen a Local H Show before. So I am exited to take her. I am also trying to gather as many of our friends together to go with us. It should be a lot of fun. I can’t wait!
The Presidents Of The United States Of America
Who would have thought that I would have had to move to Juneau Alaska and live here for two years before I would ever see The Presidents Of The United States Of America in concert? I think I stood a better chance of seeing them while I still lived in Washington State. Oh how little I know.
So this last Saturday The Presidents Of The United States Of America played a show at a local club here in town. I got tickets for myself and Hannah as a surprise thing to do this weekend together. We went out to dinner and then went to the second story club to watch the show.
It was pretty great. It’s not everyday that we get a band like this to come to town. The band’s stage presents was very professional and they were all very funny. All their popular songs were played with a sprinkling of new ones. The crowed was involved in quite the mosh-pit. But when The Presidents Of The United States Of America played “Lump” everyone one in the place went nuts and started jumping up and down to the beat of the song with their hands in the air. It was a whole lot of fun and I am really glad we went.
New Local H Album
I am back having survived the flu epidemic of ’08. I can’t express to you how bad the flu was this year. I ran a fever of 103 and barely got out of bed the whole time. All that remains for me to get over is this damn cough.
As I am getting settled back into my normal flow of things, going to the work and the gym and what not. I have read online that my favorite band of all time, Local H has a new album coming out!
The new album is titled “Twelve Angry Months” and is due out in May 2008.
I’m so exited I can hardly wait!
“Everybody Wants To Go For A Ride” By: Charlie and the Lonesome Cougars
Thursday night I played a show with Eric at Big Daddies place in Woodinville. It was very fun. Everyone seemed to like the music and a lot of people from Eric’s work showed up so that was also cool.
The down side to playing a place like Big Daddies is they force you to use their house drum kit. As a result the drums were not in tune, it’s not setup how I would normally play and I went through 3 drumsticks.
From the sound of things I will be getting a CD copy of the show, which I plan to put up as an MP3 for downloading.
Last night was probably the last time I will get to see Eric for a while. He is off to Chicago for work. Going to have to plan a trip to see him at some point. Maybe play a few more songs.
Take care of yourself Buddy!
