cinema 5 sioux center ia

AIL played the Chance tonight.

And not in a very long time have I been so tense before a show.

I was highly irritable, moody, confrontatonal, upset, everthing all at once.

But once I hit the stage, as usual, it all went away


every little piece of negative energy ive obtained over the past month was put into this set

and it was amazing.



Theres nothing like standing over your kicked over drum set, covered in blood, sweat and makeup after a job well done to a good crowd and fellow band playing that night reaction.

it makes it all worth it.

Say what you will, how the band died when mike left and blah blah fucking blah


but honestly, i love the people i play with

Jim, Justyn Monica and hell even my brother

i love what i do, i love putting together these fucking theatrics and painting myself up and putting on a show

and im quite content with the fact that im still able to go on stage with them and kick ass.


its not dead, its just not the same.


and after nights like these, i couldnt be happier with it.


...despite the fact Monicas not the actual singer..


but thats another story




once again, a shitty day leads to a good show/night.



and while im quite heated at other situations in my mind at the moment, im currently busy enjoying myself.


oh and Jim is an animal.
