Drinking is good for the soul.

There is nothing like being drunk all Sundhey long.

it took me 10 min to write that.

then another 3 to write THAT...

then another 4 to re-read everything I wrote and go back and edit and correct spelling....

Then I deleted it all ..like...wtf is this bullshit crap.......then I was like....fuck it.... its my journal...Ill post whatever I want....

Then I tried to remember what I wrote the first time....then I went back and wrote it all again....more or less like it was the first time...

Then I lost all train of thought and went and drank some more.....then came back and realised that this stupid window was still open with a post that was unfinished.....

Then I deleted it because it was gay....

Then I remembered what I wrote and wrote it all again and was like....now I remember what I was making a post about!

Then I realised I never really had a point in the first place.

Then I decided it was all just too gay... then I stopped writing.

wow.....long time

I was just sitting down to work on some music and decided to update my journal for the first time in..... oh....months... haha

Im really loving Charlotte....its a beautiful city...

I started a new job when I moved here back in Jan... I managed to use that to move to a different position for a freakin awesome German based company (that I will not mention) that owns Audi, Volkswagen, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghni, Bentley, Skoda and Seat.....needless to say.... my job fuckin' rules.............Its really odd to have spent the majority of my life as a broke ass musician or wannabe musician... working jobs that worked around my rehearsal and show schedules.....I managed to always do that somehow...and had fairly cool jobs at the same time actually........but...at the age I am....to suddenly change gears and put music on a.. side burner... and move into the corporate world....is......strange.... to say the least. But... I got lucky.... Got a freakin cool job now... kick ass glass office (!) ...and now Im finally at a point where I can start fitting in music once again....I gotta admit......I really miss performing live.....and I miss playing my bass.....anyway...its time for music to be part of my life again now! wew!

Im trying to decide between an Audi A6 and an Audi A3 right now......I love the way they both drive.....both very different cars.....but both are fuckin' FAST.

Oh yah.....I have a new fave beer... heh.... A German beer called EKU 28.... its $16 a six pack (!).. but its also 11% alcohol! .....wow... that shit ummmm kicks ass.....and Im gunna go buy some more at Earth Fare down the block as soon as I finish this last Spaten!

Being back in NC is nice.... I went with my lil Roxy girl to see my nephew, Xavier, play in some big deal baseball tournament this past weekend.... hes only 9 but very gifted.... Hes in some Accelerated Sports Institute for baseball....his coach is some former pitcher for the Atlanta Braves *shrug*......but it was actually kinda fun going to the game and being the loud uncle yelling at the umpire and the fat kids on the other team haha...


anyway..... enough babbling about shit nobody cares about! time for some EKU 28!


Hi to my friends I havent talked to in a long time.

Spiritual Bats




The 1999 EP "Sacrament" by Italian deathrock band, Spiritual Bats, is now available thru In Aeternum.

This is an outstanding band that you should check out if you are not familliar with their work.
Stay tuned to the In Aeternum news board for exciting news about the new project The spiritual Bat


"The Spiritual Bats" project was conceived in 1992 by Dario Passamonti (Alchemisti Painters) and Matteo Bracaglia. Being a painter, Dario composed the music out of the need of transmuting Image into Sound. Matteo was the singer and author of the lyrics. The vinyl EP "Spiritual Bats" was recorded in 1993. The project was destined to have a new line up for each recording, but always featured artwork by the Alchemisti Painters (Biennial of Venice, 1986 Art and Alchemy section), as well as their installations and projections during live performances. The performances were multi-medial excursions, or live rituals, rare apparitions, balancing between Image and Sound.
