Figure it's time I get back to bloggin'. I'm actually now a contributor for the Bay Area Metal Coalition, which I just launched with Matt Morales. Yes, the guitarist of Run Amok. I should also mention that Run Amok has reformed! We jammed this past Saturday and it rocked. I'm totally stoked we're playing again.
But anyway, The BAMC has been created as a way to make up our lack of promoting ourselves last time we were a band. We're going whole hog and trying for a revolution here in SF. I have no idea how far we'll go, but I'm looking forward to the journey there. Tell your friends (Freeze Ray: Stops Time).
I now work in the paint department. Not too sure if I like it more than the garden department where I was previously working, but I may have to give it the edge. There's less to maintain, there's usually something to do, and making paint makes the day go by quicker ('cause I don't think about how bored I am). All in all, could be worse, I suppose.
I bought a new bass recently. An Aria Pro II series PE-200. It's a Japanese made copy of an old Gibson bass from the 70's, The Ripper. It's got a pelham blue finish that's seen better days (awesome), a chunky neck that's not too wide (sweet), and controls that I still haven't quite figured out. It's got tone to spare and MOJO for days.
Xander interns at a feminist art gallery in SF called Femina Potens, which is owned and operated by Adult movie star and bondage model Madison Young. When I found out, I was very intrigued, plus I'm a fan, so Xander went in and got me autographed porn! Madison even signed the sleeve, not the plastic, so it won't come off from *ahem* repeated handlings.
And of course, Run Amok. We have a new logo (made by me), some new jams that will become songs, and a renewed sense of purpose. Check us out yeah?
