Power had a fantastic jam today. Getting things tight for our first show. I thought I'd drop another blog about more history, of me, and power.

I've been listening to metal, punk, rock n roll, and hardcore for just about ten years now. It's been the biggest part of my life for the longest time. Since my family didnt have a computer until I was 18, the first few years of getting in to music, I did it the old way, buying cds, reading the thanks list, writing down band names going to record stores looking for said bands, picking the ones with the coolest cover art and best song names and buying it.

I've been playing in bands since I was 15/16 years old. Norm, who plays guitar/vocals in power and I have been playing music together on and off since then. Our first real band we did together. We've kept that going all these years, and power is the next step.

All of my old bands were have fun, every single band I've ever done was a style of music I enjoyed and I went for it. Some bands only lasted a few shows, some lasted a few years, a few demoes. Both Norm and I still have another band, outside of Power. Most people reading this know. Bad Moons are, and will always be a band. Thats awhole other story.

POWER.

All these years of playing and POWER is something I've always wanted to do. I'm not sure why it took this long to happen.


Our line up is trio, we like it that way. Our goal, is to write tons of music, play as many shows as we can, and write more songs. Writing music is just about the most fun I can have. Power has got me focused on writing. I've been riffing out every single day, working on songs, riff ideas, song lyrics, vocal parts. I'm in love with this band. I'm fucking stoked on it, people should be stoked on the music they make. It's also got me stoked on other music again, there was a point for awhile that I wasn't even that excited on music. I slowed way down on buying new tunes, and hardly listened to what I had. I'm back to being really stoked on the old and new. It feels good to be back in the mind set.

This rant has no point. Music fucking rules. Playing music is fucking awesome.

Power jammed tonight and it was a blast.

Until later,
Aaron.
