All right, I'm back. This post will cover 2 topics. Neither of them is political, but they're still important.
First of all, Monroeville put on one of the best fireworks displays they've ever had. It was 30 minutes long, with a bunch of effects that I hadn't seen before. I think they were trying to make up for the 15 minute long crapfest they pulled last year. Anyway, iMovie is making my files way too big for some reason, so I had to compress these videos a lot, but I do have them. Each of the Quicktime movies linked below is one half of the grand finale. The quality of the video is low, but you can tell what's going on. Check 'em out:
Now, on to topic number 2:
I just made a major update to the Music Page. I added a short video clip of a drum solo I recorded, along with lyrics for 3 (count 'em) new songs. 2 of those songs, "Growing Down" and "Chainsaw," also include audio samples.
I don't like to brag, and I don't know how many of you have actually checked out the music page, but I really think the audio for "Growing Down" is one of the coolest drum tracks I've recorded so far. It's in 3/4 time, with a lot of hi-hat action and bottom-heavy fills. I highly recommend listening to it. It's only a minute long, in any case.
Okay, that's enough shameless self-promotion. I just wanted to point out what I've been up to.
