8 , 2008 Man do I love Homegrown! Pt.2
Saturday is hands down the best day
of Homegrown. For those who have to play that night it can be tricky
because the party starts at noon at the kickball game but it can be
done, as I've done it many times.
The kickball game is a vivid reminder
why we all play music instead of sports and drink beer instead of
gatorade. The unathleticism is laughable, with any real athletic plays
calling into question whether the person is actually a musician at
all. I played on Friday night's team because of the 'Tacks and Bone
and we outmanned Sat. night 2 to 1. Not that it mattered because the
20 outfielders we had couldn't catch a damn thing in left or center
field.
After a few Harvey Wallbangers,
HotRod and I assisted a still-drunk-from-the-night-before Chad from
Accelleratti in his pitching with slaps to the face in the final few
innings, and by playing bunt blockers. I've heard rumblings of disgust
over the slowness of the game due to the 3 of us and our hijinks but
anyone who says the kickball game takes too long is clearly not having
a good enough time. More... |

My
band, the SuperTacks, have finished our new album entitled "Never
Have So Many Been Rocked By So Few". It came out great and we're
very excited about it. You can DOWNLOAD
IT FOR FREE, as well as our first album, and my solo material
here.
Homegrown has come and gone again this
year and that is sad, it was truly a great time. This year had it
all and the festival just keeps getting better every year. Read more
about it here.
As I mentioned before, I'm set to begin
work on my next album. I'm always excited to start a new recording
project but these new songs have me busting at the seams. It is, however,
a very big project in terms of how many songs I have so it will be
interesting to see how it all shakes out.
Things are very much in the early stages
so I don't have much else to tell you right now about it. I'll be
updating again soon when things get underway more and hopefully I'll
have some new demos to post soon. Until then, - Ryan - |
