Drum/recording stuff?!

Since Matt posts all about his guitar gear and what-not, I'm gonna start soon posting stuff about my drums, as well as our studio 'Jane-Doll Studios' and it's gear (since our first two records and the balboa split were all recorded there). So stay tuned, for the info be flowing before ya know it.

Family reunion - a synopsis.

A meeting? What family reunion has a meeting, with a historian, head
corrispondant, and treasurer? Mine. No one talks to each other (at
least outside of their immediate family), unless it's to make mildly
witty banter as if we were stangers we needed to amuse. Boring people.
Talks of cancer, lineage in diseases, hereditary problems, and more.

Like a business meeting, there are reading of past meetings, and
reminiscing of old times through regimented time sheets written by a
secretary age 86, writing in chicken scratch. Collection plate to pay
for the hall for the next year, where half the people that are here,
will not be. They trap you by having the meeting after the food,
because you can barely move let alone what you wish to do, run away.

'Prototype' a game footage video. Awesomesauce.

Been playing a game called Prototype lately. It's really fun. It's sort of if you combined GTA4 with an X-Men game and then said "Blow s**t up, (while trying to figure wtf is going on)". I'm enjoying myself. I haven't gotten too far into the story yet, but it seems interesting. Anyway, I just posted a video of game footage I took using Fraps, a video capture program for video games. A little editing in After Effects, some suspenseful music, and viola! You got yourself one sweet looking game teaser. Enjoy.
