WINTERSLEEP

Wow. A lot has transpired since the last post. 3 tracks done, Loel & Tim shot a couple guns & a whole lotta badminton^. We have thought about our skills at this lovely sport, the development of our collective overall skill set over the course of the time that we started, and we have decided that while we haven’t really improved in any athletic sense, the games have “almost certainly gotten more aggressive” [I think this is the beginning point in any search to become pro in whatever sport one might try his pro luck at?]. I digress.

A little update: Three tracks tentatively, respectively titled “Martyr,” “Rapture” and “Papa Time”. Working on song 4, which doesn’t really have a title yet. Will eat some peanut butter cookies*, play a little badminton, drink a little milk or water or Sledgehammer & get back to you on that one. Actually there is a tentative title for it, but I think I will wait til the next post to reveal!! Oh the Suspense, capital S. Muhahaha!!

Oh yeah, Badminton update. Almost forgot. Meats N Cheese up 6-3^^. There is a $10 wager on every match. Usually a best 2 out of 3 dealy. As I said, we’re still pretty much as good or bad as we used to be, but definitely some more aggression happening. I don’t really know why you’d want to see this thinking on it now, but we filmed a bunch and might stick it up here at some point, unless there is some serious objection from anyone who frequents this page. Okay. “Das ist alles” or “Dat’s it” in Canada speak. Stay tuned.

 ^Our friend/soundman/tour manager Donny Cooper came down for a couple days with a rental car, mini pizzas & a pack of Sleemans, tracked some shakers & BVs, drank/shared said Sleeman’s, hung out in the general way that friends hang out at these things, and also grabbed some mean badminton footage.  That will be up soon.

*I found out today that PB cookies make me happier in general. Like, if I’m in a bad mood & someone shows up with peanut butter cookies, my spirits will hop a bit [my spirit hops].

^^ The picture says 5-2 but make no mistake it is 6-3 now. YYYYesss!

> Tim shaved his beard sort of & Loel & Tim shot a gun for the first or third time in their lives. Paul was scared of hearing damage and/or of being shot, so he went inside.
