| Hey,
I know that It has not yet been a month, but I have some breaking news concerning my band that I must let you peep's in on. We had A band meeting a few days ago, and after talking for a while, we made the decision... to break up. Hahaha! Just kidding, Were not breaking up. But we have decided at this point (drum roll please) to add a fourth member to our band! His name is Brandon Canada and he is part Mexican (that has nothing to do with him being in the band... I just thought you might like to know). He's going to play guitar in the band, which should open up a lot of doors for us to improve. Well, just wanted to give you that update, C U. -JOEL P.S. Just to let ya know: the quote I put up a few days ago from the band "Demon Hunter" (there a christian band by the way), was a song called "The Soldier's Song" (need I say more... no). The band felt that they should make a song honoring the men and woman who are fighting for our freedom. Which is good. Even if you don't like our president and even if you don't support the war, we should at least support the people who are defending us. Here's the whole song: "Through the clouds of fallen ash,
A lonely mother’s cry
Among the fields of broken glass
The loyal few will arise
Faith now regained
Finding strength within the void,
A raging fire ignites
A spark of ever-burning power
And conviction to fight
Pride be your name
They will spit upon the honor that
You guard with your life
And run to hide in selfish fear
When threat of death is in sight
Lay down your shame
[Pre-chorus]
Armed with resistance and blind to the cost
The say your purpose is mindless and lost
But we don’t adhere to the slander they spill
We mourn with your losses and stand by your will
[Chorus]
These tears we spill
They haunt us still
The cries of the weak lie quiet in sleep
Beneath our feet
We are the sons of holy wrath,
A shining light in the dark
The ones who walk amongst despair,
No sign of fear in our hearts
Stand in death’s way
Shut out the voice of mindlessness,
Open your eyes to the truth
Believe the words that stand the test
And not the slurs of the youth
You’re not what they say
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
Turn over the tables and watch them run
You’ll be the weapon they can’t outgun
[Chorus]" P.S.S. Just so ya know, no one won the prize... OH WELL!!!

| Hello,
So how's it going? It's been a while since I've updated my site, so I thought I might as well do my one month check in right now. Well, our bands going well. We are keeping up with practicing pretty well... but were just a little short on shows at the moment. I spoke to some one from a local church who said he wants to hook us up with a gig some time, were just not sure when that will be. Hopefully, we will get a chance to play in front of some people again fairly soon. Rehearsals for "42nd Street" are going well. We have another one in the morning... the fun never stops. At least I'm staying busy. It's better then sitting around the house doing nothing. And the show is pretty fun, so it's all good. Well, I have to go now. Because I've run out of interesting things to say, and if I go any further in this weblog I will start to sound very ridiculous. See ya'! AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! KILLER COW!!! Oh... sorry. Told ya I sounded ridiculous. -JOEL "We are the sons of holy wrath a shining light in the dark. The ones who walk amongst despair no sign of fear in our hearts, stand in death’s way. Shut out the voice of mindlessness open your eyes to the truth. Believe the words that stand the test and not the slurs of the youth, you’re not what they say.
Turn over the tables and watch them all run... you’ll be the weapon they can’t outgun." -Demon Hunter
P.S. Special prize to any one that hasn't heard the song above before and can guess what it's about.

| Wow, I must be really out of it. It's been over a month since I last updated. Oh well, I never was much of a computer person any way. I have been officially named the "Amish Kid" by Seth. I take that as a complement. Well, not much to report. Keeping busy, 42nd street has been going pretty well. We open on March 9th. Daniel, Michael and I have been busy with band stuff... but not busy enough. if any of you any place at all for us to play at... I don't care if it's a large venue or a very small living room, just tell us where to play and we will be there... I hope. I must go now. I got places to go, people to see and dragons to slay...... did I say that out loud? Lancalot will be very upset with me. We were playing "medieval times" and the wizard was playing the part of "Merlin". Hahaha! -JOEL Song of the week: "Terrible! How Terrible For The Great City!" Band: As Cities Burn Lyrics:
Am I a monster when I sink my teeth into her
When I don't love her
No, I don't love you
Forgive me darling, but love has nothing to do with this
It has nothing to do with how I can't stop
Until I get what I want from you
This is what real men keep quiet
It doesn't exist if you can hide it behind your teeth
And sleep at night next to your wife
Who you love too much to tell her
You don't love her at all
I just feel as empty as the lungs
Of those waiting in the womb
Do you feel as empty as the lungs of those waiting
To come into this world
Where being beautiful means being used
How long will we blame the devils on our shoulders
And pose like angels on the outside
When all I am is a monster

| Well, today is my birth day. Not that any body cares or any thing like that. I actually wrote down on our calender for December 13th "National Every One HATES Joel Day!" Ah yes, a rather festive holiday: every one around the world will wake up at 3:00 AM to begin the festivities! They will burn pictures of me, have sermons in church relating how no body likes me, wright me long twenty page letters telling me how they hate my guts and through hard boiled eggs at me when I pass bye! People every where will take pride and satisfaction in life, knowing that out of the three hundred and sixty five days of the year that seem to be dedicated to every one hating each other... they can still find some common ground, knowing that every one HATES JOEL!!!!!!!! *applause, cheers, rambunctious dancing in the streets* Ahhhh... doesn't it just make ya feel all warm inside?....... Uh.....Hmm...Uh, what was I saying.... I kind of lost my train of thought............. oh well. I guess what I'm trying to say here is... I... HATE... SAURE KRAUTE!!! That's all I'm really trying to say. Oh! Did I mention It's my birth day today? Hmm... guess not.......... lol. -JOEL P.S. Oh! I almost forgot... I GOT MY DRIVERS LICENSE! SWEEEEEETNESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Mama, what you got cookin' up in that kitchen? Cookin' fried chicken? You know I love that soul food, every thang you cook is so good for a southern man like me U gotta cook it up clean, cook it up mean. Mama don't like it when you got leftovers. Gimme me some of them collard greens! Got me some grub and I gotta go down to the Grocery store. Tailgate party at the in the back of the PIG WIG jumpin' up and down in the back of a truck bed. Look at that kid tryin' to act all big. Tried to break-dance and broke his leg. He ain't got what I got, let's make it hot in this parking lot!" -Family Force 5

| I feel weird. I'm on these prescription steroids because my skin was doing something strange, and now I'm all "whacked-out." But thankfully tomorrow is a saturday, so I can sleep in...... I think.
Here's the song of the week: "I Hate Christmas Parties," by Matthew Thiessen and The Earthquakes ------------------ Lyrics:
I hope it snows this week,
A snow flake on your cheek
Would make this Christmas so beautiful
But that would just bring the pain
Cause things can’t stay the same
These holidays won’t be wonderful
[Chorus]
I look under the tree
But there’s nothing to see
Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me
I can’t figure it out
Is this what Christmas is all about
Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me
I don’t wanna talk
I’m sick of all this talking
A broken heart wrapped up in a Box
Theirs tear drops in my stocking
I hate Christmas parties,
They offer me some punch,
But I just shrug
I hate Christmas parties
You and the cookie
Tray both hear me say bahumbug
Ful la la la la la…la la la la la la 3X
Chorus ------------------ Well, must go now. I'm playing halo with the wizard, he's pretty good (he just beat these two people online... some persons named Erica & Seth......*thinks for a moment*...... I don't have any idea who they could be) -JOEL "Whats a partridge? And whats a pear tree? Well I don't know so please don't ask me. But I can bet those are terrible gifts to get." -Relient K
