Skinny mean man. Remind you of anyone?

I'm officially entered in the Family Force Five contest now. The show is in 6 days, and needless to say, I'm stoked. First night off the tour too, which is awesome. Oh, and to those of you asking how we got the angle on the pictures, we were up on top of a jungle gym. Tommorow's the end of the first grading period at school. We have 6 of them. Kind of crazy to think the year's already a sixth of the way over, while a lot of you guys are just starting. I have to turn in some late work to bring a couple grades up and really get down to business at school, otherwise my mom will make me miss shows. Yes. Shows are my only motivation to do well at school.

Maxwell Bemis. Familiarize yourself with this name if you haven't already. He's the lead singer of the band Say Anything, who is quickly becoming one of my favorites. The passionate vocals, the dueling guitars, and Bemis' sharp tongue, wow. This guy can write a song like nobody's business. I love frontmen with mental problems. They're my favorite. Oh man, what a band. I'm so glad I got into them. The new album comes out next month, and I can't wait. They released a new song on their myspace tonight, and I'm listening to it for my seventh time now. I suggest you do the same.

I have direction at the start of my writing, and then I always go off on my soapbox. Oh well. It's a comfy soapbox. I rather like it.

After dedicating an entire paragraph to them, you should probably listen. Let me know what you think too. You'll probably hate it. Then I can tell you why you're wrong. Hooray!
