Hey Gang—it’s Mikeee checking in and giving a big HELLO to the Terashain faithful and HOWDY to those of you stopping by for the first time. NICE TO SEE ALL OF YOU. Ok here we go. First off, I miss gigging and seeing everybody so don’t think that this is some sort of real bitchin vacation. I am feeling it like the rest of you. I am also going to assume that you all are up to date on Tevis coming on board—if not just scroll down a few entries until you see the news entry on him and get informed. Tevis is doing a great job absorbing all our material and we can’t wait to get back out with him and the new revamped show. Nice to see a lot of you at the Blooze a few weeks ago. Our buds Shut Up & Drive were most awesome hosts and certainly gave us all a great evening of quality entertainment. Pound for pound they are my favorite local band right now—if you haven’t seen them yet then get yer ass out and see them. A special shout to their drummer Nick for his upcoming wedding—congratulations to you and your future bride!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing really new on the equipment front (Not that YOU care) but sometimes musicians can be obsessed with gear like I am. I am still in love with those sparkling Pearls and really don’t have any reason to change them out for something else. My taste in my snare sound has changed. Right now my ear likes the Pearl Ultracast over the Reference. That can change any day (go figure) Alright that’s enough for now. Thanks for visiting. Miss you all. Don’t go out in the rain with just your socks on. Mikeeee
