A Very Good Sunday

Well, I definitely couldn't have asked for a better Sunday. Hung out with my best friend most of the day, then went to band practice for Youth Group. I know what you're thinking here, "A Youth Group band? How is that fun?". Well believe me, the other band members and musical director are amazing. Honestly, band practice is my favorite part of every Sunday! Great company, great music, and praising my God all at the same time! Who could ask for more?

I finally got to put my new guitar to good use! This was the first time that I ever brought it to a band practice, and believe me, it made all the difference! We sounded so much better now that my Alvarez was up to par with the other guitars that were playing. We actually got another vocalist too, so we have some very good harmonies going on as well!

So all in all, a VERY successful Sunday!

10 Day Weekends are Great!.... When You're not on Lockdown!

Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely not complaining in any way about being out of school. It's just that this VERY long weekend hasn't been too terribly fun, considering the day after it snowed, a thick layer of ice formed over top... Now I'm pretty much trapped inside my house, forced to write blog entry after blog entry! And since I'm writing them, you're forced to read them! Mwahahaha.

Now, before I go any farther, I want to brag about a friend of mine, David Arias. He is an outstanding musician, and is a great songwriter. Please, anyone and everyone reading this blog post, go check out his blog at http://ariasaudio.tumblr.com/. There's a sample of a song he wrote a little while ago, and it's really good.

Well, that's about it, I'm going to go play my brand new Alvarez (still have not gotten over the shock of what an amazing guitar it is)! Like usual, leave a comment, follow my blog, and keep checking back for more posts!
