Aside from that stress, though, I managed to complete a small dream of mine and took a day to rent massive Harleys with a couple of buddies and rode out to the Grand Canyon.

I did get COVID on the way back and had to set up another show in the UK that week but still. That Harley bit of the trip was awesome fun. Sunset, mountains, desert, the highway, AB on the stereo.... the American dream.
Sounds like a really fun trip. Grand Canyon is really a great place. I hiked down it for about 3 miles back in 2020, and then my parents went back last October to hike to Phantom Ranch and back (18 miles). Here's the video they made about it.

That's awesome man! Good for you for taking advantage of the opportunity! In a great way too! If you ever get back to the area, I always recommend hiking through Bryce Canyon, went years ago and would love to go back.

Greg - sorry to hear about the health scare! Hope things are going well!

Hi.

May I ask why people join fan clubs? Like the linkin park fan club for instance? What do people get out of it? Occasional deals on tickets or merch or something?

I honestly don't understand this either. I mean, I'm part of Volbeat's fan club Rebels & Angels, but that's free to join and you get access to half the stuff on their website, such as news from them and setlists for each show. The latter is one I consider to be particularly handy as their setlists aren't always updated on setlist.fm.

I subscribe to the Iron Maiden fan club because they select their First to the Barrier pre-entry guests from there. Paid off when I saw them in San Diego a year ago and was among the first 50 into the venue.

Not sure who needs to know this, but I saw a nice pair of partially exposed boobs at open mic last night. 😍😍

I guess the guys on TABN don't like boobs.

We do. We just don't like others seeing them instead of us :lol

I was today years old when I found out that the phrase "she likes fish more than she likes sausage" means that someone is lesbian.

The most I say about women usually is that I think they're pretty. Im pretty modest.

That's the better way to go. Unfortunately, I'm cursed with an overtly sexual sense of humor.

Maybe that's why girls don't like me.

So far, so good. We're at dinner now and we'll be going back into the studio afterwards. Vocals and clean/acoustic guitars are yet to be recorded.

Yeah, but you won't know which one until I release it to streaming services.

We didn't finish last night. I recorded some vocal takes, but I wasn't happy with them, so we're going back tomorrow night to finish that up.

Excited to hear it. Does this mean I'll finally hear a song of yours that actually has bass guitar? :lol

Yes, you will! :lol A few weeks ago, I played bass along with two of my demos, and my comment to it was "I can actually feel the songs now!"
