First things first, I’d like to wish all you folk a Merry Xmas/Happy New Year and also a safe holiday season. Have fun, don’t do dumb shit and we’ll all be fine. Secondly whether you just discovered my music/the site recently or you’ve been holdin it down here since we started – much thanks. I appreciate your support and the fact that we’re making a little community here. It’s awesome hearing from you guys and as I’ve said before it’s encouraged me knowing that there’s people actually interested in what I’m doing. That’s mint – props to ya’s.
Reflectin on my 09, it was a pretty dece year – much better than my 08 was that’s for sure, fingers crossed the upward trend continues next year. Personal highlight was puttin out an album I was totally happy with, from the music itself, to the singles we released, to the vids/artwork etc… it’s the most satisfied I’ve been with any project I’ve worked on. Much thanks go to my team for helping me do that, shot guys. Doin my first shows in the U.S, and finally crackin into those U.S sites I read everyday was also massive for me(of course the Kanye thing). Still guts about the cloud of death that seemed to hang over the last 12 months though… but what can ya do. Just remember to enjoy your time with your loved ones, 09 was the biggest reminder to not take that shit for granted so I’m mad grateful that I get to spend another xmas with my old man. R.I.P to all those we’ve lost.
Looking forward, I had a realisation this week that I’m gonna have to get fucken BUSY through January if I’m gonna be able to do the things I’ve got planned for next year. I’m sure I’ll get some semblance of a Summer break in, but writing and recording is gonna be the main agenda for the start of 010. Let me know what you guys wanna see/know about behind the scenes and I’ll see if I can hook up some footage/photos whatever.. shit maybe we’ll even get on our uStream shit and broadcast a session or somethin ?? Whatevs! T-Shirts are coming too, I hope you guys are down to buy them/rock them cause if you weren’t .. that would be pretty shit. Ha.
Gigs wise you catch me in Gisborne on the 1st @ those rawkus as BW Campgrounds, and @ Matakana Island on the 16th. I’ll also probably pop into the BDO to catch my bro PNC’s set, and to see The Temper Trap play “Sweet Disposition” – I love that shit. I wanna put on our own party like we did with the “Off 2 The States” gig sometime soon too, but more details on that once it’s finalised. Should be a mean summer!
And finally, “I Get The Feelin” is startin to pick up at Radio and TV now so you guys need to get out there and request/vote for it so we can “Push it to the limit” as Ricky Ross would say. I hear it’s just garnered a daytime add on The Edge, which would make it the first song of mine that’s done that – wicked. Go show your favourite stations love and put the word in, lets do this so we don’t have to keep hearin bad JR Rotem productions and that rude as Fireflies song. Haha
Merry Xmas!
