Why?

It’s an inevitability that someone will be asking, “Why are you doing this.” Then again, maybe nobody will, but I’ll try to answer it anyway. In fact, I’ll answer it in the most annoying way that one could answer a question. With another question.

Why do people go to rock n’ roll shows? I’m positive there are music dicks out there who go to judge and scoff. They get off on it and that’s fine. But I think most people go to have fun. Have a couple a drinks, forget about the dog shit week they may have had at the office and listen to people who enjoy making music. Pretty simple.

So, there’s your answer – gonna have some fun with it. We were pretty much double dog dared by a longtime friend of the band Shane Cline who plays for a group named Vester. His band opened for Rane Stone Friday night and Jeff, Matt and myself went to go check them out. We also ran into a lot of people at the gig who seemed to know more than we did about our soon to be Divided Sky 2.0 show, which was very cool. It was overwhelming to see the support and offers of assistance to help us get off the mat and make this thing a reality. It’s nice to know that when the show actually happens there will be more people in attendance than just the wives and girlfriends.

Cheers, Dan
