what is UP!

been SUCH a long time since i wrote a blog post, have to apologize for that! :)

oi, i dont even KNOW where to begin.. such a lot of stuff happening at the moment. after the CP DVD project's production finished November last year i took some time off, had suchhhh an awesome vacation back home in Humansdorp (my happy place. for realz.) and really got some solid rest in ;) lugged a small version of my kit down there aswell, first time i practice back home since i left way back in 2004! was SUCH a crazy feeling. when i left there in 2004 to go off to college i owned a really beat-down silver tama imperialstar kit and a zildjian planet Z cymbal set (ALL cracked) and when i started unpacking the kit i took down home for the holidays, i hit WAY hard that even though i left home owning that beat downnnn kit, i'm now back here, 5 years later, with a kit that has my name on. and the sickest cymbals. and the sickest hardware. UNREAL feeling, such a crazy thing to experience. trying my best not to end this like an after-school special.. but it goes to show what's possible if you do what you love, and if you do it passionately.

the second thing that hit me way hard, is that it's because of YOU guys checking out the videos.. rating, commenting, joining the fan page, asking questions on formspring (inbox is at 400+.. can NOT get it below 300, haha), bought DVD's, shirts, hoodies.. posted topics on the forums, send emails. YOU guys. that's huge. i've said this a million times, but after such a long time of not making blog posts.. i want to open with that :) THANK YOU. reading this. i appreciate it from the bottom of my south african heart.

ok, now some COOL news! :)
new series yooooooooooooooo! i am SO stoked, you guys dont even understand! i think it's because i haven't recorded in such a long time, but i can't remember that i've ever been this excited to record a new series. got SUCH a cool set-list.. stuff ranging from gut wrenching heavy metal (double bass yo..going to try my best.) to some epic anthems that will probably have me screaming into the mics, to the now mandatory 90's hit :) seriously so incredibly excited to record. the reason why i haven't recorded yet (if it was up to me it would have been launched LOOONG ago, very early January) is because i'm struggling to get a spot to record at church. you guys know i record at the church where i also play drums for the band, well, it seems it's SUPER busy now. like stuff going on ALL the time, so i can't get a 3-4 day gap so i can set up and record the new series :( i MIGHT have a chance in about a week and a half.. but i'll keep you guys posted, just keep an eye on the facebook fanpage for updates. going top shoot a TON of behind the scenes stuff this time, so you guys can see where i've recorded every single series thus far :)

there are also some other big stuff on the way, endorsements, and a pretty big announcement.. will let you guys know when the time is right :)

i think that's all for now. expect a blog post every week from now on. saweeet, check you guys in the forums! maximum respect and MAXIMUM appreciation for all the support.

2010 is going to friggin HUGE. true story.

much love.
