I'm guessing, but you probably can't get them anymore. If my memory serves me correctly, the staff were only allowing people to take one this past ProgPower. IMO, overall, the sampler was the best one yet. It was 3 disc full of really good music. I was able to discover a few new names from it.

The hard part is over!! At least for me...

FINALLY all the writing is complete, including one song I've been writing for a year or more. I was starting to think I'd never be able to say that! We're all really happy with the way everything has turned out. The next step is learning/rehearsing the newest material, and then we'll track all the drums in one fell swoop on Shawn's nice new kit. I can't wait! Don't get me wrong, we have a fair bit of stuff recorded already, but now that the writing's done we can really concentrate and start to hit it hard.

We have a tracklisting ready, and we have 4 songs either partially or totally written that will go on album #3, so writing-wise we already have a big headstart on that album as well.

I'm just so excited to finally be done writing...I can't even quite believe it's real!

Can't wait for you all to hear the album!

Man, that's awesome! Congrats on clearing this latest hurdle. Good luck with the rehearsals, recording... putting it all together! Patience is surely one of the best virtues, as well as focus.

Oh cool, just yesterday night I'd been thinking about how far your progress was.

Killerah · December 15th, 2005, 11:42 AM

Yay, glad to hear it! Can't wait till you guys are finally done.

Thanks for the update Matt!

JazzEgle · December 15th, 2005, 02:00 PM

I'm even more excited now. There are many days when I'm sitting, wondering when the new album will be complete. Great Job.

That's awesome Matt.

-I dont know though. It's like I'm glad the new album is comming along, but now I'm anxious. And way to go on getting a head start on the 3rd album. I recall you saying how you didn't want to end up being on of those bands who only comes out with one album and tons of christmas songs.

Can wait... You guys are doing a good work. No doubt, God is being glorified through your music. Keep on, Keep on.
