Skatepunk

Wow, I can't accurately express the joy I felt last night as Sten Guns practiced my first song. I still can't sing all that well, but we played a song called "Every Day" that I wrote and sang, and while I've written and played tons of songs musically on guitar and piano, I've never really written the lyrics and melodies as well, and it felt amazing. Lance and Hagop were really patient and kind-- a perfect environment for a singer/songwriter without a lot of confidence... it felt like the times I learned my personal best tricks on vert--frontside rocks, lien to tails, lipslides... a great sense of personal accomplishment...fun.

Now Playing: Joe Strummer's new single "Coma Girl" there are two versions, and they also come with live songs: Blitzkrieg Bop," "Yalla Yalla," "The Harder They Come" by Jimmy Cliff, and "Rudi, A Message to You" as made famous by the Specials. "Coma Girl" is great, and I can't wait for the final record to come out...
