Blog PostsFriends | BlogA Personal UpdateHello my fellow blog readers,For those who read my blog about all my recent MySpace emails and whatnot I have an update for you all. Out of the 14 bands that asked me about becoming a keyboardist, I responded to 6 of them. One of them just got back today. At this moment, they are looking for a permanent keyboardist. After exchanging a few emails I have agreed to go into the studio with them and write the keyboards/synth parts for all their songs and do backing vocals. I figured it's another great way to get my name on another record even if I don't end up with them permanently - there is still much to discuss regarding that. I have setup a meeting hopefully for Friday so I will have an update for you all this weekend.

I will never forget his teachings. RIP.Maybe I should check my messages more often....So yeah I have 2 MySpace's. One which you all know about, and well the other, I totally neglect for months.
