The pieces are coming together...

Well... it looks like our band, Skultamaphon is finally getting off the ground. After 4 years of dicking around we've finally got off our ass and nailed a good gig. That's next Saturday... Well, I've known a couple of the guys from Seventh Gate for a while now, they are a pretty well established metal band with a fanbase all up the east coast. I was chilling with them last night, and they said since we finally got our shit together, they want us to go on tour with them... starting sometime after January....!!!
My dream has been accomplished. I will soon be a travelling musician. Fuck the money, fuck the fame, I don't care about any of that.. playing my music in front of appreciative fans is the most gratifying thing I have yet found.(besides love) I can now die happy.

Heh, they call themselves Satan Rock.. lyrically we are practically polar opposites... but that's why we are going to kick so much ass.

Frogman of the Sand
Luminous beings flowing through the night The process which the frequencies take flight Another branch of energy is chained Flowering as petals in your brain
Sent through time - to survive Memories now coming clear Dissolves away your deepest fear I have seen - endless streams Centuries that passed away The teachings of our former day
Dreams that penetrate your mind Slowly enter from behind This vision echoes throughout time The final step, the final sign
We are one - In the Sun Drifting through eternity A single, formless entity Melody - harmony Rhythm flowing perfectly An object of infinity

OMG!!!
Don't leave me!
I need your help at S&P&S. You have a laptop don't you?!?!?
Seriously, congratulations Shroomism. I am so happy for you. I heard some of your music and I must say I thought it was pretty good.
Cheers, (I miss you in S&P&S)

Well that's good to know!
I need a Shroomism fix from time to time.
I really appreciate your contributions at S&P&S, in case you didn't know.
I am very happy for you, more than I can say.
Cheers,

congratulations shroomism, it's good to hear some fellow shroomerite musicians are getting out there and getting some exsposure. BTW i can imagine how you must feel, about to be going out on tour and all, it's something i've always wanted to do. It's one of my main goals as a musician to go out on the road, and play shows every night to people i dont know. I really want to do it soon!!
Right now our band has one "tour" to date, which was actually just us playing to shows on to consecutive days...But we didnt get to go home inbetween! so it's a tour right!? we called it our "will play for beer and food tour" and even thought about making t-shirts with the two tour dates on them, just for personel amusement... Still though, i'd like to do an actually tour when we're ready..that'd be awesome!
Best of luck to you on your upcoming shows, i hope you get some good exsposure and have some fun.

Wow! Congrats! If you ever find yourselves, say playing smack dab in the central part of our lovely state (if I recall you too are serving time in the commonwealth ), let me know. I will be more than inclined to come and see you.
