Crucify him! Crucify him!

Ohai.

That chant has been in my head ever since I came back from seeing Jesus Christ Superstar at The Calvary United Methodist Church. My friend, Miss Bella, was in it, along with quite a few other people I know, and I promised them all that I would show up to at least one show. It turned out to be a lot better than I was really expecting. The singing was phenomenal, and the stage work was spot on.

Though what really spoke to me was the music. I don't know what it was. The way the songs were written, the way they told the story, I'm not sure. But the most memorable thing from the performance was the music to me. I actually came home, put in my Dream Theater DVD, and am currently listening to Octavarium. I needed a reminder of why I play music.

Call it a dream, call it a fantasy, but I would like to write my own musical one day. Not necessarily a musical in the sense like the one I watched tonight, but like a "rock opera" I guess you could say. I was going to do that with my old bands song, "Riders of the Sky." Still a goal of mine to be honest. But I would want to work with someone like Ben and/or Phil to finish something of that magnitude. The story line I have for it is fairly decent, but too predictable. I want to give it some twists and turns.
Never going to happen. Don't get your hopes up.
There I go again...Rambling. Why are you even still reading this?

Crucify him! Crucify him!

I should start trying to think of solid ideas for these blogs. I was thinking about getting back into the swing of a post everyday. But I feel like I'd be wasting my time along with whoever still reads these. I don't have much to say anymore. I'm just trying to get out of the house as often as I can (to no avail half the time). I may be heading to Texas for an extended weekend here at the end of the month. But that depends on quite a few different factors. Though it would be nice to get away for a while. We'll see I guess.

I started writing out ideas for a few Youtube videos, along with working on getting people together for the first one. I don't want to spoil too much, just in case it doesn't happen, but I will say that if you ever wanted to hear me sing live with a full band...This may be your one and only chance.

Crucify him! Crucify him!

So much more I wish I could say. So much more I want to share. But I'm starting to feel sleep taking over my body. Exhaustion is the only way I can get myself to sleep anymore, and that usually causes me to sleep half the day away...Lovely.
I miss you...Maybe I'll send a text telling you...
Crucify him! Crucify him!
But will it matter?
Ok...I think we get the point...

Obai.
