Personally, it has been a helluva rollercoaster ride for me and most of you have been a part of it.
Please share some of the highlights of your 2008 with us....
here are some of mine....
the very first CPMS fundraiser @ Lawrence/St. Louis... when we had to wait to open the doors for 2 hours and waiting in the cold... and it was the debut of Lost Poetics
the acoustic nights @ Queen Alberts that we have full on baby amps and electric guitars, where Mark V and Gerald debuted their relentless talents
the gatherings we have had over at Jay's place, and even at the Hamlin House

-Finding CPMS on Google...Syeah!
-Hoggin' the discussion boards with Ge..."I knew him too! He did what to the Maid?!"
-Jammin at the first acoustic night with 3 solos and 1 song with Daybreak and meeting some CPMS-ers...awesome!
-Getting Justin as a bassist/vocalist and jammin' with Ge and FOB at the maya essence and underground lounge...Metal!
-Parties at Hec's...super fun
-Jammin' with all y'all!!!...Way too many to list and all kick ass!!!
-Being in a band with Ponki and Dave for a month...\m/
-Finding out that Nat and Chette are RENTheads! ....NDBT!!!
-Now in a band with Gerald, Justin, Axionjax, and Rick (from Tempest)...Sheeeeeeeeeeee
-Being friends with all these good peeps...
If you don't like what you see here, Get the FUNK out....Slap that bass Chris!!!! woot woot! ;) waw-chi-ka-waw-waw
I'm not sure I can narrow it down really... from bringing a Glock to a knife fight (aka acoustic nights with ESPs and Metalzone haha!) to the Undie shows and the new york gig we regretfully missed to the bamboo gig and lets not forget the classic parties Hec throws at his crib.... one thing is for certain though, I have met some really talented friends, for that twas wonderful year indeed.
...finding out Mark v and I played in practically the same band and just missing each other by 2 months then finally jamming it out 18 years later... that's classic man!
