Band Practice

I never really pictured our basement to be a host for a live band. But last night that all changed. Our basement is usually a holding place for bikes, spare doors and extra water heaters. It also once acted as a playground for squirrels during the first semester. With a little sweeping and reorganizing, our basement was transformed into a concert hall.

Ryan Flannery & The Night Owls, a trio from the town I grew up in, Wausau WI. The best way to describe them is mix between Elton John and Gavin DeGraw. I went to school with the drummer, John. We became friends in 6th grade. One of the best memories I have with john was when we were involved in the middle school talent show. We performed a song from the movie Grease and our act consisted of us dancing around in leather jackets for 3 minutes to 'We Go Together'.

The band was supposed to perform on Saturday outside one the the libraries on campus, but due to rain, their performance got cancled. They still wanted to perform, so our basement became the next best option. I really think these guys have a bright future ahead of them.

You can take a listen to them on itunes or visit their myspace page here.

Kick Start

Here is a quick and easy tasty breakfast. I have had this every morning for the past 2 weeks. All you need is:

- about 1 & 1/2 cup of Milk
- 2 packets of Brown Sugar Oatmeal, one isn't nearly enough
- 1/4 cup frozen Blueberries or frozen fruit of choice

Microwave the milk and oatmeal for about 3 to 3 & 1/2 minutes, or until you get a good thickness. Add the frozen fruit and say hello to a great breakfast!

This meal is guaranteed to keep you less hungry during the morning hours.

The New Guy

So my roommate cam just got a blog. He has been posting a lot, almost to much. Every time I see his new post, I feel obligated to post too. I needed this motivation though, so thanks next door roommate.

All the popular music magazines are loving boat mix '10. Rolling Stones has it labeled as the "fresh new album of 2010" and " a must have for all boaters!"

Today Cam, Kevin, Chris and I participated in the worlds largest trivia contest. It started at 6pm and goes for 54 hours. It consists of 6 questions an hour and you have 2 full songs to find the answer. We only only played for about 2 hours, but cams dad has a real team and we were helping them out. The questions were given over the radio and I think we got only 2 correct.

My sister introduced me to an old show 'Friday Night Lights' over Easter break and now I am hooked. I just started season 2 and I need to finish both 2 and 3 before may 7th because that is the start of season 4. I recommend it to any people looking for a TV series to follow.

Tomorrow, Saturday, I am heading to my cabin to help my Dad put the boat in. It will be a relaxing weekend and I hope the fish are biting.

I leave with a song I've begun to like.

SB Song

Here is a new song I found while on spring break. It is by a rap/techno group called The Girls Can Hear Us. It's real catchy.
