Days are long and getting colder. I have been getting a little sick lately which makes the day go much slower and more unbearable. I know it'll pass soon and hopefully that uncomfortable, fuzzy sensation in my throat will clear. It's sucks being overly conscious about you're throat when you're a singer because you want to feel good (physically) everyday. And mentally...When I think about it too much it ends up ruining me. So in a way I have to not care or think about how it feels that day and work over the humps so to speak. But it is my voice and I still have to take care of it. I'm sure some of you have heard me say this before but the voice is not like a guitar or a piano in the way that when you break a string on those instruments you can just put a new one on. With the voice, if you hurt something, you have to rest it...Or else you can do some damage. So you singers out there and everyone for that matter, TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODIES!

It was 40 years ago today...
September 26th, 1969... The U.K. release of "Abbey Road", by The Beatles, was released. It was the 11th official U.K. album and the 17th U.S. album released by the band. In my opinion it is definitely one of the Beatles best albums. Actually I take that back...Every album is great, from their earliest to their latest. But Sgt. Pepper's is still their masterpiece. "Abbey Road" has many great songs on it such as "Come Together", "You Never Give Me Your Money" and Harrison's songs such "Something" and "Here Comes The Sun". And that's just 4 songs of the 17 tracks. If you never gave the album a chance, take a listen now..you might just like it.

The Government Didn't Help
It's been awhile since I've been on here. But with the puppy, work and the band I wasn't even on a computer at any point in the day. Eventually I figured out that I didn't have time for the puppy and neither did anyone else in my family. We all loved him, but realized it would be better for him to find a family that could give him the attention he needs. So he's gone now, but will be getting everything he needs. Anyway, ever since I saw that video awhile ago about people texting and driving I figured out that the government is supposed to help prevent these problems. Personally, I also never agreed with banning talking on cell phones and driving. It's really the same as talking to someone in your passenger seat. And those who got into accidents who were on cell phones were most likely bad drivers anyway who made poor decisions. Or maybe it wasn't even their fault. Sometimes we have long drives where we may have to take an important call. But since its hard to hide talking on the phone we may ignore the call, or text the person because that is a lot easier to hide. I really think the government should reconsider this law about talking on cell phones and driving. It may eliminate a lot of texting and driving which is exponentially more dangerous. - Ryan

Step 1
What up brethrens,
Sean here just lettin ya know a little ditty about what's going on with OFAC. Like I said in the past few blogs we have been working very hard, especially with the business aspect of the band. But we have also been writing new songs which has been our main priority since the CD release show back in July. We're really looking to get some attention with these next few songs because as some of you may know we do have labels interested in us (but lets keep that on the DL for now). We're really stoked about these new songs. We know every year when we come out with new music we always say that but that's part of being in a band. It's always in a constant upward motion especially with song writing. We really believe that this will be our most mature material yet and we can't wait to even write another album (yes we have that much material). But like anything it is a process. It will take some time to polish these songs and it may even be some time until you hear these songs. But just think...we're making history right now just talking about it which is so exciting to me. But in the mean time we'll be continuing our DIY ethos as a band with playing shows and going fuckin wild on stage because we love to play music and create a good time for all of you.
More updates to come, stay cool everyone

Long Days...
Always on the go! That's what it always seems to be. I don't have much time to write an insightful blog but I would just like to say that we are working very hard. We have a lot of things in the works for the band and we can't wait to let you all in on it. We're lining up some shows for the near future that we will let you know about, so stay tuned and keep checking our blogs or our Myspace for more updates.
Much love,
