of things to come...
"we are stuck here.
we're so stuck here.
i'm sure everyone here understands what i say
just show me some hands if you can relate.
'cause we are stuck here.
we're all stuck here."
"give me
something to think about
as i shut my eyes and plug my ears
i'll try to go and face my fears..."
"i come alone to visit you
the first time in so long
to see what's new.
and there is nothing to prove.
we hit the ground running."
"oh oh play us the song of the night
come on let's go, you're wasting time
and we could make this count if you cross the line.
just tell me if you're feeling all right."
just some pieces of some new songs.

2009... a transitional year for all of us.
So... Colin quit the band, which led to Spencer, Sam and Colin starting their own thing because they didn't feel like they had enough creative freedom working with me. But all is well, they're not doing it to spite me or anything, and I'm starting my own solo thing. Which means the end of The Longshot is nigh... February 15th, to be exact.
We're still planning on recording the EP and doing the big Battle of the Bands final like we were, but are going to go our own separate musical ways after that. As depressing as that is for me (i did have a lot of fun with the guys, especially Spencer), it does open new doors to new wonderous things. I'm planning on continuing to write my own songs, but head in a new musical direction as a solo artist. Not to get cocky or bigheaded or anything. It's just that we all agree that I work best alone as a musician at this point, because my ideas are so specific.
But Sam, Colin and Spencer did great at bringing my ideas to life. I know they had a lot of fun too, and i'm glad they get to do exactly what they want now.
Spencer keeps telling me he'll always be there if i want to do more shows with him, which still shows how great a friend he really is. I hope we all get what we're aiming for, because there's a lot going on in this little old town.
Things change, The Longshot was destined to come to an end, what with Spencer and I graduating high school and all. I'm just glad i still have these awesome friends and got to do all these amazing things, meet all those amazing people and go to all the places we did. It was a fun ride, and i can't wait to see what's in store for me and all of us next.
2009- it's a year of change. I'm so excited to live this one.

Edit: I sounded way too official in this one.
