As you can tell by my dissapearance from the list and delayed replies
(like this one!) I have been mucho busy with work. We have a new release
going through beta right now and I've been stuck testing, writing up bug
reports and documentation. Also, the guys I usually jam with have been
MIA for a while now with the restart of school and the guitarist getting
laid off from his job and the keyboard player taking a new job that has
extended hours (overlaps with evening jam time). :(

We used to get together and play for about 2-3 hours every Wed. evening.
Recentyl I've played for a total of maybe 15 minutes in the last 3
weeks!! It's a drag. I get to walk by the kit and thats about it. :P

I'm still interested, but I don't know when things might get back into
shape enough to schedulke something. I'll let u know if anything works
it's way onto the agenda tho! :)
