A past life...

I found some old camera phone photos that are pretty awesome. For those of you who didn't know, or didn't believe me, here is proof that I used to be a welder for a living before I joined the band. circa 2004.

Oh and who is the clean cut baby face below?
circa 2005.


Pretty awesome. Thought I would share those.

Easters

Hey Everyone,
Happy Easter! I'm about to head to our Easter service at church with Melissa to celebrate the real meaning, but thought I would post a couple of pictures from our first Easter egg dying together. I tried to make one look like me too, but it ended up looking creepy.

12-String PRS!

I'm so stoked I just got my 12-string. I have wanted to own one my whole life and now I finally get to play one all the time. It turned out amazing and plays fantastic! I was especially stoked when I got it and found a sweet suprise on the back of the headstock. So cool! Look for it at future Sanctus shows and on our next record! I got it just in time to record a part with it on a new demo. :) Chris's dad Jim Rohman was kind enough to take some sweet photos for me with it.
If you haven't checked out PRS guitars you need to because they are amazing.

Meet my Cats

These are my cats, Petty (if you know me you know who he's named after) and Bingley (Melissa named him, if you love Jane Austen you'll recognize that name).
They were just hanging out in the window today and I snapped a couple pictures of them. They love each other.

New computer finally!

I just got a new macbook in Denver the other day. So now I can finally have a little bit of an online life once again...yeah! I couldn't take a picture of my new computer from my computer so I just took a picture of myself in my kitchen instead.

Wedding post #1

It has truly been an eternity since I've been able to just be online other than borrowing someone else computer for 5 minutes. My Computer went down on me a few months ago as the last post will show, and since then I have been checking my email and facebook from my phone, but that about the extend of what I can do. However I just got Married!! My wife has a computer that I am on now finally post this blog from. Enough about this.I got Married! Melissa and I got married just over two weeks ago now on Dec 6th. The wedding turned out lovely, and a good amount of our closest family and friends attended. It was held at The Village Chapel in Nashville which is a really cool old church. Here are some pictures of us from the big day! A Huge thanks to our friend Tec Petaja for being the best photographer ever! And of course TOMS shoes were well represented by me and my guys.

Pictures from Extreme Makeover and TOMS shoes

Dan and I just got finished dropping Carlos from TOMS shoes off at the airport. He is a seriously rad guy. He came out on the road with us for the first few shows of the tour and he freaking rocks. Great guy.

Here are a few photos from the event we did with Extreme Makeover:Home Edition yesterday. It was huge!! 5000 people came to support the Frisch family from Toledo. So cool!
We did a song with Paul(one of the designers from the show) and it was a lot of fun. The cast and crew were all very nice people. We had a great time!

what a crazy feeling

So its almost been a week now that I've been engaged. Its so crazy. I had to leave out of town the day after I proposed so it wasn't until Saturday night when I got home that I really got to introduce Melissa as my fiancee, then it really sunk in that I'm getting married. It was really fun going to Target yesterday and walking around with a scanner and zapping things that I wish I could have for married life. Some of the items are obviously ridiculous and no one will get them, but hey, if you're gonna dream, dream big....right? HaHa. Here is an unofficial engagement photo of my future bride and I the night of the big question. Hopefully soon we'll have some sweet engagement photos to show all of you. By the way, I'm getting married on December 6! Crazy, its going to be a busy 4 months.

Engaged!

I just got engaged tonight and am so stoked!

Go buy this record now!

These guys are amazing and based out of Nashville. They are friends of mine and they are really really good (especially live, but their music is amazing recorded too). Go to their myspace. Go buy their new EP! Go see them on tour this summer and fall opening for Paramore and Phantom Planet. Become a huge fan. I'm not kidding.

When I hear the praises start....

This week I was able to pay respect to one of my favorite people of all time, Keith Green. As far back as I can remember I have known his music. For those of you who are not familiar with Keith, check this out. He passed away with two of his children very tragically in July of 1982 in a plane crash (my dad actually was able to attend the funeral at the Last Days Ministries ranch). I was born in October of 1982 so my parents were very into their Keith Green records at the time. So like I said his music has very much been a soundtrack throughout my life growing up.
We played at Teen Mania headquarters in Garden Valley, TX on Tuesday, which used to be Last Days Ministries and the property that Keith and his Family lived on and where the plane crashed. Our friend Adam from Teen Mania took us to the cemetery a 1/2 mile away where Keith and his two children were buried. I know this is kind of weird and morbid, but it was a big deal for me to be there.

Saturday in the park....

Today, Melissa and I drove to a park someone told her about called Burgess Falls. Its only an hour and a half east of Nashville and its pretty much amazing as you can see from the pictures.

If you at the top corner of the water in the photo above you can see a little tiny guy swimming next to the waterfall. He wasn't actually tiny but thee waterfall was just huge.
