May 2012
It was worth waiting.
Sometimes you need to see someone you have a really strong past with to know that the right decision was made. Sometimes being ready to see that person takes a few years, but in the end, walking away from the situation knowing that you made the right choice is an amazing feeling. It’s really tough sometimes when you spend your life wondering “what if” so when you know it’s...
this is the happiest i've ever been.
yes.
What success means to me.
I am very tough on myself. I am never satisfied. I am never content. I am always hungry. I always want more. The other day i was feeling pretty down about life and took a second to think about why anyone would think I am “successful.” What does “success” even mean? Does it mean money? Does it mean fame? Does it mean accomplishments, awards, and recognition?
Success to me...
Kick start my rock and roll heart.
I have decided that May 16th, 2012 is a major day in my life and the day a lot of things change. Because I have made that decision, I’m going to make it happen. It’s as simple as that. When you want something as bad as I do, it’s extremely possible to decide you are going to get it and go out and get it. I’m sick of opportunities passing me by and sick of improvements not...

I fall in love with you or anyone.
I swallow anything that reminds me I am temporary.

an empty wedding
My best man doesn’t even know he was supposed to clear his schedule. My family never knew to book their flights. The wedding planner never got the call and Ryan never agreed to sing those songs one last time. I will be leaving town a week later, but it’s not where I should be. She will never call me son and he will never get a chance to show his face. Your dress was never sold and your...
summer so far.

Someone told me last night that I look more alive...
You have no idea how much that meant to me.
I’ve been so happy, so content, and so focused lately.
The world makes sense again and not all the people in it are bad.

checkMARKS
So there you are, and here I stand, As far as I remember you weren’t half bad. Your bedroom behavior was never more than checkmarks on bedposts. For I remember we never had. You get me out of the rain, you get me out of my clothes. You hope I don’t make a sound, you hope that nobody knows. You get me out of the rain, you get me out of my clothes. You hope I don’t make a...

This Is Just The Beginning
I spend a lot of my time working on the development and growth of young bands. The second these bands reach a certain level of success where they are known outside of Texas, it’s always the best feeling. In the past I have helped bands like Memphis May Fire, In Fear & Faith, Ivoryline, Red Car Wire, and more break out of Texas and onto the national scene in a big way. Lately I have been...
If you think you know me well
You probably don’t.
I’ve kind of grown to dislike who I am, but I’m working on it.
falling away.
I’ve found myself pretty much falling away from everything I used to be, I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

USN2K12 UP & COMING ARTISTS!
One of the coolest things about doing Unsilent Night has always been reuniting acts that I love to play one last show. Terminal and As Cities Burn reunions were literally priceless to me. The other cool thing about Unsilent Night though, is and always will be, introducing brand new bands to the music scene. In the past we have brought bands to Texas for the first time like Breathe Carolina, The...

The Postal Service "Give Up" is such a classic.
home away from home
The idea of touring has always fascinated me. I’ve done weekend runs, week runs, even a three week run before, but it was all a tease. For once in my life I have everything together where I can actually leave and trust that everything back home will be handled correctly. It’s a big decision, but it’s a dream and it’s where I belong. There’s no better feeling to me...

TRUTHorLIE?
Despite how against it and scared of it I seem, I want nothing more than to chill out with a supportive girl who has her own ambitions and own drive and share life together. Seems impossible though, so I keep myself distracted.
I'm not afraid of commitment, I'm afraid of...
BACON!

can i say goodbye?
I might be too strung out on compliments Overdose on confidence Started not to give a fuck and stopped fearing the consequence Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments Faded way too long I’m floating in and out of consciousness And they sayin’ I’m back, I’d agree with that I just take my time with all this shit, I still believe in that I had...
