The power of Christ can change anyone…
I do believe that when someone answers the call of Christ, he makes them a new creation.
I saw this clip today and it made me feel something inside along the lines of “THAT’S GOD IN ACTION!!!” when I saw it.
I’ve known that Blackie Lawless (from the band W.A.S.P.) had an encounter with Christ…but to see this in action fired me up. For those uninformed, W.A.S.P. were considered a highly occultic band. One that I saw mentioned everytime someone was doing an anti-rock sermon back in the 80′s. God has changed the heart of Blackie Lawless. He is my brother in Christ. He has had what the world has to offer and determined that God’s ways were better.

The hard rock scene can be pretty dark. When people come to see Guardian, they know in advance we are Christians. We speak freely about our faith. With W.A.S.P. it’s somewhat different; To me, this is kinda’ like “Tebowing” times 10. I hope this encourages you as much as it does me.
God wins!

Edited to add: The audio after the prayer is pretty rough. Sounds like noise cause it’s on a cell phone. The verbal intro was what I wanted seen here.

The recording business isn’t the same these days…
Check out this info-graphic on how many sales/streams you need to earn minimum wage.

If you have an artist whose music you enjoy, they are likely doing it just for the love of music. Maybe think about buying a ticket to their live show, buying a shirt, sticker, etc. as a way to say thanks! The days of making a record and earning a living off of that alone are definitely in the sunset phase.

Every song starts somewhere…
The Guardian EP, “Three To Get Ready”, has been out for a few weeks now. We were stoked with how much positive feedback we have gotten on it. Surely a sign that we need to make more new music for 2012.
One of the songs on the EP that seems to be connecting well is “Reaching”. I have my original idea for the song that we used to jump from and arrange into what you hear on the EP. I recorded this in my kitchen (as an iPhone voice memo) last summer. When we were going through our ideas for the EP, I had actually forgotten that I had submitted this. Was glad I did. I thought it would be neato to play the memo here for you to hear. Every song starts somewhere..this is the birth of “Reaching”:
If you haven’t already, head over to iTunes and get the ep now!

Grateful for these moments…
..The moments where I feel like I’m on top of the world. It makes the trouble & valleys that I go through from time to time seem a little bit less significant.

Thoughts…
It’s 12:18 am at home. 3 hours ahead of that where I’m at tonight. I’m wore out from travel but seem to be having trouble getting to sleep.
I’m writing this from my hotel room in Ushuaia, Argentina. The locals call this “The End of the World” as it’s the planet’s southern most city. It’s stunningly beautiful. Scenic mountains right up to the waterfront. It seems to have a Denmark/Dutch vibe in the city but also feels like Switzerland meets New England. It’s good to be here.
I guess I never thought that I would be 41 years old and still getting to do things like this tour. It’s pretty humbling & exciting. Guardian fans rule. No doubt. I’m looking forward to playing the shows and connecting with our fans again. I can’t wait to get the new music in your ears.
Alright..’nuff rambling. I’m going to bed.
Miss my family and friends back home..but I’d be dishonest if I didn’t tell you that I absolutely LOVE getting to do this. I’m grateful. I hope God rocks us.
Holla!

ps- Facetime and wi-fi have already kept me in the loop with my fam. I would love to have had that technology back in the day!
