They say that home is where the heart is. Basically, home is priority, right? Well, here is an image of our practice space. It was a three car garage, in the typical sense, when we moved in. With some help from our neighbor John (more about him at a later date), it blossomed as a haven for good time fun. Other than the one noise complaint, we have had a relatively low impact on quaint little Unicorn Street. We put in carpet, sound board, sound foam, insulation, and an additional wall behind Keith's amp, but apparently Ebenezer could hear us with his TV volume all the way up to half. Yes, I live on Unicorn Street, and I promise that the irony is not lost on me.

That is me in my recording nook. Being that From a Limb was recorded in a closet, I felt compelled to recreate a similar environment here. My band mates were very accommodating, and my musical agoraphobia persists unchecked. Someday, I will post an image of our living quarters. I promise you that it pales in comparison. It would probably help in demonstrating that, "home is where the heart is" jargon, but I sleep on a floor in a sleeping bag. Nobody needs to see that. Here is something you should see. The Arcade Fire playing Neon Bible in an elevator. Amazing.
