My band, Little Green Men, if you have payed attention, has had a blog stating we would release music soon since March now and nothing was ever posted, and I apologize for that. As much as I love playing music with those guys, lately I have gotten tired of waiting around doing nothing with the band. I finally spoke to members and brothers, David and Mikey about getting serious with the band and they agreed, yet still, only our 2nd practice and they bailed. Hopefully next week we will get on track and start accomplishing things but if not, I can't say I will enjoy being in the band any longer. If all goes well we will practice and until we have something recorded I will not put the band profile up again. Either way, the band is on an indefinite hiatus...
Hey everybody! Haven't blogged in a while so i decided to try it out again. Tonight I'd like to ask the question, what do you think is the best album of '09? I understand there is still time in the year to go for albums to be released so I will make another blog asking the same question in late December/early January, but as for now, which album is the best?! In my opinion, its probably 21st Century Breakdown by Green Day, not even just because they are my favorite band, but just the fact it's a great record! It's either that or Swoon by Silversun Pickups in my opinion. By the way, on the topic of Silversun Pickups, they are a great lesser known band and people should really pay more attention to them! There first album, Carnavas, debuted around #80 on the Billboard 200, while their second album debuted at #7, what a jump! At least they are beginning to be noticed....check em out! But anywho, back to the main subject, please don't be shy! Post your answer on what album you think deserves the title of best album of '09! C ya!

What would u say are the 3 people, bands, albums, movies, etc. that influence u as a musician?
For Me, My Biggest Influences Are, Billie Joe Armstrong for his awesome songwriting, Rivers Cuomo because I love his singing. And finally as cheesy as this sounds, The School Of Rock, (lol i know) because when i was a bit younger seeing that movie made me want to play the guitar, just seeing a group a kids playing like that really inspired me.
So that's what influences me. What influences you?
Everyone has their own set up that they'd die for. Mine would be a Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Custom Junior , A Marshall Stack, My Scott Ian Black-13, My Boss AC-3 Acoustic Simulator, A Digitech Whammy! Pedal, an EVH custom flanger, a fancy microphone that doesnt give feedback (grrrr mic feed back), and a gibson les paul double-cutaway on backup.
A bit much I know, but hey a guy can dream right?! Plus I already have 2 parts, please share ur dream set up!!!
