If you’re into old school Blaxploitation films, kung-fu, and funky fresh music, this movie is for you!

Freakin’ Awesome. This is SO well done it’s scary.

Apparently, we’re famous in China! The song we wrote together, Your Everything, was linked to a couple of sites in China somehow, and recently got so many downloads they had to shut down the file. So there you go folks… Butterfly7 made it big.

This week I decided to film myself playing the drums in Rock Band. I’ve never had so much fun learning to play an instrument before. This video shows me playing three songs on expert, and getting over 95% on them. The three songs in this video are CrushCrushCrush by Paramore, Joker and the Thief by Wolfmother, and Enter Sandman by Metallica (three KILLER songs by the way). I was quite surprised at how fast my hands move and how coordinated I am.

Once you get to the expert level, you really are playing the drums. And to test my theory, I headed down to Steve’s Music today and sat in front of an electronic drum kit for 20 mintues. I really can play the drums now! Awesome!

So what’s next? I’m getting the drum kit I was playing on as soon as we move into our new house. I’ve been waiting over 5 years to play the drums… now that I know I can actually play, I’m taking the plunge. The electronic kit I was looking at is not only insanely cool, it is fairly compact and allows me to play silently (on headphones). And who knows… maybe my time playing Rock Band will actually turn into playing IN a rock band.

Ok… since you’re all getting so close, and it all comes to an very soon, I’ll give out a more obvious hint today.

Jack’s Son Models Silver in the Birch Trails.

Good luck.

I hear the Birch in the Trails are quite lovely.

We’re going to be in Ottawa for the Easter long weekend! If you want the teasers to end, you better make plans to see us.

We have a temporary Ottawa phone number! It’s based on some new technology so it’s not quite 100% yet, but it just rings our main phone line and doesn’t cost us any extra, so feel free to call us on it. Ask if you want it.

I wonder what Stittsville is like this time of year?

We’ve been looking at floorplans and playing around with some ideas on colors and design.

After a very positive conversation a few days ago, we are now gathering our T4s and pay stubs to fax to people. Everything is going perfectly so far.
