many attempts have come and gone for the 17:3x in pitch perfect, mostly by way of me choking

Not very long, and similarly, forever. One of the groups I play in has a big binder of tunes that we’ve been consistently adding to since 2018

Just played music in the courtyard of a hotel for 3 hours for probably less than 15 people throughout the duration

I found out about the gig 2 days ago

Challengers: Eve, The Empathetic

Just about a decade ago, Melee seemed like it was heading toward something big. The Smash Brothers documentary came out and was a resounding success story. Everybody knew the Five Gods, Leffen, and…

I was pretty content with the idea that I’d be in my 30s, maybe finally release some cool music sometime and play it on a late night TV show, but I guess we’re losing those too

had a great time at JMU for Duke It Out 3, got 2nd in melee to Hua (beat them 3-1 in winners and got 6-1d in grands ouchie) and was lucky enough to stay with my in-laws to not drive another couple hours back home

Next melee event will be Mikey’s on Friday, hoping to have a good PR season 🤓
