Introducing . . . !?!?!

I'm lying. I just wanted to make this post seem more exciting than it actually is.

Anyway, I (Kid Supreme) decided that it has been too long since we have last spoken, therefore, here I am in blogging mode.

I hope you're all doing well. I am doing just fine, the semester is coming to a close and I feel pretty good about it.

I also have a show this Saturday at Roger Williams University. Although I vowed to never play another show for them again, I am not really in the driver's seat of this band, so I could not voice this fact. The band is currently known as City, which is subject to change depending on when we really get our shit together. It's kind of Math Rock/Post-Hardcore/Indie, not exactly sure how to classify it yet, we'll see as we write more songs, we currently only have four and a fifth is in the works. I play the bass guitar in this band (weird I know), and it's fun, the guys in the band are cool, but we'll see how things work out come next year when we have to find a new drummer.

I'm also very excited to get home because that means, as always, The Bridal Shower will be back in action. I have spoken with Mushmouth and we're both very excited. Mushmouth has informed me that he will be working on some other projects this summer as well. Depending on circumstances matador may be back in action, all depending on if our bassist returns from his unprecedented adventure to New Mexico. I will be working on some new Unsuccessful Fisherman material too.

Well, I believe that wraps everything up that we needed to discuss. I hope I see you at some shows this summer as we have plans to play some, perhaps in the Big City? One never knows.

As always, stay fresh, stay cool, stay clean,
Kid Supreme

Causes

Last night I had a dream that a plane crashed on the lawn in front of my building.

Today, I walked to get some lunch, and heard some noise about evangelicals preaching about reforming homosexuals, and other anti-gay nonsense. The school I go to is VERY VERY open and accepting of all types of people, so I had to wonder what exactly they were thinking coming here.

On my way back to my room, I saw a huge group of people pushing the two evangelicals off of school property. Thank god, I thought.

But they stopped short, right at the edge of the lawn on the front of my building. I could hear a megaphone, and it started to look like a protest.

I walked over, and sure enough, a group was gathering to protest these fuckers coming to our campus and preaching their hatred.

I feel very strongly on matters like this, so I skipped class and took part in the protest, until the person who was leading it decided we were giving them too much attention, and should leave, so they would have nobody to rile up. Still, I stayed on the opposite side of the lawn, watching to make sure they left.

Apparently they had a permit to be here until 5. I just got out of class (6ish), and they're gone.

Things like this give me hope that people actually care about the things that matter. There had to have been at least 200 people protesting, as opposed to two evangelicals with huge signs. As sick as their views made me, I was so happy that my community reacted so quickly and with such strength.

Who cares if you're gay or straight? I love you anyway.

I love you all.
