Happy First Day of Summer Folks!

[Lotharr]

Hey everyone... just dropping by to say hello and wish everyone well on this first day of Summer!

Not much new here for me, except the kids are getting big (my oldest will be driving this August... egad!) Both boys are now officially in high school. I am feeling older by the day.

I am still not playing any games with any degree of dedication as I had to UT99, although I watch over my boys' shoulders as they play COD, Red Dead Redemption, and NHL10. The only game I've played through to the end in the past several years in The Force Unleashed, because I am a total Star Wars nerd. Aside from that, I just don't have the time to devote to gaming anymore.

I'm still involved in my band Mind's I (our 5th CD is off at Discmakers being pressed now), but to be truthful, this is probably our Swan Song. We're playing what will likely be our final engagements in Chicago over the 4th of July, then we have a New Year's Eve show, then nothing else. Our singer is usually busy booking himself solo gigs, and the other 3 of us started a cover band called Mr. Furley that is starting to take off a bit. The love for keeping Mind's I going after almost 16 years is rapidly dwindling.

Well, that's about it. Happy belated Father's Day to all you Dads! I hope everyone is doing well.

Great to see ya kicking Lotharr! I don't think anyone games anymore...lol we just lurk around and occasionally talk about the glory days like this place is a retirement home for hardcore oldschoolers. Minds I making it this long is a real statement of the friendships you guys have in a day and age where bands don't last months but you guys have lasted years!

Hey Lotharr, Same deal with the family here. They get big, we get busier and gaming goes by the way side. But... I just got a PS3 and The Force Unleashed for Father's Day so I guess I'm following in your nerdy footsteps.
I hope your last shows are your best and most memorable and you have just as much fun with your new gig!
