I'm proud of them too. Some of ya's thought I was sick this week when ya talked to me on the phone. Nope. I lost my voice for a day or 2, screamin for those kids to win the contest at the top of my lungs. The band with the loudest applause and cheers had the best chance, so I figured losing my voice was a small price to pay.

I'm proud to report that I can still throw down a sick scream like I used to do old school, but I can't hit those high notes anymore. Some of the youngbloods looked at me like I was crazy, but I couldn't help it. Suppress the Silence is generating a good buzz and getting a lot of hits now on their MySpace page. I'm glad to to whatever I can to support the kids. I'm real proud of them, and hope they can turn this into something.

Pebbles' oldest son designed their latest CD cover. It's so good I thought he paid someone to do it, but he did it on the PC.

Hoping for good mojo for Suppress the Silence. They're good kids, a lot better behaved than I was at that age.

They deserve it.
