Apr. 15 update

Hey everyone, so I'm just updating you guys again on the status of Satnavania.

We had a great show last Friday at El Mocambo, playing bands like Supertest, Cold Coast, and Ruckus. We wished we could've stayed longer to see the other bands but unfortunately, we were on a tight schedule with rides and stuff.

But we played a new song in our set, Uh-oh, which me and Saadi wrote. A lot of ppl have been asking about who its dedicated to, and well, to be honest, its not just one girl, at least for me personally, wen i wrote the 2nd verse, there were like 4 different girls, and the song is basically just about having a crush on a girl, and not acting on it, and just waiting until its too late and she suddenly leaves.

Writing the song was really fun cuz it just came so easily, when Saadi told me what he was going for, right away i was like "oh shit, i know wat ur talking about" cuz it happened to me haha. lots of times in high school, I wasn't very bright, and u know, i was rlly good lookin haha but just never had the confidence or self-esteem, and totally blew a lot of chances, and so this song for me was to all those chances i missed out on.

One of the best parts about being in a band and writing music is that you can make it as personal as you want, but you can also write about fantasies and anything that goes on in your head. I was thinking of actually re-writing the verse, and i made somethign else thats a little dirtier haha but i'm rlly torn i think i mite stick with the original verse cuz its more real and close to the heart.

As for the band, we've decided to focus on our EP now, we wanna at least record some demos before our big show in June at the Sound Academy in Toronto. It's gonna be an awesome show cuz not only are we gonna be playing but all the best local bands in Toronto that have won in Supernova shows are gonna be playing with us.

We just wanna see you guys cuz itll really give us confidence and it'l be more fun of course, i love being able to sing and see you guys smiling back at me haha. We also did a little photoshoot, If you guys check out the pics on our facebook page. i got a really crappy haircut the day before so im not so proud of my appearance. Hopefully it'll grow out and i can redo the haircut that i wanted to get.

Anyways, i'm gona go back to workin on writing new songs about my past and future fantasies, and you guys just keep checking up on us, post on our facebook page and my twitter and just remind me that you guys actually care about our music!

keep on rockin
