		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to everyone who came to the Chapter House last night.  I had a great time playing for everyone.  I felt right at home playing for all of you.  There&#8217;s no place like home.

		<description><![CDATA[Why do I always feel the most inspired to work on music when I don&#8217;t have the time (i.e. endless schoolwork)?
A: I have already given up the possibility of social engagements that sometimes interfere with either
B: I consume more coffee than usual
C: Prochrastination impulses
D: Once I am forced to conjur the necessary inspiration for my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just posted a free EP to www.chrisfrank.org.

The Spring EP started with a challenge from Dana, on the last day of his visit: &#8220;Let&#8217;s record a song we haven&#8217;t written yet.&#8221;
I started with two short riffs on an electric guitar. He responded on an acoustic while I stepped into the other room to furiously write [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is where I was this weekend.  I came for the biochemistry PhD program recruitment weekend at CU Boulder, and I stayed to ski.  Caught a hell of a sunburn though.
I hope you had a good weekend too.  Chris just showed me some new music that he&#8217;s been assembling for an EP he&#8217;s working on.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hello,
I am glad to announce that our Sullivan Hall show went very well last friday.  I enjoyed every bit of it, and the Sim Redmond Band played beautifully.  Highlights included seeing new and old friends, jamming out to SRB, and playing in front of a smoke machine that made it look as though I was on fire!

		<description><![CDATA[I have, as of late become fascinated with the music of James Brown, in particular his drummer&#8217;s feel.  It&#8217;s all about touch. The lighter he plays, the funkier it feels.  Amazing.  As a rock drummer the &#8220;louder is better&#8221; mentality was drilled into my head early.  The fact that the motown drummers can get those heavy grooves [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rock music will make you deaf. So, eventually, will New York City, and I have the privilege of spending almost every minute of my time involved with some combination of the two. A year or so ago I purchased a set of custom earplugs&#8211;not those $2.00 pharmacy-grade styrofoam uglies, but molded latex works of art [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So here we are. Welcome to www.newneighbors.info.
On Sunday, 8 February 2009, the four of us had a videoconference and, after much debate, officially changed the name of our band. We talked long enough that we were pretty sure we could vote unanimously. I made the motion, I think, and John provided a second. Then all [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Remember that song-in-progress I posted a few months ago?
It grew.  And after hearing Henry Terepka&#8217;s newest recording, I decided to adopt his methodology and just keep adding tracks until a recording felt complete.  I did most of the work in one eight-hour session on Thursday, but made a few changes yesterday and this morning too. [...]]]></description>
