hey, ivison has a show friday night july 18th at stubbs. we are in need of some volunteers to do some small but very important things, merch, hand out cds, take pictures, party like its 1999.

ivison is gearing up to hit it hard again, and we want to build a team of supporters that believes in this thang as much as we do. if your interested in helping out and having fun at a great show, send me a message!! thanx

made ya look!!

well now that your here, ill give you an update. lets see...hmmmm....OH YEAH, ivisons full length, 14 song, debut album is crossing the finish line. we are test mixing a few different tracks in some of our favorite studios, and will be making a decision soon. its very exciting, and i am proud of both jayme and myself for what we were able to bottle up. it is a diverse album, alot of both of us, and covers alot of ground both lyrically and musically. cant wait to get it in your hands. if you go to www.ivisonmusic.com you can hear a snipit of "before the fall" and get details about our upcoming show at stubbs. make sure you move the mouse around because there are some hidden links and such. word. love. b

so, its going on two years of being an austinite. dont worry my austin friends, i know im an import!! although i do have the name so ha! by the way, sometimes when i tell people my name they look at me like i changed it when i moved here. its funny when you live in a town with so much industry. it wouldnt be that wierd for someone to do such a thing to be more marketable or some crapola like that. not this guy!

ive moved around quite a bit. ive also been playing more and more every week. im slowly but surely getting out there. its been tough trying to re-establish myself out here, but im making progress everyday. its easy to get sidetracked. ive met some great people out here, and also the self absorbed folk that like to change names, and try to bring you down. its impossible to replace my dear friends back home. i know i never will nor will i try. i have my good days and bad. i still have a distance left to run, and aint nobody getting in my way!

the ivison album has been in the works for about a year now......whoa! it WILL be released in the spring of 08. i know all of you are like yeah right, but i promise! i hope you will agree that the wait was worth it. this is the album of my life, or up to this point anyway, so a year aint so bad when you put it in perspective. jayme and i have really been stretching ourselves in all ways imaginable and its been one crazy trip. we got some good songs, good sounds to tape, and im learning more and more everyday about engineering and producing. we started with something like 80 song ideas and we have ended up with 15. we will probably have some b sides. we arent really booking the band, but we have been invited to do some great shows, stubbs, mohawk, lucky lounge, momos, and an array of others. we are going to push really hard once the album is done.....look out!

i miss all of you, and some of you i dont miss, but thats because i see you all of the time! stay true or that shit will come back to you!

love

so, this election year im really trying to stay in touch with these talking heads. as i really dont like any of them enough to hang out with them, and they are all pretty much out of touch. i like to think my vote still counts, and even if it doesnt what else are you bums doing.

ive become aware of the fact that even with all the coruption, us, the people, more so my generation can take a little bit of fault with the fact that weve ended up with this son of a bush in the white house for the past 7 years. i personally know several friends that dont vote because they dont think it matters. just try.......for me......its the way of the future. it cant hurt right? this is a easy vote calculator that will match you up with the candidate closest to your views. you might be surprised.......
