Troll free-politic free post so any haters that troll move right along. Note to self-Time for cleansing. Everything is heating up around the documentary. I'm grounded till spring from any large gatherings, but I'll be behind the scenes rattling up memories and helping out wherever I can. I suspect I'll be reaching out to bands and get some zoom interviews lined up over the winter. Merch and lots of other very cool sh*t is brewing. Proud and so very thankful of everyone that has been a part of this film adventure. I haven't seen much, but hearing lots of positive feedback from Ricky and kids reaching out this past week to share their experience interviewing. Emotions are running deep and wild. Feeling pretty great about things on The Kave front amongst much hate in this world. Good prevails over evil, and I'm thinking like it's 2002 all over again. What it all meant to those that came here permeates everything. I feel you. For anyone that wishes to submit their stories here is the link.
P.s. I miss bands putting their stickers everywhere. This photo is the sound booth. Still standing strong. Memories staring back at my soul waiting to be told.

Huge thanks to everyone willing to be interviewed for The Kave documentary. Ricky is in Portland all weekend and I will post the link to sign up if you wish to add your two-cents worth in a comment below. You kids and bands made The Kave what it was. She would have failed without you all.

This was the permanent look on my face at shows not at The Kave. The terrified mom look at the crazy antics of the kids and bands. We all loved Barium so much. Our scene changed big time when we lost Nick. Thankful Aaron Pepelis was always around documenting the chaos. We have strong and deep memories.

Back like a bad penny after a damned rough patch.Things are heating up fast. Boston we are coming for this gig, and I will be relentless contacting everyone for interviews for this leg of The Kave documentary. So many kept this place and me going over the years. Ricky and Austin are working out the fine details, and as always Adam will be chauffeur and guardian angel. Poor kid will have his hands full as I'm fairly unsteady. Need to keep my health on track for 3 weeks to make this trip happen. HXC goals.
