CD Release Party In Montreal - Pics And Thanks!

After working on our first album (Broken) for about 2 years and a half at Moonbabe Studios we finally released it on October 22nd, 2008. The CD release party was at Sala Rossa in Montreal. It’s a great venue, it’s really warm and it has a cool vibe (of course the fact that the walls are painted red helps a lot).

So, since it was our show I couldn’t just grab the camera and take pics all night! But someone else did! I just can’t remember who took the pictures but if you did and you’re reading this… well, thanks a lot! Good job! :)

Here we go:

I Couldn’t Help Myself - I Had To Redesign!

As you can see my site now has a new design (if you’re reading via RSS, come have a look!)

I was growing pretty tired of the previous design, so here’s v.8! The previous version was more of a social media hub, where I had my latest tweets (still there, but only once a week), Digg submissions, Del.Icio.Us bookmarks, Stumbles and Flickr pics. But with that format and layout I wasn’t able to actually write posts or anything. Sure I could’ve added this feature pretty easily, after all WordPress is a kick-ass CMS, but why do this when you can just go ahead and do a complete facelift? :)

Here’s a screenshot of the previous version:

Fan Getting Inked God Style By FreakyNat At Fetish Skin (tattoo shop) in Montreal

Now seriously! Our friend Fudge (nope, that’s not a nickname, it’s her real last name) is one hardcore fan of the band! She decided to get our logo tattooed on her torso! How crazy is that?

About Jon

Hey! Please make yourself at home! Grab a cup 'o coffee and have a look around the site! My name's Jon, I'm a web-designer, blogger and musician. I've been designing websites for many years now, and have started my own company, Spyre Studios, in 2007 and also launched a pretty successful blog called FreelanceFolder. I'm also the lead guitar in a heavy act from Montreal called The Gods Of Now.

About This Site

You could say this site is some sort of 'tumble-hybrid' site, or maybe some kind of blog but in a slightly different format than what we're used to. Well let's just say it's a mix between a life-stream and a blog (I guess). The site is built on Wordpress and hosted by MediaTemple.
