Happy Thanksgiving, You Bastards...

Hello Everyone,

Today is thanksgiving, and I'm working. Sucks right? It's ok though, because I desperately need the money! Todays blog isnt going to be just a string of punchlines, so forgive me for that.

thanksgiving is the day where we sit and remind ourselves how thankful we our of the things we have. It is sad that we need a day to remind ourselves, but I think its an important day just the same. I am thankful for alot of things, even though lately it feels like not that much. My life has changed so drastically in the past month, and today is the first thanksgiving away from my family.

I am thankful for my mom first of all. This year has been so hard on us all, especially her, and without her i would be on the streets right now. I am also thankful for my family members who have stuck by me over the years... you know who you are.

I am thankful for my friends. You know who you are! While I may seem like a self centered dick half the time, I swear I am really not and I care about you guys more than you will ever know. Matt, chris, daniel, ian, chad, edgar, allie, julie, ...neelofer. Even though I haven't been totally let you guys in on everything in my life for personal reasons, you guys are still helping me get through everything. I'm thankful for all the new friends I made this year, lance, dave, merri, gio, lucy lol, and anyone else i'm sorry if i forgot to mention you! you guys are all awesome, new or old, and I hope god blesses you on this day.

I am thankful for music, my health, and that you took the time out of your day to read this blog.
I am thankful that Epitaph Records didn't sue me. I am thankful that Travis Barker is alive, and that blink are finally talking again. I am thankful that I have a job, and that I am finally pulling a band together. I am thankful for so much, and while my life kind of sucks right now, I'm thankful that while there are bad things in my life, they just make the good things in life all the more important. A Little Death Makes Life More Meaningful..

Happy Thanksgiving and think of me out in the cold while you are all enjoying it!

what are YOU thankful for?

A Public Service Announcement...

"in the midst of everything else that has happened lately, tom, travis, and i have all spoken together. first through a number of phone calls, and then a couple of weeks ago we all hung out for a few hours. they’ve all been great, very positive conversations. we’re just reconnecting as friends after four years of not talking. it’s a good thing. obviously the first question for a lot of people will be “does this mean a blink-182 reunion?” the answer is none of us know. we haven’t talked about it at all. right now it’s just good for the three of us to see one another, reconnect, and let the past be the past. the events of the past two months supersede everything that happened before. life is too short."

-From Mark Hoppus' blog

That is all.

An ATROSS EXCLUSIVE: Premiere of New Found Glory's New Single: "Listen To Your Friends"!

This is an Exclusive recording taken from the "Listen To Your Friends" video shoot a few weeks ago. This song is the lead single from their Epitaph Records Debut "Not Without A Fight", which was produced by Mark Hoppus.

Here's the link; which while it may be low quality (Though I left it in WAV format to keep what quality it had), it should tide you over until the song offically releases soon:

LINK REMOVED AT THE REQUEST OF EPITAPH RECORDS! LOOK FOR THE OFFICIAL RELEASE OF THIS SONG AS AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT (LATE NEXT MONTH)!

Expect Teaser videos from the videos of the band wrestling each other to go online soon, leading up to the full video premiere.

Superchad Preview

My friend Chad came to visit for a week this summer. No one knew he was coming except for me, so it was fun suprising everyone! I took video of our adventures the entire week, and this is the first five minutes of my upcoming documentary; "Superchad", filmed over the week of August 14th.
