My time in Hawaii

Posted on

Good Morning World!
I am back from Hawaii. Two weeks of walking the dog, hiking mountains, seeing an active volcano, walking the beach, swimming and eating a half ton of Poké.
 
A lot of my friends have mentioned to me that they could never live in Hawaii. They would get bored too easily. I can honestly say, especially after reading this article (link below) on being an introvert, that it would be a welcoming change for me.
 
I can already tell what you are thinking. You’re a front man in a rock band… how can you be an introvert? Well, being an introvert doesn’t mean that I am shy of people, nor does it mean that I don’t like people. Introverts need alone time and solitude to recharge. That is what makes us feel alive. Extroverts, on the other hand, need people around them to recharge. It doesn’t make either of us ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ (Read my blog post on what I think about right and wrong) So… I could easily live out the rest of my days in Hawaii.
 
While I was in Hawaii I was fortunate enough to have a time difference of 10 hours between Hawaii and Sweden. I would wake up in the morning and have tracks off of the new album in my email. Andy LaRocque and Steven Rice were working diligently on perfecting the sound for our next album, ‘All Men Shall Fall’ while I slumbered away in the perfect Oahu nights. I’d wake, have coffee, and listen to them while working on the CD sleeves and inserts. Getting all of the lyrics, credits, etc. in order. I can’t wait for you all to hear this album. We’ve already shuttled it out to labels, reviewers and select close friends to give you the best of it all. If you would like to write a review of this new album and you have blog that you regularly do reviews, hit me up.
 
All Men Shall Fall has been a labor of love for months now, and now that we are done we can sit back and enjoy what we’ve brought to the table. Not only have we completed this album, but we are also touring with Raven and Hirax in Europe starting in June. Raven were also invited onto the Monsters of Rock Cruise for 2018. Who knows… maybe you’ll see us on there too. 🙂
 
Peace and Aloha!
David
