Long time no blog....updates...

Its been months since I last blogged..

Life has been good , busy with tours, been on the road since the

beginning of the year..I guess I am living a dream, but there has been one thing that I havent been good at... Its taking care of myself...

let me see...where do i start??

Since the beginning of the year, I moved back to HK and have been

stationed. Kowloonatics,That's a CB fresh word. Yes I am a KowLoonatic....

Khalil,Kay,Justin were my main clients this year, for recordings, concerts and tour.

Of course , my own projects as well, EUGENE and the POWS,a fun,non

stress,barely any rehearsals required coz thats just how tight we are!!!,Junk unit and guest drummer on the PETE MOORE band.

The rest of the time have been divided between recording sessions,

production work and finally the almost completed Drum, bass and Guitar tracks for my long awaited album.ohhh...and Soler's new album as well.Played on the whole album....so much has happened in their career, that's another chapter...god bless...

Fast forward to the August summer tour with "BODYCHECK" second day

into rehearsals, maybe I was jetlagged from Justin's N.american tour, I had "TENDILITIS", the inflammation of my tendons, on my right ankle, my kick drum feet. I got hurt it while finishing up "Swing's album". played drums on 2 songs. a combination of lack of sleep, power drumming and a weird diet. I literally could not walk for days. show day came with body check and I was limping big time.

thank god my long time friend and physio therapist ,Joe Lao @

PRO-HEALTH ( MACAU )saved me.Electrolysis,accupuncture,and ice to stop the swelling. I was walking in no time, only to twist my left ankle 2 nights ago during my break in a Hang Zhou JZ Jazz club.

That place is a danger zone, Bass player Pete Scherr fell Twice

walking towards the stage and I severely twisted my left Ankle after going to the bathroom on the second floor....I have NO IDEA how that happened.All I can do is blame the design of the staircase, but that would sound too absurd wouldn't it??!!  SO its my dumbass, that don't know how to walk down a freaking staircase.Its only 30 plus years I have been walking up and down stairs......

well, it still hurts and am still kicking ass on the kit.

Last show tomorrow in Nanjing,

Still have mixed feelings about china...

a love / hate thing...

BODYCHECK has been a great experience and the musicians are just unbelievable....

I think we might do another tour next year...

well...I am sharing this blog with yall for 2 main reasons...

1,updates of course and also, remember to rest well....

2.The road ahead of us are filled with bumps and

landmines(figuratively speaking), and if we are not physically capable, we can get hurt easily...

in my case,both my ankles within 2 weeks.
