We’ve got thoughts and a video for you, but first, here’s a public service announcement from GRACE@ARMS:

It’s never too early to start laughing at people who think the world will end in December.

And on to our New-Years-y Friday thoughts!

Bastion:

It’s important to look backwards from time to time.  It can be surprising how far you’ve come and how much you’ve achieved.  The future will always be fraught with fear, confusion, hope, love, and despair, but the past will always be a long list of accomplishments.  As it turns out, the best isn’t necessarily the best, the one isn’t necessarily the one, and the end of everything doesn’t have to be the end of anything at all.

The band had a great meeting and practice this week!  Getting geared up to kick off a series of concerts in 2012!  I hope Indianapolis and Muncie are ready for some fresh blood, because we’re coming.  AND WE’RE COMING TO ROCK!
