Well guys, it is almost a new year. Yes, 2005 is looking like a fresh start for the boys here at Waking Moment. Be sure to check out the shows page as we are hoping to land a spot in the Linganore Talent Show again. Yes, we know, neither Chris nor Shaun are in high school anymore, but if the school decides to let us have a good time, we're there, and it will be Kyle, Brad, and Anthony's final talent show since they will be graduating this spring. Hope everyone had a good Holiday, we sure did! Later.

Hey Guys, as you can see, we removed the "board" page from the site. Someone delivered a holiday message to us, so we had to get rid of the page. Lata.

Hey Guys! First things first, Christmas Day is in one week! I hope that everyone is having a great Christmas Season and is looking forward to the new year. We had our first demo session Thursday and the feedback was very good. Our new style is still under wraps for the most part, that is until we get some quality recordings down. We are also excited about being able to play out more this coming year and getting to play with other great local bands. We have updated our picture page with some pictures from Thursday. Unfortunately, Shaun was not able to make it so he is not pictured. We have started mapping out concepts for the next album which will be our most dedicated and solid album to date. Also be sure to check out our links page for some great resources, organizations, and bands. If you are just surfing on the site, visit our board page and tag a little something about yourself so we know who you are. Lata.

Hey Guys - there is lots of stuff going on with Waking Moment. Be looking out for us, as we are working on getting some shows lined up now that we have some time on our hands. Although Anthony's band obligations and Chris' college life have slowed things down for a little while, everything is starting to take off again. Be looking for HOT new material brought to you by yours truly. Love ya.

What's up folks? Waking Moment is here for you, for parties, shows, and for just your general music needs. So let us know when you need us. The band has been producing songs in the, now world-famous, "Lab." We are very pleased with what's goin on. Ya' know, having fun is the most important part about being in a band. That is the key element. If nobody is enjoying themselves everything else falls apart. However, I am more than pleased to say that, for me, Waking Moment is an experience like nothing else. Making beautiful music with my 4 brothers is an experience I look forward to everytime I have the opportunity. Waking Moment is amazing, and I am glad to be a part of it. Until next time.

Hows it goin? Lots of great stuff going on with the band. We have updated the pictures finally, produced a killer movie, and we have been working on our material for future shows. So plan on seeing a great performance from the staff here at Waking Moment, as we are sure to leave a mark wherever we play! We have been bringing back old songs, writing new songs, and putting together a great medley of some of our beloved cover songs. We have decided to can the whole recording thing. If you really think about it, music is way more fun when you drop the BS and just enjoy yourself. We aren't on a major label like BMG... and our songs aren't written under ASCAP. We are Waking Moment. YES People - It is time to live again.

Man, back at college already. This summer was one of the best summers that I think I have ever had and now it is all done. You win some, you lose some, you know that's what Anthony always says. So here I sit at my job in the computer lab as I type and wonder if Shawn Michaels will make his triumphant return to Monday Night RAW tonight or if I will sit and wait for a few more weeks. As of right now a show, thats right, A SHOW, might be coming up in September. For those of you who view this site, I am sure that you are familiar with Music 4 Unity. My shift is over so I'm gone. Till next time...

Long time, no update. It has been a busy summer. If you have been checking into the site you probably have thought that Waking Moment is gone. Nope, we are still here. After a few vacations I really feel good. I am still finding my place here amongst the rest of the living, but things are slowly making sense. Ha! Just kidding. I have been hoping that everyone has been livin it up this summer and enjoying life. Once again our songs have taken another turn and evolved into a new style. The song writing process is incredible. A song can come together in 5 minutes, or 5 months. Brad lost his camera with updated pictures in a rental car so that is why we have no pictures yet. Have fun and go do something you love. Open up people, its time to live again. Byebye.

I have gotta tell you, this is going to be one interesting Summer. Already I have been facing challenges that are above me, yet somehow I keep on going. The thing that is ultimately important is that life is good no matter what. Through the challenges we overcome we become stronger. To some, that phrase was a cliche, but rest assured, many need to hear it. We don't need to drown in our depression or escalate our problems to levels of maddness, rather we need to face forward knowing the good things that await us. Every challenge is a new beginning. We learn so much everyday. We have been working on a collaboration of cover songs which has been a new experience altogether. Emulating great works of established artists really gives a musician a true challenge. We are hoping to play a few shows this summer, but already, the chances of that happening are low. So, if you are looking for a rare appearance of Waking Moment, perhaps YOU could help us to make that happen. In light of our new themes, we are changing our personal profile pictures as well. Drop some love in the guestbook and lets get this party started. Goodnight.

Hmmm, okay... so summer time is upon us once again, and after Spring there has been much change, mostly in my own thinking, which is to say beneficial. I have to say, in our lives we do not appreciate those moments that matter. We often ignore the times that we are alive and whole as people. Rather, people turn their attention to those times when we hate who we are, when we wish we were anything but ourselves, the beautiful people that we are. It has been in my own personal interest to explore those times that we overlook and try to make sense of the reasons we focus on the negative. I watch people of all ages everyday and see the ways in which we torture ourselves crying out for someone and hiding behind closed doors. It is time to turn around, to face the world as new people and be true to ourselves. In the light we can see and it is in the light of day that we rise to our Waking Moment.

Whats goin on everyone? We have been busy working on the studio version of "Ballad of the Fallen Sky" to send to MGM. Yes, believe it or not, a REPRESENTATIVE of MGM wants to hear our demo!! We have a show coming up...talent show that is. We are going for the win this year in the band category so come out and show your support. There will be lots of good talent besides us as well! We are also trying to get some Grange Hall shows in New Market. The woman in charge tried to tell us that there are no more shows there but that, of course, is a lie. We have the store page on the way, we just have to get the shirts finished. Oh yea, make sure you send Brad some love. He was in the hospital the other day. Don't worry, he is fine now. We love you bro. Till next time... Peace.

Hows it goin everyone? We have been trying to practice around my (Chris') schedule since I am in college. We are planning to play some songs off of the album as well as some brand new songs and a cover. We can't tell you what the cover is, but if you really want to know than email us. We are going to try to host a show with Bonaphyd in the spring because it is so freaking cold outside. We are also hoping to get into a battle of the bands at McDaniel College. More CDs are on the way for those of you who reserved copies. New pictures should be up within the next few weeks as well. Till next time, I bid you all farewell, and...Goodnight.
