Cracking open Twenty One Pilots’ latest.  So far it sounds designed to be played superfluously.  I can barely process what they are saying or making me feel, besides the first track I listened to on internet rock radio at work a few times (Houston and Nebraska).  I booked a trip to see my friend and roommate from Berklee in greater Kansas City.  KC extends over the border of Missouri and Kansas.  I think I was there in 2005 when we were following Dave Matthews Band and playing music in the parking lots.  So this will probably substitute Mexico City, at least for this year.  Speaking of extending our demo album entitled One Way to Bangkok, I have a new take and sheet music for two tracks.  “Stella” which inspired the entire album may be put down on this future trip following the 40th/41st units of blood donations since it needs keyboard chords.
