April is Autism Awareness Month! Across the United States and beyond, the autism community is celebrating its members, holding special events to raise awareness, and raising money for research. This month, I’ll be highlighting as many national and local events as I can — so please feel free to send me information about autism events in your area!
Autism Speaks was founded just a few years ago by Bob Wright, CEO of NBC and grandfather to an autistic child. Last year, it merged with the National Alliance for Autism Research (NAAR). With strong ties to Hollywood and the media, Autism Speaks is VERY busy this month.
Some of the highlights of the Autism Speaks agenda this month projects include a new Public Service Announcement to be launched nationally; special fundraising programs with Build-a-Bear and TJ Maxx, and, most importantly, NAAR’s annual walkathons across the country to raise money for autism research.

I think I can speak for the band when I say how honored we are to have Jeff from Samuel Audio come out to our practices and be patient with us and our smart-ass comments and still be able to get a really good recording. I don’t think we can ever thank you enough for taking your time to record us and then all the time you spend mixing stuff down to make us sound good.
And Wes, thanks to you as well for spending the extra time and attention to the details on how we were set up and being part of the mixing outside of any normal band stuff we have going on. I know there is more to all of that than I understand.
All that crap aside take a listen to our first 3 of 6 songs that will be on the first official BHD Demo.
If the way the website looks changes its probably because I’m playing around with it. If there was a look that you actually liked remember what it was and let me know of if you have issues with the current look you can let me know as well.
This is kinda cool. Using 3rd party software to edit the post
