Ah Milton. This was the very beginning for ole Tom Tier on drums. Formed durring 8th grade the band featured Hans Wendlant on gutair and vocals, Ben Millay and later Drew Whitney on Bass, and my self on drums. This band was my introduction to playing live shows and this recording was my first attempt in a "studio", (Ryan Einstein's Basement). We had a couple of really rad songs that never made it to the recording stage and that's a real shame. Lost to the sands of time.

Sunny Days

I joined McAsh when I was 15. They had been playing around for a few years and Milton had played a few shows with them in the Southern Vermont Area. We traveled all over the New England area and played a ton of shows. This band is responsible for increasing my comfort level in the live setting. Not just playing on stage but the whole process of loading gear, sound checking, and dealing with everything else that happens when you are in a D.I.Y. band. What I really took away more than anything from this band is a ton of great memories and stories from just hanging out and being great friends. We spent a ton of time together in a very non-judgmental environment and it really allowed me to develop my own identity as a person and musician. The original members of the band have continued to throw reunion shows over the last 10 years or so and even re-recorded the original album http://whatdothlifevt.bandcamp.com/album/return-to-badash . They also went on to form a really sweet rock and roll band The Jobz http://whatdothlifevt.bandcamp.com/album/the-jobz
