Jackson Reed-It's All Coming Together

Quite a bit has happened since christmas. School started up for me once again, and I just got back from quite the trip. Over the weekend I went up to Edmonton with my buddy to see my Calgary Flames play the Oilers in the new Rogers Place. This trip was very personal for me, as a huge hockey fan. The Battle of Alberta brings out the wild animal in me, I despise the Oilers with a passion that’s as big as my passion for music. Just as big is my passion for the Flames, and me and my friend knew we had to go on this mission up there. It was only my second time in Edmonton in my whole life, so it was interesting to get to see the city a little better than I had previously, I wasn’t missing much in my opinion. After spending saturday afternoon at West Edmonton Mall, we made the trek downtown to the arena. When I first stepped inside it and seeing how massive it is was very impressive, but knowing it was all for the Oil made it very unlikable for a guy like me. Going down and sitting in the front row before warmups made me miss the Saddledome back home. The dome’s got this history, this character that Rogers Place just didn’t have in my mind, despite being much more impressive technologically and aesthetically. We brought a poster with us that read “Saddledome’s still better, Go Flames Go!”, with a photo of Matthew Tkachuk (our agitator and already a hated guy in Edmonton despite being a rookie) with angel wings and a halo, and a photo of Connor McDavid, with the oilers logo replaced with a muffin cause that’s what he is. The boys came out and a few guys like Dougie Hamilton, Sam Bennett, and Matt Stajan noticed our poster. I hope we made them feel a little more comfortable knowing they had backup in there. Then we went over to where the Oilers were warming up and put up our poster. It ticked off their goon Zack Kassian, who sakted towards us glaring right at us while we glared back unfazed. Then the Muffinboy McDavid, looked at our poster then looked us right in the eye. He then spent the next couple minutes trying not to look at us while we stared him down, glaring angrily. This was probably the highlight of the trip for me. Then we went up to our seats up higher and the game began. It was a back and forth affair, that ended with the Oilers winning in the shootout. It was a piss off for sure to lose a game so tight in the shootout. I wasn’t too impressed with how the fans acted the whole game. They would boo both teams when there wasn’t a ton of action going on. When our best player Johnny Gaudreau was taking his shootout attempt, the fans behind us were yelling for him to kill himself and using other foul language. When leaving, some of them heckled us on the way out. I’ve never seen this behaviour at Flames games in the dome. Oilers fans are sure cocky despite having been the worst team for a decade, and getting lucked into getting a generational talent. All in all, losing made it feel so disappointing to drive all the way up to Edmonton to lose. But there’s nothing to do now, and I can take solace in the fact that the Oilers won’t be making it far in the playoffs if they don’t get any scoring from their players besides McMuffin. Now I’m back in Calgary continuing to practice guitar, and working on putting a band together for the rise up tour. Hopefully that comes together soon, I know it will.

Thanks,

Jackson Reed

John Lennon - InMemoriam

I was born the day John Lennon died. I’m an idealist, like John. I don’t have his talent, but I wanted to spread the word about his poetic message and music once again, and pay an humble tribute to this great artist and the Beatles!

December 8th 2016 was the 36th anniversary of John Lennon tragic death. To celebrate his memory and musical contribution, I'm proud to offer you our studio recording of Can You Imagine (The Killing of John Lennon) a song that will be on our next album, Flower Power Soul, due Spring 2017. Hope this song warm you heart, on this cold December day. 

Listen to the song Can You Imagine (The Killing of John Lennon) here:
