Back from the Journey, and Less Than 2 Weeks From Home

As the title no doubt informed you, Javispa has concluded his Roman Theatre Tour. It was a blast, though Javispa is quite tired now. Nothing much more to say other than I will be returning home in less than 2 weeks (13 days to be exact). Javispa will be back in the USA, where all sorts of craziness will no doubt ensue.

That's all for now

Updates on song videos

Ok, so, now that I've gotten a few videos on to Reverb Nation, and the good Dan Baker has set up a Myspace, I've decided to do a re-recording of the Giant Dinosaur songs we have, a more professional looking one, with the band there to make the sound better (I hope the speakers can take us). But yes, I plan to do new videos of the following:

Summerset
Crane Wife 3
Goddess of Creation
Jacks and Knives

Now, do not fret, I won't take the old videos down, so you can still have our early days of performing. That's all for right now, look to next morning, where I will review the place I'm staying in., seeya

Update from Mula

Hello lovely viewers, all 4 of you, this is Javispa. I'm gonna be giving a few new updates from yesterday's blog, since I didn't really have much time to.

First up on the block: Travel

Javispa's Roman Tour has encountered a bit of a problem, and our trip to Granada has been cancelled, the tour is still ongoing, we will now be heading to Corpoba instead. We will be taking a ferry as well, and heading to Africa. More details to come.

Second item on the list: Other things that I promised on my Youtube channel.

Yes, that's right, my Youtube channel is still going to have politics and reviews, I've just been Spain, and a tad busy. I predict to do a review perhaps on my return from Spain, and political issues as well, don't worry all 2 of you who care to know, I haven't forgotten.

Anyways, I'm running out of time now, so until next time, farewell everyone!

A Blogger and a Vlogger

Welcome to Javispa's Official Blog of travel, music, and everything else I've promised to do on my youtube channel. I'm sitting in a restaurant in Sacunta and I just had ice cream (Nata and Strawberry). I would begin by giving some music updates, and I'll give any blogging viewers a sneak peek of Giant Dinosaur's upcoming concert. Though the date is unconfirmed, but the set list is as follows:

Failing in the Presence of Apollo (by Daniel Baker)
Island in the Sun (a cover by Weezer)
Sleep Sound (by Scarlett Menendez)
Cape Canaveral (a cover by Conor Oberst)
Goddess of Creation (by Javier Aladren)
Viva la Vida (a cover by Coldplay)

The Crane Wife 3 (a cover by the Decemberists)
The Tale of Eddie Olsen (by Scarlett Menendez)
Return to the Lizard Cave (by Daniel Baker)
Summerset (by Javier Aladren)
If You Find Yourself Caught in Love (a cover by Belle and Sebastian)
Sons and Daughters (a cover by the Decemberists)

To those of you in the area and availbe on the Xth of September, come on in and enjoy!

In other music news, Javispa is going to be uploading two new songs! "Jacks and Knives" (a rough work of the song is up), and "Scarlett on the Sea." These will be up shortly, and they should be pretty neat. Javispa is also announcing his new music project, to do a recorded performance of "The Tain," an 18 minute epic by the Decemberists, on a guitar only. A tough challenge, but look for the videos soon. I also returned from doing a miniature concert outside in the plaza. I was paid 80 cents for my services, so a good job there. My concert was:

O Valencia! (The Decemberists)
Summerset (Giant Dinosaur)
Cape Canaveral (Conor Oberst)
Record Year (The Decemberists)
Goddess of Creation (Giant Dinosaur)
The Seer's Tower (Sufjan Stevens)
We Both Go Down Together (The Decemberists)
Angels and Angles (The Decemberists)
Jacks and Knives (Giant Dinosaur)
The Crane Wife 3 (The Decemberists)
Viva la Vida (Coldplay)

In the travel world, as you have no doubt read, Javispa is touring the south of Spain in his "Roman Theatre Tour." This tour lasts for 7 days, and includes music performed by Giant Dinosaur's Javier Aladren. That's all the time we have today, so until next time, farewell!
