One on One Interview With Eric Scott Of Mindspell

 Hello everyone!

Today, myself and my twin brother Chad decided to head out to the Mount Union OIP where I managed to get a one on one interview with a buddy of ours named Eric Scott to talk about himself as well as the band he is currently playing with called Mindspell.

Eric is the lead guitarist for the band and has been playing music for over thirty years. Get to know the man behind the music and learn what makes him so passionate about the music he creates.

First and for most, I would like to personally thank Eric for meeting with me to do this interview with me for my blog post. I also hope you all will enjoy this fun little interview we had.

JY: What inspired you to become a musician?

ES: My grandfather used to play the guitar. We use to sit on the porch and he would play some old country music like Johnny Cash and I thought to myself, what I could do with this.

JY: Who were some of your influences?

ES: Slash was my first favorite, Zak Wylde and Dimebag Darrell from Pantera.

JY: What is it like playing in a band in front of a live crowd?

ES: It's my passion! I love playing for a crowd!

JY: What is your goal for the future of yourself and or the band?

ES: We basically are doing this for fun. We are not worried about about being better than anyone else. We just want to have a good time with the crowd.

JY: What advice do you have for someone looking to make music?

ES: Take time to learn the theory behind the music. That's what makes the music!

I once again would like to say thank you to Eric Scott for doing this little interview with me. He has also informed me that the band Mindspell will be performing two new original songs in future events for the band. I help keep you posted for future updates. 

I would also like to thank Mount Union OIP for allowing us to do this interview and I really am thankful for our waitress Bobbie Jo for taking such good care of us. 😁

If you would like to know more about the band Mindspell, you can check them out on their facebook page.

Hope you all had fun reading this interview.

Until Next Time! God Bless and Be Safe!

Lewistown Area High School Class of 2009

 I can't believe it has been 15 years since me and Chad have graduated from Lewistown Area High School back in 2009. High school was a very interesting time for not just myself, but for many of us who had attended, mainly because usually times at high school is the time of getting to know ones self and discover who they are and what there place is in this world. Being a teenage to becoming a young adult can be very challenging to a lot of people during this time in life. Especially with dealing with all sorts of different emotions that we didn't understand before. Sadly, there are also a lot of young people who struggled to figure things out during their time in high school and I was certainly one of those people.  I mention this because recently I found and looked back through my yearbook when I graduated from Lewistown and it was pretty cool to see some old faces especially now that I am older and learned so much about myself. The only problem about this is I wish I knew what

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting
