Peter Matteson is the crossof lorraine

So for the 3rd year in a row i feel cool.

I'm going on tour with Ben and Tim.  These shows will be amazing,

This is what inspired me to do the cross of lorraine.  I now have 12 songs and will be recording the whole record by friday.  I start tommorrow. 

The only problem is that if you live in nashville and want to see me you haver to come to the end.

I'm playing with two other bands on August 9th, cease upon the capitol (murfreesboro) and the third memory (france).  I will have prerelease solo records, Limited edition of course, and they will include a voucher for the real one after it gets touched up by scherer and mastered by mr van sloan.  The band will be named the cross of lorraine and the record will be titled "a plauge on both your houses."

Jonas Michael Walker was born around 2:50 pm on friday. He's rad didn't even cry when he got his shots.

I'm working on finishing the last (read 11th) song for the cross of lorraine solo record.

Monday i am getting together to play for the first time with our new drummer (fingers crossed)

I have a new phone number so if you need me want to cuss me or want to talk about the absurd lack of coverage that the worlds most popular sport gets on sports talk radio, write me and i'll give it to ya.

apparently i was unclear

I did let band members go.  They didn't quit.

But dcm needs to tour more than 15 weekdays a year and Protomen has become top priority for ash and kee.  So it was either call it quits after 8 years of work just now seeing rewards and with a street date in mid august or figure out stage 1000 of this project's development.  Feel free to tell me how stupid or unfeeling this is and then consider 1.5 years verus a lifetime. 

I still think that there is a reason for this music and that requires commitment, professionalism, and sacrifice. 

I may be a jerk, but this is my life, not my hobby.  I did not make this choice lightly nor did i make it in a vacum.  I hope you can all understand.

thank you

Tour Le Fin:New Yerk and beyond the infinte

After hopping on a subway from Brooklyn to Manhattan, walking for hours around Little Italy, Chinatown, The Financial District, Ground Zero Etc., playing the show at the Mercury Lounge, partying hard afterwards (including a visit to the Alligator Lounge for free pizza), waking up the next day in the afternoon...we decided to hit the road and drive straight back to Nashville...all day, all night, all day. So, we're home, we're alive, we're not entirely choking each other to death..but we're alive.

New York was amazing. Wonderful city. I loved every moment of it; the sounds, the smell, the food, the people...everything. Thank yous big time to all the friends in the area that made it out and party'd with us in the bus.

after eating pizza and passing out in Brooklyn, we woke up to the afternoon of the next day, loaded up the Deathbus and drove alllll the wwaaaaay back to tennessee...took forver..like 18 hours or something.

wandering the alleyways of NYC

Ground Zero, World Trade Center...very hallowing experience

all the buzz the night of the show

After the show we wandered across the river to Brooklyn for some free pizza at The Alligator Lounge...for real..for every single drink you buy, beer, liquor, etc., you get a whole free pizza..GENIUS!

Well we're home and happy for it. Keep your ears and eyes open!

as always, enjoy the whole album at

If you want to know what it's like to be matteson
Current mood: nostalgia for things that have yet to occur

So ever now and again I google us. A couple things i found within the first ten listings were people wondering if it really is comesto and not comes to and an interview that said Ship of fools, or ship on fire would be out by September 2005. city paper 2005

We had a different guitar player who has moved on to better things. We went on a tour without him (due to butting heads and my inability to loosen the reigns of control, plus stuff like college and growing up) or Walker (due to the wonderful world of Starbucks).

Now we are working on a tour (back to NYC June 5th through the 18th) And have released the record. Only a year and a half off.

I'm very thankful to everyone at SMM which didn't exist then, and our guy in NYC who has risen from intern at that time to second in command at his company now. But I'm back at the boundr'y and thinking the same things.

They are all going to quit.

No one gets it.

and I'm a fool.....Come on "comesto."

So as always I set that next deadline. That next line in the sand, as we all do.

After this i will know. Whether I should just give up, or once when I wondered if this was really what love was (if I'd give it up for her, then yes), if music can mean anything anymore (is it nessecary), if we are all doomed to pervert every well intended thing to a game of sex and violence, and how many nights my mom wonders if all the frustration that comes from being this intense will be worth it.

We will always make deadlines.

We will always wonder.

Just plunge your hand in and see if the wound is real. But if it's not, are we destroyed?

Ask yourself not if it will be worth it, but if today was worth it. Not as a path to something but what is the value of your life today as an insignificant singer, breather, waiter, student, video store clerk, shirt printer or whatever.

If we live today like it's our last, but don't do anything that will guarantee that it should have been.

Will i ever learn? probably not
Those of you who have shown me love, not just as an artist but as a friend make it worth every neurotic tick. Every stupid blog. But today was a good day no gat and no ho hitting.

thank you
matteson
