If people know where they are going, they can get there easier…

01/21/24 What’s up fellow blackhats?! Here we are, back again with another issue of the blackhat Buzz. Once again, we didn’t do much this week.

Suffering=Interesting Music, and also killer solos…

01/17/24 Hello and welcome to another week inside blackhat Studios. We haven’t had much in the way of shows over the last few weeks, but we are certainly working on a lot of other exciting things behind the scenes.

Title Shark, Do do do do do do

01/10/2024 Hey guys! Rhey here with a little update about this past week. After the busy holiday season we had, things have slowed down quite a bit.

Internet, We Barely Knew Thee…

I’ve still got no reliable Internet and didn’t want to type the whole thing on my phone this week, so let’s travel back to the time of the scribe and read a handwritten illuminated script I wrote for y’all this week. Misspellings and all… Enjoy.

Let’s Review, Shall We?

12/20/23 Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me. Let’s listen to some music and chat about it shall we? I know I said I was going to maybe interview someone again, but frankly it is incredibly challenging for us to schedule this sort of thing so when we think we have opportunities we tryContinue reading “Let’s Review, Shall We?”

What Day is it Again?

12/14/23 Hey Howdy Hey Homies! I’m back with yet another week of the blackhat buzz. Unlike last week, we didn’t really have much in the way of shows this time around. We did have our weekly open mic with Rhey and Chris on Tuesday. It was a fun night, but being so close to theContinue reading “What Day is it Again?”

The One Where I Wrote a Song

12/06/23 UPDATE: Like a jerk I forgot about an ENTIRE show! What a punk. Ok, so last Friday Matt did a show at Frogee’s with Desadera and a few other groups including our up-and-coming rock stars Heavily Discounted. I heard from Lady B that they have been writing their own original songs and performed oneContinue reading “The One Where I Wrote a Song”

What’s Wrong With Your Face?

Welcome back to another SUPER LATE, but also on time, issue of the blackhat Buzz.  I know I promised you all an artist spotlight, but in the depths of my infinite ADHD I completely forgot to talk to Doug Strange about ANYTHING related to his music when I had him in the room… TWICE! IContinue reading “What’s Wrong With Your Face?”
