Congrats Eivind, that sounds pretty rad! Good luck finding a non-burgerselling profession...Starbucks is always hiring, I hear now you need a masters though...I kid, I kid.
As for me, the band moved into a new FREE space last night (drummers parents house muahahaha) and I've got my No Memory coming in the mail. Life is good.

Having a free practice space is so nice. My bands is a 20 mile drive away but I'll take it.

It's funny how things work out, we had to leave our space and were searching for places to rent with little luck...then our drummer was like "oh, we can just jam at my parents house, they don't care". The free part makes up for the fact that none of us live too close to the house.

We got real lucky with our space. Our drummers dad owns a sign-making shop and there's a garage in the back, detached from it. Their family band was using it but they stopped so now it's just ours. So we've got a bar, couches, and a PA. It does get hot in there in the summer so we had to stop practicing late due to cops being called (it borders a residential area) but it's so convenient.

My band has been playing together for like 2.5 months and we will have played 6 shows by the end of the year.
Also guitarist got a bass amp so he can run his octave pedal through it and sound like not a two piece.
And we have a show on Halloween and we're playing Halloween covers with the other band. I get to play keys on Ghostbusters.

That sounds pretty sweet man, we were jamming at my guitarists apartment but being the loud ass noise rock mofos we are, that didn't last long lol.
The perks of this place is the drummers mom is a wicked cook haha.

Finally installed a black pickguard on my Edwards LP Custom and gave it a nice set up to Drop A#. It's got lots of dings and scratches, I feel good that I have a rad guitar that i've pleasantly wrecked.
Dooming away with too much delay and reverb

After three solid hours of scrubbing away, I've gotten rid of over half the rust on my motorbike's silencer. Going to put some protective stuff on it for the meantime, but in the future I shall be removing it, clearing all the rust off, and then spray painting it with heat resistant paint.
I feel accomplished.
