Hello Assembly!
**Pics/Profile updated!**
My name is Zach and like each of you I love this band.
So I just experienced the best week, ever. Me and a few other Assembly members road tripped to Cleveland, Columbus and Indy for some 3eb and Assembly love. I recapped it here
Best Week Ever! Pt. 1 - Cleveland
Best Week Ever! Pt. 2 - Columbus
Best Week Ever! Pt. 3 – Indy (Assembly Lovefest)
I’m a musician and I’m absolutely infatuated with music. I listen to and play anything and everything I can. I have a very eclectic taste in music and I’m fascinated by the emotive qualities each new song or piece of music may posses. It’s an incredible release and there is something about Third Eye Blind's music that captivates and moves me like nothing else
Other than writing/playing music I enjoy movies, reading, gaming and doing what little skiing I can here in Ohio. I enjoying traveling and wish I could do more of it. I would like to travel out west and do some real mountain skiing soon. But above all I enjoy kicking back and hanging out with good friends and family.
These are some pictures of me playing live. There’s nothing else like it and I hope to be doing more of it soon. Hair’s a little shorter now =p
Some of the pictures from the two shows I just caught in Columbus in Cleveland. I was lucky enough to be in the front row for both. Something I'll never forget. I caught Brad's drum stick in Columbus and he signed it afterward. I also met Stephan for the first time that night as well which made it all the more special. Definitely the most amazing night =)

Assembly Love. (Top: Columbus, Center and Bottom: Assembly meet up in Indy)
Top picture is one of my favorites. I took it with just a disposable camera when I saw them outside of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, OH on 6/30/01. The scan doesn't really do it justice, but I have a poster size version blown up and hanging in my room. Love it.
The others are me meeting most of the guys after their show at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, Ohio on 5/21/03. I was lucky enough to meet Brad, Tony, and Arion. They’re incredibly nice, down to Earth guys and were really cool that night
Happy Halloween!! The 3eb pumpkin I carved this year.

Favorite 3eb Song: The Background
Current 3eb Song Stuck in my head: Second Born
No one sings along but Mom it will be all right!
First of all, tahnks for the tip about the ps3! We still couldn't find it, but that's alright. I really hnope it comes out in DVD, I want to be all egotistical and see myself in it. Plus, it was an amazing show! I don't understand why it's not out yet, especially sicne Best Buy was the sponsor. Oh well, there's many things about their production timing that I don't understand haha...
I know, I'm not very happy about the Bamboozle shows...i will probably end up going to them,. but i think my friend and I are going to try and make the trip to Atlantic City to see them at the house of blues..I feel like they aren't doing tha tmany shows and it makes me terribly sad, especially since i haven't seen them since october! That's far too long!
And about the posters, I'm definitely going to hit up ARcana about that, because we really do need more! If I can still get posters for bands that are broken up, I should be able to get 3eb ones (well, even though they're broken up too... :( )
Skiing! I haven't done it all winter, but have fun! Its so warm here i'm in shorts, which is crazy since it was snowing last week! I'm sorry you're stuck in the middle of that weather, but hopefully it's over now.
By the way, your band will DEFINITELY be opening for 3eb, just maybe not this tour hahaha ..you never know! My life is pretty boring, I am starting midterms this week so that's going to stink, and there's no good concerts, but that's alright. Hopefully this summer'll be wild with them and maybe i can make a roadtrip or two!
Have fun skiing!
Alyssa :)
zach! I just realized I haven't written back/been on here in so long! How's the jamming going? Are you guys going to be the new openers for 3eb? That'd be pretty rad! And are you done skiing? I'm guessing you guys have been getting a lot of snow, I know that CT has, but I just sit inside instead of being athletic and cool.
So I am officially 21, and it was really fun, but now I'm really poor because I've been going out too much haha. And being an RA is cool, except last night I got back from the bar at 230 and these girls were drunk and throwing up and my floor had a flood on it so I had to handle that, but I still love it- I get my own room and its HUGE...covered in 3eb stuff of course. For my birthday my friend made me the most beautiful work of art with all 3eb lyrics and I am obsessed with it! Did you ever get around to making another poster? I want to but everywhere I've been they've been asking for like 50 bucks, which is crazy because that's like two actual concerts of theres!
Speaking of concerts, when do you think they'll be setting dates? I really can't wait to see them again! Maybe make a little road trip this summer and go to as many as possible (which means i'll have to stop going out, but it's totally worth it haha)
Well, I hope life's treating you well!
Alyssa :)
Hey Dude! great story about the private set access...love the pics from all 3 shows too. curious but how'd you get to hang with lee away from the rest of the group, are you and your assembly crew "in" with her? How bout my Jets huh? I'm so pumped! Can't even wait for sunday.Rex is making believers out of all the media haters who thought he was just plain nuts.
All I know is I need a live 3eb gig soon or I'm gonna lose my mind.I'd love to have a huge assembly gathering here at a ny area show.Hey,in your first pic after your live performance ones, how is it you're up front and there's nobody around you, is that how it goes at an ohio gig? dude in ny shows, or jersey, its madness.No way you'd be front and center by sj for a photo op with nobody around you during a song..Crazy.Well bet the chargers are like wtf happened, how are we home and the jets advancing? 3 jacked fg's by kaeting, but s.d just looked sloppy to me.no descipline at all. Oh well 60 min away from miami! wooo hooo! be good dude
hahahhaa sorry i had to do it!!! i have much faith that your bengals will be back to annihilate next year! i really think ravens can bring it all the way honestly
hahah I tried everything to fix my virus; hp even got on it from india but they said i have to wipe it completely clean and start again, so I invested in the external harddrive, but no one can find me the right software...we'll see
and yes, moving to ohio would be awesome! Maybe a little difficult, but still a cool idea. I'm definitely going to be investing in some 3eb roadtrips this summer, so I will definitely be seeing more assembly people, maybe sporting matt's shirt :)
My holidays were good, I got way too many presents, but other than the cold I can't really complain. You skii? That's awesome- I've only done it twice and I was terrible but it is a gorgeous experience. I'm getting ready to move into ra life next week, so i've been doing a lot of shopping and my 21st birthday's on the 29th so I'm super excited...how's life with you?
ps: we're both terrible at this commenting-on-profiles-thing haha it's great
RAVENS!
dude whats up... long time no hear... I'm well and hope you are too....So I'm checking out your page and see how you got to catch a couple shows in a row in october.. sweet! how did you get into that private acoustic set. do tell do tell...as for the jets bengals. Yea i was there sunday night. I thought the jets would win, but not that convincingly.The bengals have been sputtering down the stretch and after suffering a defeat like that, I strongly feel like the bengals have a rough road ahead of them this weekend... best of luck to you. I don't come on here much. but hit me up at my email... ri3ebjets11@optonline.net... cheers bro
so i have seen you pictures before but i dont think i ever commented on them, they are amazing! and i love the assembly meet ups, so sick. i want to have a huge assembly party in twenty ten?!?! it would be epic!
HEY! It has been way too long! I know how it feels though, my computer has a virus so I can hardly ever come on...it's kind of pathetic how much I miss the assembly. :)
But your holidays sound like they have been going pretty great! That's awesome that you can actually meet up with assembly people, there is no one in CT, I'm convinced. My holidays are going great, I've worked every day but that's alright I guess...more money for 3eb concerts. I'm heading back to school soon though, so I'll have less hours and a need to find a third eye blind poster for my dorm! I hope you have a great New Years and dont' party too hard haha and maybe next year I'll make it to one of those western concerts! haha It was good to hear from you!
great pictures!
