Framing Hanley review

Framing Hanley is a band of 5 extreamly talented people who have a very interesting name and variety of music. The bands name was originally "Embers Fade", The bands name changed when a friend of the group named ashley hanley died in a car accident she was a close friend to all the band members and they got the name because she loved to take pictures of the band and they just used her last name and now boy's and girls you have framing hanley! They formed their band in 2005, they released Thier first album in 2007 entitled " the moment". High-school friends Chris Vest (drums) and Luke McDuffee (bass) met vocalist Kenneth Nixon upon entering college, while guitarists Brandon Wootten and Tim Huskinson joined the lineup soon after.  Framing Hanley’s second album A Promise to Burn is full of tight-fisted melodies, soaring guitars, and yearning harmonies that express the joy of artistic expression and the duality of being in a rock band with lines like My life is a WarZone/ torn between what’s right and wrong (WarZone). Unlike The Moment, which was written by a bunch of giddy kids who had never left their home town, A Promise to Burn was culled from years of experience, revealing both the triumphs and tribulations of being in a successful rock band. It’s an honest, unflinching record that illustrates how hard it can be to find the silver lining inside the dark clouds and at the same time, how some of the best rewards can come from not giving up on dreams, says the band.  Through Facebook and Twitter, the band has uploaded a video explaining everything that has happened to them in the past year. Nixon explains the band leaving their record label and the struggle to make another album. They created a Kickstarter campaign to help fund their record, believing that their fans could cover the cost of making the new album by only asking a dollar per fan. Framing Hanley enter the studio to record their successfully funded album. On August 17, 2012, Framing Hanley revealed the title of their third album would be "The Sum Of Who We Are".  Framing Hanley’s second album A Promise to Burn is full of tight-fisted melodies, soaring guitars, and yearning harmonies that express the joy of artistic expression and the duality of being in a rock band with lines like My life is a WarZone/ torn between what’s right and wrong (WarZone).

book review: The ghost of the mcbride house

What is it about the McBride House that serves as a beacon to the dead? Built in the oldest town in Oklahoma by physician George McBride in 1895, this Victorian home is rife with ghosts from the past. Ghostly parties at 2:00 a.m., spirits calling family members and houseguests by name, dolls that talk even after the batteries have been removed...The Back family has been subjected to impossibly bright lights, loud crashing noises, weird shrieks even ominous odors such as decaying matter.
 Although each had a different approach to how they entered a room the story was exciting to read knowing you have four ghost's in you're house and having children even though two of the ghost themselves were children. A little girl and little boy along with mrs. back's two children froston and de'veroux  the children never harmed one another but sometimes the ghost children would scare the others, but, who wouldn't scare someone if you were a ghost........right? If I were a ghost I would scare people all the time! 
Each ghost in the McBride House has a personality of its own, including one entity whose antics are downright terrifying. But instead of fleeing, the Back family remained and gradually got to know their "spirited" residents. The back family has never been harmed by their ghosts just scared from time to time.I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys ghost stories! This family goes threw years of having their ghosts with them and never had an serious problems all n all it was a good book that I enjoyed very much
