Velvet eyes in Mexico



People need to be happier. Being sad for no reason or a stupid reason is just silly. I don't understand how people whom I both love extremely and care for can continue being sad when they know they have someone who are more than willing to support and care for them.

People need to be more open. Bottling up your emotions about things is annoying, and will only end badly. I'm not saying that if you don't like someone, you go up to them and say "i don't like you", but you can just politely ignore them, ya know? And opening up to people is a good thing, most people want to help, and some might, just maybe, possibly, make you feel better, just because you know they care?

People need to be less selfish. I'm not saying be completely selfless, but some people who just do everything for personal gain, or even most things, are just, uh, dicks. There needs to be a balance. Especially in any sort of relationship, its a two way street.

I'm sorry, this is kinda my first little waaah, just pretty annoyed about a lot of things or people at the moment, and feel pretty lonely. Which I don't like, I want to be incredibly happy all the time.

Totally...



Yep, HSC is all done. And I'm pretty happy.

Recording an album was so much fun. Even if our recording methods were "abstract" (i.e. pretty average) and the whole album was pretty much written then and there and we didn't rehearse before recording, I think it turned out alright. I want to do it again. But this time have lyrics. And maybe bass guitar. And maybe use similar recording techniques to what happened the time before this, using a USB microphone and Garage Band. I might even attempt to write some shitty lyrics, which could be majorly embarrassing, but it'll be fun. And I want to do it pretty soon. Here's a link to the album, unless you've already seen it on table nine.



I saw It Might Get Loud recently. I loved it. Not only because it had my ultimate dream man in it, but cause it showed three views on guitars and music. However annoying The Edge can be at times, I have a lot more respect for him after watching that movie. His use of effects is amazing, the whole riff to Elevation is just two strums. Pretty rad. Jimmy Page was just his usual asian-looking, old man, rad guy, and I found it pretty cool to know how he went from a session musician to working with The Yardbirds and then onto Led Zeppelin. Jack White was just awesome. His first guitar was so cool, as is his Airline.

Right now, I'm pretty bored, waiting patiently and looking forward to the weekend. But I'm happy. Which is always good.



Guitar Wolf are amazingly mega-rad. I love Japan.

Firstly...

I got really bored and decided to make a blog. I'm pretty shitty with layouts, so just excuse all of it. Title comes for a pretty sweet Liars song off Drum's Not Dead. I've been listening to a couple of good bootlegs recently,which I got off Sam's Crap, which is in my blog list.

Black Sabbath - Live in Asbury Park 1975
The White Stripes - Live in Boston 2003
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Live in San Diego 1969

Along with that I've got a couple of pretty good Battles Eps. And from that I've been wanting to see them live. Bit pissed off that I missed them when they played at the Opera House, but I'm more annoyed at missing Eagles Of Death Metal. I missed Jesse Hughes and Joey Castillo, who is probably my favourite drummer around today.



So good.

I've broken two drumsticks within a week. It's annoying cause they were actually my two favourite pairs. I've decided that I need a better drum kit. Someone want to put in for a Led Zep Amber Vistalite Ludwig Kit?
