"Merchandise"

When we have nothing left to give
There will be no reason for us to live
But when we have nothing left to lose
You will have nothing left to use

We owe you nothing you have no control

Merchandise keeps us in line
Common sense says it's by design
What could a businessman ever want more
than to have us sucking in his store

You are not what you own.
We owe you nothing.
You are not what you own.

clouds and the moon and what not...

"....getting hurt is never good. i think each heartbreak changes a person a little, like a big storm changes a shoreline. eventually all the sensitive parts aren't exposed anymore and the storms can come and go without causing any damage.

I try to take time to appreciate the things around me also. Sometimes all the lights from downtown charlotte make the clouds light up a little from below and it looks amazing against the moon. Things like that make me thank God i'm alive.=) ...."

i sent this in a email today, and i meant it.



PS.

Arghh! my eyes are so itchy!
Why are they fine all day and itchy right now?
Ack in the pain, i want my mommy!
AArrrrrghh! >.

Double Bass Runs Are Poop.
Current mood: grouty

ok, You're watching a rock band and enjoying it.

Suddenly, in the middle of a song, the drummer tenses up his legs and starts "running" with his ankles on his double bass drum.

This is the result:


The song you were enjoying with Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Bu-Buh. under it. =/

It's like a noisey engine running while a part of the song is played.
I Hate it. i hate it, but I DO IT in the first song of the set! >.<

It was the guitarist's idea. i thought of it as a challenge, it took forever to master. Now i can do it easily. Today i was watching a rehearsal i recorded and that part totally deflates the song. >:(

So Screw it, bye-bye double bass breakdown, I'm reclaiming my life!!!

Why do i have to damage myself to feel "good" ?
Current mood: Boring

Today work was peaceful and 8 hours passed like a fluorescent air-conditioned humming dream. The coffee was great.

Tonight I stopped by fuel pizza to get a Veggie on Whole Wheat and went to the practice space to to unpack and set up my drums from the last show,

I hurt my hand at the show and bled a little (i thought) on my snare during the set. Tonight I got a good look at the carnage. It was disgusting. There was little specks of blood of the floor tom and hi-hat, but the snare and my swimtrunks were totally covered, It looked like a murder =(.

The whole thing kinda bummed me out...

~*start blues jams*
What is wrong with me?
Why do i play this way?
Why do i have to damage myself to feel "good" ?
How much longer will i be able to do this to myself?
~*end blues jams*

Terrible logic: People are social animals like Dogs or Cats. they need to be arround people to be comfortable. My Herd/pack/family is the band. While i'm with the band i'm sweating through my clothes and destroying my hands. Thus my "comfort" is Suffering. Right? God I hope not. 0_o'

Tomorrow I shall hit the sporting goods store and buy a new pair of (black!) trunks for future practice/shows.

You guys sound like Dillinger Escape Plan... o_0?
Current mood: particle board

Yesterday my band played Liquid Recordz (lol @ plural "z" ) in huntersville.
my friend billy showed up, it was great to see him there.

my guitarist/singers vocals desinagrated during the first song. a kid from the crowd grabbed the mic and screamed for the rest of the show. Surpisingly it went great! we were totally lucky.

Halfway thru the set i cut my left index finger knuckle open on the hi-hats and bled all over the place. i finished the set with style like the trooper/sadist i am.
one guy said we sounded like Dillenger, he had to be totally drunk.
the owner paid us 25 bucks for playing, ( better than nothing! ^_^ ) then billy and i hit Denny's
After the show the guitarist and i decided we need a dedicated singer guy/girl.

Today i slept late, woke up a little sore, and got lunch/diner at Mama Lena's. <3
