... he bought a new car, several more guitars and basses, and (from what I've been told) a few hundred pairs of shoes...

Your guitarist is Imelda Marcos?

[sonidero]

As fucked up as all that is it all seems so familiar... Same thing / things happen to my friends... Maybe it's just mid-30's... That's why everybody watched Thirtysomthing on TV when we were young...

Sucks to hear but it sounds like your ok...

[nad]

Holy shit just two days ago I thought "maybe I should watch that one thirtysomething show that was on years back." I did finally watch The Big Chill last year and it spoke volumes to me. As much as I loved the band I honestly had a few big issues with it, so the fact that it crumbled is not the end of the world for me. I'll miss the Drummer, as a musician and a friend, but fuck all that other noise. Guitarist has never really been the most healthy friendship I've had over the years... we've had more than one falling out in the past. I likely share some of the blame with that, but who really knows.

I told my mom I needed to turn the last 3 months into a book, and she suggested "add a 50 shades of grey element to it!"

haha, I'm not sure her literary snobbery could suggest that I sell out in such fashion.... but then again she'd be happy if I were financially comfortable I suppose!

I hear ya
'twas my first suggestion since I have first hand experience with it....


Stopped by late one night for an unplanned visit to my parents (retired) where my father seemed to run to the door (he doesn't walk fast, let alone run)

Me: "What's up pop"

Him: "I'm.... I'm good. *awkwardly looked around*.... "There's uhhh.... a bowl of strawberries on the table that your mother left out"

Me: "Uhh... OK..... you know I hate strawberries"

Him: "Oh, well your mother is in bed, trying to sleep" *another look around*..... "There's also a bowl of whipped cream" (with a half-evil smile)

Me: "What's it for?"

Him: (with a smile)......

"It's for my balls"

So, wait, doom band, you say oh mr. nad?

Yesssssssssss. In many ways my parents have a mess of a marriage but I'm pretty proud of them that they still get down in their 60s. I never walked in on Strawberry Night though, so I'm kept a safe distance away from such shenanigans.

Yah, just myself and a drummer so far. We might keep it that way, but might add something odd (theremin? bari sax? butt trumpet???). I don't think there is room for guitar, I tend to play riff-like and chord the fuck out of things in these types of arrangements.

It's a lot like listening to Sabbath with your death metal friends on the way to seeing Zappa Plays Zappa. I mean not that we're that good of course, but those seem to be the big influences so far. He's off on a bit of a tour for a few weeks soon, but after that I hope we get back to serious business quickly. He's a fucking incredible drummer and after our first jam I experienced insomnia and an erection lasting longer than 4 hours!

I'd love to find one, I've always wanted to make heavy music with something that isn't normally associated with metal.

I wrote this poop but there aren't any other instruments yet: http://boogeresque.com/Ancient_Nectaris.mp3

Mistakes and crap aside, it does serve as a nice demo of my new bass and Tentacle Love Super Fuzz!

This just might be the greatest gif on the internet.

When I saw them the bassist broke a string on the fist song and everyone had to wait till he found another.. and Mark Arm was singing

[nad]

Thanx dudes!

Listening to Bloodloss for the first time right now... diggin' it. EDIT: Yarp, added them to my list of albums to buy halfway through that song. Very fucking awesome.

I have a pretty hideous crush on Yakuza, I think that's where my heavysaxlove stems from:
