It's really not bad, and I've been too busy to play anyway, but I can't stop thinking of Tony Iommi.
play it. bleed everywhere. people take note of your awesomeness. Profit.

i went to my friends house and picked up his ESP. I started playing it and I was like "Joe, what the fuck is on your pickup rings?" and he was like "Oh yeah I bleed on my guitar pretty frequently and I don't clean it"

I finish shows with blood on my bass and no idea where it came from pretty often.

My eyes water when I pee sometimes. I don't think it's any weird fetish or childhood trauma-related thing though.
And hopefully IT'S NOT A TUMAH

i can put myself in a gently halucinating state pretty much at will. not like, Thanking Fairies For Getting Such Wonderful Sugar Water For Me levels of hallucinating, but make everything go all wobbly and wiggly. pretty sure it's a nice little byproduct of THOROUGHLY enjoying huge amounts of acid and shrooms as a youngin'.
makes boring waits go quicker and bettah some times.

I put super light gauge strings (.09-.42) on my guitar yesterday and I think I like it. I've ALWAYS played with .10's out of habit, but look out! I'm shaking things up baby!

Yeah, I just found that things were sounding pretty muddy since I play a lot of distorted barre chords. I dunno if this was the best way to help, and maybe it's just the fact that they're new strings that make them sound clearer, but whatevah I do what I want.
