being a responsible musician, i showed up for the soundcheck on time... the soundguy however was nowhere near... not my problem, it's not my event, so we prepared ourselves for the gig the best way we could - at first we sat around, drinking energy drinks, smoking and listening to Eric Truffaz... later on we got high, watched the first band...
then there was a problem with projections (The Wall was on the programme), so we got told to have a jam... fricking high as a kite, i got on the stage and we had a two-guitar-one-drums half hour-long postrock/drone jam with heavily fluctuating dynamics
then we found out there's not gonna be The Wall projected... we were blessed with Live At Pompeii instead
so i watche live at Pompeii, still high and now absolutely psyched from the jam
then a bit of break when i got pretty much normal, only without any stagefright at all
and we hit the deck and it was probably the best show yet... 200 people, awesome sound, energy (even though the stage was tiny, so not much space to enjoy ourselves), every song was pretty much spot on... and we got told by many that we're getting better every time
than i had an awesome friendly talk with my ex and went home, shit was amazing

ALSO, Kate came home, and I surprised her with the car. I think that she is starting to see that I'm really trying to be an adult, and not a goofy kid like I've told her.
I've been having a hella good week.

This man has suddenly impacted the way that I write, so I'm going to take a shot at playing drums, guitar, and singing for a bit. I already mute the strings with a bandana half of the time that I play, so I'm just going to switch my technique to a one-handed thing, and try to make some basic beats to it.

I've known about him for a while, but for some reason it just dawned on me today that I might be able to do that, to a degree.

It makes me happy to be myself, give all I have and think up all the awesomeness I can possibly think up for people who actually care.
Which is the main reason I like ILF.
Merry christmas, all you great great beasts of the wild.

My girlfriend bought pre-mixed eggnog without realizing it. So she added some rum. I've had like 1/2 a cup and am getting tore up.
