"A Smoking Good Time" 2004-05-17 - 3:32 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj today was a little weird fell asleep at 8:30 in the morning woke up at 3:30 in the afternoon just sat around all day until practice the band, by the way, is going extremely well it feels so "too good to be true" that I'm starting to seriously get nervous that something horrendously bad is going to happen like Jon's going to get hit by a car or something it just seems like things never go this well for me, and it's only a matter of time before it fucks up but that's coming dangerously close to angsty; so let's move on see, when I said "Jon didn't know how to play drums" the only real problem that caused was that he didn't really know how to organize his playing each time we would play a song he would play something different but he's starting to get a handle on things astoundingly quickly especially considering he leaves his drums at the practice room and only practices when we do but that's what I meant when I said he's a good musician even if he doesn't know the little technical shit and can't read drum tabs he knows how to play; and knows how to get organized when he isn't and now that he's getting his shit together, he's almost better at drums than Ruben is at bass I wish that were a joke or jab at Ruben, but it's really not anyway, tonight we went through a song riff by riff; and Jon wrote down what he plays which is what we should have done in the first place, and what we will do in the future and now we've got Failure 100% done and I have to say, it sounds awesome I'm really excited about things and if we can sit down and go through each song part by part like that; I think playing shows within a month is an attainable goal I just pray nothing happens to fuck it up everyone pray with me now let us pass around the collection plate alright, I'm stopping with the religious crap before I get sucked into a rant but I still think we should've called our band The First Church Of Gir anyway, the chest cold that I had for over a fucking week is finally starting to break yay although it did help me to realize that I finally became addicted to cigarettes damnit sometime last year I went two whole weeks without smoking and I didn't even notice until I found my smokes in my jacket and I was like: "oh yeah, I smoke" but then in the past few months I've started to smoke a lot more, almost to the point of being a chain smoker and I guess that got me hooked 'cause when I got sick I didn't want to smoke; because chest cold + smoking = pain but I found myself thinking about it a lot, and even having a few cigarettes despite the fact that it hurt a bit to do so so that's not good but my chest cold is finally going away; and I can smoke without pain now, and it feels great but I broke my fucking lighter, so now I need to go buy a new one damnit you'd think Zippos would be longer lasting or something bah Adios Amigos � � |
