"Hot Fuss" 2004-06-16 - 3:00 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj some news, finally first, Andre 3000 was on the season finale of The Shield tonight extra cool points for him, as if he needs them also, I finally got The Killers' album yay it actually lives up to my expectations, which is surprising given just how much I was looking forward to that album I put a lot of pressure on it, and it delivered the only thing that kind of sucks is, my favorite song of theirs is this one track called "Indie Rock & Roll" when I first saw them live I seriously almost cried when they played it; and it was the main thing that made me want to go buy their album but in a cruel twist of fate, "Indie Rock & Roll" is only on the UK version of the album that sucks so bad if the rest of the album wasn't so damn good I would seriously be pissed it's almost worth ordering the UK version just for that song; but I'm too damn poor oh well and finally, the real news; we met a potential drummer tonight he's like, a friend of Gabby's roommate who just came from Mexico ...or something I don't know he says he'll play with us; but I've yet to meet a drummer who actually tells us they won't play with us we'll have to wait until we actually want to practice to see if he wasn't just being nice but I'm not sure if I want him to play with us if he was serious let's weigh the pros and cons: Pros: he's really good at the drums, and we'll have all our songs within a week Cons: he lives 10-20 minutes away from the practice room, in a direction that neither Ruben or I live in, and he doesn't have a car also, he doesn't really speak english Ruben says he understands more than he speaks; but that doesn't impress me much now, in my opinion, the cons outway the pros but Ruben seems to like him but, Ruben can talk to him the ride thing sucks but I'll pretty much make Ruben do that and according to the guy, he's going to be moving closer to the city in like, two weeks whatever plus, he's starting a job soon [arg] and he doesn't know what his schedule will be like I don't know that seems like quite a bit of complications when he's not quite our last resort yet but the biggest problem is my not being able to talk to him I mean, something like music, which I take very seriously; I want to be able to communicate what I want with my bandmates and having to talk through Ruben is going to be a bitch to be honest; if it were up to me I would just say 'fuck him' but Ruben seems to like him gah hopefully he won't call us back does that make me an asshole?
