"Whod've Thought New Jersey Could Be So Beautiful?" 2004-09-10 - 3:16 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj I saw Garden State with Robyn tonight [HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBYN!] wow... another beautiful, artsy movie not as much as Hero like I said, that movie was like watching a painting for two hours but Garden State was still very good the only thing is; movies like that are starting to piss me off just because that's never going to happen to me they kiss and the credits roll and I walk out of the theatre and just feel the hole in my chest get bigger; because I will never get a big dramatic, romantic happy ending but Garden State really moved me for some reason Robyn and I made the drive home in silence alone, together when I got home I tried to write a song about it I wanted it to be beautiful but as usual for me it turned out dark I haven't written lyrics yet but I did write a very good guitar part that I'm really proud of I'm not using it with The Remaining, though no matter how the situation ends up I know that The Remaining will not end up being my final band and for when I finally start my own band the way I want to I'll have at least one song ready but anyway I burned a bunch of copies of the demo today I'll decide whether or not I'm sending out the tape this weekend; and ship out whatever on monday, regardless but as for the demo: "demo" may be too strong a word it's just a few songs we recorded sloppily and quickly; in order to let club owners get an idea of how we sound and that's why I'm sending it to you guys as well so you can get an idea of how we sound it's not a 100% accurate representation of The Remaining there are screw-ups in the songs the quality is bad and my vocals aren't great so don't get your hopes too high anyway... I've got to get back to The Room Adios Amigos � � |
