older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj

I don't know what to say

nothing's going on in my life right now

deep or shallow

started working out again on a regular basis

learned About A Girl by Nirvana on guitar

still one of my absolute favorite songs to play

I play it any time I've got a spare couple of minutes

hell, I'll probably end up playing it when I finish writing this entry

I see the specialist tomorrow

wrote down a list of all my symptoms so I don't fuck up like last time and get a mis-diagnosis

hopefully that will lead to me continuing my life like normal

and that's about it

I keep meaning to write my own songs on guitar

and to be fair I did write one

but it doesn't have a title and I've already forgotten how to play it

but I just keep forgetting to

or I just learn someone else's songs instead

I've got quite a good number now

I can't wait to get a job

get some money, get ahold of some distortion pedals, a bigger amp maybe, and my ultimate goal: a PA System

and from there the sky's the limit

round up some other musicians, get some original stuff written, and I'm on my way

fast track to either super-stardom or cult hero-hood

the only problems are that I look like Kurt Cobain, play like J Mascis and sing like Jerry Cantrell

so now matter how good and/or original me/my band are, I'm likely to be labeled a rip-off

and the fact that most people consider grunge dead really hurts my chances

but oh well

despite my mild doubts Rock Stardom is the one thing I'm confident I can pull off

I may end up having to switch back to bass

simply because I'm better at it

but as long as I've got a band to back me up I wouldn't mind at all

I just got tired of hearing only the bass

and I like the ability to play without a band and not sound like shit

not to mention the fact that I like being able to play multiple instruments

I just have to get around to learning drums and I'll be set

but oh well

nobody reads this

(and yes, I know people actually do; even if there is only two, I just like to be needlessly dramatic)

so I'll wrap up my shallow drivel
