So tired. Nevertheless, having the time of my life.
My month old band Rock Republic (formally known as Primal Gray) performed for the very 1st time at DXO. What was thought to be a flop miraculously turned into one of my best experiences ever! Albeit having the place being inundated with clueless 15-17 year olds, We still won some fans whom surprisingly appreciated 80s rock as much as we do. Will show you guys pictures once I manage to procure them from our ex-drummer whom we fired the minute after.
Met some old friends and MY how they have grown.
Pantat (Nicholas) and Scott of Excalibur (formally known as Velvet Rose) possessed only half their height, weight and skill about 3 years ago! I still remember the days we used to crash at max's chunking away to cliche guitar Newbie tunes like "smells like teen spirit" and "Master of puppets". Pantat could barely keep a beat and Scott was obscenely out of time, tune and pitch! Now they're playing Megadeth like its Blink 182. How quickly time flies.
Got offers from organizers and sound guys to play in upcoming events at different venues but personally, the band will have to improve a great deal before we progress to bigger stages.
Met a chick who looked cute under the dim UV light. Spotted and couldn't help to notice how she was singing along to "love is only a feeling", but made me cringe in disgust as her INCH LONG LEG HAIRS were evidently exposed the moment she walked out and we exchanged numbers.
Turns out she's a doorknob - Everyones had a turn.
She's been with every member from every band that has ever played for the tremendously growing gig organization -DEAFCON. Coincidentally she's also a member "co-organizing" committee of DEAFCON. If I had the impunity to sum the reason for the girls being there in 2 words, it would be:
Paperwork and Pussy. They must believe hairy girls are hyper sexed.
Yealch. No thanks, I like chickens without the feathers.
I don't like the competitive atmosphere in local gigs sometimes. Whatever happened to just hanging out playing rock and roll and loving it? Society has brainwashed us.
We always feel the need to compete.
Take that away and we'll be the richest of all people.
Statement of the week?
You know your getting old, when you and your MUCH younger sister start knowing the same people and having the same friends.
*Cough Cough Ahhh chooo!*
