Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto should've been the best show I've been to in a long time. Well, thanks a lot, fuckers. Streetlight is too big for their own good. I liked them better when you could go to a show and dance. Part of enjoying a ska band (I'm using this term very loosely, because I don't even really consider them a ska band) ( Read more... )

If any of you Michiganders are going to the Reel Big Fish show tomorrow, get there early. I'm playing an acoustic set outside in the parking lot or on the sidewalk or something at 5:00, aka a half hour before doors open. I'd appreciate it if there were some people I knew looking on ( Read more... )

I got home from tour late last night/early this morning. Instead of relating the whole story to this small livejournal audience, I'll just direct you to my myspace blog. There's four of them, read them in order, leave comments here or there, or whatever ( Read more... )

I know I don't post all that often anyways, but I'm hitting the road tomorrow morning and I probably won't be on the LJ for a couple weeks. I know I posted before about this thing possibly not working out, but it seems everyone is on good terms and shit is ready to take off. This is exciting and terrifying and relieving, all at the same time. I ( Read more... )

Saturday night was incredibly boring. That's never good for anybody. Here's why:

New Mixson It Up song?!Yeah, this profile has been touched in over a year. The last comment was from Lisa in May 2005. I put up a new song that's a mashup (you know, like those Linkin Park/Jay Z songs) and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't partially inspired by DJ ( Read more... )

I went to Hell, MI last night for the 666 party. Look it up on CNN or something. It was kinda lame but how else are you supposed to spend 6/6/06 ( Read more... )

I went to the doc-tor today to find out why the heck I can't talk. He took a look and told me that a.) I have bronchitis, and b.) because I sang with bronchitis, my vocal chords are inflamed. I didn't know exactly what it meant to be inflamed, so I looked it up on Thesaurus.com. Apparently my vocals chords are enraged and wrathful. I have to be ( Read more... )

This fucking sucks. I haven't been able to speak properly since my set on Saturday night. I could kinda communicate that night, but all day yesterday I could muster nothing but whispers. I thought things would sort themselves out when I went to sleep, but I woke up still mute. I'm not even sick like I was Saturday. Oh, by the way, I was REALLY ( Read more... )

Yesterday was nice. I got to talk to Boston from 21deadmonkeys.com and totally sort out the details for the High School Football Heroes show. It's four weeks away now, and I feel shitty for taking so long. I was worried I was going to let them down, but now I'm confident that the show is going to be awesome. Basically, I'm relieved. Also, my ( Read more... )

Matt: Never make another new friend. Every time you meet someone new, be a complete asshole to them. It will undoubtedly save you trouble later in life.
