Time to become what I want to be... FOR REAL!!!
I must warn the reader that before you read through this post, I am drunk. I must be tactful, cause it's early in the morn and I plan on pulling an all nighter, because I have to play drums at church at 9am ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I'm going to make this short and sweet. I'm working right now, and I've got this crazy ass meth-addict hippie (who Dan aptly named "the business hippie") reaking havoc on customers. It's crazy. But anyways, the gig at Zydeco went fine for anyone who cares, it was fun, but I've got some deep stuff on my mind. Someone that I care an extremem ( Read more... ) -
I've said it before: RUSH FUCKIN RULES!!!
If I've said it before, I'll say it again: If you want to meet cool ass middle aged people, listen to RUSH!!! This guy just came into Bean's soley because he was driving by and wanted to know who had the "Self Titled Era" first album sticker (circa 1974) on the back of their Red Blazer. Of course it was me. This guy is from New Jersey and is ( Read more... ) -
Havin a Nic Fit!!!
To anyone who might care, I'm playing drums with a group called the Soul Sandwich tomorrow night (Tuesday the 5th) at Zydeco. It's kind of like an open Jam Session, and I believe that Bert Trotman will be there as well. It should be fun, so come out and see it if you have nothing better to do ( Read more... ) -
Fuck It!!!! I'm done...
I, Richard Tyler Ritter, hereby do state the following. FUCK CIGARETTES!!! I'm done. Tomorrow I start the cold turkey process, which means I'm going to be pissed off and sick for the next (insert time period). I'm tired of feeling like a lazy jerk all of the time. No offense to people who smoke (I guarantee that I smoke twice as much on a ( Read more... ) -
Haymaker Electric and the Purple Grape Fest... forget what I just said!
Well kids, Uncle Ty's days as an electrician have come to an end. The journey has run its course, and it's time for me to move on to bigger and better things ( Read more... ) -
Dammit, I'm doing it again...
Allow me a moment to analyze a good piece of my summer this far: jack shit!!! All I've done is work like a Mexican with my dad and been tired as well as horribly ADD with just about all of my plans this summer. Haven't really practiced that much, almost pissed away piano lessons, forgetting stuff, smoking WAY too much, lying to my parents about ( Read more... ) -
hot diggity damn!!!
So Bonnaroo was interesting... The Mars Volta were sadly dissapointing, as was much of the music that I saw. Everything sounds so generic now. The few highlights before Sunday were the Allman Bros, Gov't Mule, and this guy that plays cool stuff (can't remember his name). I'm extremely tired and apathetic right now, so give me a fucking break ( Read more... ) -
Chillaxin with a Chai...
Damn this Chai Tea is good! I'm chillin here at Bean's right now, trying to process all of the nonsense that's going on right now. I say nonsense, but really, good things are happening. I'm going to be able to quit this electrician gig and start teaching drumline. The new guys working at Vestavia are going to hook me up with some teaching gigs ( Read more... )
