ah shit. i thought that if i selected rich text i could keep what i typed.

short version, my huge stud of a music teacher got fired for not showing up the one day that the pricipal came in to evaluate us.  he didnt call in or get a substitute. this was usual behavior for nick rizzo.  if only the principal was there for the time(s) he told a ( Read more... )

i realized something this weekend that is somewhat sad. i realized the only thing that makes high school parties remotely bearable is the fact that you are drunk. im not saying ive never been to a fun one, but this weekend was definitely lacking. on friday and saturday i went to seth's house. everything was fine until curtis showed up. man that kid ( Read more... )

this was the worst weekend ever. the first show i went to was so lame. there were people there who didnt even own their first album. i was so XpissedX. i have been cutting myself while listening to atreyu since before any of you on the internet. i was at their first show XEVERX. everyone is so dumb and im so much better than all of them. i have all ( Read more... )

its raining and has been since last night. jack called me after school said, "ultimate frisbee, ANLC you in dogg?" of fucking course i was. we got there and it was still pouring and the field was muddier than a stripper on a friday night. most of the field was a huge puddle. so being the testosterone filled young men we are we strip down to our ( Read more... )

well this certainly has been a very bizzare break. reflecting upon it, i got a DUI, made a grip of cash with the band, lined up our next show (january 22nd mason jar be there or die), and had a christmas where even though i did not get any spectaculuar gifts was good anyway. oh yeah, and i put my dog to sleep. tear. so even though i have a pending ( Read more... )

oh man im tired. today we (the lights) got up early after a long typical night of partying and recorded the first 6 tracks on our album. why did we only do six tracks today you ask? because six tracks took 8 hours. we did it at alex and jared dikowski's studio at their house. it was a lot of fun, but it was hard work. we had a techincal difficulty ( Read more... )

last night was fantastic in the musical/business sense. the lights have already sold out, playing dinner parties for middle aged rich people and getting paid a lot. i totally understand the music business now. we got $180 from the guy who hired us to play. then a random guy inside hands me a $100 bill! and he handed kellen a $100 bill! we made $380 ( Read more... )
