So we're 4 days deep in the first White Problems tour...it's been awesome, up until now we were with an incredible band called Hawks(www.myspace.com/hawksisaband) from Atlanta. I had met the guitar player twice briefly over the years, but didn't really know him. Me and Micheal the singer have been emailing back and forth for like a year and a half ( Read more... )

i'm by in large a pretty crazy person...i like lots of people and people like me...I've been way stressed out over the last two weeks. a cute girl I work with who i genuinely like asked me after she bought me a gin an tonic if I was alright...i realized at that point that how much i genuinely care about her, and how much I really wanted to talk to ( Read more... )

Dinosaur Jr.-there is honestly no band that could ever sound like them and actually mean it. they were '80s hessians(see Deep wound) who started making real music that meant shit to them. The new record Farm is totally on par with anything of their real shit, like Bug, You're Living all Over Me, etc. There were a couple stinkers in there with ( Read more... )

These last couple days have been weird. I'm one of the main dudes in the kitchen at my work these days, and so I for the past couple weeks had a bit more stress on my plate...because summerfest makes us irradically busy...I've also ben stressed about band shit. played summerfest last night, played at garibaldi with john the savage and drugs ( Read more... )

I have the free access to one of the most pretty parks in milwaukee, and I only need to walk like 20 feet from my front steps. I pay significantly less than ( Read more... )

So...I made 90 percent more money than I expected to make tonight at cactus, because anthony gave his shift to bud and I took tony's spot and tjay was way generous and drunk. It was a weird night...it started out full of douche bags, but it ended up the douche bags were alright and a weird. fun dance party ensued. i spent several hours after close ( Read more... )

I got home from work at close to 11, and i felt terrible so I layed down, and than ended up falling asleep for about 2 and a half hours. Now it's 6 in the morning and I'm not really tired at all. this kinda sucks. Chris downloaded the new sonic youth record...as far as the first two songs go I'm pretty fucking into it. Its making me consider going ( Read more... )

In many many ways this whole week has realistically embodied a lot of my personality and how i do things and live my life. i kinda didn't really get perspective on it until i now came home from eating at bay view diner with mike skorcz and some girl, who's really cute that he grew up with. I really one hundred percent will not be able to explain ( Read more... )
