It's been soooooooooooooooo long.
Let me bring you up to date: I did homework, slept, ate, did homework, didn't sleep, didn't eat, did homework for 22 hours, slept 2 hours, did homework for 20 hours then went to bed. Now I'm here, delaying my studying for finals because I'm stupid.
I'm recording on Monday with 15 Minute Parking, my main band. We're doing a demo, so that's going to be lots of fun. I rented a drumkit from Long & McQuade where one of my high school buddies works and I was playing around with it and tuning it tonight. It's a nice, loud DW kit - so loud that it shook loose some of the lighting connections in my studio, so now I have to open up the ceiling and fix the lights. Those are some nice drums.
I've drawn my attention away from the Yamaha Oak Customs and I'm now looking at the Pearl Reference series drums. Each drum is made with different woods in order to get the best possible sound out of each individual drum. I can't wait to try a set out.
Anyway, I haven't done news for a while, so here we go:
- Starting off sad, these two brothers died within 15 minutes of each other in 2 separate car accidents. Poor dad lost both of his sons in one night. One of the accidents may have been caused by the dad talking to the son on a cell phone, but they aren't certain.
- These fucking idiots are putting small explosives in pens and leaving them on the ground. The pens explode when you take off the cap. Jerks. Grow the fuck up!
- This stupid chick wanted to steal "cocaine" that she saw in someone's house, so she hired a "hit man" to kill the four men living in the house and steal the "cocaine". When the plan was executed, the "cocaine" turned out to be a block of white cheese and the "hit man" an under cover cop. You've just been Punk'd!
- Ah, the old-fashioned Turkish wife swap. "I've run off with your wife, but you can have mine." Classic.
