My birthday... what a mixed bag that was.

I've had this planned for a while now... not as in like a super sweet 16, just a simple get-together; meet at the Fox in Risca at 7pm, then when Scott finishes work and gets there by 9pm we all go into town (Newport).

I'll cut a long story short... ten people turned up (one of which...

I often feel like I'm old before my time... there's so many things about current culture that I just don't understand. For the sake of this blog, I'll refer to my younger self as "a child", even though many older members would disagree on account of the fact I'm a week shy of my 20th birthday.

-Skinny jeans.
I don't mean the ones that are...

That's it! Indie is not a subculture, it is not a true 'genre' as far as I'm concerned, and it definitely is not a fashion statement. Indie = independent. Do it yourself. The most overproduced crap in the world can be "indie" by true definition - it is a term reflective more of the band's position in the industry than it is to do with the music the band plays.

you're good. real good.
it's like you just walked into my brain and observed what i HATE and put it all in a blog. well done.

Chris! Sorry I didn't get back to you the other day, I ran out of credit and then my phone died. Did you have fun at the show? Trash Talk/Gallows were crazy, I had a good time. I hope all is well! xoxo
clio:
Yeah, TJ's is still as how I remembered it to be, pretty rough. They didn't even have wine, what the fuck? A fight broke out during TT's set which confirmed what we talked about earlier, haha. I don't know if it had to do with touching another man's food, though.

Holy shit. I am well and truly fucked.

I don't know whether to cry or punch something.

What's wrong?

Sounds bad. My advice: cry rather than punching something. It feels better but is harder to do.

My face is finished.
My body's gone.
And I can't help but think standing up here in all this applause and gazing down at all the young and the beautiful, with their questioning eyes, that I must above all things love myself.
That I must above all things love myself.
That I must above all things love myself.

I saw a girl in the crowd,...

Wow, the universe is really full of negative energy at the moment... you know, if I believed in all that.

-Flatmate drunk, depressed, threatening suicide. Although there's currently a carrier bag next to me containing every knife we own, we still live on the 5th floor. If she really wanted to...
-Friends of mine nearly carjacked this evening. Police mostly unreceptive.
-New friend of mine...

In order to sort my body clock out, I stayed up all night last night so that I'll go to bed at a reasonable time tonight and be fine by tomorrow morning. Possibly due to this, my judgement (and talents) may be a bit askew, and so I've recorded this. This might be a stupid idea.

Since I last posted (aside from the frustrated post about mixing that session), very little has happened. I've been spending my time going to lectures, practicing for studio operational tests and revising for my Specialist Audio Applications (read: looking at how mp3 encoders and data transfer works right down to the 1s and 0s). It's been occasionally punctuated by nights out with friends and such,...

I'm currently trying to mix the session of the girl I recorded the other night. She's a great singer, but a crap guitarist. She turned up without a tuner, and her guitar was crap. It shows. She also speeds up and slows down all over the place - granted she wanted to record 'as live', and a click track was out of the question. Also,...
