Self-awareness can be a beautiful thing.
I, for one, completely understand that I am not perfect, and that in order for things to work in perfect harmony, sacrifices and compromises are an essential part of keeping everything together. Being in a band, I do this quite often, and I have been called a push-over multiple times for it. Thing is: I don't give a flying...

I bought the Metallica documentary for $5 today, just so I can laugh at it.
I look forward to blazing a few cones and laughing at James Hetfield for being an alcoholic, laughing at Lars Ulrich for being Lars Ulrich and for being the most overrated drummer in music, and laughing at Kirk Hammett for forgetting how to play guitar, all while they record one...

"You know what, guys? Why don't we just go in there and hammer it out, alright, instead of hammering on each other." - Kirk Hammett
That is but one nugget of wisdom and wonder. The true comedy comes from 40-something rockstar millionaires who never have had to do a true day's work in their lives whinging like they're 4 year olds.
I'll see if I can rustle up some funds and get your genitals switched so I can get "done"
How is all the Constance gear going? Nicely done recordings yet?

After four weeks of hell, in which I wasn't sure if I was going to have to move (again, only three short months after I'd last done so), it appears my communal living horror story has finally ended. And yes, the ending was a happy one. Thank fuck for that.

AAARRGH!!!! 
What a fucking headache! The possibility that you could be homeless shortly is so stressful. Happened to me a few months ago when I got back from o/s. Taking 2wks off work when you don't get holiday pay + having no savings = having no money to pay the 2wks worth of bills that have piled up back here in Australia. Luckily I have good mates who lent me enough cash to put me back in the clear.
Hope everything else has been going well for you...

thanx for the listen brother. All the right people keep telling me I need to make another "forgiving" record. I have been thinking about it. life is just making the ability to do another TOSS record difficult. Anyway, thanks for the kind words. And let me just say that Australians are the greatest people on earth.

When I get a hostile phone call from an ex on speakerphone from a party where her and my friends are, and she baselessly accuses me of cheating on her, and claims to have 'forgotten' the threat she made to kick the shit out of me if she ever saw me again after failing to deliver on said threat...

Hmmm, sounds like my job. I help people, for free. So DON'T come in without an appointment, bitch that you've had to wait for so long, insult my language skills and then complain to my boss. If you want my help, shut the fuck up and let me help you, you ingrates!

Yeah yeah, so I didn't listen to every Slayer album on the 6th. I still got through nine albums, so ner.
Tsunami meeting on Wednesday was awesome - I pretty much got a standing ovation when I arrived thanks to the Scott Stapp review, and one of the newer staffers complimented my writing. She was cute, too... so yes, meeting rocked, and I got myself...

I could be completely wrong here but have you travelled down to Sydney recently to play any gigs?
Like as recent as the long weekend that just passed?

I work in a live music/bands venue and we had a band this weekend with all aussie guys except for one guitarist that was an american kid with the same hair and skin tone as you.
Oooh creepy...
Maybe you have an evil twin?

International Listen to Slayer Day is upon us!
I'll be updating here every now and then to keep my playlist updated. What I'm doing is listening to everything from Show No Mercy up to Decade of Aggression, leaving off that awkward 90's period (shudder), and then getting back into it with God Hates Us All.
I'll bold the ones I've listened to so far.

Sitting in front of the computer, old bleach-stained Black Flag shirt on, listening to Lifetime - I feel like I just fell in a time warp. Either that or I'm playing the role of myself five years ago, to cameras that I can't see, for a movie I never agreed to be in. Freaky

Yeah, I guess I can't defend myself regarding TOOL and their wacky time sigs.
But I still hate Dream Theater--especially the vocals.

Ah, it doesn't take much writing skill to make people hungry, just name some good food. 
Speaking of writing skill, I think I'm going to turn back to fiction, my first love. I don't think modeling is for me.

Thank you for your comment on my set!
We could use a passive member
Being in a band is hard shit, especially since you've got two egos flying around. I usually just get into arguments about not wanting to be doing mediocre shit so it generally could be seen that I'm a pretentious fuck.
Fair enough; I'm not doing mediocre shit, though.
Stick with it; it'll get sorted or it won't and you'll go off and start something else. Just be careful who you're getting into bed with the next time
