that's funny because last nihgt at a football game I had someone tell me that I was no longer as nice as I used to be. they were like, "I remember when you were so nice to everyone. Now you're really mean." it was... kind of saddening.

Nick Cave is Michael Hutchence's daughter's god father. biggrin

kate:
are you friends?

no we're FAMILY!

about your writing- dont worry about showing people your words.
when i first started out in bands all dem years ago, i always got SO terrified of showing band members my lyrics/songs ect....but after awhile it gets easier and it becomes more about just getting a song 'done'.

dunno if that made sense but there you go.
