The last two days have found my watching my Highlander DVD's I have wrapped up season 4 and started on season 5 and I'm about to try and finish it today. I have made plans to start a band with Brooke and we are going to try and organize ideas for it. We want to be a Rock/Fusion/Space Grass band. We want to play whatever we feel like playing as long as it kicks ass. I'm thinking of bringing a bold idea into the meeting with Brooke and she might even go with it, who knows. I can finally stop buying CD's for awhile. I nearly went broke but I'm glad I got the music that I wanted. The new Twilight Singers album titled Powder Burn is a good album, it's not like their second album Blackberry Belle but it's good none the less. Though I didn't think I really liked their third album either when it came out but the more i listened to it the more I thought it was almost as good as the second. Not much else really going on to be honest, I've decided to put on my old game face though for the ghost show. My old game face however was nothing of peace and olive branches. When I was in Lazarus IV I played for blood, pure and simple. I didn't play shows to become elevated on some level of blissful open mindedness. I played to embarress the other bands and I think aside from playing with The Mimsies I did that to perfection. I've decided to declare war. It's not one of hate, but it's one of respect. I don't get my fire burning for bands that I want to waste my time on embarressing, I do it for bands who I think havent had a tough show to play up against in awhile. People in this scene under estimate me, unlike my old scene where I was something to fear. People would hate it when Lazarus would open shows (which we LOVED doing) because it set the bar and pace and no one could keep up. Thats what I want again, I want people to fear following me at a show because they know they don't have the chops to compare. Bands and bass players alike would come up to me after shows saying they had not seen a bass player of that style or talent in a long time. I still have the fire and I still have the drive, I have many friends in this scene and I have many bands that I love and respect but right now the only way i see it, is there can be only one.
