Funny story about a fiend.
First off, does anybody know a site where you can post unlimited MP3's for free? I want to post all the stuff I have ever made, from Takecalifornia, to Tubbychubcakes, to my 100 billion solo attempts. And eventually, if we ever get done with it, the weird cd John and I are making and the re-recorded Takecalifornia. Brad and I dont feel that we took the time to do the songs properly last time since it was recorded in like just a few days.
Now a funny story. I am going to badmouth someone, so be prepared. I went to McDonalds to eat before a gig the other night, and who should walk in but Laura McGinley. Well here's the thing. When I was in 8th and 9th grade I used to be really good friends with her. In fact I used to go over to her house to hang out on a regular basis and hang out at youth group. Then when I got to be a sophmore, we didn't see each other that much. So I haven't talked to her since then. Sean walked by her and she goes "F*** that christian rock sh!" So here's the big question: What did I do to her between 9th grade and now, that makes her suddenly hate all 4 of us? She used to know Sean and Matt too, in fact she sang with us at church before. Apparently we must have done something terrible to scar her for life. Yeah whatever, go carve a pentagram on yourself. So I wanted to start off the set by dedicating Amnesia to her and adding some swear words, but I did not. Instead, Sean made some funny comments before Sammich about people who are brainwashed and hate the world, but I forget exactly what she said. So now, she has made my squirrel list. If you must be destroyed, you are on the squirrel list. #1 is Joel Schumacher for his disgraceful direction of Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. Those movies must burn! You have disgraced Batman! #2 is Laura, because her behavior at the emerson was squirrel-like in nature. Let me think of a #3: Nickelback and Hinder.
Oh yes. That reminds me. I have been informed by Sean that Dianna is now listening to Hinder. Egad! This is terrible. What am I to do? I thought I had set her straight on good music. I took her to a Foo Fighters concert, and look what happenned! Hinder, the band with the 2nd worst lyrics in the world. #1 would be Nickelback who talks about foreplay with preschoolers. Real smooth Chad Kroeger, molesting babies again. Unfortunately, Hinder makes great catchy music. If the guy would sing about something besides weed and cheating then it'd be some decent music! Ok, so I told you the worst lyrics in the world. Now I will tell you the greatest lyrics in the world:
#1: Chevelle. Nobody can top Chevelle. They are so original with their lyrics, it's great! They sing about all kinds of stuff and it's also not political, because I dont like politics one bit.
#2: Radiohead also has great lyrics. Extremely original stuff!
See?! These good bands can find stuff to write about besides women. I used to do that. Like that Takecalifornia CD. But on the Project Hero cd, there is only like 1 reference to women, and the whole song isn't even about that. I'm just trying to branch out. Now that I'm a little more developed of a musician, I see influences in different places. Mostly I see it in movies or experiences like moving or college. Like the latest 3 PH songs that we're working on for our EP are about cool stuff. They are:
Spotless: A song I made after watching Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Echoes: This one is about people who try to differ you from reaching your huge goals and bring you to their sad little Earthly life by feeding you negative nonsense and slowly taking away your desire to do something great. Why do they do that? Well, because they don't want you to have something they can't have.
#3 yet untitled song: I wrote it about a person with a split personality, sort of. Everybody sort of has one, because everyone has this dark side that they don't want anyone else to see. The reason it is hidden from everyone is because if we could see everyone else's dark side, we wouldn't like anyone. But I think people have little battles with that side of them and try to keep it hidden.
Yeah, that's my attempt to be original. I like it so far. Maybe someday I will write a song about women again, but in the past I sometimes forced ideas like that out because I didn't know what else to write about. I don't have that problem anymore. Also, who is going to want to play a song about their girlfriend after they get dumped? not meEe. The only woman song i want to play after I get dumped is Manipulative Shards of Evil. mUAHaHAhahaA!!!!!
I just watched the movie Hi-Fidelity. It was pretty funny. John Cusack owns a record store with Jack Black, who has a band called Sonic Death Monkey. hahahaha. What a great band name! The main thing in the story is John Cusack rating his top 5 worst breakups ever and trying to figure out where he went wrong so that he could save himself from the same failure in the future, and I thought, holy frack! That's ME, except that I'm not a man whore. I also don't have 5 breakups that bother me.
