Here is my fucking deal.
I got evicted from that wearhouse I was living at and now I live in a real house in Allentown on 12th and Turner sts. I started my masters and certification in social studies education at kutztown university. Boutros is still my main man. He sleeps with me everynight at the new house which rules but also sucks because he gets the bed really dirty. I work a ton. I work counter, do deliveries and tons of other odd jobs for
Vegan Treats. I am also in my last days as a projectionist at Carmike because we are getting replaced by robots, for real. Robots are actually taking my job. Yo, man Go! is kinda on hiatus right now until we all figure our lives out a little more, which may never happen. My other band Ghaddar is playing our first show tomorrow w/ Sunday Morning Einsteins and Middle America. I'm almost 23 (next thrusday) and tomorrow I will play my first show in a band in which I actually play an instrument. Weird. Ghaddar is me on bass, Johnny Z on Guitar, Josh from total mess on other guitar, Brad TFK on drums and curtis on vocals. I love playing in this band. When I was bored at work a few weeks ago I started making this
webpage, hopefully one day I'll finish it. I still book shows in the small and struggling lehigh valley, get in touch for shows.
Other weird things:
-some of my friends are or in the process of getting married/having kids
-a lot of my old friends aren't punk at all anymore
-I still don't get why people who know better eat meat, or stop being vegan. Honestly, no matter how hard your life is or now matter how poor you are or no matter how apathetic you are there is no fucking excuse for eating meat or dairy. Seriously, I don't care how jaded you are about people, being vegan is such a fucking easy way to make a small but positive and definite change.
-I've started to realize that I need to stop looking to get "better", the "better" I've been looking for is just the way things used to be and I just need to keep moving on and making things better in the future by learning from experience and letting go of some unrealistic expectations I had for life.
Things I am into lately:
-recordings by:
blank stare, positive reinforment, M1, perceptionists, cardiac arrest, direct control, the dicks, i spy, plow united, chronic seizure, look back and laugh, mum, total mess, carpenter ant, asta kask, armalite, crucifucks, latterman and slingshot dakota
-hardcore shows
-lucha libre videos
-trying to relearn all the spanish I forgot
-marvel civil war, runaways, eternals, ultimate hulk Vs wolverine and ultimate xmen
-biographies on conjurers
-trying to beat (but never coming close to completing) street fighter and gauntlet on xbox live arcade (they made that shit way too hard)
-the extremely rare time to myself
this will hopefully not only be your yearly update, but I will probably forget about this. Hit me up if we have lost touch.
ps, kyle folsom, I have wresltemania DVD's that I burned for you about 6 months ago. I never sent them because I am a bad friend who lost your address and didn't email you to find them. Lets go to some chikara shit soon
