i havnt written in here for a long time.i wonder how many people have used that as thier first sentence.
i usually go on here and bitch or complain.so im gonna keep that shit going
my life is going great.job and all.just having fun.
but i get so stressed out about my musical group of skilled musicians.we recorded two songs.for free.not the best quality but sweet for the price.free.the last day i went to record..i felt liek shit. didnt even want to wake up.but i had to.didnt want to let my "bandmates" down.so i recorded. wasnt too stoked on the outcome. but everyone though it was just fine.fine....not perfect.fine.now this si the first band ive really ever been in.and i love it.i just thought that we should put everything we could into it.i mean i tried my hardest...but some days you just cant get into the groove of it all.after i listened to one of the mixed recordings...i didnt like my parts at all.
so i decided to try and fix them all.what i didnt expect was shit from my"bandmates" about how it wont be done by the "deadline" if i try and make my parts sound better...because it sounds "fine" to them.i think thats just some bullshit.and i honestly thought i was gonna get praised for actually caring so much. because i could easily just keep it the way it is.but why? why would i just let it go when i know that i can sound better? "well because i want the songs done" im sorry for getting in your way guys.i wont ever do it again.
in reality i dont enjoy picking fights. but its in my nature to defend myself and speak any words that my mind tends to think up.i make it clear in the end that theres no harsh feelings toward the other fingers violently trying to get the last word in but i dont think they keep that in mind.because i couldnt get a chance to really say what i wanted since i had to keep my hands up during the fight and defend myself.so atleast let me say this.
i thought the music was most important? so if it is...shouldnt i try and keep everything up to the expectations ive set myself? or should i let my urges to have people listen to my music compromise the music itself? because im really torn on whhat is right or wrong.
sure we gotta get out there and get our name and blah blah....but weve only been a band for a short time.. id ont like rushing.id rather develop a sound that ive been wanting since the day i started writing music before i have shirts for sale and a demo. i mean..its rad to have those. but music is way more important than anything else. i hate to be a pussy and rub my non existant balls all over this post but i really couldnt get any stable points accross because i was getting punched in the back of the head the whole time.
i just hope you understand a bit better...
in other news. we have a show this saturday at the alley.come out.and shit.
peace
