I really want a new layout...
But deffently something just as cute. I am not sure what it is about this one that I dont like, maybe the way the entires are laid out. Though I love all the font sizes and comment titles. So I dont want that to go away if i change the layout. I wish I knew more about live journal, I never had to deal with all this on Xanga. Some one come in and fix this up for me.
On to more pressing issues, I have had two offers to start up some musical collaborations, which is amazing cause I could use a project to throw myself into untill I find a job and get back on my feet. I am not sure what all I get to write or have a say in, but I deffiently have some ideas going for it.
I want a project with the band names "A Candlelight Vigil" & "Schoolyard Belles"
They both give off an indie vibe, the later lends a female touch, while the previous title could be just about anything with some deep meaning and rich storyline. Though I am not sure where they will go or what will become of them.
I am a big fan of "covers" and I am not sure why, cause its pretty much taking a previous song and doing it. I have always tried thinking about them in whole a new light. Since I do a lot of concept albums, I thought it be pretty cool to take a song of some one elses that would normally not fit a story, and put it on an album and have it magically work with the story line, that way the cover advances the story line and is used in a new way. Also if I am going to cover a song, I want to capture it in a new style and if its a hardcore song I want to make it acoustic, if its acoustic I might try and make it ska, that way its also dont with a new twist.
The covers I have in mind at the moment...
Anything off "Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer" done acoustic, but I fear the basslines. Tilly and the Wall's "Let It Rain" or "I Always Knew" - I can do "I Always Knew" on keyboard plus when the cover gets done, I know how to get a hold of Kianna to share it with her, with fingers crossed she dosnt hate it. I have done a really cool version of "Whispers Of A Long Goodnight" by The Lyndsay Diaries, with bass chords that sounds really nice, too bad I forgot how to play it that way. Then I want to pick an obscure band, sort of like Of Montreal's cover of "Tropical Iceland" by The Fiery Furnaces, but either do "I'm In No Mood" or do A Paper Chase song....which will be really scary to try and do, I am thinking that the trick of that is finding one thats less morbid than the rest.
I am in a mood to start up something thats for sure.
