Bullshit Revelations

So my band played at Battle of the Bands yesterday. We placed third, which I am not at all upset with. In fact, I'm quite pleased.

However, I am really upset with my friends. A decent amount of my friends had nothing going on yesterday, yet didn't come out. I don't think they realize how important music is to me. I'm not at all upset with people who had stuff going on and couldn't make it. In fact some of my friends that couldn't make it texted me to let me know they couldn't make it, and wished me good luck. That meant just as much as being there. I love those people for that.

But seriously, my dad has a fucking broken leg and he drove himself out, stood in the back with his crutches, and watched me play. Yet my friends who didn't have to work and weren't doing anything didn't come. What the fuck guys.

To the people who came out, or who couldn't come out but at least let me know they tried their hardest to come out, thank you so much. And to my friends who would have come out if they didn't have anything (work, other shows, etc) going on, thank you just as much. I love you guys. You are my truest friends, and you know me well enough to know what I dream for. You are the best, and I love each and every one of you.

To the rest of you, who maybe missed our set to go to a party, well let's just say I'm going to re-assess our friendship.

I'm really excited to get a new guitarist in! haha And we have two shows coming up in the next 20 days that I'm really excited for. Plus we're going to go and get a song recorded for the Roots compliation CD very soon. Fuck yeah!

This weekend is going to kick some butt!

LOL

I'm really excited for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Hopefully Sunday as well, so long as I don't have to work. Please, if you read this, come out to Battle of the Bands on Saturday. It would mean the world to me.

I love everything!

Fuck tha Po-lice!

I got pulled over tonight, and got a ticket. Ran a red light, haha. Whoops, my bad.

I feel really optimistic about my band right now. I think 2009 is going to be a good year for us. I cannot wait until Battle of the Bands. If you're reading this, please head over to our myspace (http://myspace.com/goodweatherforairstrikesband) and check out what you can do to help us promote. We're giving away two tickets for our show on December 30th in Howell with Chris Bathgate to the best promoter!

I'm loving everything about my life right now.

Go see my brother in "A Christmas Carol" this weekend! He rules.

Band stuff

So David, my band's lead guitarist, decided to leave Good Weather for Airstrikes, the band I'm in. It left on good terms, so there's no hard feelings.

If you know any really good guitarists, let me know!

Thanksgiving week was really great. A ton of family was over, which was awesome. I also saw my friends a lot, which I really enjoyed.

Kyle, Megan, and I had a ballin birthday party on Friday, which was a lot of fun and a lot of bad at the same time. My drunken mistake has been resolved with others, but not not myself.

I've liked this girl for years, literally. And I feel like I may have messed things up. I'm really upset with myself because of it.

This blog was supposed to be a place for me to put my thoughts and feelings into words. Yet I find myself holding back.
