Hmmm, now that isn't true! Most yes, but the select few are wondrous!

[QUOTE=deathscreamingsheep]Trekking in Peru for a month.[/QUOTE]that sounds so awesome.

It's not just hot here, it's extremely f[size="2"]u[/size]cking humid. It averages 90's here + bad bad humidity.

I live in Florida so you may all stop whining


now

i live in ohio

there are a lot more reasons to whine

I love Storm Thorgerson. I love bands that love Storm Thorgerson.

Hm. The forums wouldn't load for me for a few weeks. That was weird...

[QUOTE=slack]that sounds so awesome.[/QUOTE]

I'm hoping it will. I've never been out of Europe before so it's gonna be pretty different to anything I've done before.

Hell, I am so envious of you - my summer so far has been mostly cricket and tennis - I'm going to have arms the size of treetrunks if I keep this shizz up until September.

EDIT: 3,000th reply represent! :D

That's my other thing to do this summer. Get hench. I'm naturally skinny but I've always kept myself fit so I'm going to work on broadening out more.

What's "hench"?

Jason, help a brotha out.

Gimme 24, as I'm now going to bed, but I'll get to it, I swear. :)

[QUOTE=EmergencyRoom]What's "hench"?[/QUOTE]

Haha woops. I should really stop letting london slang into my posts. It just means build myself up a bit. After lots of long distance training with little other exercise recently my arms and legs have come to resemble twigs. Tough sinewy twigs, but still- pretty over thin.

I've been in contact with a pianist for the past few weeks and months. She's based in the States, somewhere that I forget the name of, and I am in the UK.

We've decided to make a musical partnership with another of my friends over here in the UK. She is going to be writing the piano music, sending me a score and some general ideas that she has. I shall then listen to it, write some lyrics and these will bounce backwards and forwards until we're both happy with them.

I shall then use my recording facilities (Home recording studio, or a studio that I'm friends with the head technician) to record my friend's, from the UK, voice along with the track. We may also lay down some string/woodwind/brass/perc parts with it, obviously that will be done in conjunction with the pianist in the States. Those other parts will most likely be MIDI (Kontakt Colloseum), though if we can get live players we definately shall.

I hope that made sense, and as you can probably guess I'm rather excited!

I'll definately be sharing our music with you, once it gets going.

Hope you're all well and writing.

Timmy

she must be really good.

ninja edit: i think i've fallen in love with bruce springsteen.

Good, Bruce Springsteen is legendary.

yeah, i just picked up [i]nebraska[/i] and [i]born to run[/i]. really great stuff. i wish i could write that good.

psssh..


eit : i just relized i write most my matieral when i'm runk

I've never written drunk, usually when I'm depressed (properly depressed, not what everyone seems to think is depressed now a days. I was diagnosed with depression by a doctor after my dad died.).

Sometimes I write when I'm really happy, they're usually the pieces with no point but to create an image.

Hope you're all well

Timmy

Hm. My mood doesn't really affect my writing much anymore, at least I don't think so. I'm not sure how productive I'd be drunk. I just focus on getting as much material out as possible, however stupid it sounds. And I've been getting into alot of folk singer-songwriter type of stuff lately; it's really inspiring stuff to read.

Anybody else like Denis Johnson's work? God I love this man's writing style.

So anyway, new in the world of me- my band has a new singer and he is in all honesty one of the best singers I have ever had the privelage to meet. I also leave for Peru in two days, but when I get back I'm gonna have to get some recordings of our songs with his voice.

Have you got "devils and dust"? If you like bob dylan as well as springsteen then i recommend it. Very dylanesque, even down to the way springsteen sings. Not his usual style but great all the same.

Yeah, I'm listening to [i]Reno[/i] right now, in fact. Love this song.

I hate you, drumass04.

in a good way =\

Haha!! Is it possible to hate in a good way?

:p

Timmy

uhhhhhh

it is now

I'm bored, and this book rules, so here's the first paragraph of [i]Already Dead[/i] by Denis Johnson.

[i]August 7, 1990

Van Ness felt a gladness and wonder as he drove past the small isolated towns along U.S. 101 in Northern California, a certain interest, a yearning, because he sensed they were places a person could disappear into. They felt like little naps you might never wake up from--you might throw a tire and hike to a gas station and stumble unexpectedly onto the rest of your life, the people who would finally mean something to you, a woman, an immortal friend, a saving fellowship in the religion of some obscure church. But such a thing as small as a detour into deep and permanent changes, at the time, anyway, that he was travelling down the coast fro Seattle into Mendocino County, wasn't even to be dreamt of in Van Ness's world.[/i]

Jason changed his name...that had me confused for a while!
