no concerts soon or anytime in the future for me.

has anyone seen Wolf Eyes live? I could see them on Sunday, and I wouldn't be going alone, but I dunno if I can be bothered. Are they good live?

I didn't go but some of my friends did and I guess they had fun.

Explosions in the Sky were really great tonight. I know the Post-Rock purists will tell me that they suck or whatever, but they're fantastic at what they do and everything sounds so much better live.

bold see orange maybe

What's the name of that festival? Looks pretty hot.

Oh yeah I listened to a Sweedish band the other day. Suburban Kids with Biblical names, they're cool.

It's called Accelerator. It's a small two day festival in Stockholm, but they have a much sexier line-up than the big festivals. The ticket price has yet to be revealed though.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda;14566820]hey montana at the risk of sounding creepy how much do you make? because i know St. Pats is looking for people in the kitchen (where i work <.<)[/QUOTE]

I'm only making $8/hr but as far as mindless, crappy jobs go, it's not so bad.

I have a hospital bill from St. Pat's I stillh aven't paid off. Ugh

Amen to Canadian health care.

pikester I will be seeing you at Explosions In The Sky May 5th.

I got all depressed today because I was saying that I'm a lot of like Max Fischer from Rushmore, then I realized I'm just an amalgamation of 1990s pop-culture references and have no individual personality to speak of. I don't know anything about myself and therefore define my life by characters in films I see.

I wrote a blog about it. Then I went into my bathroom and shaved. I started into the mirror for a few minutes then my dad came home and interrupted my thinking.

This is either obvious or ridiculous, but I found it helpful to be okay without thinking. Accepting meditation and not viewing it as a negative void in my personality/thought. Instead, it's a refreshing revitalization of the mind. As I said, this may be either obvious or even ridiculous - but it helped me at one point in my life at least.

oh well nm then (kind of) st. pats pays $7.33 an hour + $.76 if you work after four + $1.06 if you work on weekend. so it ends up being about $9 bucks an hour on weekend and $8.06 on week days.

I do my best thinking without thinking.

Also: R. Crumb's moment of zen for today: Life is like a pineapple upside down cake; there is no upside, there is no downside but it tastes really good so eat you moron.

i think i might be the only one here who does not like Guided By Voices

i heard [I]Bee Thousand[/I]. also the ATHF movie is excellent

Living in negativity is fun

I like GBV, but their mid-career stuff is what does best for me. Like Everywhere with Hellicopters. The early lo-fi stuff is good, but they work well with a little bit better production.

Apparently this guy I'm friends with was saying to people that I'm lazy and I just bludge all the time. I was kind of angry at first, but then I realised who gives a ****.

GBV are awesome.

ttp://www.myspace.com/superiouridealhusbands

So I'm looking for Swell Maps on myspace and I find a page with two songs (top two) that I'm sure are not Swell Maps but I actually rather like them. Anybody know the origin?

and yeah i looked up superiouridealhusbands as the page is titled. I got nothing.

I went to see Hot Fuzz last night, it was awesome. Except the whole row behind me was taken up by high school-age azns who kept kicking my seat. I considered moving but I didn't get to the theater early so I could get a rough foot massage from the Viet Cong.

I was a volunteer today and helped pick up garbage along the riverbank. I also ate my first veggieburger ever and it was delicious.

i woke up at 1 and layed around all day

Jammed with some new friends in a garage/bedroom for two hours
Went to a music store with them for an hour
Hiked through the woods with them for two hours

This was a good day

I woke up 2, but that was eastern time, so I guess you win. I hate sleeping in saturdays only because I got so little sleep during the week. I don't think I got more than 4 hours of sleep any night this week, and I didn't have a reason for it except for the night I stayed up until 5:30 to write a paper. : /

I always figured veggieburgers would be gross, but they must be good or something. Beef in patty form is my favorite food.

Hiking is nice.

Does anyone here know anything about getting me an invite to indietorrents?

i've never even been inside indietorrents, and my knowledge of it predates oink... but srsly if you're not part of oink... oh mah gah *chris farley voice*
