well i think the whole point of paying a manager is to help get you out there. so im like getting you the gigs and photoshoots but then youre getting like double the money youre paying me and then eventually youll fire my ass and youll be sucessful without me.
cmon, didnt you know that was how these things worked?
and you wont be my slave, ill get have a litttttle fun kicking you around :]
i am pretty much in control at one of my jobs at a pizza place, if that counts for anything. and i want to go into music management.. do i get the job?
No new hardware; I was using someone else's kit (ha-ha) for that show. Although, Butcher is going to hook me up with some cymbals. I'm still rocking my natural finish kit.
I think most people just do the "scene" thing for the aesthetics, especially the bands. Although I don't know why, have you seen 95% of the girls who go to those shows? I think music should come from a passion.
I have no idea why I'm volunteering at a hospital. I have a terrible phobia of IVs haha
I wanted to see 311 so badly a few weeks ago but I had other plans. That would be an amazing show to be drunk at haha life's just more fun when youre inebriated.
I have no idea why you would ever come to Downers Grove. It's a miserable town. My friends' band was playing in Barrington so I tagged along. I like to randomly travel 30 miles for something small, it's a change of scenery.
I really admire that you're accomplishing life long goals. Most people I know aren't that driven or have gotten side tracked.
And I think that if I don't help people I won't have fulfilled my life's purpose. I start more volunteer work in 3 weeks at a hospital. I'm in this program at my school in which i advise someone younger than me. I feel like such a hypocrite but I know right from wrong haha
You basically named all of the other bands I want to see! The world of music is so vast why just be into one thing? You'll miss out on so much. I really don't like anything with "core" in the name. I feel like theyre doing it for attention, not to actually play music.
My friends and I have some extensive plans for our activities at Lolla haha. Your other plans(which I do quite frequently and must say IS enjoyable) could still be achieved while listening to beautiful beautiful music.
I actually live 15 miles west of Chicago in a town called Downers Grove. Barrington is like 30ish miles north of me, I've been there for concerts.
I cant believe you actually want to be a rocket scientist! Thats so cool that you want to design military aircraft. And it does not sound remotely easy.
Helping people makes me happy so I'll probably go with speech therapy. I mean, if there is a need for it and it's something I'm interested in I'd be selfish to do something else.
I was totally down with the backstreet boys when I was a kid. I thought all other boy bands were nothing compared to their suave dancing and melodic serenades haha
I absolutely adore indie/folk, hence my interest in buying an autoharp. You should really go to Lollapalooza. For me it's a 40 minute train ride to see Wilco, Rage Against the Machine, Brand New, MGMT, and Spank Rock. I cannot tell you how excited I am =) who else would you be going to see? Radiohead alone would be worth the $80 ticket.
Aerospace engineering?! Thats amazing! What kind of career does that lead to? I'm looking to go to Augustana/Elmhurst for speech pathology and communicative disorders or say screw finding a real job and go to Columbia for fashion journalism and merchandising haha
And the Backstreet Boys, wow do they make my creative senses tingle haha and i think playing the accordion would be a marvelous idea maybe some synth and sitar too
I really listen to all types of music. From folk to hip hop. I don't pigeonhole myself into one genre. I'm going to Lollapalooza this weekend so I'm hoping to find something new. How about you?
Have fun in California! It's always been a dream of mine to drive to there and just kind of see what happens, have no plan. Anyways, what are you studying at Purdue?
I think the concept of your album is really cool. Most people or bands make the most ridiculous concept albums that make zero sense. It shows alot of respect for your father too
I've taken flute, cello, guitar, and singing lessons. All of which I quit. I've always been more into doing my own thing haha but I'm about to buy an autoharp, just for giggles.
And what would this hypothetical band be like?
When I mentioned what I thought your personal ad should say I was totally insinuating some type of paid-for-male-company =)
Oh, children and their defiance haha I hope it all works out for the best.
I am an absolute failure when it comes to most instruments but I've been singing for a long time and write a lot. I just can't make it into anything cohesive.
What was the concept of the album?
And I would love to see the end result of that personal ad haha I might also try something along the lines of "nice young man looking to please" =]
I'm sure they'll all turn out to be wonderful adults, thanks in large part to the time they spent with you this summer haha. I love kids but they don't like to see me as an authoritative figure haha
I think making music is a wonderful use of time. I wish I could do it better than I do. Still making any?
And I also think that it's lovely you're working towards treating a lady friend nicely, it's greatly appreciated even if we don't always show it.
it's alright! i'm okay! i went out tonight after being sick and homebound for 5 day!!!! ahh. i still feel like crap but it's 4th of july! and parties! and carnivals! too much. i don't want to go overboard and then get more sickk which i think is probaly going to happen anyways...
