let me rephrase.
i wont date a guy in a band who has no other motives in life.

he must have responsibility for himself, his head on straight, and has a back up plan - and at least SOME form of financial backing for himself.

Make sense?

Believe me, I live with a musician, support TONS of musicians, and I'm a mommy to tons of them, too...I know their lack of responsibility and lack of motivation for anything else BUT music more than anyone should. hahaha.

Anyways.... Why the random question?

Jun 19 2005 10:51 AM

Hey guys sorry i couldn't make any of your last shows but if you plan a reunion tour then i'll for sure be there. Your music has really matured and into a much bigger sound and its real good, its a shame you had to break up. But what can you do? life goes on. good luck in your futures ahead of you.

I looked at the pictures from the dance party. You wrote that Danial Trent and I were playing Daco Jones. We were actualy playing Rapture by Pedro The Lion. Just wanted to wine about something. If Danial is going to stay an extra month I say we go back to groundworks.
