today i woke up at like 12:30, laid in my bed until 2, and then went to kinko’s to get flyers made for the two shows. i just drove around wilmington and gave a bunch to people with only a freshly burned copy of through being cool to accompany me. i have about sixty left, if you live in an area around delaware and want to help hand them out, let me know!
hahaha
I just emailed the trocadero about playing with alkaline trio march 11th. my reasoning was pretty much “DUDE GOOD MOURNING IS SO GOOD”. If I ever get booked for another show ever it’ll be legitamite miracle hahaha
to take the good with the bad
today’s been pretty weird.
i kept waking up during the night and having these random dreams, and i finally got to actually sleep at like 7. i woke up at one and found out it was supposed to snow today, so when it really picked up i had to cancel the show i was playing tonight since my car doesn’t drive well in the snow at all. fucking bummed. i also got an email back about playing the...
The Ataris are playing five minutes from my house...
suncascades:WHAT? Are they playing the grange?!
I’m only going in hope that they play The Boys of Summer. Best cover ever.
i just realized
i’m playing with fucking transit, my heart to joy, balance and composure, and snowing next month. i realize i put myself on the show because i’m putting it on but fuck, that’s still pretty cool. both bands mean a lot to me, and i’m going to be playing my shitty acoustic songs in front of people who feel the same way as i do about them.
these past like seven months have...

Day 7/8 - Huntington WV/Murfreesboro NC
trunksandtales:
These days feel like one. So I’m recapping it all together.
We left Ian’s outside DC for Huntington WV. It took about 7 hours. We shouldn’t have had that long of a drive. But, that is beside the point. The people in Huntington WV were all incredibly kind to us, so so nice. We played Shamrocks Pub, a nearly empty bar, but they couldn’t have treated us better. Thanks to everyone...
A Dilemma.

I spent majority of my time today with my Grandmother. She is absolutely losing it and it’s killing me little by little, but that’s beside the point of this post. Earlier this afternoon during one of our fragmented conversations, Grandma asked me to “pray for her before I go to sleep tonight.” Uh-oh.
I stopped praying about 10 years ago now, when I was 10 years old. I used to...
TRANSIT ADDED TO THE FEBRUARY 19TH BARN SHOW... →
so i’ve been spending all day running through these new songs, listening to the hot water music / alkaline trio split from six years ago that i only recently began to care existed and reading brendan kelly of the lawrence arms’ blog: badsandwichchronicles.blogspot.com.
i’d be lying if i said i cared about this kind of music at all from 2006-2008. i was too busy listening to...
new stuff
so for the past week i’ve been working on some new songs, for about five different comps i’m going to be on. i reworked the song where i use the daylight line at the end, wrote about three new ones including the one i posted, and i’m trying to figure out another one for a zombie comp i’m going to be on (yes, a comp about zombies.)
this is how i’ve worked it out:

Enough Is Enough: A Compilation To Benefit...
christianbeale:
So we just got studio time all set up to record our track for this compilation. We are locking ourselves up in a control room for most of Superbowl Sunday to lay it down. I couldn’t be more excited to get this done with.
This compilation is being put together by my good friend Paul Blest from Delaware. It supports a cause that tends to divide and separate the people of this...

make them downloadable, dude!
give me a reason not to lash out.
so i spent the last two days with my boys in Trunks & Tales and Anniversary Club. These three dudes represent everything that’s right about DIY and punk music in general. I met Dan and Justin from T&T earlier this month and realized that they’re pretty much the cream of the crop of whatever it is that I do, and although I hadn’t heard much from Chris (Anniversary Club) I...
Dear La Dispute,
suncascades: fuck yes. this band rules so much.
come to the East Coast.
it seems i never get tired of second guessing...
i fucking suck.

i’m probably the most non-committal person i know. i can’t decide on what i want to do with my life, what girls i’m interested in (not like i ever act on it), what kind of music i want to play, anything. there’s way too much i feel like i’m going to miss out on if i don’t do fuckin’ everything, and it sucks.
most of all at this very second though, i just...
