Beth Ditto Makes Me Feel Sick.

It took me ages to find a video i wanted to post, and after all that ive posted it before so heres a different one:




Havnt thought what im going to write as usual, so it might be abit random.

To be honest i think of stuff to write, but then i think 'why the fuck am i writing all this?'. Whats the purpose.

Another new bass and a few other things on the way to me. these extra hours are nice.

Been gradually using twitter more, but with only 5 followers (only 3 i know) its not being used as much as it would do.

Sunday i stayed over Lisa's, it was nice to get away from home for once. She makes a great (drunken) chilli, 3 plates worth shows it and a bacon sarnie and a cuppa in the morning (Y).
Looking for gigs to go to on my birthday week off, so far theres:

Dan Le Sac Vs. Scroobius Pip: KOKO LDN, 23/3/10
Tiger Lillies: Hastings, 27/03/10

hahah wow.

London was alright last week too, just being in a different enviroment. I shall travel around more in the new year, even though i have no-one to travel with haha, i shall create these memories solo.

Had today off to compensate having to work Christmas eve. I shouldve done more today but i couldnt really go anywhere due to the fucking snow. I could go on about the snow and cold but i wont. Sometimes i hate my non-negativity (oxymoron haha). But trying to see a positive or just plainly not looking for the negative has helped me in life. Removing negativity helps too.

What a fucking hippy haha. ''Mind expansion'' isnt all bad! You see things in different lights and learn to ''see'' more. Im sober right now.


Hmm i think that might do for now. Ive written more than i thought i would.

Im Going Picking Tomorrow :D

Ive been waiting all year for this! And to celebrate, heres a trippy vid/////




I met a boy wearing Vans, 501s, and a
Dope Beastie t, nipple rings, and
New tattoos that claimed that he
Was OGT,
Back in '92,
From the first EP

And in between
Sips of Coke
He told me that
He thought
We were sellin' out,
Layin' down,
Suckin' up
To the man

Well now I've got some
Advice for you, little buddy
Before you point the finger
You should know that
I'm the man,

And if I'm the man,
Then you're the man, and
He's the man as well so you can
Point that fuckin' finger up your ass

All you know about me is what I've sold you,
Dumb fuck
I sold out long before you ever heard my name

I sold my soul to make a record,
Dip shit,
And you bought one

So I've got some
Advice for you, little buddy
Before you point your finger
You should know that
I'm the man,

If I'm the fuckin' man
Then you're the fuckin' man as well
So you can
Point that fuckin' finger up your ass

All you know about me is what I've sold you,
Dumb fuck
I sold out long before you ever heard my name

I sold my soul to make a record,
Dip shit,
And you bought one

All you read and
Wear or see and
Hear on TV
Is a product
Begging for your
Fatass dirty
Dollar

So...Shut up and

Buy my new record
Send more money
Fuck you, buddy

Analyze and Interpret

Today on the bus home i needed to piss so bad it hurt. Serves me right for my liquid lunch haha. Now thats out the way.

Im feeling quite euphoric and without any help from any drugs. Warm.

Chris Wolstenholme is an amazing bassist. Im trying to learn this track, so far im 2 bars into it. Its both a finger and mind workout.


I have nearly a grand in the bank, i just need to get my provisional filled in and sent off. Well ive filled it out, i just need to force myself to get my photo done :( I hate photos of myself.

Now this track,,,,,, bar the intro i cant play it :( And Chris even sings while playing this fast. cock.

Saturday, 15 August 2009

But ill be damned if i dont wanna kiss you.....hard.

Recently ive been reading alot of political based literature, (Live from death row) and about society (1984, Animal Farm and now We). Well i finally got round to watching Zeitgeist. Wow. What an eye opening documentary.

Theres 3 parts. The first is about religion, and how Christianity is based on the Egyptian deitie 'Horus', theres alot to it, but it basically shows how Christianity is a story, that there was no real Christ. They have examples of about 6 other 'Sons of God' who were born on Dec 25th, had 12 Deciples (or Brothers), died and was ressurected...ect ect.

Part 2 is how the government were the ones behind 9/11 and 7/7, so they could use these events to create a 'white flag policy', to basically take away many human rights and incite fear.

Some facts:

* The towers were designed to survive an impact from a plane.
* Aircraft fuel (Kerosene), doesnt burn at high enough temps to melt steel.
* The way the towers fell show obvious signs of a controlled demolition. Explosions going off underneath the collapse.
* People who survived the initial impact report explosions at the base, even before the first plane hits. And numerous reports from NYC firemen about hearing explosions during the rescue.
* A passport of the Iraqi 'suicide pilot' being found on ground zero, in perfect condition. So this somehow survived the impact? The fire? The collapse? Not only that, the guy who owns the passport is still alive, in Iraq. He was surprised to find this out.
* Pools of molten steel being at ground zero for days after the collapse, there was no materials involved (in the building and aircraft) which couldve caused this.
-Which leads to the traces of Thermite found at ground zero.
-The base supports were cut through perfectly, which only a substance like thermite could do
* Tower 7 also fell during this time, its a 30odd storey building, and it collapsed inwards (ala controlled explosion), even though nothing actually hit it???!!!
Hence not many people heard about tower 7.

The pentagon attack:

* All videos from the time of impact have been consficated by the CIA.
* There was no seats, luggage, bodies or plane wreckage at the crash site, there is no way it couldve burned to nothing.
* Hours after the impact, the CIA literally 'Covered up' any evidence, with tons of soil.
* The 'suicide pilot' of the plane couldnt even fly, his flight instructor said he wasnt fit to fly a 2 seater, let alone a commercial plane.
* There was a mass of street lights, electrical poles ect that this ''pilot'' would have had to missed to get the correct angle.

Now onto 7/7, the London bombings, ill keep this short. Examine the pictures of the bus/train and youll see the explosion came from beneath the vehicals, not from inside (Suicide bombers backpack theory).

The 3rd part of Zeitgeist covers economy. And how one private company 'The Federal Reserve' loans money to the US government (with interest), for the government to use. But the government cannot reply what they borrow, so time after time they are in more debt. Its the beginning of the World Banking System.

Anyway, check it out, itll open your mind to how powerful and currupt Governments are.

Now some music :)

Love the synth on this. Trying to replicate it on me bass.


I like this video, and not for the lesbianism. Its a very cleverly done video. My interpretation is the girl with dreads represents a drug, and the other girl is down without her.

I have enough pedals.... for now. :)

And if you don't love me now, you will never love me again

Im tired and achy, i had things to say but cant recall them.


This song bugged me for ages, Radio 2 use the bass interlude as a soundbite, and it took me ages to find the song :-/ Although in this vid its abit different from the studio version, but i cant find that anywhere on utube.



My mum likes Tom Waits, so i need to post one of his videos in celebration. Usually she doesnt like any of my music. Hes a master.

First it giveth, then it taketh away...

Im tired and achy. I did have something to write in here, but i forgot what it was.

Monday, 10 August 2009

Another day another dollar.

Today (around 3.30am) i finished Animal farm. Im not very good at reviews, but ill have a go. It was a good book, very cleverly written. Its short, but thats an advantage with it. The ending is abit odd though, it felt like a lose end.

I am tired. Early night tonight, long day tomorrow. Working with Lisa though :)

I need some new music, hopefully Chris will sort me out with something when he returns my memory stick. Ive discovered how good The Police are, some nice basslines sting plays, simple yet effective.

Ive rediscovered my liking of the dresden dolls.
This is so full of feeling and emotions, Brian puts it all into his drumming, the dynamics, timing and sheer emotion.


Theyre touring soon over here, but i doubt theres anyone who'd come :(

Sunday, 9 August 2009

fucking typical, 2nd to last componant and it goes wrong. ffs i even knew it was going to happen. i hate my life, im in such a bad mood, this is fucking typical for me.

fuck everything.

wiki wiki wow

Just finished watching Resident Evil Extinction. ahahah i have no real comment for it, its an alright film, obviously abit tongue in cheek.

Bit at the end with the 2 Millas....wouldnt mind abit of that ;) Shame they didnt have Sienna in this one :(

Ive had a good day, spent most of it with Lisa and her boys Shane and Alex. I sorted out her pc (there wasnt anything wrong with it in the end), and then we went down the pub for lunch and a few drinks.... 6 hours later and im home.

Im very warm and abit tired now.

Todays song:


I love the second pre chorus where it all breaks into the heavier bit. A nice build up. Alex's Warwick sounds so warm and fat on this track.

Todays track isssssss: Kasabian.



Another band who started out alt. but are now mainstream indie shit ala Kings of Leon (started off very blues and jazz orientated, now just play single chord progression shit) and QOTSA (Was more stoner/alt rock and wearnt afraid to be different).

Sunday, 2 August 2009

I want something good to die for, to make it beautiful to live.

Im craving Psilocybe semilanceata. Its nearly season and ive been a good boy this year (Y).
Sit and trip to this, good times :)


QOTSA lost it when Nick left.

I may watch the DVD in abit, i wanna watch Silent Hill, but i dont hahaha.

This was one of mine and Emilys songs :-/ Oh how the lyrics relate.


Love the freebird reference haha

*insert generic title here*

Im bored, therefore i eat. And ive ran outta beer -.-

-Wow it took me 2 hours to carry on from there hahha.

Im feeling abit guilty, i was meant to go to Lisa's birthday drink tonight, but alas no money until tomorrow when my cheque clears, so i let her son Shane know. And i just got a text from her saying 'no-one turned up, story of my life.' :( I think shes been drinking, so ill reply in the morning and apologize then.

Today i re-learnt 'Black Dog' by Zeppelin, so its todays video:



They dont make them like they used to. If i ever perform this live ill dedicate it to Lisa lol. If my maths are correct she was 4/5 when this was released.

I want to gig again. I have now stopped buying bass gear, so all that money is going towards driving. Money = Car = Band.
I am bored, therefore im eating. Ive ran out of beer too -.-

Tuesday, 28 July 2009

I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

Euphoria Morning......Ive forgotten how beautiful this album is.

brap.

Mmmmm new subwoofer and speakers

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM the bass now goes. Although 17w still sounds tiny in comparision of the 300w my bass amp is.


This is why we created sub-woofers. Dubstep basslines.

Finished reading 'Live from death row' today, what an insite into the prejudiced US law system. Although the book may be outdated to todays standards, it still showed what life is like as an African-American going through the arrest, trial and subsequent life sentence.

Mumia himself had his sentence dropped from death, to life one day before he was set to be executed. Convicted and sentenced to death on the December 9, 1981 for the apparant murder of police officer Daniel Faulkner. Even with witness statements, various forms of evidence proving he was not the killer, he was still given this sentence.

He has served 28 years as an innocent man. Numurous re-trials and applications for re-trial and appeals have failed.

One day justice will be made.

Took his religion and painted it white...

This week has gone so fast, thank *insert religeous anomaly here* that its payday today, im fucking broke. No more bass stuff till i reach a grand. I still wonder why i even write this.

I need to find someone who will design an extention for my tatts.

If anyone can sit through this track/vid without shedding just one tear, then theyre dead inside. Even ill admit to it.



The Europeans say us brits ''live to work, instead of working to live''. This is very true, well to an extent, theres still so many lazy fuckers around. So many of my friends that went to uni ''for a better career'' are now in major debt and jobless, the irony.

Ugh, im getting fed up with seeing his name all the fucking time. :-/

Black

such a powerful voice, so much emotion.....

Hey...oooh...
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...yeah...

Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a sun
In somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine

Cuntinued from previous blog.,,,

Naw fuck it. Cant be assed.

People annoy me. I see so many hypocrisies too, i hate hypocrites.

Cynical is the best term for how i feel.


Today was a productive day, i was up at 5 (reverse hang over) considering how much i drank in them 12 hours yesturday. It was nice to see my sis, cuz, fatboy, claire and my bro.

Given up on Laura though, if she cant be bothered to contact me for months on end. So much for a close friend. They all leave in the end.

I hope Sami's well though. I would write more but eyes are watching.

I did some gardening today, finally had time to sit down and practice on my double bass.

why am i writing this? I don't care. I am a hypocrite in my own blog, since i find the idea of putting all your thoughts and feelings on the Internet a totally pointless activity. I suppose I'm just that bored.

Back to the system tomorrow. I want to work to live, not live to work. This country is backwards sometimes. Everyones rushing.

Im still going.....

nah cant be assed now.

I feel odd. I want to build bridges with previous people ive known and done wrong. But im not sure if i should. And why i feel like it all of a sudden.

Lets see how the week goes.
