Grizzly Adams did have a beard.

So hockey season is over. Bummer. The Rangers blew it big time. Its hard not to be bummed but I'm trying. Oh well. At least the Yankees looked good tonight. On Monday I got a tattoo. It was a pretty bad idea considering the fact that I dont have a job or money but, oh well. 99% of the things I do are bad ideas so, whats one more? It was something I've wanted for a while and since everything else in my life has gone to shit at the moment I just said fuck it (I'LL DO IT LIVE.*). I'm very happy with the way it turned out and its healing up nicely. Hopefully I can put together some cash to finish it before it gets too warm and pools start opening. Here's a shitty picture of it.

This weekend

was cool. First off, the weather was absolutely perfect. The show on Saturday was cool. The drive there was not. I saw Title Fight. 108 played Arctic. It was all very fun. Pita Hot rules. Ego waffles are also good. The Yankees lost. I stayed in Queens. I slept on a tiny couch and was awoken by a bunch of little annoying kids outside. The fucking Rangers lost again. Sunday nights show was also fantastic. All the bands were cool to see but Bane took the cake. That band is seriously mind-blowingly good live. I got free Capital 7". Cool. On the ride home some police man pulled us over and thought I was hiding contraband. (which I was not) Uncool. Rub Reese dropped me off and I owe him one for that and he is the man. Good bye.

Today and few days into the future

Today was sorta weak. I went with Tim to sit around and watch him get a tattoo but he ended up not getting one. I worked everything out with my appointment and I couldn't be happier about that. The Rangers got killed and the Yankees blew a lead in the ninth. Great. At least skateboarding and coke slurpees are still fun. I still need a job. Im going to be spending the next two days in the city watching some of the best hardcore bands going right now and that should be uplifting. Next week Im getting a tattoo and one of the best LIHC shows in a while is happening. Cool deal.

If the devil had a face it would like like mine...

Show was canceled and it rained for a few days. That sucks. Its nice out today and Im getting a haircut. Cant complain. There is a new song that a band called Another Breath wrote and put up on their myspace. Its probably one of the best hardcore songs Ive heard in a while. It rules. Check it out. www.myspace.com/anotherbreath

The past few days.

Have been weird. Its really strange not having a job. Ive been skateboarding a decent amount and listening to too much Title Fight and (old)AFI. I got a new large bed which is nice. I need a job. Bleah.

Today

Today was a pretty good day after one complete dump day. I went to IHOP with a girl I like and the Rangers won. My band got put on a pretty cool show. I went skateboarding and saw a few of my friends. That is all.

Watch this.

I got fired.

Great. Ill be in my room with these 2 albums for the next few days. See ya.

ps

My friend Chris was nice enough to film my bands set from the other night. Here it is.

Easter

Today I woke up at around 12 and headed out to West Babylon to some random bar to see a few bands play. A band called Black Teeth played and they were awesome. Thieves and Assassins also played and they are always a pleasure to see. Afterward I went skateboarding at Speedy Bump with Fiacco and Rob Rice. It was cold and Speedy Bump rules. After a little bit of boring details I ended up at Bcox's and we ate the cake we started making the night before. It was pretty delicious. Basically thats all I did today. Im addicted to this song. I cant find the regular version so here is a band called the Junkyard Dogs covering it. Cool.

First Show

My band Locked In's first show was last night and it went off much better then I had expected. My stick got stuck in one of the lugs of my snare drum but, oh well. I had fun and the rest of the show was cool. Title Fight played. Awesome.

Permanant

"There's certain things that even time can't change"

For whatever reason Ive been listening to this album a ton lately. Probably because it rules.
