| | Hott Shows Coming Up Soon: Poison The Well, Cursive, Blood Brothers, Von Blondies, Taking Back Sunday, Prom Queen (just played).
Wow, it's been an incredibly long time (for me) since I have updated this thing. I guess with the fact that Xanga was down for a week and stuff, I got kind of tired of checking and seeing that it didn't work. But have no fear, Sam is back to continue amusing you for another day.
Band stuff started on Monday. It's been, ummm, interesting thus far. Yes, interesting is the correct word for this. Our band director, Mr. Allam is too wet behind the ears. He really doesn't know what he's doing, but he acts like he does. That gets annoying rather quickly. Then there is McCallister, who nearly said a racial slur to my "home-boy" Michael. Made Michael go inside and bitched him out in front of the whole band. So, yes, he needs to go. Our drum majors are completely, and utterly worthless in everyway possible. They do a half-assed job on what they are supposed to do, and when the section leaders (i.e. Me) have to finish their jobs, they punish us. "Short-Man" needs to fuck off, giving me push-ups and shit. I should have told him to fuck off; I was doing his job, yet he had the nerve to punish me. So, yes, this year is already off to a stressful beginning.
Once again, band picks back up tomorrow. This week, instead of it running from 8-12:30, it's running from 8-4. All day. Not cool people, not cool at all. I'm not sure how much more I can take off all these worthless, incompetent people. It's driving me insane. Other than band, I've spent so much time filming, I feel like I either have the board glued to my feet or the camera stuck to my eye. It's absolute craziness. I have nearly 8 hours worth of footage; but of course it will all be edited and condensed to a short 3-7 minutes. Ahh, the joys of filmography. Such a waste of all that film. I'll have to make an "editing room floor compilation tape" or something.
I've been spending an awful lot of time with all my friends. I am now forever with them, be it at my house or theirs' or somewhere. It's just more craziness. And did you see that list I have in the beginning of this entry? Thats a lot of sweet shows coming up. Very hott stuff. Too hott to handle. And I know you all will be meeting me there. I'm planning on going to most of them, so that's going to be great. Went to Canal Club tonight and saw Taking Back Sunday with Paul, Will, Isaac, and Melissa. It was a pretty good show. They focused a lot on their new singles, but it was still ok. No cover charge, so I'm not going to fret about it. Their set was pretty long, but by the end, they kind of got tired and flat sounding. Show Rating: C-.
Well, I need to jet. Just a few minutes ago, I finished meeting with the guy who made Pole Green Skate Park. He does construction work and architectural design and so I want him to install an adjustable rail in a offset portion of our driveway (which is going to be paved). It's going to be hott stuff. And now, it is more time for editing and writing sweet music with Sebelius. More Later, Much Love, Let's Hope Xanga Doesn't Crash Again... |
