tour journal

sorry i haven't updated in a bit. i've been real busy, we figured we'd be home and have nothing to do but write songs... but it's been insane.

we had a few days of practice and so many meetings and mumbo jumbo to do. we also were in new york for 3 days (we just walked in the door from that) we recorded a new song for a compilation.

yesterday i recorded from 10 am to like 8 pm, and they starved me and kept me like a rat in a cage. i had to be around doing things all day and being stressed out and trying to wrack my brain coming up with good ideas for our song.... i just couldn't do it anymore... by the time it came for me to record lead guitar, i was fried and couldn't think of anything. all i could think about was delicious food and i just ended up leaving it as is. i was pretty bummed out... then we had drive all the way through new york city and into brooklyn to take pictures for a new poster.

we stayed out until almost 5 in the morning getting photos taken. it was really nice of brandon do that for us, but i just felt so excausted. i think we have alot of cool pictures though that i'm excited about seeing, you know how i'm always into that kinda stuff.... and speaking of photographs, i have been taking a bunch and ill have to put them up soon. i'm just getting really lazy about that, i feel like its a waste of my time, considering all the musical work i have to do, and myspace messages and all of that kind of stuff. when we have to write, i feel so much pressure and stress all of the time. like theres always something more i could be doing, or always another song i should be writing, but then when i think about it... there can only be like 10-15 songs on an album, i can't go insane... but i don't even know what to think. i never know if anythings good enough... or good at all.

either way.. the moral of the story is. i'm stressed and i want to have something i'm proud of, rather than half assing everything. i hope it'll turn out that way

either way, i'm on my way out. hopefully ill have pictures soon, if i ever get the internet again.
