I Can't Help But Feel Like I Failed...I Know I Failed You All...

Well, here I am again. Not much at all has happened since my last post.

I passed out at work the other night. I guess 3 1/2 hours in front of a hot oven and apparently not enough to drink will do that to ya. I was having to bake and started to get a little lightheaded, so I went to the back sink and splashed some water on my face, then I sat outside for about 10 seconds. I felt a little better so I went back up to the oven. Ben hands me some dishes to put up, I set them down, say "I feel like I'm about to pass out," then pass out. Luckily Ed caught me.

That was the first time I've ever passed out.

I just got done working 8 days in a row. It sucked, but at least I'm gonna have one decent paycheck. I'm thinking about spending my money on a drumset, but I dunno...I feel really selfish doing that...I really wanna do something so I can give back to the people who have always been nice to me...

I need a haircut.

There's a show Tuesday. I get the feeling that like no one is gonna show up and I'm gonna feel terrible, like I've been feeling a lot lately.

I need a venue for the July 7th show. I wish Alex Walters would get back to me...

I finally got my imadethismistake CDs. They both look and sound great. Ed's making a music video for one of the songs. Hopefully it'll turn out well. I'm selling them for what I paid for them (2 bucks each). I hope people are into it because I have a lot invested in them.

That's about it. Hope your summer is going better than mine.

I Wish That I Could Make You Happy...I Wish That I Could Be An Old Pop Song That You Only Listen To When You're Lonely...

Well, Friday's show eventually ended up going pretty well. Things started out pretty shaky though. Check it:

So I wake up expecting a clear, blue sky since we're in the middle of a drought and all? No such luck...It's cloudy and starts sprinkling. It eventually clears off by the time I get to Meeks Park and get everything set up, but the bands are late. Josh Fletcher shows up at a little passed six. The show was supposta actually start at 5:30. Wonderful. Well, they eventually start and after about 3 songs a cop and the park director show up and say that people are complaining and we either have to change the show to acoustic or shut down, which is pretty lame because I've talked to the director about doing fullband before and he said it'd be fine. So anyway, the bands load up all their stuff and we all trek back to my house. My brother has parked something in the way of all the parking spots so my driveway is backed up like mad and the bands can't fit at first. So we all get out and push the van down the hill out of the way then get everyone situated. Finally, at about 8:15 we get started. There are 35 people crammed into my living room / hanging off the balcony...It's amazing. Everyone did wonderfully, but I'm pretty disappointed as I thought it was a bum show due to all of the delays and issues and crap, although they said they had an awesome time. There are some videos of it here: http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=spivaman

As for my thoughts on Aniston: I'm not as sad that TLH broke up anymore. All the guys in Aniston are awesome, a ton more social than the TLH dudes, and their live show is pretty awesome. Adam only said like 3 words to me the whole night though, which I thought was kinda lame, but everyone else was cool. I'm still sad that I didn't get to go on tour with them, but oh well. Maybe some other time. I hope.



This Friday's show has been canceled. Ben (Mancub) was killed in a fatal car accident Thursday night. I will probably have some copies of his final album that just came out today soon.


Upcoming shows:

6 / 29: Vera Maleta, This One's For Anna, Others TBA // Meeks Park?
7 / 07: foreverdown, Yoni Gordon, Others TBA // The Black and Gold Center?
7 / 31: imadethismistake, White York, Others TBA // The Go Away House?



I finally got paid at Cobb's Mill today. It's about time. I was getting in desperate need of some cash. I'm hoping by the end of the summer, though, I'll have enough spare cash to buy a drumset...

I need to start my summer reading...I really don't want to though. Next year is gonna be so weird.

That's all really...I doubt much of anything interesting is going to happen this summer, so don't expect to hear from me too too much...
