Megapod!

Well, The band I was in is officially no more. Not really bitter about it since I didnt like the attitdude and directions that the others were going into.Time to start something new.

Lets chalk another one on the wall for Runaways crashing at my apartment. This time Plus two! welcome Carlos and Xed From Quezon City. Carlos and me go back when i was staying at manila. We had a band and he played bass for it. Xed is his wife. With a third strong eye i might add.

So i missed out on aichas visit to manila but at least i went to Septs birthday party at some chinese resturant. It was funny when we got there coz i remember the first time i went there was years ago before we went to some gig. i was with Jun (fishbone) at the time for the band Bad Omen And wouldnt you know, the chicken there is still good. It was pretty fun but there wasnt any drinking on that night and i had to go back to olongapo as soon as possible since that was the day my two friends came over.

Also long time veteren of the olongapo scene started hanging out at my place. Hes the guy who introduced us to the magic of skimboard And hes got plenty of stories to tell like how gay some teams were and how bad leadership is.The more i start hanging around with new people the more i find out that the kids here who mail me bombs just do excatly that. Send you hate but not up to your face.

So a few nights ago there was this show at olongapo. Jek's production so ill show up for the support.call time is 6 but the bands didnt show up until 8. Thats just how it is here. almost no one shows any actual support for the production people. Try to get in free , watch your friends band play, if you get lucky and hook up bring her to the after party at your friends place and talk about how great you think you are and bring up issues about people and plan for the whole rockstardom you think you deserve.Why doesnt anybody wanna play first? Whats with the whole gate crash mentality? The gigs at olongapo are just a gathering of friends. Support this support that but you dont really take it to head right?Maybe its due to the place bieng pretty small, so the faces start getting familiar when you start hanging out alot more often. Competition , yes competition, was stupid since 3 bands played "Face Down".Just because you were first in line doesnt mean you made the song so dont think your famous or even getting there. I know this blog will be read around , but if you cant handle the criticism, dont fucking start a band.

i am neautral on the whole "is there really a god" thing. So keep me out of your debates and such. Yet at my Apartment im hearing things from both parties against each other. Im in the middle of it again. One calls the other crazy for believing in what she believes in, the other calls him a poseur for calling himself vegan since 2nd year but eating dairy products. Its not totally a whose god is more powerful thing but more like just bashing each other. its pretty stupid yeah but if things go out of hand oh well. Its still funny that the lies keep coming in and he doesnt know i can see through them.

Ill have to pass on allnighter of blogging, even though i have the oppurtunity, ill be busy getting back all the videos and music i lost. Yeah stupid ipod had a malfunction and i had to get rid of everything. gnyt yall. i havent slept since i got here 2 days ago. Ill take a nap first.
