marry, shag, kill

ok and this is why AP is better than Kerrang for the simple reason as shit like this will inevitably happen, and being a fan of all bands involved (paramore, NFG, and madina lake) I find this hillarious especially knowing that not a soul in madina lake could or even think about hurting anyone even if the person broke both their shins and pissed on them…well maybe Mateo would then try to kick your ass but his shins would be broken so I don’t see it happening.

band love all around I am sure none of the choices ever on that list are brokencyde so until then never take it seriously.

so Kerrang is probably the best music magazine in the world.  they’ve been so good to us and and every one of their readers for so many years.  We recently (actually I don’t even remember when lol) did an interview for a section they have called “marry, shag, kill” or something where they present you with 3 celebs and you HAVE to pick which one you marry, which one you’d shag, and which one you’d kill.  It’s good clean innocent mag fun.  Anyhow one of the celebs on the list they gave to us was Hailey Wiliams and having already picked the marry and shag ones, we picked Hailey to kill…. BUT we added “with kindness” as a lame little nod to the fact that 1. i couldn’t kill a fly even if it crapped on my chest.  well actually that sounds interesting, i might like it……  anywho 2.  Hailey is amazing, they all are - super cool, nice and hugely talented. plus Paramore gave us our first UK tour and we’re forever in debted to them for that.  and 3.  we simply couldn’t care less about negativity and shit-talking etc.  Soooo, as a principle rule I don’t read message boards but I’ve “heard” that not only are some kids “talking shit” about it but that Chad from NFG was pretty upset about it.  I can’t confirm any of this, just what I heard (matter of fact, I doubt it but who knows).  But I wanted to make something clear.  For one, Chad is awesome.. we’ve met a few times and he is truly kick ass in every way.   and 2.. ..People who talk shit, start drama and generally bitch about things are unhappy people.. and that truly blowz for them.    i’ve been through more shit in my life than i even care to think about and have reached this incredibley serene, peaceful place.  Getting worked up about anything has become a laughable waste of my time.  If somebody doesn’t like us or our band/music..  who cares? I don’t, not even a tiny little bit.  how could anyone care? every body is supposed to love everything you do? pleeeease. to each his own.  if someone is too dumb to know that there is plenty of music out there to pick from and enjoy, it aint my problem.   ML has been through a lot of shit,  misunderstood, misrepresented etc. and I DOOONT CARE! sorry, I just don’t.  Things are what they are.  We bust our asses, try to write the best we possibly can and have been lucky as hell for every experience we’ve had.  i guess my point is.. don’t let stupid crap bother you.  it will chew your life away slowly.  oh and if you’re gonna hate on something? for the love of god (or whoever) please, please, please at least make it funny.   hair pie? sank you.

EP is coming out killer, much love- be happy- see ya out there!   i’m gonna go into my bathroom and see how many fingers I can shove up my butthole…. just for sport

New Found Glory - Making of “Don’t Let Her Pull You Down”

And you are the reason people commit suicide

Maybe it is just me, am I too emotional? Am I too attached? Am I too afraid to be alone?  Who knows especially not me but what I do know is that I am done ever trying to be friends with anyone ever and I do mean EVER again.  I have known people for almost my entire life and for years done anything they wanted to make them happy even though I thought it was boring or stupid, and for what? All for nothing just so they can go and get little snotty friends that use them and don’t give two shits about how you feel or what you do and when push comes to shove wouldn’t even look back as they left you for dead.  But for some dumb fucking reason I still think about you and care about you and wonder what I did wrong.

Or let’s take this scenario for a whirl.  Girl has no friends, finds two other girls with few friends, they all become best friends.  Late night game nights, bowling, birthday parties, all fun until one of them decides that they are going to start their life early and graduates before them.  All was fine for a while, morning visits to the school to see them catch up and play cards, everything we always did.  Then came the dreaded TATTOO! OH NO PLEASE NOT THAT!  And everything changed not that I had changed or they had changed but a picture on skin made me a different person and apparently I wasn’t any fun anymore.  I then didn’t talk to them for years until last August we got together one day to catch up and I was still the silly, goofy, straight edge, weird panted, band shirt wearing kid I had always been; and to be fair they dressed the same too but their personalities were nothing of the same.  All they wanted to do was get so drunk that they couldn’t remember what happened and then talk about all the stupid things people said they did.  What fun is that? Why would you want to purposely not remember what you did the night before?  And that was the complete end of that.

And now for the most painful in my lovely series of events, losing what I actually considered to be the best (girl) friend I ever had.  I am not going to lie, a drastic change in events proved to be better for all parties involved and it, to say the least devastated me, but I got over it quickly.  I saw her be more excited and that made me happy, I was just so glad to see her enthused about life again.  Now I haven’t known this girl for anywhere near as long as the others, but I felt as though I had known her for my entire life.  We liked the same shows (and they were not shows that most adults like), we had the same types of hobbies, we both cared about bands so strongly that we would do anything help them out.  If there are friend soul mates then she was mine.  But now because I am still friends with all parties involved in this turn of events I must be the one running back and forth you know, creating more drama.  UNTRUE to the fullest extent.  I text and get no reply, I send shit online where she does all of her business with friends and nothing in return.  But the biggest shocker is now I am blocked on twitter.  I know make real friends but when your friends live their lives out on the internet and that is the way to communicate to them then it becomes a big deal.  I had heard of things being written mainly accusing friends of causing her trouble, and while I have no proof besides the block that she assumed it was me, I know in my heart she does.  So the only great friendship I have ever had in my entire life went down the drain because of the internet, and it’s ability to not be private no matter what.  So I could tell her til I die that I didn’t do anything besides want her friendship but I doubt she will ever believe it.

So these are the three main things in my head constantly, I have been defriended so many times for the most trivial things ever and yes all of them bother me but these three really hurt the most.  I think about the people everyday and wonder what it would have been like if we were still friends.  I have been told it wasn’t me that people change but how could so many people just write me off so quickly?

Now do not get the title of this wrong I WILL NOT EVER KILL MYSELF, it was just a way to get the point across that not all people are strong enough to deal with so many rejections.  I just can’t take anymore I can’t take another story to add to the massive amounts of pain I have in me already so I give up.  The worst part of it all is that not a single person in this blog would I turn away if they came crawling back because I care about them all so much.  None of them will ever read this anyway, so I guess since I am crying now I will just end this while I still have a tiny sliver of dignity left after all is gone.

well i would update this but alas no time so here is my so beutifully put update HELLO!

stupid people

dear chipotle please hire people that can tell cheese from sour cream kthanx

Record Label Rant

So I was shuffling through some old ass AP mags this morning and I have come to the realization that Victory Records is pretty much the worst label in the world and I really wish their like 4 awesome bands would just release a whole bunch of albums just to get out of their contracts.  If I could I would buy every band on there out of their contracts in a heartbeat.  I came accross many ads for victory where they were pushing bands such as Atreyu, Silverstein, Hawthorne Heights, and Aiden and this was 2004-05.  OKAY well those were your popular bands not denying that at all go for it, but what bothered me is that they would throw in all these meaningless, didn’t go anywhere, got dropped in less than a year bands but no mention of Bayside.  Now yes I am a huge Bayside fan so I am probably blowing this out of proportion but just listen. Victory NEVER put Bayside in any ad for the label UNTIL they had the misfortune of losing their drummer in an accident.  Now don’t that sound kinda funny like “Oh man this band had a terrible accident and lost a member, so listen to them out of pitty”.  I mean it was the very next issue after it had happened, not even a few months or anything.  And now Bayside is one of their “big names” and they don’t care about that, they (from my understanding) are still under contract for “Shudder” even though Bayside didn’t re-sign with them, but they don’t send them any cd’s to sell on tour but yet they can go and make new merch without the bands permission and sell it.  WOW WAY TO GO VICTORY RECORDS, you are the biggest douchebags in the world.  Now this is only one account of this, they have fucked over Atreyu, Hawthorne Heights, and I am sure a whole bunch of other bands.  HH got out of it once I do believe but then went back, don’t understand that, but hey what ever.  Atreyu couldn’t get out of their contract fast enough and yet they haven’t been on the label in years but still Victory is pushing them out there like last weeks lunch menu in an innercity school.

So if I could wish for anything that wouldn’t change the world or hurt anyone drastically, I would wish for bands like Silverstein, A day to remember, and any other band that takes music seriously and is on Victory to leave as soon as you can.  There are a ton of other labels out there that will actually care for you and make you feel as though you are a viable asset to their company not just another flash in the pan that will make them money for the moment.

Warped tour anxiety

Not really anxiety but I just need to go I can’t wait a whole year to experience the most awesome tour around they need to have more tours like this.  I love cheap tickets with tons of bands and shit to do, I never find myself bored.  This year is going to be fucking fantastic, Madina Lake, Bayside, A day to remember, underoath, Saosin, and We the Kings.  The only thing that scares me is I have this utterly bad feeling that everyone I want to see will be playing at the same time, it’s happened before.

On a side note I can’t wait to see Silverstein and New found glory again

Also can’t wait for Blink in August or is it September lol maybe I should find that out
