Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm proud to say that I am no longer a homeless vagabond drifting all over Brisbane. No more crashing on couches, no more rude awakenings, and no more using enviro-bags as sock and underwear drawers for me - I was accepted for a new place and moved in the day I signed the lease. Some SGers would be familiar with my new...

No houses on fire, please
I feel like my brain's been piloting my body for almost twenty-two years, and only now is it starting to properly learn the controls.
Things are looking up.

You only just discovered masterbation? Wicked.
Also; wanna destroy Dillinger & liquor together in Brisbane?

Once tickets are on sale and I've secured one I'll let you know what up but the plan is that myself and a friend will be heading north to check it out.
I was just lurking on the boards and came across the "I..." thread in Silliness. I was about to add a little something to said thread but when the ideas kept coming and coming I decided it's better suited for here.
In short, I am fed up.

no, but mail service has been screwing me over for long time now.
I have a SEGA mega drive and an original gameboy, but no atari...you need to get out of BRIS, why did you move there in the first place? fool.

I am currently in the guest room of my friend/bandmate's house, where I'm temporarily living until I find a place of my own. I'd be up shit's creek and without a paddle had it not been for him letting me stay here. Still, I must admit that this living arrangement, temporary as it may be has its fair share of frustration - namely, sometimes I...

well at least your friend is living up to the bro's before hoe's rule...for now.
I can promise something fleeting
Just a quiet evening that will pass
and although we ain't got nothing to show
by sitting at home
it'd mean a lot to me.
Chilling out at home tonight, alternating between watching shitty television, reading a book on Ian Curtis (which I just finished) and playing guitar, something I've been doing much more of recently. I think I'm the...

Merry Christmas! Personally I'm not the religious type, but today's been fun regardless - plenty of beer & wine, catch-ups with the family, and general lazing around - something that's extremely welcome after being busy all month at work. Every year work pushes me to the breaking point thanks to rude Christmas shoppers and stress, then when the day comes I'm snatched back from the...

Thank you for your input 
I will be taking the advice of yourself and Miss Kye, amongst others, by living alone until someone really good comes up

How's the band stuff going, man?

I'm pretty positive most of the people who have known me for years would still be worried about me kidnapping them in a panel van, let alone a relative stranger who I know through the internet. Maybe I'll say hi the next time I see her during day light hours.
You'd better whore out those demos once they're up and happening. You got a myspace for all this fresh mayhem?
As for my stuff I'm still keen to get something together along the lines of Dillinger but am not taking any steps to do so until I have my liscence which hopefully should be before the end of the year. Another problem that raises it's head is the fact I know absolutely zero guitarists who are into this style of music and a lot of randoms I've met just lack ass at it. I'm thinking I need to hijack a jazz guitarist and make him listen to Miss Machine a thousand times in a row A Clockwork Orange style -- having his ears ripped open by hooks and shoving a speaker in there. Seriously though it's going okay, there aren't many double kick runs cause I'm still not great at them but all the shit I'm coming up with is fucking fast and complex, sometimes like a break beat thing that will switch to a weird latin tinged pattern at any moment. Hopefully there will be something to reveal to the world soon...

My reviews for next month's Tsunami are done and sent. Pick up the new issue when it hits the streets on October 5th to see my take on the new ones from Parkway Drive, Obituary, Against, and more, plus other reviews, interviews etc. from our many talented (and awesome) writers.
Hopefully I'm getting my Iron Maiden ticket tomorrow. If I don't, I'll openly weep.
