Weekend

Yesterday was Little Jon's 18th birthday, we/he had a party. A ton of his friends were here and they are all hilarious, it was a really good time. I didn't go to BMTH because no one would drive me but oh well I'm definitely going Monday so that'll be good. I hope Josh can save me some Rockstar Guava's. Today I woke up around 1230 and just laid in bed for a while. Then I went to my mom's because my uncle Jim that I haven't seen/was missing for 11 years came to visit, so that was cool to hang out with him. My mom got RIDICULOUSLY drunk and was literally falling down knocking everything over, so I left. Now I'm home, played a few games of mario baseball, listening to Blink 182 and just relaxing. I think I'm staying in for the night. Tomorrow I have no plans, but at least I have Monday to look forward too.

BMTH this Friday...


I went to Brooklyn, Ny with Energy yesterday. That was pretty cool because I don't do anything ever. It kind of just made me wish tour was happening already. Anyway, Bring Me The Horizon is this Friday and Monday so I'm fucking amped for that. I haven't even left the house in so long, besides yesterday. People are always here though so it doesn't matter that much. I just wish it wasn't so cold anymore. I want to be able to go outside and go for walks, or play basketball or baseball. Anything like that would be nice, but no it's fucking freezing. Whatever, there's actually been more to read on the internet lately than usual. I've been checking up on Tom Delonge's video blog, Mark Hoppus' blog, and a lot of their sites/fan-sites. So hearing news about them and their recording process is awesome. They're 6 songs deep into the new cd and said they're picking up right where they left off with the self-titled cd. I can't choose a favorite Blink cd, Self-titled and Take Off Your Pants And Jacket are usually the two I get stuck with.
I've also been searching so damn hard for the new Earth Crisis cd, I got one song and it's awesome. But I cannot wait to hear the rest of that cd. It comes out in May but I clearly can't wait that long so I'm going to download it as soon as I can. I'll definitely buy the cd when it's out too.

hmm...


I can't wait for tour. For some reason I feel like it's going to be 100x better than the last few times. I don't know why, but I'm really excited. Maybe it's because I'll be away for a long time, and seeing new places and stuff like that. I'm going to video tape pretty much the entire tour. Van rides, gas station stops, supermarket trips, shows, after shows, hotel rooms, other places we stay, etc. I can tell a shit load of funny stuff is going to happen so I need to catch it all. Who knows maybe it will all be made into a dvd or just a youtube thing. I watched Blink 182's "The Urethra Chronicles" today and laughed my ass off. I can't believe how funny childish humor still is. Writing "FUCK" in huge letters and lighting it on fire as a banner behind them as they perform, fucking genius. What makes it better is they're adults. I really hope I'm still childish and immature when I'm older. I'm sure I will be.

I am currently listening to the Classics Of Love e.p. It's really, really fucking good. Jesse Michaels is a genius. He has never written a bad song. It sounds just like Common Rider which is awesome. I hope Energy gets to play with them on this tour, that'd be really cool to see Jesse play and to hang out with and talk to him.

Bring Me The Horizon is coming up soon too, Feb 27th and March 2nd. I can't wait to see them again for a 7th and 8th time. Plus Four Year Strong is paying so it'll be cool to chill with Josh. Besides those 2 shows there isn't much to look forward to until tour. Louis Ck is doing a show the day before, March 14th and that will be "Hilarious". Yeah fuck you.

Funny, Tour, Poo


I will be with Energy on this tour and I'm pretty pumped for it. I don't know why but I think this will be the most fun ever. I'm video taping alot of our time in the van, at the shows, after the shows, where ever we are staying, wawa, cali, florida, delaware, whatever. So I will be posting videos on here alot when that time comes. Hopefully I will have some of my T-shirt designs done by this tour so I can sell them and make some money for myself. I should be able to get them done, there's a month til the tour and all I need is a certain marker to finish them and then scan them and send them to Josh or finish them myself.

hmm...



I went to the mall today with Devin and Dcap. Two of the funniest people I know so it was an awesome time. For the past 6 months I haven't listened to much besides Blink 182 and I plan on keeping in that way for the rest of my life because why would I choose to listen to something else when I know I can listen to something better. I am pretty sure I'm going on tour with Energy in March, and seeing Louis Ck the day before we leave by the way, but I have a meeting with probation March 26th and I'll be in Tampa Florida and I'd clearly rather be there than in a meeting with probation. So I'll call the day before and say I can't make it because I'm deathly ill. I'm pretty excited to go to California and out west more. I've only been all over the east coast and a little bit in the middle. Anyway I got a sweet Ramones shirt at the mall today, and I got the Shai Hulud shirt shown above today. Tomorrow is Blink 182 day so I have to wear my Blink shirt and only listen to them....again. Actually right now I'm listening to Avoid One Thing because someone on B9 was making fun of them so I had to remind myself how good they are.
Fuck you.

Oh and watch this it could be the funniest, most genius thing I've ever seen.

This might be the first shirt I do, it'll be for Energy.
It's just a rough drawing right now but I'll work on it and keep posting.

YES





They're officially back, writing a new cd and are going to tour again.

Sunday, February 8, 2009

Tonight!



I got 2 of these and I'm all set.
Blink 182 soon.

Friday, February 6, 2009

Yes!




Reunion and new cd?!
This could be the best news in the history of music.
Also April 21st, the new Earth Crisis album comes out.
This year also has a new Set Your Goals, Hope Con,
Most Precious Blood, possibly Bring Me The Horizon, Energy?!
Looks like a pretty damn good year.

Aside from flipping out about all that news, recently I haven't done anything.
Every day is the same, the same people come over every day.
Tony works so fucking much, I don't understand why or how he does it.
I might be printing some T-shirts and selling them
they could be Energy shirts or they could be something else.
I'm pretty excited about doing that, it's a way for me to make money
and to sell shirts for them, or whatever I do it for.
There might be some good things coming involving a girl
so I'm excited about that as well.

But yeah, Blink 182 is reuniting so everything is good
no matter what.
