National Geographic - Songs of The Humpback Whale

Songs of The Humpback Whale

my buddy found this in an antique shop/record shop downtown. the record shop (antiques up front, then the store splits into a back room of records) has a record player we can use to make sure any scratches or what not don't affect playback too much and is to our liking, he bought it for maybe $5 or so, ive had it for about 5 months though...maybe more. we listened to all of side 1 in the store and even the clerk liked it. since my friend didn't have a record player and had been using mine he lent it to me, and i immediately ripped side 1....then it sat in my room where on Friday i finally ripped side 2 and am barely sharing with everyone now. he has had a record player for some time now...i needa give this back.

Through The Grapevine - Throwback Show at La Villita- San Benito,TX October 3, 2010

Here is my brother and some of my good friends bands set from a couple weeks ago.
Some good friends (MEANSVision) recorded and edited the videos for them. [check out the Young Maths videos from that night as well]
This show was about old friends getting together and having a good time. It initially started because people in our area of the state and our scene got tired of the way bands/people in bands treat each other now a day. We used to go to a local show and be able to see our close friends and make new ones every show, but as we've noticed lately in the scene down here, other than the music itself sounding like every other "core" type band (hardcore/metalcore/etc.) the people are just shit. honestly no other way to put it. bands heckle each other instead of support each other and start fights at shows or stoop to online feuds to show whatever dislike they have towards their fellow musicians. All the bands on the bill have been around for at least 3 years or more (except for a couple last minute changes, which was nice), but as of the last couple hardly ever got any shows together due to various reasons. it was a night for friends and family to get together and not hear any bullshit. a night to just watch, listen, dance, scream, sing and enjoy each others company like the old days. It was amazing, people i hadn't seen in years showed up from other parts of Texas to play and just watch as well. anyway, watch the videos if you'd like...i highly recommend the new song "Time Lapse Before The World Collapse" if you only watch one or two. Through The Grapevine just finished recording a 10 track full length with their friend and old bassist who is a recent graduate of Full Sail University in Orlando. should be out sometime in the next couple months.

Quick after lunch/before going back to work post

Job # 1 (Hollywood Video) will finally be closing in 10 days!!!!
We've gone day by day for two months just selling stuff off, now we finally know when were shutting the doors for good. A relief, but also sad. By far the best job ive ever had.
...well, gotta go back to job #2 (Green Mountain Energy) and finish the day.
with one job in the mix and no school till almost September i'll try to make more posts to this neglected thing.

Photos From Wreck

Maybe i lied

more posts later...got into a car wreck this past sunday morning around 3am with my brother.
rolled over three times.
my body sucks right now.
other than work ive just been/will be sleeping in all my free time for the next couple of days.

What can i say?

Its obviously been foreevveerrr!
worked two jobs from december to april.
was let go from 2nd job (temporary position, i knew it was coming)
got rehired by same company but in different position same week.
quit new position at 2nd job before day 1 of work to concentrate on school.
my only final is tomorrow
my other class this semester didnt require a final :D
straight to my current job (which is more than likely going out of business soon)
then two straight days off, something i havent had in months
cant wait for tomorrow, but am also kind of scared about my job situation here in the near future.
it'll happen the way its supposed to i guess.

hope everyone is well.
thanks for stopping by if your new and for sticking around if your pretty familiar with the blog
more time soon, more posts soon.
