Melody Maker for Sale!

Hello people, this is just a friendly reminder that the show with Hit Society is Saturday, February 11th at the I-rock in Detroit. Unfortunatley, that cold I mentioned a couple blogs back, almost disappeared, but then came back on stronger than ever! So I am very sick right now. That didn't stop me from recording a couple new songs today. Sometimes working on stuff can take your mind off being sick. I have been thinking about things a lot lately, and I think it might be time to say goodbye to the YMCA, I am thinking about quitting. I want to be free so I can visit my friends in New York. I am at odds right now. I feel like Michigan is the worst environment for creative types like myself. Well, maybe not ALL of Michigan, but rural Michigan. Yes I am thinking about leaving. If you know anyone in the market for a vintage Gibson Melody Maker, let me know. I'll give a hell of a deal on it because I need some funds to get out of here! ----Matt

My dinga-ling!!!!!

Hey people, I am now done with Christmas! (I am sure most of you guys are too!) Yesterday I bought a very good cd called "The Best of Chuck Berry: the Millenium Collection". It was very reasonably priced. Yes, I am a fan of the oldies. I identify with Chuck a lot, he's the kind of guy I imagine myself being like someday. He's kind of devilish, but charming! I aspire to be like him someday! His picture on the cover is so cool, he's all sweaty and shit. He didn't have a single hit until he was 30 yearsold, and his first number one hit was in 1972 with the novelty song "My dinga-ling". I also identify heavily with that song! http://www.chuckberry.com/ Well people, I hope you heard the commercial I made for the band! I am always recording new stuff. I recorded a new track yesterday too. I am considering making a trip out to a2 to a special place with a sale on beverages. Heck, I might even play an open mic tonight, but you know what? I can get a lot m

video camera

Hey people! I hope everyone is having a decent Christmas Eve! I still have one donut leftover for Santa. I posted a little video I made of myself playing guitar in the garage. I bought the camera today at Family Dollar, it was 10 dollars off from 30, so it was only 20 bucks! I hope it turns out to be a good investment. It was a last minute purchase. I did have fun learning how to use it today. Maybe I'll get my brother to help me shoot a video. I don't know though, I don't think many people at all watched it. hehe he he he he. I am not sure if I will be hanging with my friend  tonight. My stupid older sister is having her BF over tonight. Why does she always have to ruin everything? I am blocking her from my posts on facebook, she already alerted my mom that I put down my family was fighting. What a bitch! Well the next time she does something crazy, I am video taping it! ----Mattt

Christmas Eve Drama!

Hello people, my family is fighting on Christmas Eve! At least I got some donuts from Jerry's Market today. My cold, the symptoms changed a little bit this morning, but I think they are only a little worse. I am trying to trick myself into not being sick. The good news is that my guitar sounds pretty good in the garage, it is very cold out there though. I am sorry if I missed hanging out with anyone last night (walter), I decided to stay in bed and try to get over the cold. It really is no big deal, it could be soooo much worse. The last time I was sick, was strangely, last Christmas! I might be hanging out with my good friend later on tonight. My horoscope says that this Christmas eve should be very good for my romantic life! Hopefully that means we'll run into some ladies! ehheh eh eh he he h heh e. That's better than the alternative! Matt

no worries

Hello people. Brandon and I checked out a recording studio last night. It was very cool. Then we went to Tim Hortons and got a little something to drink. After that, I spied on all the bands who recorded at GBS studios by watching their videos. Right now I think I may be getting sick. I have been doing a lot of running around lately. Today I set up my guitar amp in the garage and practiced. It was cold. Sometimes I just don't know what to do with myself! I hope everyone has a merry Christmas! I will most likely be going over to my grandmothers Christmas day. That means no smoking cigarettes. Lately the urge has been down anyways, I think I may have gotten sick from sharing a cigarrette with someone. No worries though, it hasn't gotten too bad yet! heheh eh.  matt

COOL show TONIGHT!

Hello people, I am getting ready to see the wonderful band, Hit Society at the Blind Pig! It is only 3 bucks, which is a hell of a deal for that venue! Some of you guys may have noticed a track I posted this morning on soundcloud. It is a track called move on. I am still working on the lyrics. That song was originally played with a live drummer and heavy bass distortion ala' Larry Graham. He's one of my heros you know! I am very much looking to seeing the band! --matt

EarthQUAKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Hey people who love the best music in the world! Earthquake is the BEST SONG IN THE WORLD  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZQCij721jQ I know this because I have been using it to work out to and get out my bottled up agression!!!!!!!!! Most of you wimps wont even get to the singing in the song cause you were raised on stupid shit (code for listen to the whole thing or don't bother clicking this link at all) Today at the tap room I saw some stupid motherfucker with his hand on some girls butt like she was his property, what a fucking cocksucker. I listen to this song and imagine beating his fucking well dressed ass while I lift weights. fuck that cocksucker. he was probably like "she mine, I am a coksucker". so shitty I am posting a flame to prove a point, so many people project fakeness and care so much about their online presence, but aren't really nice in the real world. I work on myself in the real world, so exscuse me if I want to have my own little corner of

Babber mouth drunks!

Hello people! I still want to remind everyone about the Christmas show this Saturday! This is going to be a very busy week for dear old Matty! I will most likely going to be attending a party this Friday! Avery special double Birthday party! Holy crap! Well it has been a while since the last update. Thank God the computer room doesn't smell like poop anymore. I casually mentioned it to our waitress at JRs tonight, and my mom informed me it was very rude. I apologize. I only had one beer you know, but I guess light weights like me aren't very good drunks. Last night my sister (she's the loser with the keytar)  had a flat tire in Dundee! I used that as an excuse to head to one of my favorite bars, Thirstys and to pester the owner into letting my group play there! Plus I talked to a waitress about certain gossip that only people in my tight inner circle (like Mark Boone) knows about. I can't help but be a blabber mouth when I drink! Well people, thanks for visiting my

Christmas Spectacular Show--- december 17th

Image
Hello people, Last night's gig went very well indeed. I was tempted to do a doogie Howser and blog about it when I finally got home around 4 am (I got lost). Avery nice gentleman named Dean bought the whole Bad Mics band, two rounds of drinks, and a very fine gentleman named James bought me one as well. So, I didn't exactly stick to the no alcohol plan I outlined hours before the gig. I am sorry if I disapointed you. Unfortunatley I have to alert everyone to some bad news. As you know, my cat phoofie wasn't invited to perform at the Mods in Toyland Christmas Spectacular on December 17th. He was so dissapointed that he took a shit in the computer room, and I have been looking for the shit for days, but I can't find it. I have a scented candle burning right now. His act was tiled, "Happy Holidays from Phoofie the Kristmas Kat!", but the organizer of the event, Marke Boone was a regular old scrooge and wouldn't let him perform. You can still check out the

SHOW 2NIGHT!!

Well people, thankyou for reading this! I am finishing up some last minute things before I head out the door to the show! I have to be there at 8pm, we actually play at 10:30. I will use the time there to meditate and visualize success. I still have to gather up some equiptment. I am glad I found the time to shower though! Today was a busy day so far, and the show hasn't even started yet! It's too bad I don't have anymore cds to sell. I accidentally gave most of them away. heheh ehe he. I really wish I had some diet coke. Would you believe that all of the diet soda is gone, and we just bought 5 2liters last night? I will have to overpay for a 1 liter at the stupid gas station now. What a pain in my ass!!!!!!!! I will not be drinking beer tonight. I don't want to worry about driving home. I have an extremely low tolerance when it comes to alcohol. Plus, beer is a tad exspensive. I better hit up the grocery store for a nice, cold 2 liter of diet coke/pepsi! I hope the r
