The fly in the ointment.

So remember that amp I was telling you about??  Here it is.

Mmmmmmmm..........
It needs a little work, but then, you wouldn't expect a 35-40 year old amp to be cherry.  125w of vintage, obnoxiously loud American power with 4 channels, spring reverb, and built in footswitchable vibrato.  I'll probably spend $30 just to make it look and sound a little better, but even still I got it for cheaper than you'd ever believe.  And I can't wait to hear what it's going to sound like connected to this...
Thunder.

...with the red coily cord (as Jack Black, aka, gearmandude might say).  And what will there be to compliment it, might you wonder??  Why, dear friend, just envision, if you will, this thing right here...
Lust.
...and what you get is a sonic explosion that frankly, words alone fall short on being able to describe.  This part of the blog is called "shameless self promotion".  We haven't recorded a single song yet, but the sound is finally coming together and we're firing on all cylinders.  Ultimately, it's noise that sounds kind of like this looks.

This one's too close to call...
But it makes you feel like this.

Simpler times.
But of course, you know, the whole endgame, the ultimate goal of the operation is to somehow seduce this woman.  (do not judge me)

That's Jenny Lewis again, if you hadn't noticed.
Can you tell I decided that my picture driven blog posts are better?  Hmm...  what if I combined pictures and sounds together??  Too much??  Anyway, I still haven't finished the angry music mixtape I'm working on.  I keep getting distracted by alcohol, video games, work, and pretty girls.  Can you honestly blame me?  I have learned that both Mastodon and the Kills are making new albums.  At least one of them is going to be good amazing.  Both of them will have awesome album covers.  I can almost guarantee this fact above all others.  I better finish this mixtape soon because I'm almost in too good of a mood to concentrate on angry music.  I'm seeing Best Coast and Wavves in about two weeks at the 40 Watt in Athens.  I've already got 3 days off work for the event.  Can you tell I'm fucking stoked??


If you aren't already jealous, you should be.  And you're clearly not subscribing to this blog yet.  Why not?  This shit is gold.  I love you guys.  You're alright.  No, I'm not drunk.

1000 internets to you if you get this Minus the Bear reference.

When you want me, you got me where you want me again.


Until next time, tiger.
