why don't you buy a gun and SHOOT HIM? ha!

This happened with many of my friends here. I'd still see em at school, but during weekends many of them just opted to hang out with their significant others, and didn't seem to step their foot outside their apartments. This obviously lead me to believe that dating makes people boring, but then again, I'm the one loitering at the same shithole pubs, getting drunk with the help of overpriced beer weekend after weekend. And I have no alternative to that.
Who's the boring wanker after all?

I'm 32.

Hmm..

There's gonna be some trouble
a whole house will need re-building
and everyone I love in the house
will recline on an analyst's couch quite soon
Your Father cracks a joke
and in the usual way
empties the room
Tell all of my friends
(I don't have too many
just some rain-coated lovers' brothers)
Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt
rush to danger
wind up nowhere
Patric Doonan-raised to wait
tired again-tried again, and
Now my heart is full
now my heart is full
and I just can't explain
So I won't even try to
Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt
Every jammy Stressford poet
Loafing oafs in all-night chemists
Loafing oafs in all-night chemists
underact-express depression
ah, but Bunnie I loved you
I was tired again
I tried again, and
Now my heart is full
Now my heart is full
and I just can't explain
so I won't even try to

...but then again

A bond of trust
Has been abused
Something of value
May be lost
Give up your job
Squander your cash - be rash
Just hold on to your friends
There are more than enough
To fight and oppose
Why waste good time
Fighting the people you like
Who will fall defending your name
Oh, don't feel so ashamed
To have friends
But now you only call me
When you're feeling depressed
When you feel happy I'm
So far from your mind
My patience is stretched
My loyalty vexed
Oh, you're losing all of your friends
Hold on to your friends
Hold on to your friends
Resist - or move on
Be mad, be rash
Smoke and explode
Sell all of your clothes
Just bear in mind :
Oh, there just might come a time
When you need some friends

er, but also..

The sanest days are mad
why don't you find out for yourself
then you'll see the price
very closely
some men here
they have a special interest
in your career
they wanna help you to grow
then syphon all your dough
why don't you find out for yourself
then you'll see the glass
hidden in the grass
you'll never believe me, so
why don't you find out for yourself
sick down to my heart
that's just the way it goes
some men here
they know the full extent of
your distress
they kneel and pray
and they say:
"long may it last"
why don't you find out for yourself
then you'll see the glass
hidden in the grass
bad scenes come and go
for which you must allow
sick down to my heart
that's just the way it goes
Don't rake up my mistakes
I know exactly what they are
and...what do YOU do?
well...you just SIT THERE
I've been stabbed in the back
so many many times
I don't have any skin
but that's just the way it goes


That's how I feel, at various moments.

There is nothing I want more than the interaction between myself and a few other musicians.

Sure, I absolutely see the logic in it, and I understand it. I'm not trying to Yoko-ize things. It's not about some 'bros before hoes' mentality or anything like that. But when you don't see your friend for a year and then he moves out of state and you don't know if you'll ever see him again. Well I know I felt a little bitter at the time. But we're cool now, he spends the night at my house sometimes twice a month.


Haha, I hear you. You and me both.

That's one thing, having a band is something else. I can respect anyone who's in a band, I just can't do it anymore.

so just jam with your friends and dont take it too seriously.

That is what we have been doing. Now he is too old for that since he got a new girlfriend. Straight up bullshit. What a waste of time.

you should have spread your legs for him, but no, you had to hold out, and now he left you

haha.

you need to stop making friends with lame fags

Some bands don't have that problem as the girlfriend is in the band! For example: Harriet Wheeler and David Gavurin from the Sundays; Robin Guthrie and Elizabeth Fraser from the Cocteau Twins; Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie from Siouxsie and the Banshees, and, of course, Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth.

Maybe you should be calling less attention to the girlfriend and more attention to the fact that someone you hang out with is lame enough and square enough to think that there is some kind of "age limit" to the validity of pursuing creative expression.

Is there anywhere online where you can hear what you guys played together? I could be great help to both you.

we were trying to get a full band going

translation: yr a tyrant and he'd rather spend time with a girl than listen to your narcissistic lambastings.

I see no problem with his behavior.

although, he'd be less of a pussy if he just told you to fuck off. unless, of course, you supply the drugs.

I think, in fairness, it's a bit rich calling him a friend when you're being an utter cunt to him on the internet. I've had people leave bands. I had people kick me out of bands. I wouldn't say they were 'pussies', just... well, whatever. Maybe that's the politest way he can find to say your music's ballsaggingly dull?

Could you all pretend my sentiment wasn't similar to space's? Thanks.

playing music is more fun with others included though....
