had a great band rehearsal yesterday, and heard one of our new songs with vocals for the first time, and i'm completely awestruck what she did with that song.

Axe Fx rocked up at my house after it was shipped by USPS (express mail international, 3/5 days - $110)
shipped on the 18th jan then no updates!
Got my money back for shipping.

Also been writing a shitload of music after a good month or so of writers block.

DanLights · February 3rd, 2011, 07:56 AM

Old man's not dead yet, feeling a bit better actually

I took down my old Fender Twin Reverb from the attic. It has been standing there for half a year as I've been abroad and busy with other stuff. One of the tubes broke last time I used it, so it has only had three output tubes in it. So I opened it up and removed all the dust, removed one of the output tubes(so it's running two), disconnected one speaker and I now have a fully operational Twin Reverb again

I'm ordering new output tubes for my Triple Recto tonight as well!

got an offer to play drums in a band that has great potential and they even gave me $1300 worth of cymbals

and the fact that i dont have to go to fucking high school any more haha

colonel kurtz · February 3rd, 2011, 11:16 PM

getting an almost $2k tax return, where last year i had to pay $400. i would've been happy to break even, so this is super sweet. i'm also getting a $3k work bonus on the 14th, and another of close to $6k a couple weeks later!

sopulurn · February 3rd, 2011, 11:55 PM

spent the whole night making music. Haven't slept for a minute and I feel great

Jarkko Mattheiszen · February 12th, 2011, 07:28 AM

I'm finally building some cover panels for the superchunks, so my new mixing room will be cosmetically almost finished today, sans the new desk which I can't afford quite yet.

DeclanWhite · February 12th, 2011, 07:39 AM

i got my drivers licence

Ermz · February 12th, 2011, 08:14 AM

Recorded probably the best drum kit of my life - an early 90's Sonor HiLite.

Chris_P_Critter · February 12th, 2011, 08:29 AM

Going back to school in a few weeks.

StefTD · February 12th, 2011, 08:42 AM

10 hours without vomiting (having a gastric flu atm).

StefTD · February 14th, 2011, 02:09 AM

Just got invited to a job interview (chances to get the job are like 80% if you get the interview)
would be pretty cool to get that opportunity.

Chris_P_Critter · February 14th, 2011, 06:28 AM

^ good luck dude.

Coffee is my joy of the day. Whoever decided to roast coffee beans, and then pour hot water over them to make a drink was a god damn genius.

DeclanWhite · February 14th, 2011, 08:48 AM

Got to record the best drum kit of my life today funnily enough, 00's Pearl Masters. Not quite up there with the sonor, but still awesome!

StefTD · June 13th, 2011, 02:51 PM

Just finished the last sentence of diploma thesis!!!
Have to look on a few things, but I checked it a few times with some guys that know their shit,
seems to be ok, going to get it printed on friday, sooooo glad that I actually finished writing it!

Virgil. · June 13th, 2011, 02:55 PM

I'm in sales, and I just got in a large enough sale to help me fund my 5150/6505 GAS soon.

Clockwork · June 13th, 2011, 03:33 PM

Just shot scenes for a music video, I so excited.

LeSedna · June 13th, 2011, 03:44 PM

-Just received my Ryanair contract as a pilot to sign and send them back.
-I'm dating since yesterday quite an awesome girl, and she's also very hot, hope it will work, we'll see

Felix Neumann · June 13th, 2011, 04:22 PM

Getting my new proggy ballad finished...bämm!! Feel free to click on my Machines & Madness sig

jipchen · June 13th, 2011, 04:49 PM

- last band practice went very good, they all are cool guys (just the third rehearsal so far), and my liveroom is nearly soundproof to the outside
-> We won't have to pay a shitload or carry a shitload of equipment to a rehearsal space but practice in the studio

- I took two days off from building the studio and just chilled the fuck out. It was awesome

Haha oh come on, saying "I'm a pilot" will make her panties drop so hard there'd be a hole in the floor halfway to China (awesome HIMYM quote)

LeSedna · June 13th, 2011, 05:41 PM

-1, the usual girl reaction is : "you have to relocate in another country and we won't see a lot" or are afraid of the fact I'm gonna work with hotties !

but +1 to the awesomeness of the quote !
