Now Playing: Impact is Imminent by Exodus
Nice! We are now spending 5 days straight of non-stop raining. I usually plan to make it a point to sleep the whole day or at least almost the whole day whenever it starts raining. And guess what... my friendly Mr. Sandman never came to visit me.
Well lets get a recap of what happened the past few days. To begin with... last Saturday the band received a band news. One of our guitar players decided to go on an indefinite hiatus because of personal issues. More on work related as what he said through a text message. Tough time to break the cookie though. We were planning to record our materials for our new demo hopefully out by end of 2009 but then again, shit happens. Let me give you some light on my thoughts here. It is really tough that he decided to leave... again. I mean when he returned back from overseas, we were excited to get that piston named Traces of War working again. Well, I guess that what makes playing here in the Philippines great. And news flash: we're not your preppy-money-making-band that you see on your local music channel. You get that bittersweet feeling of gaining some and losing some. I can say that we are pretty much used to it.
Last Sunday though, Me and my girl along with her cousin and nephew decided to go to Glorietta to see the infamous Jabbawockeez (oops let me consult Mr. Google to see proper spelling). My girlfriend is really amazed with this dance group and as evident... almost the entire nation is familiar with these modern age mimes. I was a bit surprised to see a large number of people that attended the event. Ideally, we were supposed to have a good time but we just tortured our legs standing up trying to see these guys dance (and for consolation we did, on the giant white screen set up by the production). Funny thing though, as usual here in our dear country; the rich and the famous got the last laugh as they got front row seats to see these guys. What sucks is we went early to Glorietta 5 to see the "meet and greet the Jabbawockeez" thing; mostly for my girlfriend's nephew who is a huge fan. And again, gold glittered. It seems the guys that was on the meet-and-greet line was already pre-arranged and based on their fine skin and dollar speaking lips, their moms and dads gave them that one way ticket to the event. Interesting what money can do aye?
For this week, well apart from watching tragedy strike our mainstream media and seeing politicians gun for the coveted popularity contest known to many as Election Day, I just spent my day working on a layout for an Ad to promote our band's first ever merchandise!!! tadadadadaaaa!!!
So for interested buyers just send in your orders here in The Pit! Ü
I also would like to tell you the highlight of my day: Watching that Seth Rogen Interview on Late Night with Conan O' Brien. It was kind of an awkward interview but I am a fan for both these guys so who cares! Their "natural" interview went for almost 45 minutes and Conan needs to crack a joke on how Seth Rogen is eating up the time of the next guest. Talking about means to get the message sent! hehehehe. I don't know but I like the Late Night with Conan O' Brien. It's like he is my comic soulmate. Just makes me laugh just by simply tuning in and I think after watching your local daily noontime show, try upgrading and watch something funny and witty. TRUST ME!!!
Also I recieved a bad news: Allen Iverson is planning to join the Memphis Grizzlies! For Christ's Sake A.I.!!! Save yourself! Just go to Minnesota or Charlotte where they need a player like you and you don't have to contend with other guys about taking shots. Apart from the fact that you don't stand a chance for survival on Memphis' current roster, you'll only make things worse for them. They already got a great line up with O.J. Mayo on the 2 position and with Rudy Gay on the 3 spot which obviously will fight for the right to be the next Kobe Bryant show in Memphis. They also have a beefed-up front court with Marc Gasol and defensive rookie powerhouse Hasheem Thabeet( kudos to Grizzlies management for picking him). Where will you be? Point Guard? Come on man! You want an answer? Detroit and Denver. Hope he'll reconsider. You're once an MVP and your rookie batchmates Kobe Bryant and Ray Allen already kissed the Larry O' Brian trophy and your going to end up in... Memphis?
And finally, it is our special 28th month! Running strong! Ily!
