God, listening to nothing can sure get a LOT of songs in your head. I mean, currently I'm sitting downstairs in this small little room I'd like to call my basement lair. Not exactly a basement, but no apparent use other then computers occupy the room. Other than a dark wooden antique desk with two apple computers, one a monster-like being, the other my small solitary laptop. Wires intertwine from mysterious places between boxes on the floor, painting to be a portrait that would resemble tentacles. Various things cover the surface of this techno-monster, being my father's work notes, all scrawled in tiny, professional handwriting. Boring old calculator, two stray pieces of notes, a red important-looking folder, and even a napkin with instructions is penned. As for my stuff, you ask? Well, today that's really easy to cover. One stray red earring, my paint-covered yellow pick, a notebook/sketchpad filled with messily-written lines of improv poetry, blue flyswatter, all accompanied by my red guitar.
So, I'll stop going into deeps discriptions of things that REALLY don't matter, and go back to topic.
My music need is growing by day. By hour. By minute. Even by the seconds that you take to read this shit. I want more bands and so many more albums so badly that I just might go wack and shoot a pig or something-I don't know. Alright, so I have all of these bands that I'd love to get more of, you know, a complete album might be nice. Lately my only hope has been my music-engrossed friend sending me the few songs she can, and the internet. I've been meaning to join Rhapsody for a bit now, getting that whole 'Unlimited Tunes' thing or whatever. But I'm your everyday procrastinator, and all my cash just went to owing my friend twenty bucks because I accidentally jumped into a pond while her own twenty was in my pocket. Oops. Ehm, crap.
And, I'm not just a straight complainer, I've got a good amount of music in possession now, but I can't exactly fit it all onto my old 2 gig iPod. Oh well, looks like my iTunes better get ready for some serious music garage-band explosions. Cuz it will have to hold all this stuff in for a while. ;)
New songs being played on instrument:
Jane Says
Say It Ain't So
El Scorcho
I Summon You
I'll Follow You Into The Dark
By the way, if you find my music-geekiness-complaining interesting, please feel free to leave me any bands you think are awesome. I'll be sure to check them out, and write my ideas.
And a sweet sound it made
Raised on pradies, peanut shells and dirt
In a railroad cul-de-sac'
{Odalisque, The Decemberists}
