what an eventful period... Too eventful to properly blog I'll do my darndest. The 24 hour film marathon was a failure in the sense that we didn't have a proper story and didn't get it in on time so weren't eligible for the contest. This sucks. It's probably my fault that we didn't get it in on time. #1 because we didn't have a story, and I should have made sure we did, and #2 because in thr crunch time I could have put more pressure to get it out with enough time to make the drive to hollywood. On the other hand, there our theme was pathetic (upstairs) and there was no way it could have been cut decently in time. Hell, our too-late cut was rougher than dirt. But we did end up with a completed project despite amazing adversity and time constraints. Mad thanks go out to Jeremie and John, who made it all possible, Allie, Ryan, who helped all the way through the deadline, and John Ryan, who really did some kick ass acting and was just funny as hell all day. Others helped out too, like Russ and Terra. thanks. I don't wanna thank god at all, she didn't do shit for it. In fact I'm pretty sure she was trying to stop the whole thing from happening. well too bad cus ill be psoting it online here in just a couple weeks. Sunday I played with terra and katie and chris.... the new band. It was awesome. We'll be rehersing every friday and sunday. We practiced at one of those places where the drums and amps and pa and mics are all there and its really nice and affordable. $18 per hour. We played "get back" and "girlfriend" (matthew sweet) and goofed a bit and messed with some of Katie's originals. Katie is a really solid guitarist and terra can fucking play drums! It is so fucking awesome i can't even communicate. I bought myself a cheap fender practice amp (frontman g15 series II) to practice at home. I actually have a guitar amp again! Even if it is a $65 one. monday night the four of us (the band) went and sang karaoke at the dume room. it was awesome. chis with guns and roses, terra dueting with everyone, katie drinking everyone's drinks. It was utter rock n roll. I got drunk, I got sick, i got to work late. Good times!
