Dammit, after a Shellac-tastic past few weeks (I blame harpseal2), I really want a Travis Bean or Electrical Guitar Company bass. They sound so nasty and vicious, and they look so cool, being made from aluminium.

But I don't have £3000 to be spending on, well, anything, sadly. I need that shit for rent and commuting.

I really want to write something based off of this, but have no clue what to do at all. I've been trying to work something out for a few days now, but I got nothing, so who knows if it'll happen or not.

I hope it does.

That other one I posted about last time is being worked on. I don't know if I'll actually post it, though.
It's not done yet, anyway. I'll worry about it later.

I have an idea stewing away for something with the same sort of idea as cables. Not the song, but the 'writing a story around a song' part. Thing is, it's a sorta standard shippy boring sad-fic, at least, in my own opinion. Just one with a song.

Question is, is it worth doing? Is this something you guys would want?
Tell me what you think.

I can't come up with any ideas for those sort of things that aren't either sad or dark. Aren't I a cheery bastard.
I blame my music library.

Just an update of sorts I guess on things that have happened recently.

I'm considering writing something else similar to Cables. Song suggestions are welcome (they don't have to be Big Black songs, anything goes). I had been looking at the possibility of using 'Can't Stand Me Now' by The Libertines, and another song, but I forgot the second one.

Or, it arrived.

Sporting my 'true dat' LOSER cap

Get yr. Nirvana/Sonic Youth/Man Or Astro-Man?/OFF!/Eels on.

Just a quick thing on why all the chapters I post are so short.

It's just the way I work, I guess. Short chapters feel right to me. I have tried to do longer chapters, but I often find it makes the work grueling and less enjoyable, for me at least.

However, with this new story I keep mentioning but have yet to reveal, I am trying to make the chapters more substantial.
We'll see how it goes, I guess.

What do you guys think?

This probably doesn't matter to any of you in the slightest.

Earlier today in a discussion (sort of) with akarock and harpseal2, I realised that the majority of the time I spend on here actually has little to do with ponies, I'm mostly just talking to people, or as harpseal put it:

Seriously, I personally find this really fucking hilarious.

Apart from that, what else has happened recently.

I DID IT! I BOUGHT A HI-FLIER!
Should be here next week. Fucking hype.

Just some things.

1. Hahahahah, oh shit, the new Shellac album is actually coming out. Like, next week. Get hype.

2. I finished a song. Here, have a song. Tell me if it's shit or not, I'll only learn through stuff like that. Some time soon I should have a little 5 song EP ready.

3. I start at fancy music college next month, so that is also pretty hype too.

So I've got a few recordings together at the moment, still tinkering with them really, but they're in a state of between 1/2 or 3/4 finished. When they are all done, I'll post them here for your merriment I guess, as well as other places.

I've also been offered a spot opening for a local band, on the condition I actually get a band together. Fingers crossed.
