Zong Righting

I don't really have anything to say. We have been writing songs recently, here is a picture of me during a songwriting session:


Some things worth noting from this picture:

1. I bought a new drum chair, or "throne" as it is called. It is dead comfy and in my spare time i just sit on it for fun.
2. I have a Nord lead 2. i bought it nearly four year ago and love it more than Reggae Reggae sauce. Not much more though.
3. Calvin, my housemate/friend/swound roadie is sat on my sofa playing GTA: Chinatown wars. He has a Jon Burgerman sticker on his DS. Burgerman is ace, check him out here - http://www.jonburgerman.com/
4. I need to do some washing up.
5. I have a Polysics sticker on the top of my nord. They are the greatest band in the world.
6. I would have opened my curtains but I am in fact a dirty grebo who sits in a dim room and listens to 3 inches of blood all day.


A.C. Slaters y'all.

The Kill List

This week has been pretty rad. We have an introducing feature in Kerrang where joe is getting struck by red lighting.. or something.

We also played a Club NME gig in Derby. I dont think we were indie enough for the people there, it was weird and most people left halfway through our first song.

I got well annoyed. Straight after we played, i started to pack my drums away because the headline band were using their own. Bearing in mind that i was well knackered and HOT.. The roadie for the headline band just comes on stage and starts moving all of my kit. Now I am not dead precious over my kit but its just pretty rude to come on and start moving all of my stuff without saying anything. He just grabbed everything and shoved it into this really small room behind the stage. THEN he tells us to move all of our equipment from the backstage room, the equipment that he had put there.

I then found out that the band had a half hour change over time, whilst we were moving our stuff into the van, he was outside smoking. why oh why did he need to rush so much? He has been added to the list. the kill list. So far y kill list looks like this:

1. The spider in the corner of my room
2. Daniel Fitzpatrick
3. Annoying Roadie

in other news, i really need to tidy my room. Gig in London tomorrow, think I am staying over night to get rad with all the scene kids down south.
