I got 4 gigs coming up. I haven't played one in like 2 months.

[CHOUT]

Kickass, Max! Please post video or audio of the gig. Sounds pretty insane compared to the places we play.

Haha cool pics (you too Max)! Someone have a phobia about playing keyboards less than 6 feet off the ground???

Never thought of it that way, but yeah, I'm usually on top of my amp, or whatever else there might be, and at this particular gig it took a ladder to get up on the stage, so I pulled the ladder up after me towards the end. Here I thought I was being all cool climbing around like Lux and Iggy...

[max]

man that's a killer ladder, you travelling with a van???

hey CHOUUUUT! i guess i'll upload a short clip of praise on youtube... video kinda sucks tho, little or no light and no audience shown... but you can hear them clap... and besides the friends, they mostly sucked balls.

[CHOUT]

Don't worry about the quality, Max. I just got a video card for my puter and am about to unleash the low-quality-video bootleg fury on youtube!

[max]

ultrakiller! we should be editing the SPLITTING OF THE I video ourselves, videoguy has no time... it'll be THE MESS.... did you btw hear SPLITTING OF THE I on myspace?????????

There are some video tapes of my first show with a nameless band when I was 18. This girl has them and needs to burn them for me, but she is in London. Yeah

The camera that I recorded a bit of the first Spectral Presence show with died.

We recorded a recent one, but the drum machine clipped it really bad.

I think I'm gonna have my friend and fellow bandmate from another band videotape my next performance or two.

I'm doing a show with a bunch of punk bands and I think I'm gonna play some sped up fuzzed out David Bowie covers plus a few originals. I think it is going to be fun. If it works. Who knows. I wanna record that. So then the internet chicks will be all upons me for covering Bowie.

neither do i; Facebook is superior. however, the only problem with Facebook is that you can't upload music. so, myspace is a necessary evil.

If you click on the part of my Sig that say MY BAND that goes to our My Space page, where we've got the sound.

Played two shows in three days. Not bad, considering they were our first two gigs. They were both well recieved but personally I thought the first one was really shaky.

[golden child]

i played a show two days ago. twas fun. i got some pics if anyone is interested. one of the dudes that played recorded it and his daughter filmed it. looking forward to seeing/hearing it.

Welcome back Golden Child.

Have you already played the gig with the same bill as Smegma yet? If so how did it go?

[golden child]

yeah it was awesome! they are putting out a dvd of collected footage, some guy i know filmed there set. i played right after them (they played first) and then quickly had to split. bummed i missed the other bands, gang wizard, shitty vibe smasher and some others played. there is a comp of the show that rules aswell.

My band Onani played two shows on saturday, the first one went really well. It was the first time I'd played trumpet live. It got shut down by the cops soon after we played then we hauled all our gear two bocks down the street(with some help) and played another.

Our second set was to a crowd of chin-scratchin electronic arts student and we played why more primitive as I lost an adaptor at the other venue. It was also planned to be more ygly to piss off the art fags.

He's a pic of the second set.

i'm just about to embark on a 12 week tour of hamlet (8 shows a week)

[CHOUT]

We're doing 4 U2 songs at a gig on st pats day...it was supposed to be a buncha bands, but it's only gonna be 3, so I guess we'll be playing a few of our own.

[max]

hey hey, played another one yesterday night... kinda surreal, around 70 people but ...kinda enthusiastic about it. sold a few cds, made some new friends, discovered the meaning of "stage hotness"...

a few pics here:

Sweet shots Max. If you and I didn't live so far, we would've played a show by now...
