I was asked if I am happy that my old band Seventh Story went on “indefinite hiatus” or went “bust”, quit, whatever. I’m going to summarize here and just say: No.

I was a part of that band in the beginning. I was part of it in the middle. I’m part of it in the end. Regardless of what anyone may think or say, I was still apart of that band when my tenure as drummer was up. I still am a part of it. I love that band. From the lowest roots Dylan and I grew and fertilized it with bullshit and tender loving care. A bassist turned vocalist, guitarist and second drummer came and went. Technically I was the second drummer. So the first one came and went.

From the demo of “Concrete Parachute” (a play on the name we would hold up for the next two “albums”.), to Asphalt Icarus, it was a group of close knit friends, doing nothing but having fun. We took it more serious and Dylan did vocals, Jess on bass, and myself on backing vocals with Jess and of course, drums. Then came HERE. The “Demo” or full “ep” or “album”. Named after the big yellow sign for the start of what was going to be what the band was ultimately known as, the parties.

Dylan and I did a stint on New Years Eve, just him and I. Taking shots, and giving tunes. Got to love memories. I love the band. It still exists in all our hearts, especially mine. I’m happy to have been a part of it, give the band the name that would be known throughout Madison, Bedford, Milton and beyond! I Have the logo graffiti tattooed on, along with plans for Warehouse 86. I don’t regret it one bit.

I remember coming in second at battle of the bands.

I remember the Sunday practices. We preached music as the good word and the bandroom was our pulpit.

I remember when we first started and I collapsed of exhaustion and Dylan started playing a diddy that became known as Eulogy.
I remember taking keys at the parties.
I remember refusing to give them back.
I remember playing the show where Dylan met Manwhich.

So much good has come from this…I’m sad, but I back my friends up to their fullest. Seventh Story is a name that shall live on in the infamy…

Seems we have an up and comer in the corner of NOT GIVE A FUCK CENTERAL! His name is kevin and this is his TAB. Take a look at his first post. Written on the back of a receipt while he sucked in the over cooked, under nourishing, engulfing breakfast. Like a pro.

Makes me proud to see someone standing up like myself and cutting lose. Welcome to the club Kevin. I promise I’ll be digging into the layout soon. I’ve been a lazy fucker, but even lazy fuckers get busy. http://thetab.theaxalon.com.

It was originally supposed to be “the tab was 13 dot com” but kevin decided to go a different route. I think he’s found his niche. Ripping things down while building other things up with over discriptiveness that may not even relate to the “rant”. Makes me proud as hell. I’m glad to have a fellow Bastard Lunatic out here with me.

A lot has been going on in my life. My Cards arrived in the mail today. BONUS. I got a nice little handheld system for the price of showing someone how to format windows. BONUS. Working on the jiggler computer. Not so, but yet BONUS. Need to cut the plate or loose it and/or get a glass bit. I’d like that idea. THen it’s mineral oil time!!!

I’ve been slacking on school and no…it’s not WoW. I’ve been busy trying to get the business going. I’m going for my A+ soon and the website should launch very soon. Got some outside help. If you wish to help develop the website for axalon studios there may be a spot for you. You have to be available atleast an hour a day to brainstorm and talk to us on and off just whenever you have an idea. I’m working on having a bonus for people online and need help discovering and discussing my prices and coupons. Any help would be appreciated it.

Outside of that….not a alot except the little things. Got Dad’s new workshirts with the logo for Smalley’s Automotive revamped. Got two shirts. 1 for myself and 1 for my brother. They’re pimping. There shall be pictures soon.

And seriously why even bother calling it cartoon network when you show this garbage. Adult Swim my ass. It’s like I found a log floating in a yellow cloud in my fucking pool. For fucks sake!!!1

So it’s been a while and this will probably be fairly short because it’s 14 minutes until 5am Sunday morning. I think I’ll change it up and bullet point it:

Just took some Advil Cold & Sinus because my sinuses are killing me.

Been diagnosed as manic depressive. (Bi-Polar).

First round of meds made me retain quite a bit of fluid in my feet, legs, lower back, wrists and fingers.

Taking a “water pill” to help rid me of that, while on the second try for meds for the manic depressive shit.

Trying to launch Axalon Studios.

The music station’s server had a melt down and killed itself. The backup drive as well.

The Show (Detuned) has been put on Hiatus until I can get my shit together.

Cleaning up and starting to wear more presentable clothes.

Need a Haircut.

Working on Kevin’s blog. (Well…getting the software installed the layout is the hard part.)

Working on Master Frank’s layout as well.

Need to go to bed.

Night!
