band

ironic how this site's tagline is "a space for friends" when i made this account to get away from them. not because i hate them, or anything. it's just easier to write my thoughts away into the abyss of clueless strangers...

anyway, i'm still not entirely sure what i want to write about here in the first place. a diary? poems? lyrics? i guess it doesn't matter, it's not like the spacehey police is going to land from their ufo and abduct me to turn into one of their own

idk why i wrote that

i guess i can talk about something that happened recently--i finally made (sort of) plans with some people to start a band together. after the first few tries (which was either me being ghosted or coming across 50 year old men,) it's nice to finally have all those nights of scrolling through craigslist worth it. hopefully they all come through and we can all meet up and jam or talk about music... or whatever, i have no idea how any of this works.

i'm pretty sure they're all way more experienced than i am, despite me only talking to one of them so far. but, i mean... this girl has literally performed at disneyland, like...? that's crazy. and the other two; all i know is they're super good at their instruments. man... i need to start practicing guitar more so i know more than just basic chords and the riff to my iron lung (which i probably already forgot.) all i have is a decent voice and songs i've written in my bedroom all alone... but i guess that's why i reached out in the first place.

i've always wanted to be in a band. i have always wanted to make music. if i can't do that, i don't wanna do anything else.

i hope things go well...

(but, if they don't, i'll try again and again until it does. or maybe do solo stuff for now. who knows.)
