Trying to figure out what I need to do. I feel like I can see the path to a music career, but it's very difficult, and the pressure of the company continues to weigh on me a lot. I'm playing less video games than ever before (still a lot) but more and more times I find myself not trying to log on, there is just too much to do elsewhere, which I'm happy about, that's a good sign. I just started... » Continue Reading
In Florida with the family for a week. I have a show at Underground next month that I'm very excited about. Liv is going to Colorado this week and I'm writing a song about it, haha. Still not sure what's happening there but I love what we have. I've been getting so nostalgic for the past, you always want to be somewhere else but never want things to change. Writing music has changed and I'm fi... » Continue Reading
Had Scotchka rehearsal yesterday, getting extremely excited for summer. I've really felt my age the past year or so. I'm still young, but life seems to be moving faster and faster. The EP is a lot of fun to play, and all the songs are highly personal true stories. It's not the most fun to keep reliving the past, especially when the stories are usually regrets, but I know it will connect with p... » Continue Reading
Still have yet to record the scotchka EP, it gets annoying seeing a lot of bands play monthly while we wait and play in bursts. Summer should be exciting but getting there is proving annoying. Work has been ok, the property management side has been good but I feel like I need a change. I wake up in a panic that I'm late 5 days a week and that's not a great way to live. » Continue Reading
Difficult week. Drafted an apology letter to my ex from 5 years ago. Our first conversation was a drunken night on a roof, it's been difficult to find something that organic again. Ended because I was selfish, egotistical, and generally not a good person. I feel like I've grown a lot since, and I'm sad I couldn't have done that with her. Deciding to remain out of her life. Talking with a the... » Continue Reading
Went to Killington over the weekend with Kory, Fran, Bob, & Brendt. Got more into the glades than ever before. Next year I'm heading out west with my skis, friends, and Notorious. Found out I can do this Still writing for the EP. I had a song that it felt like the lyrics couldn't save, so the phrasing is being restructured. Nothing is coming out of the woodwork on this one so really just brute... » Continue Reading
Stussy is leading. I've been listening to the same like 100 songs for the past few weeks. I don't know how to write songs efficiently. I experience mind-altering, explosive euphoria when I complete a song, and feel worthless and unsalvageable when I'm still in the middle of making one. Getting older and learning to balance a full time job and scotchka. Lets see if we can do both. I mocked up ... » Continue Reading
It is my mothers birthday today. We are going to a vincent van gogh exhibition. I haven't felt right the past few weeks. The record has been extremely stressful, I always feel like I could be doing more. I feel a little behind, like everyone else knows what to do and I'm still trying to figure it out. I know this isn't completely the case, but I have definitely noticed tangible differences in ... » Continue Reading
