Ten points for whoever knows what song that's from.
Going to Leeds in the morning. Don't know why I thought the 9.44 train would be a good idea. Good company, cheap wine, rock and roll and grass always go down a treat though. The only slight concern is I get homesick, kinda. I'm fine at uni and whatever, I just miss having my own bed, whether its in Leicester or Derby, and all my home comforts.
I'm still pretty bummed out about the whole lack of productivity i've displayed this summer. When I'm at uni i do fuck loads of reading and get plenty of ideas for writing. Dunno where they all dissapear to when I come back home though. I think maybe my bedrooms too familiar for me to work in. I guess I've started playing guitar, but I reckon at uni I'll play it twice as much.
I was shaving the sides of my head today when my razor ran out of juice. It's so irritating, it does it every time. This results in me walking around for a couple of hours with one half of my head shaved and the other not, I look really special.
I'm still holding out hope for Uncle Axl to do a UK tour either this year or early next. I can't really afford Leeds Fest with it's 82.50 day tickets and GNR being the only band I want to see. Plus I dunno where I'd crash or anything. A show in Nottingham or Brum would be MUCH easier. I really would let that man do bad things to me.
Michale Graves hasn't released a new album for a while. I love his horror punk acousic vibe he has going on. His life consists of getting high and watching monster movies. And he used to be in the Misfits. And now he just hangs out with Marky Ramone. If a redneck stoner can have a life that good, then things are looking pretty rosy for me. I'd love to find another artist like him, who just cracks out the acoustic and sings about godzilla. Shame. He wrote my favourite song of all time too. Maybe I'll make a list of songs I like.
Saturday Night - The Misfits
Aforementioned Graves penned track. It's just so haunting and 50's and romantic. Especially the acoustic version. The whole songs about some guy who kills his girlfriend and then gets bummed out by it. As you would I guess. Thats my interpretation anyway, it's probably about some bad horror film I havent seen, as most Misfits songs are.
Same Ol' Situation - Motley Crue
The opening line, "She's got an alligator bag, top hat to match" is probably the funniest line in any song ever. I don't know why I like this song so much, its just so cheesy and all WOMEN ARE SHIT GET DRUNK. Not the right attitude to live life by, but still a fun song.
what else do I like? erm,
Breakdown - Guns N Roses
I have been in love with this song for like, 4 years. It's so gentle, not a ballad, or acoustic, but just a soft song about love. It's not as soppy as I just made it sound though. It's got such a great lead guitar line, and the lyrics are wicked, I especially like "funny how ev'rythin was roses when we held onto the guns" It has a very mature feel to it.
Love Gun - KISS
I think Sean William Scott summed it up best in Role Models when he says "You see, Ronnie, his *dick* is the gun!!
Im bored now.
