so in almost three months i will be moving to atlanta. well, not actually atlanta, but in that area. im extremely anxious to move and to get to work. i figured the closer the date got the more doubts i'd have, but oddly its been the opposite. at first i committed and i got really sad at the idea that i wouldnt be able to come home whenever i pleased. however, since ive committed ive realized how much i really need to move on and get away. i need to get away and so that if i fail im not able to fall back on loved ones so much and hopefully that will make success that much more exciting. i wont be able to rely on my family to bail me out. crazy huh? point is, i think me moving will make me work harder and appreciate my life more. im moving to play music full time, and i really feel like something big is going to happen. maybe its spiritually? artistically? financially? who knows. i do know that im in a situation that i would normally either not do, or be seriously reconsidering. for some reason i have such a calm feeling about it all. i know this is what im meant to do. its pretty nice to finally feel that again. plus its only like an eight hour drive to see the red sox during spring training.

its the weirdest feeling to have to stay up until you're about to pass out every night. its the only way i can fall asleep now. it'll be great to stop working two jobs. especially with strange hours. im fine....im fine...

one of the few bad things about moving is the 10 hour drive alone it will take to get there. im really bad at staying awake at the wheel for whatever reason. i cant concentrate on driving. it'll be better when i come back in may and april comes with me, but that first drive is going to be killer.

i rented a bunch of movies last week and thought i'd quickly share some recommendations/thoughts...
so go watch:

-school of rock : makes me want to watch spinal tap for whatever reason.
-tales from the crypt: season one
-fire in the sky : april told me it was good, i didnt believe her....needless to say she keeps reminding me that she was right

we also watched rize, which is a documentary done by david la chapelle on the krump/clowning dance scene. the actual dancing was amazing. they actually noted in the beginning that they didnt speed the film up just so you know its real. trust me, it looks sped up, the dancing is that insane. i thought they kinda missed some social and political dots they could have connected to really make the documentary really great. kinda like what hoop dreams does. seriously though, the dancing is crazy. plus, they are dressed up as clowns when they do it, and thats sweet.

oh my gosh, i want to blow my head off everytime i hear that avenged sevenfold song.
how do bands like them and hawthorne heights get exposure/signed/noticed/anything.
there are lots of bands i dont like but i can say that they are good at what they do, but neither of those bands are anywhere close to that. if those bands came around in the 90's there is no way they would have been popular. which brings me to my biggest point: the early 90's were sweet.

the singer from relient k is a really good songwriter i think, and i dont care who knows it. see....thats one of those bands i dont really like but i can admit they are great at what they do. im really only a hypocrite about half of the time. maybe less.
