I think an important part of being in any kind of metal band is remembering that metal is bad.

Wild that there’s a whole industry of ‘booking agents’ who’s job it is to email about booking bands and a whole industry of ‘events promoters’ who’s job it is to say “ok”, and then nobody does anything unless prompted and people charge to send emails The Music Industry is fucking leprous isn’t it.
Can I just make a sofa? Can I just screw some bits of wood together into a sofa shape and put cushions on? Does that work?
here's a full pair of sketchbook pages for you, please enjoy these fun drawings, show people, learn to enjoy the down time, relax, listen to yourself breathe, wear a helmet
Got a new spot completely sorted out and moving stuff underway - horrors of rental industry dealt with for the foreseeable and better environment on the horizon etc etc. So what I’ve decided to do is get paralysingly anxious about another thing and sit on the sofa not sorting anything instead.

The fawning response to Black Sabbath’s umpteenth farewell and the associated legacy act bonanza this weekend really shows how rock/metal’s decline as a popular genre has been sublimated into ancestor worship and nostalgia by the fans
Preaching to the choir here but the entire rental industry is run by wildly incompetent parasites.
A particularly ominous one from nice man Wárs.

See, you can buy physical objects (not that tape though, that was the last one) off me in person if you like and I can make myself not socially weird for the duration of the interaction.
Had a lovely time at The Cube and saw lots of mates and heard lots of sounds. Had a less lovely time pissing petrol down maybe 15 miles of the A1M, pushing the car into a services and Macgyvering a patch on the fuel line. Shout out to maintenance people with google and a cupboard of bits and bobs.

When I am eating eight hotdogs I now say ‘we’re all having hotdogs lads’ and give the lads their meat sticks treats and I live very much on my own.
