I never thought i'd end up in this situation. I've seen it happen to so many people but I always said "that's not gonna be me".
I'm pretty much terrified but all I can do is wait really. This is gonna be a long day...

Man, so many shitty things happened in 2007.
But I met the girl of my dreams and now we live happily ever after... almost.
2008... I dunno, it's gonna be alot of the same shit, but i'm making my mark on the world this year.

Why does nothing ever work out for me? Why do I have to work so hard and run myself down and constantly be sick, and stressed?
I can't take it anymore. Something's gotta go. It's the hardest decision i've ever had to make. I don't want to give up music. I love it. It's the one thing that's made me happy for so long but what's the point of playing in a band if you're doing 80% of the work while everyone else sits back and waits for success. I know i'm never gonna make it. I'll never be in a touring band. I'm 21 playing with kids just out of high school (and still in it). I'm the only one with a steady income. I'm the only one with the balls to give up everything to do this. It should be so easy to walk away from something this trivial... but I can't.
Meanwhile, I fix my schedule around it. Working at 6 am with shitty fucking people in order to pay my bills. I coulda made something of myself by now, but no, I chased after some stupid dream that I shoulda lost interest in 5 years ago.
Fuck this.

The Bled-Three's Away |
] |
Life's finally falling into place... gradually at least.
I got an opportunity to work as a Graphic Design Assistant at UB's art department. A chance to get my foot in the door. Just hoping the interview goes well. I'm getting the fuck out of that shithole Tim Horton's. That company is a fucking cult I swear...
I'm also finally in a somewhat stable band, that's goal oriented in a good way. Instead of trying to become the next big thing or be discovered or whatever, we're just having fun with it. We're somewhat professional (just because of my previous experience in bands) but I don't let it go to my head. It's an outlet, and it's my favorite thing to do.
I met THE girl. You know? That girl you always hope you'll one day find. The girl you can talk to all nite about nothing or walk around Deleware Park quoting Family Guy with. : )
Yeah, i'm pretty happy at the moment.

I need to post more actual updates.
So yeah today i'm starting to feel like i'm trapped in my own life. It's kinda like the Truman show ya know? Same old routine cycling every week like i'm in some fucked up experiment. Nothing exciting ever happens. I'm also starting to feel like I have no real friends. I mean there's people I see and talk to from time to time, but I can't think of a single person who would ever be there for me when I needed them. At the same time, I think that's why i'm so independent. I consider myself responsible. I'm not saying life is all just work, work, pay your bills, support urself. That's a big part of it. But I hate getting ripped on, made fun of, because I decided that I don't like drinking. I'm sorry I don't wanna get trashed or stoned. I'm sorry my priorities are in order. And frankly, I don't even wanna know what I wanna do with the rest of my life. I know I love music. I love playing guitar, buying equipment and going to music stores. I can't even go to concerts anymore cause I can't stand the fucking "scene" kids anymore. I used to go to shows growing up where it was like, fuck yeah! Let's just have fun. Go crazy. Enjoy the music. No. Now it's "let's see who has the sluttiest gf, which guy looks most like a bitch. Let's dress the same, let's strip ourselves of individuality, let's pretend to be bad ass motherfuckers cause mommy and daddy ain't around". Fuck all this shit.
I need to break out of this.

I've been seeing and experiencing more than I can handle lately.
I'm glad I am who I am.
Plus, I have new goals laid ahead of me and i'm starting to realize why i'm on this earth.
Score.

OK so lately, i've been contemplating the situation in all our lives.
I seriously wish Heritage of a Hero didn't have to end.
Things are so different now. I miss K-rob and I miss Steve Karpik. This is total fucking bullshit. This all ended because of two people's petty differences. Yet they have so much in common. I wish we coulda made compromises and realized that we were best friends, we were like a second family. We shouldn't give a shit about past girlfriends or what people have said about us. We all worked hard, and played wherever we could, and busted our asses and emptied our wallets to get our music out there, To meet new people, to get ourselves somewhere and we got pretty damn far. I know it's almost impossible to just forgive and forget. In my life, i've had alot of people do and say shit to me that made me wanna grab a knife and slit their throats. It hurts and you just try to cut people off but lately I just see that, it's not worth it. Being angry, being pissed at people, it doesn't pay. It doesn't help. It just hurts.
I'll confess to being a two face and talking shit about some pretty damn amazing people behind their backs. Everyone in life has their flaws, their problems, "skeletons in the closet". It's because of this common trait that we can relate to one another.
I just want things the way they were. K-rob, Steve, Jeff, and Stevie, I love you dudes and want things back the way they were. Just look back on these past 6 months and all the stuff we've done. Pretty amazing huh? Pretty shitty it has to end this soon.
Just think about it.

All I wanna do is make music.
It's my creative outlet, my anti-drug, my stress reliever, whatever you wanna call it.
And it's been causing me more stress than anything.
It sucks people can't put shit behind them.
I hate having to pick a side.
This really truly sucks.

On another note, come to Fast Freddie's on Sunday to see my band play. It will make me happy.

List seven songs you are into right now, no matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your Live Journal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.
in no particular order:
1. LoveHateHero-She Puts the Ho Back In Homewrecker
2. Classic Case-Stalemate (Falling in Love)
3. Funeral for a Friend-Kiss and Makeup
4. Demitri Martin-Personal Information Waltz
5. Heavy Heavy Low Low-I Forgot 2 and a Half Days
6. LoveHateHero-Move On
7. Classic Case-Devil's Advocate
I tag.......... YOU!

So far this has become what I call "The weekend of truth"
And my personal advice, if things are cold with you and other people, now's the time to clear the air.
Life's too short for hating.
Not one single person on this earth is perfect, it's these little flaws that keep us in touch with one another and allow us to live in peace with each other.
I'm gonna go make noise with 4 other guys in Krob's basement...
and yes, it's exactly what you think.

So I wanna thank everyone who's cheered me up in some way, shape or form these past few days. I'm starting to realize having good friends and a second family (Jeff, Krob, Stevie and Jessie) is better than any girl.
As for now, i'm gonna get back on track. Tour is coming up quick. I might buy a new guitar. Who knows.
Class at 3, then practice till 9.
Peace.

Today is pretty much like Christmas for me.
I better see all of you at Fast Freddie's tonite!
Peace,

| Goodbye 2006 |
[31 Dec 2006|10:03pm] |
So 2006 has been one of the craziest years ever.
I made alot of changes in my life for the better.
I transferred to UB from Medaille although I spent all winter working full time at Tim Horton's and spent all spring working overnights which I can say, is the most horrible thing ever. However, i'm making good money and get along with everyone there. Although customers are complete fucktards, my co-workers are fun.
Me and my best friend Jeff managed to finally get our band up and going (The Theft) in March. We managed to get on to a giant Lancaster battle of the bands, only to be disqualified after 2 minutes, have the PA turned off, and be banned from playing in the school ever again. It was the most fun ever. We did another show in July just prior to recording an EP with our now good friends "Farside" aka Bill Wickham and John Angelo (currently playing in Like You) We unfortunately broke up in August, and I went on to join With Regards to Silence. While in WRTS, I got to open for A Change of Pace, Roses are Red and Showbread as well as meet some interesting people. We also recording another EP with Bill and John although it didn't go as smoothly as The Theft's did. After some problems, everyone quit the band but me and our guitarist Steve. After a week, we got the band back on it's feet and renamed it Heritage of a Hero. Jeff took over on drums and we went through a few lineup changes. We got great response at most of our shows. More recently we've sold out of cds at the last few shows and replaced Steve (who was doing vox) with our previous vocalist Jessie. Although it's been a bumpy ride, we're still holding strong and doing great. 2007 looks great for us. We already have most of January filled with shows and have the Spring Break Sick Burn Tour with Guns of Camden and Come the Dawn April 5th thru 15th. I can't wait. I love these guys and I love this band more than anything.
I haven't had much luck with girls in 2006. I was dating this girl Amanda back in winter for awhile. She was the sweetest girl on the planet, we just had different personalities and I just wasn't feeling it. I recently met this girl Alex at one of our shows who I thought was amazing, but once again, it hit me that it wasn't meant to be with her. We're still good friends though and i'm glad we are.
Lots of crazy times. Lots of shows. Lots of new people. Lots of laughter, tears, and loud noises.
Goodbye 2006. Hello 2007.
Happy New Year's guys.

[18 Dec 2006|03:39pm] |
First off, I have to kick myself in the nuts for opening my stupid mouth and ruining an awesome thing. I hope I can rectify this. Fuck.
Besides that, life is pretty good. Band is doing great. Tour next year. We're getting tons of shows, selling out of cds, this is definitely going somewhere. Jeff's looking into a van. I'm looking into a trailer. Planning on getting a custom cab made for myself in the near future. Music is treating me well.
Met this girl Alex. She's great. Unfortunately... (refer to paragraph 1)
Umm that's about it. Feel free to come to my shows or visit me at Timmy Ho's. That's pretty much all i'm doing right now since i'm on break from college.
