Ross

Not expecting many poeple to like these, no one ever likes my shizzle. AAAANYWAY pop-punk band straight outta Rochester, NY. Sounds like early Movielife but for this generation. Stand Tall is an excellent EP and Pedestals was recently made available online, if you catch my drift. For fans of Transit, Fireworks, The Movielife, Set Your Goals, etc. etc..

Well going to rip off a Paramore song in the future for some publicity and say it was mine first.

The only Paramore song it should be is For a Pessimist.

 

Going to request the shit out of Alive With the Glory of Love though.

I'm watching wrestling, trying to be a tough guy.

I remember you, welcome back!

At least we've seen Sweet Feet though. Add Taste into that bunch.

yeah i thought they were recording again already. i hope hayley says yes to a colab, but i have a feeling she won't.

 

anyway. they're playing a 20 song set for their december tour here. OOOH.

 

Hoping it's Blue Eyes Don't Lie 18 times. Then an encore of Save It For the Bedroom and Blue Eyes Don't Lie.

Oh Ross, the Wings? Really? Come on, I thought you were semi-cool.

 

Now replace that goofy flying wheel with a music note and you're back in the cool corner.

 

I was hoping you were an Islanders fan haha, they're like the only other team I actually like.

Yeah, this is pretty much the length I love my hair at.

 

 

 

 

Textbook.

I got it cut within the past three weeks! haha. You should've seen it before.

There's nothing saying you have to buy them anyway.

Although money's atypically the main driving force, not all re-releases are purely for the money. Quite a few releases (The Wonder Years' "Upsides" and You Me At Six's "Take Off Your Colours" to name but two) came after signing to a bigger label so as to increase the band's exposure on a grander scale/bigger marketing machine/introduce to more fans/wider markets, in theory leading to increased sales of future releases. Some re-releases (for example, anything re-released to include a successful non-album single) are pretty much money grabbing exercies. But not all re-releases are for the $$$$, though I'd admit a lot probably are.

Hate you all on holidays.

Don't think labels would be too happy discounting stock though haha.

Wings' regular season opener tomorrow, breaking out the jersey early. Though you can barely see it.

 

Will be attending a party. Will be trying to convince my friends to go as two and a half men. I'll be Alan.

 

HAHA WAIT, NOW WHO IS IT ROSS?

 

Probably still Scar-Johanzzz

TEAM UP, TEAM UP!

They are now my brother's favourite band. It saddens me that he knows next to nothing about him/them though.

This week was not my week for the whole "love life" place of my life.

 

1). I saw my creepy ex-boyfriend on Tuesday where I go to take guitar lessons. And it's possible he will be there every week now, right along with me. He always asks for us to get back together and says how beautiful I am, how smart and funny I am, and blah blah blah.

2). On Wednesday, the guy I'd been dating realized he still loves his ex-girlfriend and they got back together the next day (but I was wanting to be friends anyhow).

3). This girl keeps on flirting with me in a very creepy fashion and started getting more creepy on Thursday. I'm not homophobic by any stretch of the imagination, mind you. I don't like it when ANYBODY refuses to listen to me when I say, "No," or "Stop," and so on. She doesn't care and she continues to make me uncomfortable.

4). This creepy stalker dude I had last school year came to the school yesterday (Friday), wanting to see me. I've never sprinted around campus so much in my life. What was my last resort when he spotted me? My friend told me to sit on his lap. I was completely taken aback by this demand and I opposed it but he insisted and swore it'd work, that the stalker guy wouldn't come near me if he saw me sitting on his lap (considering stalker boy is only about, 5'3", 5'4" and my friend is roughly 6'2"). So I did it and STILL, he attempted to come over to me later on. My friend covered me as I walked to the front of the school and booked it.

4). I still might like this one, wonderful boy with whom I've absolutely no chance, I'm sure.

 

It's also not your week for numbering...

Kailey always looks like a different famous person every time I see her.

Brilliant interview, great read.

Been too busy listening to the new Valencia/YMAEWK albums to listen to this, heard disappointing things about it though. will listen this week. So stoked to see them next month though!
