A couple quick things. You know, it's okay to watch my Youtube videos or listen to my purevolume music, Accolades, more than once. I wouldn't be angry.
Also, again, I would not be angry if people commented on my blogs a bit more. I figure someone thinks something about some subject that I write about...
Onto some more interesting things, maybe. If you didn't know, my family has never had cable tv. I have always just had the basic fox, cbs, nbc, pbs, abc setup. The month that I am set to leave for college my family decides to get Dish. I am trying to decide if they are trying to fill the whole that will open when I depart for Fox, or if they just wanted to watch the new season of Jersey Shore. Don't get me started on what I think about the people on that show making millions.
On other notes, I have been playing guitar some more recently. I don't especially like the style of a lot of the songs I write, they just seem kind of plain, so I am trying to get a little different sound going. I haven't tried writing many lyrics to this stuff yet, so we will see what comes of it.
As much as I feel like I should put some more original music out there, I got an idea for another cover today. I haven't run it by many people yet, and it would definitely employ victors talents, but I think the end result would be appreciated. Mostly by 2010 Liberty basketball players... So you might have to wait and see what that will be as well.
Oh and I want to play some more drums. I have had like 3 drum lessons, so I suck, but I just want to work on it some. I'd like to get acceptable at it. Not even good, just acceptable, so I could have some fun and maybe lay down a track or two in the future if needed. Very few of you have any idea how dumb it is to just look through drum tracks on Garage Band to find something that is "sort of close" to what you want.
I should probably start reading some more. I have been listening to some good stuff, but I have a good list of books I would like to get to reading, and at this pace I will never read them. Maybe I should wake up earlier or something, because I cannot read very late at night or I just end up going to sleep.
Eh, I'll just get back to the music theme for a bit. I am sick of the music at the club. Like more so than usual. Dang you Victor for bringing up rock music dying, I already knew that the pop-ish music they play at the club was dead musically, but I suddenly became more cognizant of it. Why would you write a song that doesn't mean anything?? No one cares that you are always "up in the club," or that you grabbed someone sexy and told them hey. That's what "someone sexy" was at the club for anyway. So it really wasn't an accomplishment, so why write about it?? If the whole point of your song is to write about a daily event, or to tell people how cool you are, don't write the song. Lyrics are supposed to be an art, like poetry or something, so use pictures, something of deep meaning to you, emotions, I don't care if it's about a girl or politics, but let the song be creative, lyrically and instrumentally, and let it mean something to you. I don't understand why that is so hard.
Hey man those rap songs mean a lot to the artists.
ReplyDelete"It was just this one time, man. I was in the club, like usual, except this time I grabbed someone sexy and told them 'hey.' This really stuck out to me; I'll remember it forever because usually when I grab someone sexy, I say ''sup.'"
