dudes

-the s.a. guys are just intensely interesting. I'm convinced Yudai is a 70-year old time traveler from the past and Junro is part gnome.

-Mine and Baku of Aaddies mentioned me extensively in their MC (°□°;)

-Nogod and us are way tight. Dancho said something early on and Shiun took mock offense to it so Shinno has a picture of Dancho dogeza-ing to CPS.

Dudes who don't play in flashy colorful mainstream vk bands are way cool and by extension I like this kind of music more.


DID I MENTION I RODE AN ELEVATOR WITH SHOKOTAN.

Gozaimasu.

Today's the last one of the tour.

I just wanna thank everyone for your kind and sound words of support, advice, and encouragement, and that whether I continue with music or not, it's okay.

In the meantime, however, I shall continue to bring sufficient quotients of rock and adequate portions of roll.

Osaka

7 comments

Been super busy EVALUATING MY LIFE AND PURPOSE so it's been difficult to write.

On the way to Osaka for the next part of the tour. Stayin' in a hotel. Shiun's drivin'.


Quick thoughts:

-new year show
we were bad. crowd was great, even though we were playing an away game, as we are not undercode material.

-nagoya
getting better.


Things need to improve. Lots of work to do, though increasingly I find myself fantasizing about settling down for a normal life.

BUT WHO CARES NOW, cuz brb gonna stomp osaka in da face :)

Nogod is fantastic as usual, and the rest of the bands are quite nice. Sex Android in particular has that SOUND, just that right mix of guitar tone and drum power needed to make the simple songs transcend.

Our new flyer looks neat; will snap that soon.

Went into the studio w/Joe to test out various new gear we have acquired.

On the left is my new Fender Jazz bass, which seems to fit well with ChemiPi songs in general. I still use the 5 of course.

On the right is Joe's gift to me, a fretless bass. What a sound! Wish I had this when recording the g. solo section in Praparat! Still, I see myself using it in spots on future recordings.

First off, one week late Happy New Year! Live report when I get home.

Yesterday saw Shiun's last live with MiU.


Saw this Resident Evil guy at Tea Water ("Ochanomizu" in Clever Japanese-speaking American parlance) and immediately wondered where I misplaced my Autobot t-shirt, because I am clearly five years old.
