Sleep

or so much a lack of it, i seem to have forgotten how to sleep during these past few weeks, i eman here i am at 3am listening to Kevin Devine , scanning through anything i can find on the internet, i have to be up in three hours... THREE HOURS!

i don't complain though, tomorrow is going to be so much fun, i have managed to find an i.d in Steve's, convince the bouncers in 22, and its all gooooood! so i hope, i hope, oh dear God i hope.

I thinking of picking up the acoustic guitar again this summer, i miss the solitude of doing things solo, well it wasn't really solitude as i have stefan behind me, hitting various percussion things, but i miss the rawness of acoustic, expect me singing alot of songs this summer. I have alot of things to sing about, its been a big year!.

And funnily enough it seems i'm back where i was two years ago, and honestly,
i have no problem with that at all :)
who really makes progress anyways ?!

this is Tom, still loving life, and can't wait to see Brand New tomorrow!

"have faith" as a increasingly good friend told me today

!Mystery

As much as I hate to play all secretive, there are some deadly secrets spawning around at this point in time, i dot feel guilty because its well deserved, life starts now, and stress ends about now too.

Onto making this worth living.
Expect a bang x

To some up current events

i went back to school on monday and have found that three of my four subjects are basically in productivity limbo for the next four weeks, yet i have to go in as im poor and i need that £30 EMA money, woe is me...

I've also come to the conclusion that i would gladly cut out this next year of my life and head straight to Uni, Band, whatever, i can't be bothered to sit through the monotony that has become Stanborough sixth form, in fact general 6th form life, i hate three of my four subjects, and i'm gravely disappointed in the other.

On the plus side, i have been ultra productive, cutting it fine with writing new songs, set is almost done, time to practice and its about that time where i get to play "That Guy" the "Pushy, nagging, focus on the band because he blatantly has nothing else in his life and no prospects blah blah blah" i get to play that guy for the next month. Fun Times.


Introducing the topic that has literally been haunting me since discovering, im going to a party on friday with basically everyone from my old school year group, i left in year 9 and have not spoken to anyone since, bar a few. I have o idea what they think of me now or will think of me and i'm nervous beyond belief. I feel like its my first day at a new school, which is so ironic its ridiculous.

This week i received some really nice recognition, which has given a well needed measure of hope. On many occasions i reassured myself that the past should definitely stay dead, and that i have great friends lurking where i didn't expect.

And found enough time to say FUCKING READING 09! FUCKING TOUR!

i hate life...
i love life.

When your heart is an empty room

I could honestly sit in this spot and listen to Death Cab for eternity.

Tonight i put £5 on my book shelf, to start saving for a trip to japan, im determined for this to happen, it will happen.

The 8 year old boy will be too happy. x


Writing

I'm writing from a the lab with a pen and a pad,

the new songs are sounding amazing, i'm so happy with them, we've one down a much more Pop Punk route, its a very stateside sound, really slick (i'm not putting on the accent or anything like that before you query, I HATE THAT SHIT)

I've been listening to my favorite bands that got me into pop punk, and so there's influences from bands like the starting line, new found glory and then its polished with the new genre from bands like hit the lights, cute and mayday, basically its exactly where i want to be writing at this current point :)

We wrote a fair few new songs as a band since the demos went up and they have all been scrapped, chasing the UK pop punk scene isn't really what suits this band, we don't suit the ADTR style break downs, don't suit the gang shouts, the heavy edge, were more a gang sing along vibe :)
we wanna make you dance, sing and have a good time,

and i hope thats exactly what you'll be doing on tour!.

As for now im just chilling having finally finnished my exams, i've gone through alot of personal changes this month and while im still getting to grips with it, im positive as fuck.

Bring on summer,
Tour,
Iphone software 3.0 (which will enable me to take my laptop on tour and blog every day from the van!)

HYPE! xx
