      • a lot of resentment on both sides

        which exploded when I behaved like a massive wanker when I should have talked it all through sensibly.

  • nirvana cover

    luckily we decided against it for the school concert though.

    • We didn't!

      It was after the System Of A Down cover as well which made it seem even worse than it actually was. The very same day I performed the rock and roll act of tuning my guitar for five minutes in front of the whole school while the rest of the band were in the toilets vomiting due to nervousness. HELLO CLEVELAND

      Also another 'band' played at a holy communion. I suppose that does sound a bit metal. HOLY COMMUNION

  • in my old band

    we had a "google group" so we could all mail each other without hassle. and we also put everything (inc. personal things that would have prevented us from doing band things) on a google calendar. there was seven of us though, so it was pretty hard to organise everyone.

  • While we were recording our album at my friend's house

    three of the band were upstairs in the 'recording room', discussing vocal ideas, doing lots of different takes and making little noises here and there and generally making things sound great. One of us however couldn't be arsed with this because they wanted to watch High School Musical 2. Guess who that was?
