Journal of a Dog

Oh come child
Come and rescue me
'Cause you have seen some
Unbelievable things

Get me out of this place. I need to be back on the road.

Update coming soon

So since my last entry, I've been to a couple of shows, in state and out of state. Went to Wilkes Barre and hung out with the WB Pound/Lost Boys. Good seeing Ned, Ben, Saba, Shane, Jamie, Dan, Alex and Rifkin. New Bad Seed song is hard. New Title Fight 7'' is going to rule.

Backtrack had their record release. Like 30 people in Dog Pound shirts moshing. Hard. Good show. Got a couple of dives in. Mind Piece played a scab set last night. Band either needs to get back together or do more scab sets.

I love sweet sauce pizza.

I finally started taking pictures again. Here's one.

I'm fucking up.

My hair has gotten too long. Can't wait to cut it after Halloween.

I've gone too long without a significant other. Ladies, change that please.

4 stitches and a hole in my head. Yeahhhhhhh.

I had 4 cups of coffee Monday morning

I just slept for 15 hours

My life is spiraling out of control hahaha

I start classes tomorrow. Definitely stoked.

SIKE. I want nothing to do with school anymore. God fuckign damn it.

I think I broke my wrist

Pat Stankard is currently sleeping in my bed.

Yeahhhhh

I think I'm going to see a doctor soon about my insomnia. I can't fall asleep before 10am anymore, and when I do fall asleep I only get a chance to take a 3 hour nap. This is fucking ridiculous. Fix me. Fix my head.

On a high note, issue 2 of Miles to Go Fanzine is out.

OH FUCK YEAH

Just got the new Violation and new Ceremony.

New Violation is a rager. Constant headbanging

New Ceremony is going to be in the top 5 albums of 08 without a doubt. Blows away Violence Violence in my opinion

This is the earliest I've been awake in such a long time, and I'm loving it. The Have Heart/Verse show on Saturday was really cool. New venue, WITH A STAGE?! Lord of mercy. Tons of dives, and they're letting Ronie do more shows there. So sick. The pool party afterward was ridiculous, it was like a lagoon in the depths of Suffolk county. Me, Pat, Dan and Aaron clowning on kids that were on E the entire night. so funny. The show Sunday was sweet too. Backtrack is quickly becoming the best band on this island. Capital is always good, but even better when they cover Burn and Descendents. Pool party at Chris Smith's afterward was nuts. Pool mosh, innertube wars, slides and dives. Into it.

- Short End played our first show on Friday. Kids moshed. It ruled. Backtrack got an insane reaction. LIHC is on an upswing right now and it's awesome.
- We're gonna record a demo hopefully in the next couple of weeks. It'll be hard, I promise you.
- The new Cold World album is slowly growing on me. At first I hated all of it besides 2 songs, now I'm up to liking 6 out of 14 songs. The new Trash Talk lp however is the meanest thing I've heard in a while. Albini's producing is great on it.
- Issue 2 of Miles To Go Fanzine is pretty much done. I just got to review records and layout a couple of things. Trying to get it out for the Have Heart show Saturday.

Have you ever tried to tell someone something, but just couldn't bring yourself to do it? I feel like this has been happening to me a lot lately. God damn it.

I had work yesterday, for the first time in my entire life. It went pretty damn well. I opened and closed, wuzzuuppppp.

After that I headed to LI for my cousin's graduation party, then headed out to Suffolk with Drew to chill with Dan, Aaron, Ronie, Hernik and Ricky. Later on met up with Vitalo, went in his pool for a while, had some chaos and ate some damn good stuffed shells.

Pat Benatar still rules

Iron Boots last show was cool

there was a dog on the interstate

Madball tomorrow

I just finished watching Ghost.

Only one person is going to understand this post

Tomorrow (technically today) is my last day of school. Summer vacation baby.

2 dollar falafels rule my world.
Mango anything rules my world (Jah bless Flurt and Jamba Juice)
Leeway - Enforcer has the hardest riff ever
