Today was my first unemployed day of sheer boredom. It was fuckin horrible. I sat in the house all day doing pretty much nothing and I was sick to death. Theres only do much time you can spend browsing crap on the internet and watching the same Videos/DVDs over and over.
I got ready and headed over to the shop to get some Bread, Milk, Egg's and Cheese. I made a fried Egg Sarnie when I got back, Took the stickers off my hardcase and tried my best to get all the sticky remains off with nail polish remover.
5pm finally came and I headed round to Laffertys to meet him so we could walk to practice. When I arrived, India was there and she offered to give us a lift down to Morrisons. I felt really happy for her as she'd past her driving test today. (I really need to start my lessons). She seemed really confident on the road which was rad, although we did nearly crash at the Morrisons round about. She dropped us off and we picked up some Juice and Biscuits and then walked down to the Offquay.
Joe and Foxy turned up not long after. So practice Number #1 as "Sunday League"We blasted through the song we wrote last week and it sounded really good, were getting loads tighter. Chris then put the vocals down after we played through a few times and he knew what he was doing. I was really happy with how everything sounded. I think we sound slightly like Braid, but its only the first song so I guess we still aint got our "Sound" yet.
We then moved onto the second song which we worked on at Laff's the other night. Foxy and I played through what we already knew while Joe put some drums to it. Then for me it was like hitting a brick wall, We couldnt write the next part, it just didnt seem to go anywhere.
We chilled for a bit while Foxy sat there just playing his guitar trying to find a next part. He eventually did it and Joe recorded what had been played on his laptop. Iv gotta say, I still wasnt feeling the song til I heared the recording played back, it sounds kinda like Algernon with a bit of Native thrown in, which isnt a band thing at all.
After practice we piled in Foxy's car and dropped Joe at the train station before heading back to Heaton for some Salt and Pepper, Chilli Chips from the Chinese and a session at The Manor. Foxy bought us Irn Bru and we just sat, talked and listend to tunes for quite a while. Foxy also showed us the Youtube footage of when a Horse was on the loose at Bolden Cinema, which was hilarious. We smoked a little, drank some tea (Im sick of getting the Poo's mug) then Foxy dropped me off at home. I climbed straight into bed with Sarah, we caught up and then crashed out.
