I’ve been getting back into “jamming” since I’ve been renting this studio where you can make real noise and no one bugs you. Jamming, like how I did when I was 13, no computer, no recording, no anything but a couple weirdos in a room, with the sole purpose of catching a vibe. I don’t want to sound like a hippie, but it’s so special, even with people that don’t really play an instrument. If you sit in the room long enough with each other and get through the awkwardness of sort of sounding like shit for a little bit, I swear to God without fail, there comes a point where everyone seems to get lost at the same time. You look around the room, forget about what you’re doing, and everyone’s just nodding their heads, or smiling at each other, or laughing, or jumping around. Feels nice to counteract this sort of solitude that I typically write and record music in and make it more of a social thing. Sounds kind of old fashioned I guess, but whatever.

I like having a historical record of the shows I've been to, and I'm sad that many places don't do physical tickets anymore. How do we fix this? Does anyone know a guy?

When I was a teenager I had awful acne. I used to daydream that one day, somehow, having acne would be the height of fashion, and then it would be my time to shine. I don’t think that has really happened yet, but I still think it’s possible. The twisted thing though is I’ve always thought acne is beautiful on other people, tough, real, beautiful, vulnerable, sexy, emotional. People put stickers on them now, I say free the pimple.

I love people. I really just like two things, music and people. I don’t have any hobbies really. People make me feel like I’m here, on earth. Even if I’m holed up in my apartment or the studio, just knowing that they’re near is comforting to me for some reason. Nice to just sit and watch them. Fascinating, godly, humbling. I’ve usually got at least one nice thing to say about anyone.

I still smoke, but God I wish I never started. I look forward to the day I figure out how to quit. It’s a horrible habit. (I like it when people smoke too, and don’t get me wrong I love smoking, but…it kills you. This is not how you or I want to go out. Fuck Philip Morris, fuck the Marlboro Man. If you can stay away from those things, more power to you, water in your eyes, color in your face, beautiful skin, beautiful teeth. Every now and then? Not so bad, but I suggest not getting carried away.
