What's the more of an idea you have now? (that sentence was really awkward to word hahaha.) Yep, finished college and I'm working freelance in the film industry :) in the art department.

David! holy crap long time no talk. How have you been?

It actually usually doesn't occur to me to check out other songs by someone until I've found three or four in my library. When I have one then I think "Well, I just happen to like this one song by them" but when I get a tiny gathering of them I start going "Hey wait a minute, this might be worth looking into..." and that's when I start to dig around, haha. :') And oooh dear that does look might tasty ;__; Why didn't I get some ice cream while I was at the store yesterday, ahhh...

Haha, I should reallyyy listen to more by those two, I just stumbled upon one song by each of them and snatched them up. :') I've been meaning to start going through the people that I only have one or two songs from and seeing if I would enjoy any of their stuff, I'm just swamped right now so who knows when that will happen, haha. Hurray for Matchbox 20 in any case. :D (whee simultaneous conversations)

On the plus side at least you are employed I'm still here ugh (sucks, since certain ppl are annoying) dude goodluck! haha I'm sure you can get into uni lol smart-ass lol I like college better just because I'm more hands on...I don't like people telling theory at me (haha) what happened to your whole web design thing?

I was debating about going back for something I have no idea what though..hmmm...ugh why is it so hard? :s haha ohh man yeah I know I need to play my guitar more too (speaking of I found one of my picks a couple weeks ago randomly LOL) ugh I know dude, we so do!! maybe in the summer :)

i used to post on football-chat with you

LMAO! awws *hugs* haha you know what's sad about that whole low compatibility thing (wow it's late and there looks like alot of i's in there :s lmao) anywho yeah it's pretty crazy since everytime we talk there's awesome bands involved lol (this thing tells lies LIIIIEEESS!!!) but that's okay your still my guitar player lmao, I won't kick you out because of what some sit says LOL dude, we need to get some music going, someday...I haven't talked to you in like forever!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! lol since I never got to tell you lmao I MISS YOU!!!! *hugs*!

Oh hiiii! Yeah i went to see them the other month too, they played a load of new stuff. All good but it'll take a bit of getting used to!

BTW not sure about all the Avril pervs, although she's ok :D

Alright bro, just seen this

Our music compatability is low, you need to sort that haha

yeah i'm loving the 80s synthy sound! I will have to go see them when I'm settled into uni. Glad I'm not still at school though :p

Avril Lavigne? really? lol

Yep I've kind of seen Metric twice, Emily walked past me and I should've said hello but I wasn't too fussed about her at the time :( I don't even like Chasing Cars, I don't even like Run or Chocolate tbh. And yeah I used to really love BKB - Parka were supporting them at this really amazing gig a few years ago and that was how I heard about Parka. BKB have gone really quiet though and i saw their drummer at glasto playing for someone else. Good to hear about your job! when does school start?

Yeah Glasto is about as big as they come! I don't want to go to any other festies now because they won't compare! oh cool, where do you work? I STILL haven't got a job. it's getting a bit dire now because no shops/restaurants will take me if i'm just going to bugger off to uni in 2 months. Yeahhh I only listen to the first 2 SP albums if I'm going to listen to them at all! I tried really hard to like Eyes Open but I just can't so I gave up on it and Final Straw :( They were the first band I ever saw live

yep indeed! I saw Gerry and Neil at glasto actually, whilst I was walking about in a drunken state. I'm fine thanks, how are you?

Yeah, I bet jeepster are struggling in the recession! oh wells, 6ns will resurface eventually!

Yeah told you so! I'm a bit disappointed 6ns don't seem to be doing Glasto this year :( I don't think they'd split up as well, unless they're out of money. Which is entirely possible.

yayy! is that college as in move and out and go to lectures college or college as in... school but not? Ahh that's a point, I think 6ns are still together. Might be recording their 2nd album?

That would be awesome! I know Matty is in the studio doing something or other atm :) I'm ok thanks, you? Big big exams coming up in a month, but then it's my birthday and GLASTONBURY!!! How are you?

wow, that is well and truly parkafied! yep keep listening, people tend to either hate or love muse but they are excellent! and interesting!

yes you really should! have a listen to the singles, like Hysteria and Plug in baby. Their live shows are pretty much unrivaled in epicness :D

Yeahh I think i have, but i HATE the pigeon detectives!!! WITH A PASSION!

well thankyou, you can see I spent far too much of my spare time on there :p Did you know they did a cover of hip's don't lie - shakira? it was comedy gold! but i don't have the mp3 :( it would be a bit weird to ask for it now

Ooh nice background! Have you forced parka upon your friends yet? tbh most bands are mooching towards facebook now, it won't be long til myspace is obsolete! I had some great fun customising my myspace though. Started off with some dire backgrounds but I am satisfied with the current look :)

Yeah i know I talked to you on the boards! It was basically me, you and Dougy on there haha. I only really use myspace for keeping up with band blogs, facebook is where it's at! I'm wecky btw, you can see my myspace in parka's top friends (god how pretentious does that sound!)

Ahaha oh dear, my myspace has been parka-fied for the past 2 and a half years I think. I used to badger everyone to join the mailing list... but that doesn't even exist anymore does it? Ooh and I think Clo made a myspace group for them?

Haha you're sounding as obsessive as me! Yeah Mark is doing really well and the company he works for might really take off! A few months ago him and Matty were recording some synthey Prince-sounding songs. Dunno if they will ever surface though :)

Oh welll :( and you didn't even see them live did you? That's the best bit!

Mmm never say never, as I say some of them are still writing music for other things

Yeah but tbh the boys really don't get along, it all fell apart months ago. before the recession :(

Ahh I need to get a job too, I have £10 which is more than you I suppose! Keep at it with your band and try and get a gig :) Might try and join another band when I get to uni...

Ooh you have to listen to The Glass, it is possibly my favourite cos it has a bitchin sax solo! Yeah Portsmouth is like a half hour drive away from me, Bognor must be a bit further, I've never been there tbh so I don't really know where it is :D I WAS in a band but we've split up now, it was fun for a bit but we don't have the time or patience with each other anymore.

No actually right down the other end of the British isles, I live on the south coast and the nearest city is Southampton. Yeah I think there were plans to bring Dj in the Corner out at one point. I thought the lyrics are a bit on the druggy side for the song to be radio-friendly but when I asked Matty he thought it would be fine haha! Other songs I think would have been great singles are Bosses and Mr Optimistic, but they're a teensy bit explicit I suppose... The Disco Dancer bside The Glass is amaaaazing don't you think?

Yep, here is where it's at! And i'm moving to the capital in september, i cannae waait!

oh yes i go see 6ns every time they come to town! Gerry is a lovely fella, John is a bit mental (in a good way) and I don't really know the rest. Hmm hope the next album comes out soon...

Yeah, they aren't really doing anything at the moment. Matty has a side project so we might hear something from them sooner or later. Neil has another band and the others are working with other things. I miss 'em!

ahh yees, i went through a bit of a phase. that was the only parka track i had at the time :)

aye but thats the main thing :D. Though you need to get some Feeder cracked.

yep you need to get more verve on your computer especially. Let me recomend you two bands, Milburn and Sunshine Underground :)

our compatibility is medium. tut tut! x

I do. Why? Are they another Canadian band that no-one outside of Canada has ever heard of? lol

Nope, that's Owen Pallett who's from Final Fantasy. Jason Collett is from Broken Social Scene and he's gota few solo albums out.

have I told you that Jason Collett went to your school? You should check him out. And yeah, the Velvet Underground is awesome.

thats nice
