Musical Plasticities:
Fenix TX: Lechuza
Live: V
Machine Head: Supercharger


alright...cabin pressure has returned to normal. things are much smoother now...though honestly, i'm still feelin' a few tremors...but that's just because of the distance...the inability to physically share the resurgence of calm and happiness. the 28th cannot come too soon...

the new Live is interesting...not bad...i'm sure i'll learn to appreciate it more, but for now, it's a bit too experimental to gain my approval. i dunno...it's like they forgot about the effectiveness of simplicity. i'll end the criticism, though, and pick it up again after i've spun it a few more times.

Machine Head is quite good...but i already knew that from downloading all of the trax. I had to give the band the respect they deserve and actually purchase the record. I'm a TRUE fan...a member of the original breed...the ones that still shell out money for music. is it a shame that we're dying out? i dunno.

Fenix TX is alright...there's some REALLY good stuff here, but some of it is straight-up unoriginal, and unfortunately, the singer often reminds me of Dexter from Offspring...with that...slightly whiney quality to it. ah well...only 9.99. WOULD have been 7.99 at Target if the idiot on the phone from that store hadn't lied and told me that they didn't carry it. bastard.

so now, brian thinks that halloween horror nights is sold out. POO. that's gonna' suck BIG time if it comes to be true.

"You have to trust in yourself! You must believe in yourself! You have to follow your heart! You overcome, improve, endure!" -Kick You When You're Down, MACHINE HEAD.

alright...sleep time. thank you's to MM for explaining and staying true and sweet...to Annie for her constant support and love...and to Drew for keeping me laughing. to Lauren for being there...to Melo for a wonderful conversation yesterday...and to Meghan for continued trust and friendship. to Brock for being yourself and not getting hit by a flaming bus...to Frank for being sane and out of control...and to Brian for being the best friend/cousin i could ask for. to Amy for keeping in touch...to rob for being the coolest latino medicine ever...and to EVERYONE for EVERYTHING. and of course...my deepest thanx to Him.

love.

"sittin' on the beach
the island king of love
deep in fijian seas
deep in some blissful dream
where the goddess finally sleeps
in the lap of her lover
subdued in all her rage
and i am aglow with the taste of the demons driven out
and happily replaced with the presence of real love
the only one who saves"

those could most definitely be some of my favorite lyrics of all time. "Dance with You," by Live.
