SOFT-MINTY-CANDY flavored ASPIRIN

hello everyone!!!

ever wondered why some things never really change? well, i do and it really frustrates me but what can i do?

last nght was buzz night but i never really got to experience it that much because i got there very late na (i had work coming from sta rosa in the afternoon then on to san mateo in the evening, good thing selena was with me the whole time - valentines eh!) i even forgot the name of the band that was performing when we arrived. they play really decent alternative rock tunes and even sang some tagalog songs! (PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT RECENTLY I'VE COME TO REALIZE THAT BUZZ NIGHT IS JUST AN EVENT AND NOT "THE INDIE SCENE" ITSELF WHICH GIVES ME THE FREEDOM TO INVOLVE BANDS OF WHATEVER GENRE I DEEM APPROPRIATE)... OH WELL... it was really nice seeing familiar faces that night still suporting buzz eventhough they weren't billed to play that night. i saw Dott and some of his bandmates, my ex-aspirin/minty bandmate jeoffrey (probably checking on what has become of minty hehehe... ang lupit namin kagabi ano? mamatay ka nalang sa inggit!!!). i also saw some members of the Lubitels.

i had wally of ballon derby to fill in for me doing the organizing stuff while i was away. salamat chong for the help pero huwag mo na pangarapin yung pinapangarap mo kagabi (over my dead body) ako ang buzz night! pag ikaw na ang mag-take over sa buzz night, iba nalang ang itawag mo. "derby night" sabay may sabong... joke lang pare...

to the bands who played, salamat! carnival park, balloon derby, tether, five leaves left (d ako sure sa name sensha na), archaster, jello torpedo (featuring my much-missed, well-loved friend and recently adopted anak Patty on bass. metal nga ba?), syempre ang walang kakupas-kupas na popular days (these guys are really great... i'm not saying this because close friends ko sila... d ako ganun eh)
sana may mag-comment sa superminty. alangan naman sabihin kong ang galing-galing SOBRA ng set namin except for the last song na d pa talaga namin na-peperfect, pangit din naman sabihin kong ubod ng ganda mga song namin kahit totoo... hay naku, life is so unfair. naaawa tuloy ako sa mga taong d nakapanuod sa amin...

ganyan talaga...

ano? egocentric ako? megalomaniac? self-worshipping? hindi ah... i'm simply just being honest...

oo nga pala...

delayed pa rin ang 14 song candyaudioline recording with still 3 songs under construction...

nagrecord na nga pala ang Superminty ng 4 song ep waiting to be mixed... ABANGAN!!!

soft pillow kisses might record a 4 song ep by the second week of march... song to be considered for inclusion are... "wasting opportunities", "special day", "bathing in the sun" and "i was right".

i've also been talking to my aspirin bandmates and have agreed to record an 8 song mini-lp...

a compilation is also in the planning stage...

ayos d ba!!!
