Never have I seen a band in such a perfect environment. The emotions are so raw, the music is so beautiful…this is as close to musical perfection as it gets.

At the optician's
I was being helped by a guy wearing the required attire - a three-piece suit without the jacket, basically. Then this happened.
Optician: Hey, that's a GWAR cap.
Me: Yeah, you know them?
Optician: Yeah, I have a bloodstained shirt back home from when I saw them live.
Me: That's awesome, I have a shirt like that too.
Then we talked about being in a band and music in general. Needless to say, I bought the glasses. Also because the glasses were awesome.

My Very First Radio Interview! (In Dutch, though) →
I promoted my band yesterday in a friends’ radio show. The promoting starts somewhere around the 57 minute mark.
Remember those dreams?
Add my very first radio interview to that list.

Dream
In twenty hours, I will be standing on a stage with my band. In twenty-one hours, hopefully, people will buy our first cd. Dreams can come true. Just go for it.

Reverse; an open letter to an actress
I’ve read your life, backwards. Two years in three days. I’ve listened to the music you’ve heard, saw the movies you’ve seen, read the books you’ve read.
I’ve fallen for you, in the most impossible way.
We’re worlds away from each other. Literally. Figuratively. Oceans lay between us, yet we share this website. I don’t think you even know. You...

I was talking to a friend just now when I realized that I have an almost psychic sense of fashion to come. I just don’t have the cash or the need to give in to that sense. When I finally do, sadly, I’m the one following the herd.
An example: for a couple of years I’ve been thinking about getting myself a pair of those thick-rimmed glasses, like Buddy Holly (or more recently,...
