the happiness, excitement, and general contentedness thread

Am I still allowed to hangout here even though I don't have any pedals?

FINALLY (two weeks late) my new seat cover arrived for my motorbike, along with the staples I need to attach it, so I can be back on the road again soon


But the best thing? A while ago I applied for a job with an insurance company, a decent wage, great hours, a small close-knit team. I missed out on it and they hired someone else, so I instead accepted a job as a christmas temp at a skateboard shop. Minimum wage, crap hours (zero hour contract), and generally typical sales assistant job.


Got a call today from the insurance company saying the other guy they hired bailed on them, they asked me if I was still up for the job!

So pleased, I'll have almost every weekend off, and enough money coming in to be able to buy more gear and work on my guitar/fx projects

Picture of your motorbike or it's a lie, is there a motorcycle thread yet?

My concert tonight has been cancelled due to weather. :/


But now I get to stay home and drink beer and make chili.

"You sound like The White Stripes" isn't an insult.

are we sure about this?/If you say so...

Yeah, to be fair, I like to make things groovier behind the kit.

I don't think there's a motorcycle thread yet?

It's nothing special, just a Honda CG125 from 1991. I've only been on it for about a year or so, once I've passed my test I'll be moving up to something bigger.



Sorry for the crappy phone pic, but here you go;




It's only little, but it doesn't look like a little at first glance

[D.o.S.]

Swans are playing my hometown at a very reasonable price.

So I just saw a car with a 'BORT1' license plate.

Rediscovering the joys of my handheld cassette player. Acoustic guitar sounds so good on this little guy. Filled up the rest of this tape and just listening.

Love me some White Stripes and proud of it.

Of course!

SO, good news!
On Thursday, I ran into a girl I had class with a while back.
We started talking a bit, catching up, and I asked her for her phone number.
And she said yes!
We talked a bit more, and then I asked her if she wanted to get coffee sometime.
And she said yes again!!

I've never just 'gone on a date' with a girl before.
I've only ever dated girls who I was already pretty close friends with and would hang out with regularly.
So this should be interesting!

Was my first time seeing Keiji Haino play tonight.

Pretty life-changing experience to say the least.

^ Awesome, I know that feel. Man, you make me want to go back to Tokyo. Where did you see him?

Brought out the Super Oscillo again today. I have it on my miniboard, which is cool because I only play it occasionaly. New sounds each time.
