Oh well.

I hope you get to do at least do some early 70's Bowie material, if not anything from Station to Station. Good luck at the benefit concert! Sounds fun. Is it going to be more or less stressful playing in front of people you know, d'you suppose?

Hmmmmm. You're not prying too much, although I don't generally talk about much of my creative writing with people I don't know IRL. I'll tell you what, my deviantart page that I set up for my comic-related items is http://abraxasproject.deviantart.com , and considering as the short stories are a sort of prelude to it, they'll be up there when I'm finished (most of them are in the editing stage, so it won't be long.) As for the songs, myself and a friend are still writing, so I'm not going to post them or the lyrics until we're done. We might set up a Myspace page somewhere down the road, we'll see.

P.S. If you have not already watched the movie Martian Child, you should do this posthaste.

P.P.S. I talk somewhat differently on my deviantart page than I do here, as while I'm posting with this account I'm generally try to stay partially in character. i.e. A British fop from the 70's who's on coke and is possibly an alien. So please pay no mind to the sudden change in writing style between here and my deviantart account.

Ah, I see, so the show wasn't the end of the band thing, then? Well yes, that's certainly a great musical artist to continue your studies with! I would suggest that you ask to learn something from Station to Station, TVC15 coming first to mind. Hallucinations, TVs eating girlfriends, and Iggy Pop - it's difficult to find a song with better subject matter.

Hmm, right now I'm largely working on a small collection of short stories, a comic (...Don't judge me.), and am refining some songs (not quite David Bowie material, but I'm not quite David Bowie.) There was a Gaia roleplay I was working on as well that's going on hold for a while.

Yes, I have long since got out the 'old winter garmentage, and have been quite comfortably warm since then, thankyou.

Congratulations on the show! I'm glad it was such a roaring success. User Image

300 people, you say? That's actually very very good. Have you and your bandmates considered getting together to do anything outside the program?

And yes, I am still quite excited and fabulous. I'm a very exitable person, and of course always fabulous in at least one respect. Projects are still chugging along, I am still in relatively good health, and the human race has not yet bombed itself into a nuclear winter from which we have no escape. So, overall, things are going marvelouslly. So, now that the band program is over, do you have any major plans for the future?

I'm quite alright, thank you. Feeling very healthy, other than the fact that it's suddenly gotten quite cold over here and I'm too lazy to bring out proper winter garments.

I'm thrilled the rock band program is working out for you! Just goes to show how much my advice is worth, I suppose. User Image

Making connections in with other musicians is always good as well, especially if you think you might wish to persue a career in the music field. You still haven't said if you're having fun though, are you enjoying it? Despite a certain scary manager?

Pfft. You know another blonde who has amazing hair? Myself. D:< Don't see nearly enough Thin White Duke hair around, I'll tell you that.

Anyhow, as for my life, it's actually going quite well. I'm very much excited about my current art project, and I have various online things on the go as well that are working out marvelously. So, despite definate sleep deprivation in recent months, I'm just fabulous. You?

Hello,

I can tell by your profile and/or username that you like The Beatles. But the thing is, you probably don't know that there is not 1 single Beatle profile on tektek.org! Well, I am the first to make that giant leap and create one of Paul McCartney. I am asking you as a fellow Beatle/Paul McCartney lover to please click here and vote for it to be on tektek.org. It would be highly appreciated and may inspire others to make more Beatle profiles in the future.

Thank you very much,

OOOoooOOOoooh. I see I misinterpreted you, I apologise.

Well, from what you describe of your music program it seems quite nasty! It's not a good sign of the manager is pushing you that way, and you might want to consider ducking out of the whole affair unless you have an overriding reason to stay with it, or you just thrive in that kind of adversity. I hope things get better for you anyway, and I hope you meet your band soon. Perhaps you should do a few things to relax a little?

As for myself, I've been dead ill over the past weekend, the flu's been going around I suppose. Not very fun at all. It's just about passed now though, so that's something to be thankful for.

Good to hear from you as well, keep your spirits up!

Sorry luv, been really rather sidetracked as of late. Still wonderful to hear from you, just don't always have time to reply myself I'm afraid. Will still try and keep in touch, but am, as I said, a mite busy. I have a number of online and offline projects on the go at the moment. What's the news over on your end? Any gigs/new songs/new shoes for your band recently?

And thank you very much, yes, yes it's a very nice fedora. I've been seeing them around quite a bit away from Gaia as well.

please Read this whole thing its SO TRUE!!

1. At least 2 people in this world love you so much they would die for you.

2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.

3.The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.

4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.

5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.

6. You mean the world to someone.

7. If not for you, someone may not be living.

8. You are special and unique.

9. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you.

10. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.

11. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely turned your back on the world.

12. When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner or later, you will get it.

13. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.

14. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better

15. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they are great.

Add this as a comment to ten of your friends tonight and at midnight your true love will find you. Something good will happen to you at 2:25 tomorrow. Get ready for the biggest shock of your life. Whoever breaks this chain letter will be cursed with 10 relationship problems for the next ten years tag ur it!! this is so scary!!! send this to 15 ppl in the next 143 min. and then press F6 and your crushes name will appear in big letters!! it is so scary because it works.... but if you break the chain.. you will be cursed w/ relationship problems. NO SEND BACKS If u have less than 15 friends its ok send it to as many people as you can!!!!

Firstly, I must apologise for this very late reply. I've been quite busy recently, and very much regret that I did not get the oppurtunity until now to respond.

Anyhow, yes. I think it's quite interesting the way you're attempting to write the songs, although I don't think a song necessarily has to be from a male perspective to break that kind of stereotype that you're speaking of. (Not that I think that's exactly what you're saying, but on the offchance.) On a similar note, do you listen to any Annie Lennox/The Eurythmics?

Exactly. Life becomes that much more precious as well, don't you think? Then again, this could simply be arrogance talking.

Well, I can only assume that's quite the acheivement. I'm not a fisher at all, myself, although I've tried a couple of times. There's a lake near where I used to live that was quite good for fishing, we'd often have rich folks from the states up there on holiday. Unfortunately I was never really drawn to the sport myself, otherwise I may have found the place more interesting. I liked the forest around in the area, though.

Really? Anything on acoustic guitar tends to help me fall asleep, it doesn't really depend on the singer. Interesting.

In any case, before I sign off, I should probably just warn you that I'm not going to be on the internet as avidly as I have been in the past, but I will still be around occasionally to reply again if you care to keep up the conversation, even if it takes a time for me to reply. x_x

Hope you're well!

I usually have a good memory for anything I read. Not so much for things I hear though, was never really sure why. (Actually, those are quite interesting last names. User Image

I like them.) Sounds like you've got a good variety of song material. User Image

Yes, I suppose that would be more interesting than many of the other apparant options. My main hope, though, is that life after death will be something completely unimagineable and new. Even possibly that there will be a number of stages to it, so that new experiences keep building on. Things would be much more exciting that way, especially seeing as that puts life in this world as simply the first step in a series. However, being the pessimist that I am, I'm mostly just drawn to beleive that we simply cease to exist after we die. -_-' One can only wait and see, I suppose.

Hah, I've actually had a much more eventful year than normal, so yes, I've been on quite a few trips. I'm sure it'll even out again soon,however, as it's straining my already strained budget. Bermuda, you say? Never been there myself. Is the scenery nice, at least?

Marc Bolan's voice was very nice, I must admit.

I had plenty of fun on my trip, thank you! User Image

Always good to hear from you.

I'm in a state of perpetual confusion myself.

I was an influence? For a song? User Image

Second time I've been ridiculously flattered today. I do think it was you who started the whole dream conversation in the first place, though. Have you folks written any songs since then?

Well, good then. You know, the whole reason I don't like the traditional christian idea of heaven (forgive me if I'm crossing the line here, I don't know how religious you are,) is because it seems entirely too boring for my taste. I'd honestly rather it be oblivion. I don't much like the idea of reincarnation either; I guess I'm just far too picky for my own good.

I've been pretty good, heading off on a trip in a couple of days that should be fun. No, no I'm afraid I don't have that CD yet. I've had a rather limited budget for a while, and I listen to a very wide variety of bands, so I don't always get the chance to pick up all the music I want. The worst part of it is my computer hates limewire, so I can't even listen to them until I have the money to buy the actual thing. D: I'll definately bump that disc up on the list, though.

Don't worry, I'm rather difficult to annoy, dear. I'll talk to you in a week and a half, (going on a trip you know,) if you've replied by then!
