August 15 06
So I have a new roommate, and she
is toataree ricked! She moved in on August the 9th, and we have slowly
made the apartment feel like a little home; I cannot say that it felt like a home at all before Kayl moved in. The apartment was just a place to store my many things and to sleep at night. Some of Khym’s things are still here and a couch needs to be taken away, but other then that it is
now home I guess. Kaylee and I have become really close friends over the last
couple months and now we get to hang out even more since she has moved in. Good
thing she has a futon because my mom has stolen my bed for the last little while; I was on the floor for some time BUT NOT
ANY MORE AHAHA.
My mom is such a good cook, so good.
She feeds me so much and I enjoy every last bite of it all. She is leaving tomorrow morning, which sucks big time but its good I guess, I can get back to my normal
routine. Kayl will be back from Clearwater at 6am Friday and no band practice this weekend.
So the band has a new guitar player,
Mike Griggs. I am having trouble writing songs with him due to the fact that
his style is way different and I have never worked with another guitar player before. We
have done two shows with him, one in Clearwater for grandmas
and children; that show was really intense, we had a lot of fun with it. Then
this last Saturday at Chilli’s, again, we threw down; I can go a lot more
berserk on stage now since Mike is there to Back me up if need be. On our last
song the band started to mawsh; I hit Ronan in the head with my guitar, I was so satisfied.
Back to skool in a couple of weeks,
and back to the grind and do some things I don’t know if I want to…
July 10 06
I
just had one hell of a kick ass weekend. Never before have I had a grin on my face for so long about something.
My giddiness is uncontrollable and retardedly untamed.
On
the other hand, Corporate Murder has a new lead/rhythm guitar player, Mike Griggs. I have been jamming with him and that
has been awesome. So I asked him if he would like to join up, he said yes and I shook his hand. His style of music
is darker then that of mine and he has a completely different guitar style; thus, our music will become more elaborate and
with rhythm solos will become more powerful. Everyone in the band is stoked on this new presence. We have yet
to have a practice with Mike, though i still have to teach him all of our songs, which I did tab out for him.
Fuck,
Im on the floor at walmart now, it is lame! Ramey told me i would only be out of the shop on days that were needed but
i think im pretty much out of the shop for good FUCK, oh well im getting more hours, and that means i can spend a little more
on some people that i desire to spend money on, or save it for skool yes i know gawd.
Practice
this weekend. We have not had a practice in too long. Oooh and ill be in Clearwater, and ill get to hang out with a friend YES,
now im stoked, but its only Monday gawd so many more days to go....
July 03 06
On Friday, the 30th of June, Corporate Murder opened for Chroms Onslaught, Children
of Flies and Devoured Remains. By far it was our bands best performance and the best show we have been it. Every
band kicked so much ass that ass to be kicked was hard to come by. By favorite performance was Children of Flies, HOLY
SHIT did they do a great job. Their opening song got me into it, the first scream went of forever, it was
so freaken insane. The way they got the crowd to thrash out was crazy, they threw themselves at the the crowd to make
them mawsh. Hopefully we will do many more shows with these bands!!
I finaly sent away my signature for my student loans. AAAH loans!! O well, frankly
I dont care becasue I know that I can pay them off. Still have not signed up for the courses that I "desire" to. Stupid
system making it harder and harder to get into the classes one needs. Back to Skool in two months, for fuck sakes, but
it has to be done. Life must not be filled with things we should do; rather, more of the things we like to do in our
life should be acheived.
I hate it when I want to do something, but i know i shouldn't due to the fact it could mess
so much of my life up and make things just a little more complecated. Should I give up so much to attempt this or take
the safe route down the straight road, the road i can see down? It has happend once already this year and im still pondering
if i mad e the right decision. Most of me thinks that Have, but there is always that little bit saying no you fucked
everything up for yourself.
June 17 06
So I am pretty content at the moment. I dont now why, but the days just seem to get
better as they come upon me. This is due to many reasons, one of the biggest is the band. We did our first show
on June 8th and it went awsome. Actually, i do not remember a whole lot about our set due to the fact that i was zoned
right out; however, i know it went well because we receive many complements about our performence. We, Corporate Murder,
got to meet Blood Hymn finaly, sweet ass group of guys ready to throw down at any moment. There singer looks just like
Tom Araya, well i think he does. MAN, the show was sweet, we made a little money so we can save up and get some equiptment
one day, eventually. I cannot stress enough how much fun the show was and im stoked to do so many more. and we have.....
and my mom was there to watch the show THAT WAS AWSOME, I was so happy that she came. and she got me a car
The night after our show we were asked to open for two bands at Chilli's Bar
and Grill, Devoured Remains and Time is the Enemy. We said yes though we wouldnt have our other guitar player,
for complecations. So we got organized and into Kamloops and the bands cancelled on us and so the show was cancelled.
But we did the show any how, just us, June 09 at Chilli's and only 7 people showed up but the show was still worth it. we
got to rock out some more and we have 7 more fans. It was fun as well
And so we had to make a very hard decisions this week, to keep or let Kody go,
and hopfully we did the right thing. It had no personal aspects behind it, just band/buisness. We are still his
friends but we sure as hell hope he still wants to be ours.
So with that we did a show last night in Barrier at the fall fair grounds. There were
4 bands, us, UDs Dring Down the Dead and Blood Hymn. I was a good show, and now I am sore. I almost blew out my
left ear becasue i had Ronans Vocals blareing through a moniter into it. Over all the show was pretty sweet and we met
some more bands which is always good.
So now .... we have two shows lined up at Chillis one on the 24th and one on the 30th, we
are so stoked...
Also, life has been good for other reasons...secret reasons hee hee hee
Though, sadly today I received the news that my
step grandfather past away. He was a great gentleman, though I did not know him as well as I would have liked.
One thing I do know for sure is that he taught my father how to be a great role model and father
May 31 06 again
So i was rocken out, going through my bands set when ZAAAAAAAAAAP!! My ankle touched
my bed frame, which was touching my floor board heater. My whole body shook for a second and a bit. My guitar almost
took off. When it was over i threw my guitar down and ran away and colected myself. I looked down and there was
aburn on my ankle and by calf was sore and my whole body was rattled.
May 31 06
I just woke up and i had the craziest dream last night. It stated and
i was a teenage mutant ninja turtal and i was somehow secretly walking around the foot klan headquarters skopping it out becasue
i was going to come back later that night and mess things up.
So later that night i went back. I found myself in a predicament, there
were hundreds of footmen all in 4 by 4 cages planning something and they heard me. So i Quickly found an empty cage
and hid in it. They could not find me so i stayed low for a moment. Then all of a sudden i was part machine and this
part of me was gaspping for air. It was really loud but i could barelly contoll it. it got louder and i tried to shut it up
but i was too late the footmen heard me and i had to run.
i got out of my cage and sprinted away with hundreds of footmen behind me.
Some how they caught up to me; thus, i was surrounded and had to fight my way out. I was close to an area where i could
get assistance so tried to fight in that direction. I got there and opened the door and all there was more of
the foot klan and shreader himself. I turned to fight and run but shreader showed right infront of me. i looked
him deep in the eyes, then he grabbed me by the throught and threw me into his masses of men.
i some how got out of the crowed and i started to run. I ran as fast as i
could. As i ran i transformed back into my human self and i got away.
Next i found myself outside the foot klan headquarters and no one was their
for some reason. Me, the dreamer, had no clue why I was there. Me in the dream ran into the building and yelled
"Lets fucking go!". There was C4 all over the building and it was readdy to go. Matt Lashipal came around the
corner and said "Its ready, i ll set it for a minuit and a half, that will gives us enough time." He called something
out and i started to run with him behind me. I was running to wards a train yard and Kody, my banbds other guitar player,
and Justin, my bands bass player, caught up with us. They were the other look outs.we got to the train yar and Kody
went first.
I watched as Kody weaved in and out and through the mowing trains. At the
last set of tracks a train suprised him and hit him. Some blood shot around and Kody's body was thrown way. I Screamed
and started to run through the train yard. Some how made it, the whole sprint was a blur. I looked back to Matt and he started
to run too, Justin was gone already. Matt made it to the forst set of tracks and a train was coming at him from the
left. He paniced and turned, he turnded right into an end of another train and he was trapped. The two trains smashed
together. Blood shot in all directions and it was as if Matt's body had disapeared.
I fell to my knees and sent out a tearfull scream for my two friends.
Just found me and pulled me to my feet. He gave my a hug and we went to find Kody's body. We found it, gave him a prayer.
we both grabbed and arm and drug him away.
May 28 06
I just got home from the Da Vinci Code, it was an alright movie; however,
it didnt excite me at all. It made me jump twice and laugh a couple of times; but, it did interest me in the sence that
there are secrets in this world that no one or only a few chossen people know about. Also, it made think about wrong
facts or forgoten facts of life...history is writen by the victors and burned by the nonbeleivers, so in fact, how much of
what we know is actualy real. All we can know for sure is that what we have done in our life is real, but then still we warp
our own memories of our life.
Life can sure take you for a spin. These last three weeks have been
insane ripping me all over the scale. Scars can last forever but only if to dont tend to them properly so ive been doing
my best. You know Jeeerry, ive been thiinken aboot us. Jeerry, you ever think about us? haha laughter really helps
even if you have to make yourself laugh some how. the Bottle will never be a solution for me, ever. Just Keep on Keepen
on and things may get worse or things may get better and eventually all thigs come to an end some way some how some time though
that way, how, time is never now untill it comes upon you.
June 8th 06, Corporate Murders first show. this band has destroyed me
in many ways but then again it has pleased me in many ways. i dont know which side is heavyer in the long run but i do know
which one is right now. Through them ive met a lot of new people, few of who i can remember their names but i for sure
remember their faces.
Darn tooten i got a job at Wal-mart boo ya hahah. I work in the tire
libe and express changing oil and tires and such(and break things). The guys i work with are really nice. Tony is kinda
weirdo, he is one sick dude but its funny haha. Its not a full time job but it is a job and it will allow me to live
in kamloops for the summer and play in the band, if thats what i truly want which it kinda seems to be at the moment. factors
of my life are pulling me in two directions right now it sucks and both paths i cannot see down or see the end of.
April 27 06
Freaken rights skool is over yes yes YYEESS. Well thats all done
with now and i must get a job casue im staying in kamloops for the summer. and today i had a interveiw at walmart boo ya haha
and i got a call back saying i have an interveiw with the auto department which is sweet casue i like working on cars or money.
Non of those other ass hole places called me back. boo on you ToysRus.

March 9 06
So i went out and bought three inches of blood's cd "battlecry of a winter
sun" its pretty alright. balls of ice is a pretty sweet song, nothing to go crazy over but still good. One downfall of
the cd is that it sounds like it was recorded in a crappy ass foam box. Ride darkhourse ride is a very good song as welll.
the cd compares nothing to there seceond one "advance and vanquish", a better cd all around. full of ripping riffs.
So i started to sing, im going for a early Araya\Petrozza.
way different singers but somewhere in the middle. i know ill end up no where close to them but im still gonna giver.
Deanna. my girlfriend sure hates it but she isnt going to stop me now is she. maybe ill recored one of my songs and
putter on to purvolume for all you freaks who actually read this meaningless crap
Febuary 20 06
So i went to the Max [a bar] thee other day and i realized that i didnt really
enjoy the bar so much. i was with some friends but i just found myself drinking quietly with them,
looking around at everyone and going to the bathroom once and a while to pee pee. And durring one of my pee pees some
dude started talken to me "so your a metallica fan to" cause i gots my ride the lightning shit, and all of a suden i cant
pee pee. I mean who does that Akward. so i left and went back like 10 minuits later to go again when i wouldnt
be bothered.
So we went to dance and i realized i dont really like dancing anymore. I dont
need to dance and i dont see a benefit to it, maybe alittle bit of exercise. but fuck in a group of people like that just
weirds the fuck out of me. i can handle it i just dont like it at all. so i just kinda went and sat down and let the
people i was with giver and dance. so there i was mr creepy sitting by himself wanting to get the hell out of the bar,
but i have to wait like an hour soo i get myself good and drunk for the walk home.
So we had to walk like 3 km and i sprinted the first 500 meters. bad idea.
i got that blood taste in my throught and by the way it was all up hill. i just wanted to go to bed. ya whoop for me.
so we made er home and we ate the left over supper mmm that was awsome. and straight to bed i was for me. i didnt know i was
that drunk but i geuse i drank a couple there by myself. So ya that was my night of realizing i dont like the dancing bar
Oooh Oooh i wrote a new song "Silent Silent" i only has acouple words but
i think the guitar kicks ass. its more of a thrash metal song so it will fit nicely into my colection of writen songs. Also
ive been learning to sing Black Magic I almost got er down, i just can never remember the words.
February 07 06
I just bought two new cds. Opeth "Ghost Reveries" and COB "Are You Dead Yet"
The COB Cd isnt the best that ive heard but hey what can you do about it, atlest Alexi puts cds out, do I? no. However, the
Opeth cd is very very swell. its not crazy insane, i find it veryu calming and peacefull to listen to. though four of
the songs go past 10 minuits they are very well put together and are very unique. they do not seem to go inforever due to
the quality of the song and how wel they are put together.
On the other hand i had a revelation, ya me. I figured out that every group
of friends needs that one friend they can depend on to talk to and to spend time with or do some inoccent act with and that
friend will give up what he needs or wants to do to make his/her friend happy. This person has to sacrafice there
time, everything they have to ensure the well being of his/friends. this person does their actions without though.
they must always be reliable making them the ultimate friend. UTIMATE FUCKERS \m/
January 20 06
So last night I ripped a tooth out
with a pair of vice grips. It hurt for about a good 45 minuits but i got that sucker out which im happy about; since, the
tooth has been rotten and bothering me for the past three years and now its sitting on my shelf. ther was quite a bit of blood
but thats ok i like seeing my own blood, it lets me know im still ticking whick i like. so here i was with this tooth and
i started to think about the pay out of the tooth fairy for the sucker. so i asked my girlfriend if she thought the fairty
would be around. she reply was "only if the tooth fairy waickes up in the middle of the night". an i mever got my money gawd
another child hood dream down the drain.
January 17 06
So this is my first entry for this site I geuse so here she goes. As probly
noticed this is not a band's site, it is mine and I am in seach of people to help he put a band together. I have found this
to very difficult seeing how i just moved to a new town, kamloops. I do write a lot of mi own crap those couple are just the
complet ones. The recordind really sucks so dont be truned off by the static in the samples[or the complet fuck ups].
I was in a band once, the pink flamingos of B52 rejects what ever we were call it was lame punk band that I hated so freaken
much. We did a gig or two and our singer just tortured what we though were the songs we were supose to be covering. hey but
it got me started. So now her i am in kamloops looking for some jammers. Im into speed melodic viking death metalcore
hardcore metal all metal really.
On the other hand when im not playing my axe I geuse I got to school at Thompson
Rivers University and I am in my second year of my math major, whoop adee doo. Just met one of my long lost kindergarden friends
and he said he plays drums, we will see if he does or not. One of his buddies plays the bass and i may haul all my shit
up to the dudes house and giver on the riffs with him.i watched my long lost bud hurl his guts up though it was very amusing
to see while his girlfriend held him up and got his water and such. The sink where he first pucked was not so pretty. It was
very lumpy and it cloged the drain eew man eew, im glad it wasnt my house he pucked at, that shit was nasty.
I just got the new Unearth cd "The On comming Storm" which is a four and a
half starer in my books, good hard riffs and kick ass drums songs are very well put together. Killswitch Engage End of heartache
i give a 3 and a half starer not the best cd ive herd. there a about three our four songs on it worth listening over
and over again but hey ther have a record label look at me not with one snareff snareff. The New Black Dahlia Murder
cd a five a fucking five they are one incredible band. Sweet spound they really kick ass. Five
