End of 2nd Week

So, I lied.  I said I'd post every week.  It's been 11 days or something.  Snap, son.

I had already written this exact same entry yesterday.  But I forgot to post it and closed the window.  It was angering.

So, news: 

•  I'm no longer sick which is a good thing.
• So far I'm doing alright on getting a song a week written.  In fact, I have written 3+ songs in these two-ish weeks. (yes, even i'm impressed)
•  I'm having trouble sticking to a specific genre.  I've written a pop punk song, a folk song, a techno-core screamo song and half a hardcore song so far this semester.  It's killing me.  I'll probably have to start 3 different bands like that dude from Head Automatica.
  
• Yesterday I screamed for around 2 straight hours.  I'm definitely building up my throat-chops.
• I've met several people I would LOVE to have in my band.

I continually ride a wave of extreme excitement and then apprehension about my musical career and pursuits.  I should probably write some songs about it.

Above many other things I am constantly learning that, except for when reading contracts and other such lawyerish documents,  SIMPLICITY.  SIMPLICITY.  

EVERY. SINGLE.  SONG. THAT WAS EVER ANY GOOD. IS.  SIMPLE.

it can sound as complicated as you want it to.  but the form and structure are always. simple.

make music not war.
