I got some new stuff: A Stylophone, Waves and Amplitube, I almost have Reason figured out, I bought a Korg Monotron a few minutes ago, I just downloaded an app on my phone called "Sight Read" in hopes that I can play the piano better.
It's been 9 years since "Handicap Ho-down", so I am ready to get back into the music making game. Although I've had some mild success with singles like "Cowboy Joe (Inconceivable Agriculture Life)" and "January (featuring Mighty Midgets)," it has still been a while since Spillproof TiJ has written a chart-topper.
I'm good. But I'm not that good. I hope to enlist the help of my best buds and fellow label-mates, Penpal and the one-and-only Josiah Rosenberger. Again, I'm good. But they're better. I just tried writing a song a little bit ago and it was awful. It even made me lose my appetite for M Burger (a delicious burger place not 2 blocks from my apartment building that's full of old people). I'm still going to go there, of course, but I am far less excited.
So why I am blogging this journey? Because there is a reason Spillproof TiJ hasn't made music for so long: lack of motivation (and a minor kool-aid spill back in '06). I figure if there are people watching my progress, I will be less inclined to give up. I wouldn't want to disappoint my fans. And touring buddies, Taking Back Sunday.
Since Spillproof TiJ has been out of it for a while, I will be uploading my whole discography in the next few days. Free of charge for the first time (A $79.95 value).
Also, check out THIS as a reminder of how awesome I am.
UPDATE: M Burger closed at 7. Already disappointed I started a blog.
