8:19 pm - "Hut One! Hut Two! Hut Three! Hut!"
|
Hey Everybody,
I just wanted to let you know that my band, Trace The Veins, finished their new EP, titled "Labelmaker". It's done being mastered and will be released in mid-August.
In celebration, we posted two of the songs to our Myspace player to share them with you guys. Hope you enjoy them!
We have 3 more dates left to book in our tour and are pumped to head out on the road and party with everyone outside of Michigan.
Come check us out July 22nd at the Elbow Room. It'll be our last official show before we hit the road.
Thanks to Mike and James of Downbeat Studios in Chicago for recording our EP, helping us out so much, and being rad dudes.
Thanks Everybody. See you Soon!
Kevin

11:06 am - Pittsburgh
|
So,
Angela, Brian, Henry and I drove to Pittsburgh to see Anti-Flag at The Smiling Moose for the CD release show of The People or the Gun.
We drove about 4.5 hours to go out and it was well fucking worth it.
Our first stop was at the Monroeville Mall. We wanted to check it out because it's the mall where George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead was filmed.
Later, we checked out the Evan's City Cemetary ,because it's the cemetary where the opening scene of George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead was filmed.
More awesomeness!
We arrived at the Smiling Moose around 5:30pm for Anti-Flag's CD release show. When let in, I was unbelievably excited to see how small the stage was.
Honestly, it was like seeing Anti-Flag at the Token Lounge or something. The opening bands The Catastrophies, and American Armada played very well. I was moreso a fan of American Armada, because they reminded me of my band, Trace The Veins, and were very fun to watch (very fast too).
All of us were obviously pumped for Anti-Flag to take the stage. They opened with Turncoat. It was all uphill from there. You can check out my default pic if you'd like to see their setlist! They even played some really old songs, such as: Punk By The Book, Drink Drank Punk, Die For The Government (even though that one's usually in rotation) and You Suck! Awesome. I was bummed that they didn't play more off of their new album. I would've liked to hear The Economy is Suffering, Let it Die.
We all conversed with the members of Anti-Flag and harassed Justin Sane for a picture.
He was very kind and a real cool guy to meet. This was my 9th time seeing Anti-Flag and these guys are only funner to watch and cooler to be around. We were able to get one of our copies signed for a friend who couldn't go to the show with us. He was happy.
So, here's where I pretend to be a music critic...
I am a huge Anti-Flag fan, and have been one since I was a 14 year old freshman in 2003. The first album I have ever heard by them was A New Kind of Army. Not long after I got into Anti-Flag, The Terror State came out. It was, at the time, the best album I had ever heard, and inspired me in my political endeavours to a point I didn't previously know (anyone who's been to an A-F show when they've played "One People-One Struggle" knows what I mean).
In 2006 Anti-Flag released their first album from their two-record-deal with RCA records (a decision I have supported ever since Pat Thetic told me they were considering). For Blood and Empire, while not classic Anti-Flag, was a fucking masterpiece.
Although I am not a fan of Bright Lights of America there are some very amazing songs on the album (most notably the title track, Modern Rome Burning and Vices). It marks the end of their two-album-stint on RCA.
I was suprised to hear that Anti-Flag was self recording their new album and planned to release it independently on SideOneDummy. Though I didn't care much for Sheep In Shepards Clothing, I was excited to hear what I felt would be a "back to basics" A-F album. I was able to listen to the album a whole month early due to the wonder of the internet. So, I had an opinion of the album very early. Anti-Flag's The People of the Gun contains every Anti-Flag song style I've ever heard. I love pretty much every minute of it. I love the poppier songs (like The Economy is Suffering, Let It Die and Old Guard) the most. The classic A-F style songs (like We Are The One, You Are Fired) bring me to a weird mix of new excitement and old nostalgia. The "secret" track, Teenage Kennedy Lobotomy is a fun, fast, non-political song on the same level as A New Kind of Army's "Right On". The only song on the album I didn't like was "On Independence Day". Sorry #2. It's too dancy for me.
All in all. This album was amazing. Though I'm sure I will be shot for this, I must say The People or the Gun is Anti-Flag's best release since The Terror State. I absolutely love it!
Get Awesome!

1:45 pm - "Buried, But Breathing. These Devils Weep."
|
I saw this when I was checking my email.
Is it me, or is this a little much for a life insurance ad.
Bravo.
Jesus! Look at that kid cry. I wonder what the director of the shoot said to make that kid cry like that. I'm assuming they told the kid it was actually his dad's funeral.
I dunno.
I have to work at 5. They made me shave my beard off.
I'm the full-time bass player of Trace The Veins now. In case I didn't tell you. Plus, I'm now in an 80's Hardcore revival band known as, Fuck Face Academy. We played our first show last Saturday, you weren't there. Besides Dave and Emberley. For shame.

12:29 pm - COMIC!
|
The other day, Mark and I got into a car accident.
We were on our way to Salsaritas to get chips and salsa for his mom.
When we were on Van Born turning left onto Beech Daily some douchebag T-boned us.
Strangely enough this was the exact car crash that Brian and I got into a couple years ago, except the roles were reversed this time.
Since there was a comic made about the crash Brian and I got into, I took it upon myself to create one about this crash.
Yes. I'm a ripoff.
No. I don't care.
Yeah, image quality sucks. If you care enough to have something deciphered I will.
Thank You,
That is all.

Anyway, I'm currently playing bass for a pretty much awesome punk rock band, called Trace The Veins
On Saturday, February 28th we're playing the finals of The Gorilla Music Battle of the Bands at The Hayloft Liquor Stand.
Trace The Veins won the last round of the battle and we'd like to do win this one too.
So, how can you guys help out?
Simple.
1) Just purchase a measley priced $8 ticket from me, Cory, Scott, or Jesse ($2 cheaper than at the door).
2) Let Trace The Veins rock your unknowing faces off.
3) With what face you have left from said "Face-Rocking", make lots of noise for us when asked what band you liked better.
Simple.
And, as if life couldn't get any sweeter, we are organizing at least 2 carpools so you don't have to drive.
So, if you're interested in coming to the show you can reply to this bulletin, message any of our Myspace accounts, or give me a call.
734 536 3371
Thanks for your guys' support,
Kevin

12:21 pm - "The Only Real Drug Problem Is Scoring Real Good Drugs"
|
Hi.
So, I was sitting around doing nothing like usual, fucking around on the internet...
I guess that there are a couple of relatively recentley discovered proteins that the scientists whom discovered them decided to name them off of video game characters.
Sonic Hedgehog Homolog.
"Sonic hedgehog homolog (SHH) is one of three proteins in the mammalian hedgehog family, the others being desert hedgehog (DHH) and Indian hedgehog (IHH). SHH is the best studied ligand of the hedgehog signaling pathway. It plays a key role in regulating vertebrate organogenesis, such as in the growth of digits on limbs and organization of the brain. Sonic hedgehog is the best established example of a morphogen as defined by Lewis Wolpert's French flag model—a molecule that diffuses to form a concentration gradient and has different effects on the cells of the developing embryo depending on its concentration. SHH remains important in the adult. It controls cell division of adult stem cells and has been implicated in development of some cancers."
Pikachurin.
"Pikachurin is an extracellular matrix-like retinal protein first described in 2008 in Japan by Shigeru Sato et al., and named after Pikachu, the highly popular and official mascot of Pokémon.[1] The protein is colocalized with both dystrophin and dystroglycan at the ribbon synapses. Pikachurin is necessary for the eyes to track moving objects, and Pikachurin-null mice were unable to track moving objects with their eyes. Pikachurin is a dystroglycan-interacting protein which has an essential role in the precise interactions between the photoreceptor ribbon synapse and the bipolar dendrites."

9:09 pm - "Your Throat, I Take That."
|
Whooo! I update still.
So, lets see.
1)I've spent the last month doing absolutely nothing. I applied at Coca Cola Enterprises to get my job back as a full-time Merchandiser. That should be as fun as a lynching. At least it pays well.
2)I have played way too many video games. I rented Bioshock and enjoyed it an unbelievable amount. I also got to download the Resident Evil 5 demo. Amazing.
3)I helped Dave move into his apartment and then him, Angela, and I hung out and played "What The Fuck?!" while drinking Cherry Lemons.
4)I hung out with Mark and drank Cherry Lemons. We played Skate 2, Left 4 Dead, and watched the Resident Evil CG movie.
5)I am filling in on bass with Trace The Veins and kicking much ass. I don't suck at bass anymore. Thank God.
6)I'm trying to apply to University of Michigan as a transfer student. The deadline is this Sunday, I haven't finished my stupid essays because I'm the perfect picture of procrastination.
7)Angela and I are having a tattoo party at my house with our wonderful friend Sara doing the tattooing. So, if you think the stuff on my arms is pretty okay, then get something done for cheap at the party. Also, Trace The Veins might play. I don't know. Maybe.

12:31 pm - "Every night it's just the same. She been a fuckin' with my brain..."
|
Fuck!
So I missed registration because in spite of my last ditch attempts to straighten out my $4000+ charge from last semester, it didn't go through in time. So I am not registered for classes. Which means I am not a full-time student, effectively retracting the scholarship that made barely affording attending UDM possible.
In the long run this is ultimately my fault for being so horribly awful at time management I wasn't able to get my shit together in aspects outside of trying not to fail my classes last semester.
Either way, I'm not trying to make this some kind of pity party (as it must have seemed for about the last 4 days or so).
I just wanna let the few really good friends I made at UDM know that they were in fact that. Even though I will not be around on the UDM campus anymore (besides visiting or parties or something), it would be awesome to you all around.
Alex Repeck and Josh Gallihugh, you guys are pretty much the best friends I could've had at UDM. Thanks for letting me crash on your couch and listen to my nonsense bullshit. I need your guys' Gamertags on X-Box Live (mine's Godisasock71)
Sam Reiter, you are the nicest motherfucker that I know. Thanks for taking the initiative to talk to me regardless of that fact that I was so intraverted in freshman year I wouldn't have talked to anyone at that point.
Peter Sutherland, you are the kickest ass roomate I could ever have. I thought that my roomate was going to suck, but you blew that bullshit outta the water. Thanks for being one of the most unique and friendly bastards I've ever met.
AJ, we don't really hang out at all. Regardless, it was cool of you to befriend me my first night on campus and send a realization to me that everyone on the UDM campus isn't going to be a tool. Thanks, really.
Joe Al-Kirwi, you were fucking awesome. Too bad you moved to Texas. I enjoyed listening to music way too loud in your room and pissing off Rob and Joe. Awesome.
Kappa Delta Rho, although I was only an active brother for less than a calendar year, it was awesome to be a part of an organization like yourselves. I not exactly sure of what is going on with my status in KDR now that I'm not a student at UDM if one of you guys reads this and knows fill me in. Anyway, the vast majority of you guys were fucking awesome, and made becoming a brother fucking worthwile. You all should know who you are...
Now that I'm not a student at UDM anymore, I was going to try to transfer last minute to Wayne State, but found that it wasn't going to happen on account of the fact that they start school Monday (and there's pretty much no way my transfer application is going to go through that quick and whatnot). Whatever.
In school-unrelated stuff, I jammed with Trace The Veins on bass and had an awesome time.
I played Rock Band 2 and think that I like it better than Guitar Hero. Shocker.
I watched Pineapple Express, thought it was awesome, wish I laughed more.
Tom Delonge, to me, is the biggest dissapointment. Ever.
I hate it when Angela works 9 hour days at Hungry Howies.
Mark got high and hung out for like 8 hours yesterday.
We watched hockey, which is weird because I don't usually watch sports. I usually comment on what little I know about them.
There's no cereal in my house.
I had a sugar-free Jell-O cup for breakfast. It tasted like cough syrup.
My phone cannot hold a fucking charge, whatsoever...
My phone number is 734 536 3371
It's definately not 734 536 4282 or 734 536 4283
The Impossibles should have stuck around longer and Rory should've quit music after Slowreader.
Anyone who listens to Hit The Lights should be shot.
The same goes for Soulja Boy, Paramore, Dave Matthews Band, The Casualties, and other music I don't like/approve of because I know everything there is to know about music. Haha.
So, I am now schooless until Fall. This sucks, but I'll make it as good as worthwile as possible. I should probably shave my beard and get a job...

4:58 pm - "We're going to Steak Night. We're going to eat it right. Steak is such a treat. It's the world's.."
|
So I've decided that I'm going to try to write in this mabobber more often (which means I'll probably write shitty shit all the time for a week or so, then never write in it again).
Watched Scrubs last night and it was awesome. Except for the fact that Courtney Cox decided to cunt out and fire Janitor (What the fuck!?).
 = 
After that I ate some carrot cake and got really sleepy.
This morning I woke up and took a shower and that was awesome because we finally have a bathroom door again (for the past 2 months we've just had a sheet hanging over the door frame, which was prone to failing when someone was showering or making two-sies). But, we have a door! Awesome.
After my shower, my mom made Angela and I eggs, bacon, cinnamon bread, and coffee with Bailey's as creamer. Declicious.
After that I blanked out and played Alien Hominid for an hour or so. Let me tell you, that is one fucking hard game. I mean, at first glance it's all like "Hey, it's an old-style side scrolling platform shooter. How hard can it be?" Fucking hard. I defy any casual gamer to beat that game without having to reload it after the Game Over screen. I know that someone will eventually tell me "Well, Kevin. I did beat it without getting a Game Over screen. You just suck" Then, I will say "Well you're either a fucking loser or you're fucking lying. Asshole".
While I'm on the subject of video games I finally get to play because I have a 360. I think Grand Theft Auto IV's Liberty City Hardcore radio station is fucking intense.
In addition, I am totally bummed that I spent $100 towards getting Guitar Hero World Tour. I'm kind of sick of Guitar Hero. What's cool about it though is that it has NOFX's Soul Doubt on it. And, it has some kind of studio software in it (which my brother Kyle uses to track drums and play while he's writing music. Interesting).
After Angela got out of the shower we went up to UDM to see if I could get my financial situation all figured out. Turns out, the tax forms I gave them were the wrong ones (of course). So, I have to get the right ones to them soon. Unfortunately, registration closes on Saturday. I'm fucked, I think. I dunno. Wayne State might be pretty cool. Their logo looks like the Wu-Tang logo. And, they have a good mortuary school. Hmmm.
I tried to legitimately play bass today to prepare for my filling in at Corey's Trace The Veins show. I realized that besides the couple of Primus songs I know and the little bit of fucking around that I do here and there, that I realize I don't know shit. I mean, yeah it's possible to know how to play guitar and play bass. But there's really a finesse involved with playing bass well. I don't have that. Hmmm.
 +  = 
I feel sick and wish I had money to rent Pineapple Express.

8:23 pm - "There's No Such Thing As Halfway Crooks!"

So...
What's the happi-hap?
What's going on?
How've you been?
Ca va?
My life hasn't gotten one bit more exciting since the last time I've updated. Which for the life of me I cannot remember when it was.
I started my Junior year at UDM this past September. Let me add the fact that I did absolutely fucking horrible in my classes. I mean, there are a lot of different things that could be attributed to this shitty performance in classes:
It may have to do with the fact that I decided to live at home for the semester in order to avoid having to pay $4000 that semester to live in a dorm. But, this was proven to be a horrible idea. For instance, I had to commute with no job, high gas prices, and a van that gets 13 miles to the gallon. I also had a hard time getting motivated to do homework at my house because I couldn't find a minute to myself (my family, Charlie doing renovations to the house). I didn't go to class a lot. A LOT! This was either because I had no gas to go, or because I simply didn't want to because I hate driving soooo much.
I almost solved my gas money problem by getting a job at Dominos Pizzaria. However I got fired after working twice because I skipped work and school to go to New York with Angela, Dave Guastella, and Brett Pollington. There's pictures but I'm not showing them to you.
I had the following classes:
Intro to French: I got a B in that class and showed up less than once a week.
Intro to Religious Studies: I got a B in that class and showed up once a week.
Physics: I failed that class. Literally. I actually went to that class all the time.
Cell Molecular Biology: I probably got a C or a D in that class. I never went to that class.
Cell Molecular Biology Lab: I probably got an A or B in that class. I missed like 5 weekly labs.
Yeah, I suck and, I'm probably on acedemic probation...
However, Christmas was fucking awesome.
My dad got me:
Wu-Tang Clan- Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers
Municipal Waste- The Art of Partying
Pulp Fiction
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
Some lumberjack shirts
Some straight-leg pants
Angela got me:
Metalocalypse Season II
The Boondocks Seasons I and II
A button up Hollister shirt
My mom and Angela got me:
An X-Box 360 with an X-Box Live Gold Membership.
Awesome.
I am bandless! Fucking Lame! Except that next month I'm playing bass for Trace The Veins at one of their shows. Cool!
I still owe UDM Thousands of dollars and am not registered for this semester (which started approximately 3 days ago). Not good!
I just read a book by a guy named Harmony Korine called "A Crack-up at the Race Riots". What the fuck?!
Dave Guastella made a script for a 6 minute long sitcom called atom bomb that I'm supposed to be in. Weird.
Mitch Clem finally updated "My Stupid Life".
Scrubs season 8 is finally premering tonight. Nice.
I have fucking writers block.
Shut up!
Okay...

10:26 am - "I'm On The Tweek Again..."
|
So I was sitting there the other day watching my girlfriend change the oil in my car, and I was getting pissed because she kept struggling when she tried to unscrew the filter. I was even more pissed than usual because I was playing videogames as I supervised her from inside the house, until I finally had to put the controller down and go outside to yell at her.
I stood out there in my underwear on a Saturday morning screaming at the top of my lungs. Then my neighbor, who's a total pussy, comes by and says "you shouldn't be yelling at your girlfriend like that." I wasn't going to stand there and just take it, so I socked him one right in the colon. His wife was bringing groceries inside when this happened, and as if it wasn't bad enough that I had to stop playing video games to go outside and yell, now this bitch was screaming at me like it was my fault.
I couldn't understand what she was shrieking about, as she was flapping her arms in the air and screaming. She started crying when she saw the busted colon I gave her pussy husband, so she took one of her shoes off and threw it at me. I caught the shoe between my pecs and I started to laugh like a pirate. Then she started walking towards me to take her shoe back, and there was no way I was going to let this bitch get near my chest so I body slammed her into a cactus that happened to be there. She got up and was uglier than before, so I did what I always do when women start to cry: I went back inside to play video games.
That wasn't the end of it though, it turns out the cranky old hag across the street saw all of this going on, so she came over to do what women do best: bitch. When I opened the door she was standing there in a partly transparent night gown, and it totally ruined the prospect of having a boner for at least 50 years. I was just starting to change my mind about the night gown when she started screeching at me and her stupid cat that she was holding started to hiss. So I took the cat and punted it over my neighbor's fence. She started crying "oh no! My cat! What have you done with my cat?!" I was laughing my ass off, then the bitch tried to scratch me so I gave her a round house kick and dislocated her hip. I was laughing so hard I shit my pants.

30) Biggest pet peeve? When people trivialize peoples cultures, as if it's funny or strange.
31) In one word, how would you describe yourself? Awkward.
32) Do you believe/appreciate romance? Very much so. I'm that weird guy that says "That's beautiful" when I hear someone tell me they have a great relationship.
33) Favourite and least favourite food? My favorite food is Linguini topped with garlic and olive oil. My least favorite food is Manwich.
34) Do you believe in God? Yes. But, the relationship is kind of strained right now.
35) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you? Sure.

3:10 pm - "Fashion Before Passion!"
|
Today, I read an article about Matt Skiba/Alkaline Trio and Satansim...
It kind of lead towards talking about fashion and shit...
"The Church of Satan was something, aesthetically, that we were always really fascinated with and wanted to emulate," he said. "I think it's a good look. I think we're pretty sharp dressers and, to see some of the more popular bands today maybe biting our style a little bit, at least it's good bands doing it. If anything, it's flattering and, in some ways, it makes our job a little more interesting. We have to kind of, I guess, reinvent our style a little bit. We've been wearing black and red clothes and eyeliner for years and there's maybe some bands that are just starting to do that. We just have to keep looking for new duds."
I don't know, but, reading this kind of upsets me. I mean for someone who sang on the H2O song, "What Happened", to be getting this serious about the way he dresses is kind of unexpected and annoying to me. Don't you think he'd have a beef with people who took "Fashion before passion"? Instead, he's almost embracing this.
"When it began, for those who don't know it didn't matter how you looked or what you wore to a show."
"But now the biggest part is all about the image and not the art. Fashion before passion!"
What the fuck, Matt Skiba?

Yeah, my summer was so fuckin' uneventful...
. I worked at Coke.
. I was not "Ballin'" (Contrary to what I may have claimed or what some may have thought).
. I became friends with Brian Susewitz, again, after four months of not speaking.
. I bought a Wii (though, I previously claimed I was not "Ballin'").
. I injured my wrist twice working at Coca Cola.
. I bought a Behringer guitar cabinet for $150 off of my previous guitarist/drummer, Henry (though, I previously claimed I was not "Ballin'").
. I lost 20 pounds working at Coca Cola (170. Whoo-Hoo.).
. I did not go to Warped Tour.
. I quit Coke (kind of).
. I became friends with Dave, again, after eight months of not speaking.
. I saw The Dark Knight and loved it (as if this comes off as much of a surprise).
. I got into contact with Mark.
. I took part in Binge Week 2008 at Mark's house.
. Angela and I experienced 2.5 wonderful years of being together (the 5th of this month).
. Finally got my financial situation at UDM figured out and was able to register for classes this Fall.
. My classes are Cell/Molecular Biology Lecture and Lab; Intro To French; Intro To Religion; General Physics lecture and Lab.
. I organized my CD collection.
. I recieved workman's compensation for a wrist injury at Coca Cola.
. Mark, Henry and I reformed The Centrefolds.
. I have not gone to a single show this summer (despite the fact that there were a million and one fuckin' amazing shows happening this summer).
. I don't think summer was that bad.

|
So,
My fraternity (Kappa Delta Rho) won UDM's Greek Week 2008.
Whoo.
I tried to try out for the band, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, as a vocalist. I think they're ignoring me. Lame...
Just a couple more weeks to go before I leave the confines of college life for the summer, and enter fabulous life of manual labor.
Could life get sweeter?
