| The Vangardes |

The Adventures of Ryan and Mike formally named Brenna and the Schiffenmachers is now under the title: The Vangardes. We're going to get this thing back on the road again, writing 10-12 songs this weekend. We're going to be playing in a few weeks at Crossroads again. This time there will be only 3-5 bands so we'll actually have time to setup correctly this time instead of having Ryan's vocals completely out of the mix and my guitar fluctuating from too loud to silent on lead parts. We're looking into taking in a drummer and a bassist just for this show. And if that falls through we're going to take my brothers band to join us.
I highly recommend a band called Galaxie 500. They're marvelous. |

And so this is Christmas. It snuck up on a lot of people I think. I'm not sure if that's a good thing. I'd assume so because if you devote so much of your life to anticipation for material, it drains on you, taking up a sizeable chunk of your life.
But it's all a hypocrisy, I say I hate materialism but when my parents compete to get me a better christmas gift(just thinking about this competition makes me sick) and I get a Sitar, some recording shit and a new amplifier, I can't really complain. I think this is because even though money may not mean much to me or just not as much as other things in life, it means something to the people who gave me these gifts. It means things like time, energy and sacrifice. But then think and ask yourself if they would have given a gift if it weren't expected by social expectations.
Sitar, recording shit and a new amplifier aside, I woulda thrown it all into a pile of burning material to spend some more time with a friend of mine. Cliche aside, this is because time with her is time that feels more real, more worthwhile and more of what I want in life and in spending time with others. Another cliche aside, sorrow and sadness will lead to some excellent songs. Hopefullness of future in college will lead to some excellent songs. And general loving of the hard to love will lead to some excellent songs.
Life is an excellent song. |

I'm ____. Only one person reads this thing but I write in it anyway for a reason unexplainable. I am fully aware they are the only one who reads it and that 9 times out of 10 it's something negative about them. I am lame. I write pathetic poetry symbolizing how I'm feeling, usually apathetic. |
