Day 2 and with 4 songs done yesterday Potholes, Lucky Landing, Breathe In/Out, The Man Who Thought He Looked Like Himeself (But didn't), we thought we were great! Got Amongst Flowers done this morning and then i left to play a GAA match leaving the kick drum plugged out for poor Liam to find out after a good few great takes of five four. Then the neighbours behind us obviosly got a little bit pissed off with the constant banging and turned on Country FM full blast in their shed to piss us off - Very mature of them i thought! In the end we only got 2 done. Bring on tomorrow.
Kev I've been here for two fucking days now and I've only received an offer of a beer now! Screw you guys, I'm going home. All the traffic lights in Ireland are controlled by the mega cow. The mega cow grazes on a floating Island hovering over the M50 motorway. Which is ironic as there are no traffic lights on motorways. One day she will eat all the grass and we'll all be rightly fucked won't we? Ste out That's how I role. |

| 6th May - Recording EP |
First day of recording the drums for the new EP, an f-ing disaster. Just got set up, everything ready to go. And this happened.
You might ask what a big heavy whore of a power hose is doing precariously placed above all our expensive gear. Well I don't know what to tell you. Luckily enough the computer wasn't damaged, just the screen so we could carry on with the recording. On the plus side yer man Elvis took this opportunity to return from the dead in the form of the said gammed up screen. Might make for some album art.
What is this?
Nothing, thats what! Its not a snips, nor is it a tweezers. It just mashes things. What possible reason is there for mashing things, these days anyway. Here… eh, what even is this? New topic on our forum.
The Liam It's fucking stupid that's what it is. Anyone got any small potatoes? Ste I forgot just how boring recording can be. And what makes it worse, my hangover seems to be kicking in - nice one. Liam has packed it in already - Light weight!!! Kev Sour butter buttox and the dangle-berries from Uranus Tiddly gooch, tiddly gooch My oh my you're a tiddly gooch Tiddly gooch loves lots of bananas Tiddly gooch lives for the drama, Tiddly, wrinkley you've funny neighbours, Plump garden hose, hairy potatoes, Stinky brown well, you're in constant danger, Who are these angels who live in your nose, Their customs are new to me, They worship a dandruff ridden a dangle-berry Sticky little bastards who never let go Your granny is in her nip, Sour butter buttocks Put her to sleep Put that bitch to sleep. I really, really hate that stupid fucking bitch! But I find comfort in the knowledge that if I wanted to, I could cut her ugly fucking face open with the but end of a rusty spoon. What a stupid fucking poem. I should be ashamed of myself, but I'm not. So here's another: What's the story with your head? Your contradictory sense of nationality is nearly as baffleing As your contradictory body parts! Ray Shah, Ray Shah, What's the story with you're head? Is it big or is it small? It's by far the smallest, massive, shiniest noggin I've ever come across. I hope you get so ill that you get hit by a speeding tank. Ste This is Mick, I rule.
