Moving out!

Hey guys,

So I'm beginning the packing process tonight in order to find a new home once more. It's been fun living with Kelci and her family but please listen to me when I say DO NOT MOVE IN WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND AT SUCH YOUNG AGES!!! Haha it's fun for awhile but eventually leads to nonstop stress. Wait til you're older!

So it looks like I'm moving in with Vinny, my keyboard player. This'll be fun considering he has dogs... And I love dogs more than people.

So my life as a lone wolf wanderer begins... And I'm actually ready for it.

"Conceptual paths wide open, I'm scared to death...
Extistential weight no longer holds you back.
Conceptual paths wide open I'm scared to death...
I'm ready for the future, I'm ready for what happens next."

Cheers,

Again, show on the 12th is $8 for presales and $10 at the doors. We'll deliver!

Go out and enjoy the fucking rain now, won't ya?

Show!

Hey,

So Alex won't be missing our show (great news) so we'll have the entire band there. Gonna be awesome!

I can't help but feel like a little kid going to school for the first time... This is my first show singing in front of a crowd. I'm nervous, but at the same time I'm ready. Gonna be a lot of fun for everybody that comes out!

Dammit

Hey,

So our show on the 15th is approaching rapidly... Ask for presales, you will get them.

Also, our drummer, Kyle, will not be able to play with us and will be replaced with Russ of Bad Taste and Backseat Bus Drivers. We're also going to be missing a guitar during our performance, as Alex waited until now to ask for that day off of work. I'm not going to lie, that is REALLY irritating to me.

People these days are ridiculous... it's sad.

I'm tired of the kids these days... I'm tired of flakes, fakes, liars, cheats, and everything else.

In the wise words of A Wilhelm Scream: "The Kids Can Eat a Bag of Dicks".

The times, they are a-changin'...

Hey there,

So our show at The Sanctuary is coming up quickly. We still have pre-sales for $8 (tickets at the doors will be $10), so pick yours up today, we'll deliver.

Unfortunately, our drummer Kyle will not be joining us for these shows. Instead, my good buddy Russ from Backseat Bus Drivers, Yesterday's Paper, and my sister's band Bad Taste will be filling in. He's phenomenal on the set, probably the most talented drummer I've ever seen. We're excited to be working with him.

Also, check back in after our show on November 12th (also at The Sanctuary) for some big news. Nothing necessarily bad, just some transitions being made in the band for the better.

We're pumped for these upcoming shows and hope you are too. They'll be the only two shows I really want to incorporate ska into before we dump it for good, so bring your best skanking shoes.

-Scraps & the Delinquents

P.S. Check out my old band Fester's page to hear our newly remixed album that will be available at our upcoming shows for $5.

11 tracks of face-melting skacore in which I used to drum.

DOLO DELINQUENTS SING WITH AGAINST ME!!!

SCRAPS SINGS WITH AGAINST ME!!!
That's right, I sing with Against Me! on the 3 minute 40 second mark on the video.
That's right, we're singing 'Those Anarcho Punks Are Mysterious...'.
DAMN STRAIGHT.

Forget 9/11, it's national Go Masturbat Day!!!

Hey there!

So the dudes at Onion have announced that on 9/11, all of America was not to jack off in memory of those who were killed on 9/11. So how are you supposed to get rid of all that built up tension? You jack off twice as much today! That's right, today is national GO MASTURBATE DAY!!! WOO!

So staty on your computers for today and feel free to wet your willy as much as you'd like to without feeling like a creep!

Have fun!

Busy, busy, busy!

Come support!

Also... We're recording an acoustic demo called "Folk the World" to be released before the shows. They'll be $5 a pop. Hopefully, shirts will also be printed.

On other news, been a crazy past couple of days. Lots of new music in my library and my used t-shirt collection is growing. Hoo-rah!

Come to these shows, gonna be fun.

We're playing with the likes of:
The SubTimes
The Caffiends
Infested
State of Disorder
and Go Forth & Skank

Pre-Sales: $8
Doors: $10

Woot!

Hoorah For Hangovers...

Sounds like a cool song name... haha anyways...

I've never been so fucking tired in my life. I gotta lay off the knock-out pills...
Today's a busy day. Band practice and then job interview with Smoothie King and then more band practice. All with a massive headache and back/neck pains... woot!

Been putting music on this computer for the past 14 hours... I have too many cds.

Ok, more important stuffzzz...

My band has at least three shows coming up, mentioned in the post below. Check em out on:
http://www.myspace.com/dogeatsdogska
Should be a good time for all. First Friday is also this weekend, and you know what that means... You get to help me not get a real job by buying my art and throwing change at me for playing Against Me! covers!!! Lucky you!!!

I'm off to listen to some of The Slackers and grab a Cosmic Brownie and some Coke. Have a nice day ya'll.

SHABANG! (Drew, aka Peaches, says that I need a signature at the end of each post...)

Movin' Out/Sleeping Pills

First off, my band The Dolo Delinquents (myspace.com/dogeatsdogska) has 3 upcoming shows with bands such as Infested and The SubTimes. The dates are:

October 15th: The Sanctuary (myspace.com/sanctuarylv)
October 30th: Halloween Party Show (Details TBA)
November 12th: The Sanctuary (myspace.com/sanctuarylv)

Should be a good time for all, so come and support. Tix for Oct. 15th and Nov. 12th are $10 in advance and $12 at the doors. All money earned goes towards a charity of sorts (rest assured, it's a good cause).

We're all booking some more shows, so we'll update with more as soon as we are sure about some other dates.

On other news...

I moved out of my home the other day. It's very nice, a lot less stressful and I'm a lot happier. I'm currently looking for a job, but I have an interview at Smoothie King tomorrow. Hopefully that'll go well.

Been sleeping like a baby lately... Mostly because of the stress levels going down, but also partly because of sleeping pills. Perscription sleeping pills. Bad thing is, they leave a nasty hangover in the morning... Oh well, sleep is worth it.

Can you say "exhausted"?

So yesterday was our first Dolo Delinquents practice with our new drummer, Kyle...

It was awesome. He's only 16, but man can that kid play. Way to go Kyle, thanks for becoming a part of our little family.

Aside from that, I've been walking everywhere for that past 3 days. Everywhere. I am tired... My back is covered in sweat from my backpack which is full of water and my little red notebook that I write stuff in. Everything from quotes to little journal passages and lyric ideas for songs. Gotta say, it's very handy.

Been listening to a lot of Big D lately, which is definitely bleeding through in the lyrics of our upcoming EP. I think it's gonna sound fantastic considering I'm playing with some of the most talented people I know. After a long period of time of bad news, having an awesome band practice is a breath of fresh air. Also been booking a couple shows, at least one in October and one in November. I'm stoked to begin playing shows again... Even if the crowd only consists of seven or eight little emo girls for the first couple of shows :-)

So on other news... How about that mosque that's going up? Pretty cool stuff :-) I for one don't really care much about what these folks wanna do with their land. This country, though screwed up as it is, is based upon the idea of freedom... Something that a lot of people have forgotten. I'm not an advocate of organized religion at all, but I am an advocate of personal rights and freedom to choose what to do with your life without governmental policies getting in the way of that. That is, after all, what makes me an anarchist :-)

Be safe, have fun, get off the internet and enjoy this bright and sunny day (well, it's bright and sunny in Vegas anyways)!

Peace,

Scraps

Well, Here We Go...

So I've caved in and decided to get a blog. Pretty lame, but eh, a public place where my thoughts can be expressed seems like a pretty cool idea. I'll update with whatever is on my mind, whether it be social, political, or economic issues, news about my bands, or just something that's been on my mind.
