I'm sitting here at 12:47am drinking this caramel frappicino or however you spell it, from Starbucks (AKAnothingdifferentthanpotdispensaries); Listening to a bunch of Jimi Hendrix recordings. Ones in which I've listened to a thousand times before. Thats how you know you're a good artist if someone can keep listening to your music like this. FUck this shit is good, im getting twitchy too. Mushahaha

Stuck listening to this version of Hey Joe all night. I can't get over the fact he pretty much lets everyone know what was going on at the time.

a little after 3:39 he's like "aint nobody gonna fuck with me either". I suppose he's speaking about the mafia scene and michael jefferies, etc. Then at 3:55 he says his actual final goodbye so exaustingly. It's haunting..

Peace / No Peace

I've been noticing this fasination of throwing up the Peace sign lately. People have been representing the sign of peace for looks, to modernly-reglamourize the 60's. They obsessively show the image of peace, but they act like stuck up models. As if they are a model of the 60's hippies. I could just be rrambling as I just woke up, but its been on my mind lately. When I say peace, I really mean it. No stylized image of it, I mean it to the nitty gritty.

PEACE.

Artists

I came across this website from a friends facebook page.

http://www.vangoghcomplex.com/default.html

Such an amazing site to look at. It's all art.. its all beauty from the "diseased" minds of wonderful people.

Haha, I love it. I fit right in with people like this.

I'm like a kid in a candy store when finding a group of people like my self. I've been feeling like I've been alone for so long, that its easy to understand why.

Here's a few of my favorites drawn by artists from the website.

 

Earth Goddess by: Kailey Josen

Mannequin and Cylinder by: Ashton Graves Sorrels

& I'm not quite sure what this one is called, but I can't help but admire the detail.

Pain, Substitution, Music scene

Hello self..

I am back writing, woo hoo!

I am in so much pain I can't stand up without support, can hardly, and all other kinds of limitations are abroad. I've been playing basketball alot lately. You see, well I 'aquired' a basketball hoop last week. I didnt actually just aquire it. I stole it.. It was for the good though. I have this 'communist/socialist/hero-ist-type' of thinking; Where if someone isnt using something that the youth could use, then the youth should be able to use it. Spreading the Wealth. I took the hoop for the kids of my apt complex. River Terrace Appartments, is possibly the lamest place you could live. It literally has nothing for the youngsters, nor does it have anything for people my age. So I saw this basketball hoop sitting on a drive way that I see all the time when playing at the local school, started walking home after a game, stopped by the drive way, then a friend of mine dumped the water out as I carried the entire basketball hoop on my back to the appartment complex. This thing was heavy as fuck - However my dedication withstood it.

Anyway, moving on lad..

Mary Jane and music have been my substitution for women long enough. I believe im starting to come back to the senses that I really do need a girl by my side. Idk..

I've found another music opportunity. My friend, Ryan - picked up this card when he went down to the Downtown Mall the other day. Its this card from this new indie/modern hipster store called 'Zuhg Life'. I might be able to play live in front of the store. It also definitely looks like a new chill spot. I peaked inside of the store long after it was closed on one of my late night strolls to downtown a a little while back. The first thing I've come to see was this Jimi Hendrix poster they had on display on the wall. I will definitely be going back my niggaaazzz.

Oh I might need to get a new guitar soon. My beat up Fender Squire Stratocaster Bullet is falling apart. The bypass keeps cutting off, the pickups aren't screwed in correctly, and I can't put them back in because they'll be touching the strings.. UGHHH.. I can't wait till this new job starts, first thing I buy WILL be a new guitar. Open up some credit and rent to own my dream American Standard Stratocaster, or perhaps just buy out a epiphone SG or Gibson SG for $300 from Guitar Center. Ahhh!!

Night Life

So I was here in Downtown Sacramento, CA. Born here and have been here for my life time so far. The downtown area though; Opens new discoveries. It's pretty big (big enough for me) I suppose.

It's my own little N.Y. City or L.A..

^The Beat (My favorite record shop) Came here all the time when I DJ'd.

The drama is amusing, really all I'll say. I'm sitting here waiting for my coffee to cool, and friends and I - Go on this roadtrip to the Casinos. Welp, my coffee should be done, and I'm sure my friends are waiting for me -- so it's time to make some "Mu-Lah".

Porn is Art 2

I've been studying the works of Pornography :D & It's far more artistic than the usual person knows. It's a very intimate, emotional, expressive art. It combines two individuals and connect their energies together to create a greater energy. Why, its shunned by the public is beyond my understanding. I'm aware of the "unappropriate-ness".. But really? Be mature.

Been a minute since I've last written. I'm feeling well, & independent today. I've been smoking pot all day everyday this past week or two. Before I continue that - Let me explain how I came to get so much marijuana. A friend and I found an abandoned motorcycle. Pretty new in fact.. It had only one tire so we carried it as much as we could to my friends house. The next day it was sold to another friend. In exchange we received a vial of Hash Oil, equaling up to a pound of shake, & 25 Grams of green. I think I've been smoking too much (first time it actually fits). I plan on taking a break sometime in august when moving to Ukiah. I have to make it out of the summer alive. This will be the craziest summer I've ever had. I almsot do not plan on making it out alive, but I have to. Oh, I finally found employment too. Clean up crew @ Raley's Field. Training day starts on March 12th. I'm happy and I can finally relax a tad. I've been getting better at my scale-work on guitar. I'm starting to really get the hang of the blues scales. I've gotten the Minor Penatonic Scale down by heart now. Took a while.. but yeah I got it.

Valentines Day was yesterday.. Will be honest. Didnt have a valentine, but thats fine. I'm kinda used to it haha.. Well my guitar was my valentines :( :).
