Stuff I Did And Stuff I Still Need To Do
Man, I remember the days when I used to pull up into my highschool blasting Manic Hispanic and Nofx. I was new to punk then but in some ways I was more punk than I'd ever be in my life. Everyone else was into the worst radio rock you could imagine...or some of them liked slipknot. I was the only real punk for miles and miles. But I was happy to being different. It made it harder for people to figure me out sometimes.
Today my band, Countless Attempts, is getting back together. We wrote a few new songs and one of them is about cutting the head off this bitch I hate so much named Brooke. I'd like it if we could get a recording and maybe some kid would blast our shit in his car while he's going to school. Maybe the cycle would repeat itself. Carter just wants for us to tour. That would be great. We haven't had a show since we broke up and no one around town really likes punk. We'd HAVE to tour if we wanted to find people who liked garage punk (or whatever this is we play). That's probably part of why I started God Save The Underground. It's just communication. I'm using it to find other bands that we can reach out to. That we can share our shows with. Recording, touring, hanging out with bands, this is stuff I've always wanted to do. Back when I was the kid pulling into my school blasting warped tour comps and Punk In Drublic, and Punk-o-ramas and Rancid's Out Come The Wolves, and my own mixes the whole time I knew that was the life I had to live.
