one of those boring entries, but dont worry i have some fancy ones coming up for those hxc lurkers

~

id say not a lot is going on with the band- but thats pretty much a lie because everything is, it seems like whenever were overseas things get crazy, and that isnt an insult to the overseas fans or anything at all but like first of all the thing with hot topic and all and then while we were out here we were made to lip sync and not play live for this "friday night project" show while we were in the uk, the producers told us it was going to be prerecorded so i wrote "almost live music!" on my hand and made sure to show it clear when the camera was on me "singing". i am sure you guys are little internerds and can find a better copy to post me a link to but for now is what im talking about.

anyways the thing with hot topic... i should point this out since it is something i cant say on the site for legal reasons (and itd get deleted) and the fact id hear about it for days on my voicemail blah blah blah but island pretty much fucked us over and now we cant have our cd sold at hot topic. i know this may not seem bad or much to anyone- but keep reading.

they went behind our back and signed a deal a while ago with aeropostle or postal?.. whatever it is i wouldnt be caught dead in that store (or old navy or banana republic.... pst...all are ran/owned by the same people). what was the deal? oh... theyll sell our cd for $10 and you get a when you buy it so thats gonna entice a lot of people to buy our cd there. the thing is we dont get any money from it, our manager doesnt, no one but aeropostle and island. the way it ties into hot topic was part of the contract was the cd couldnt be sold at any other retail/clothing store or whatever like at the mall like so not hot topic, not gap, not anything like that. i guess all i can ask since i cant post it on the site is get the word out, make sure all your friends that are fans know not to buy the cd there. i am so glad so many of you read this its the only way i can get the word out legally without it being illegal. hehe.

anyways tonight we record "leaked in london" as a bonus for people that buy our cd, like an ep. its our last show until the "infinity on flight 206" tour which is one day but we hit la, chicago and new york all on the day the cd is released. im hoping to god i can stomach three flights in one day cause i wont lie, the thought alone is making me pretty queasy. anyways so tonight were gonna play some live songs most people dont really recognize and wouldnt expect. were still actually talking it over, what would be best to do. like if we play old songs hardly anyone knows them and wont bother listening to it- but if we play new songs weve played those live anyway. so were just gonna have to surprise everyone.

im thinking of transferring over some old entries soon to keep in this journal so if you get a little confused or whatever- dont.

but enough about me. i kinda miss answering random questions so if you ever have any go for it and ask here. osmetimes they dont show through on the site, and its harder for me to ignore them here hehe. its about 7am here. that means i might go to bed soon or pull another two nighter.

xxoo

ps- sometimes i dont have the right words to say it, or enough of them, so ill just say it bluntly- i miss you. i keep thinking back to me and you. mostly you.
