Don't Think Twice, It's All Right.

Anonymous asked: What would it take to get Squid Lips back together?

Are you going to make me an offer?

A decent reason to do it, a place to play and people who want to see a band that was around 2 years ago run through a bunch of covers and the one original they wrote?

Squid Lips was my first band.

Got into a conversation about this last night. We were so terrible.

“ When Pearl Jam released their last record, there was an article in a UK magazine that talked about how Kurt didn’t like them, like it still mattered. Like, who fucking cares whether Kurt liked Pearl Jam or not? It made me really upset, because Kurt’s not around to defend himself, but also because that was considered a stamp of approval; that one person’s opinion would matter that much. The next interview I did, I stuck up for Pearl Jam. If there’s one thing at the end of the day that will destroy music, it’s guilt. That guilt that some musicians feel that keeps them from making music, any kind of music - that you could let something so petty get in the way of making something beautiful. It really affected me, because the last time I watched Pearl Jam, I sat on the side of the stage and cried, because I thought, Wow, man. These guys survived. They fucking survived! Out of everybody else, they’re still fucking going. It made me really happy. I texted Eddie later on to tell him that it was an emotional moment for me. They survived, and they survived without the guilt and the shame. They survived on music. Dave Grohl, quoted from “Pearl Jam Twenty” (via perfumedsecrets)

My brother insisted we buy something to put over the grave we made for Wheels yesterday. Mum and Dad took him out to buy a plant and they came home with this.
I think they chose a bird bath because he spent most of his time outside sleeping and watching birds. I suppose he is doing the same thing now. hahaha

Useless by The Reflections

New emo/punk band from Newcastle, I am actually so stoked on this.

These guys fucking rule.
They are kind of like if the Dead Kennedys and Bad Brains were the same band.

With a little bit of The Stooges.

Goodbye Wheels.

Well I’m just a lonely traveler and I don’t know where I’m bound.
Though, that if I keep on moving then I know that I’ll be found.
I’ll climb high atop a mountain, call for he who holds the crown,
But until that day, keep on wanderin’

Well now, when the soul wanders there are things a man must see.
There are trials he must know and there are troubles he must meet.
He must stare in the eyes of evil and know that he is free.
‘Til the good lord calls, keep on wanderin’

Now, my father was a traveler and my mama stayed at home.
And she cried the day that he walked out and left us on our alone.
But now I’m older than he was when I was born and I don’t know,
Which way is home so I’m wanderin’

Yes, oh lord, I’ve seen your oceans, I’ve seen your mountains high.
I’ve been lost inside your cities, I’ve seen the underside.
Yeah, I know the troubles that plague a troubled mind,
But they can’t catch me I’m a wanderin’

Alkaline Trio - Nose Over Tail

I fall in love with you. I’m nose over tail for you. Your voice like the sound of sirens to a house on fire. You’re saving me.
