I was using the glam/new age/grunge thing as an analogy. What I'm saying is I want a scene shattering revolution - the grunge to this glam/new age scene we're in.

Many times I feel there's a complete lack of effort on the part of my other bandmates (one in particular), and it's extremely frustrating. Every second I think about the band I feel that I'm pulling the vast majority of the weight. However, I am the main creative force behind the songs - they're my baby. The band is a big part of my identity, whether people give a fuck or not. As much as it bothers me at times I plainly and simply cannot "leave" since another lineup just wouldn't be the same. The annoyance of a lack of devotion does not outweigh the creative release the band provides, for better or for worse. Basically, it's not worth quitting.

The hang is very important in a band, and luckily we have it down. We're all very good friends. But business is business. I personally find shit gear completely inexcusable, and no desire even worse. You need to prioritize your feelings - is your creative release outweighing the frustration? I can't answer that question for you.

That rant in the economy/bass price blog is a very good preview of what the last blog is going to be like.

I've been done school for about a month now and I officially know that I can't unravel. I can't just sit back and rest and feel good doing it - need to keep myself busy. I hope to release the album in mid-July but that's out of my hands at the moment. Gotta wait for things to fall into place.

What's going on in your area?
