Being Human
So i’m in the studio tomorrow getting the FINAL mixdown, i’ll write about new years and christmas some other time.
Celebrity Big Brother is back on and this year i’m really into it, so in a sad way at least each day i have something to look forward too, plus Being Human is back (so fucking happy) shame that Annabel Scholey isn’t in it this time. 
Being Human is amazing and i’ve shared some great moments watching it and becoming obsessed with it, if only I had said yes to her buying me the DVD.
(I love how the light is the moon)
I hope Sov doesn’t go this week, Heidi and that fake celebrity Katia should go they don’t deserve to be there at all. Jonas is pretty awesome funny how ones perception of one person can be totally different to what they are actually like in real life. I’ve also learnt a bit more about myself this week, i’ve discovered looks matter and I want to overcome this because I know further in life it will get to me and fuck me up. 
Right i’m off to bed, CBB & Studio tomorrow, what a day!
Peace & Love
Goodnight Goodnight

Following the path of my father is not an option
Theres those perfect moments whether it is a film, tv, photo or a song where you just want to live in it. The ending to Gavin & Stacey was pretty fucking lovely to me, that made me happy. I don’t want to fuck up I want to live the picture I have in my head. I’m scared and my emotions are everywhere.
Current Status: Depressed, happy, ambitious, unrealistic
“Follow the photo live by the songs the ones that make you want to live forever no one in my eyes can do wrong.
Raise your glass to the new year shed a tear for a friend it’s easy to think but thoughts can not mend.
It’s been a while since I said I loved you but this will never fade, even when i’m where I am some far distance away.
I looked through the spyglass and what I saw was today lets live and learn and speak what we never could say.”

Let’s grab life by the throat and live it to pieces!
This weekend was amazing, Paytons birthday was on the Tuesday, got the half mastered recordings back on the Wednesday, had the photoshoot on the Friday, meal, games, fun, beer, films, snooker Nineowells on the Saturday and last but not least the climax….(Ava)Go-Karting! on the Sunday
After this weekend I don’t want to go back to the same old routine of college, band room, college, band room and then something good rarely happening. I don’t want to do media, I don’t want to waste minutes, hours, days, weeks and years only having a total of roughly 2 weeks of good times. I’m consently thinking about the many different ways to live your life and how scary it is about the vast amount of routes. As a child I remember being in primary school pointing to somewhere and saying to myself “One day I’m gonna go to that place” I want to fulfill what I want to fulfill in life (doesn’t everyone) but I don’t want to end up in a dead end job wishing of the things I could have done but took no risks and by then its too late and I’m sat in my house with my wife, children and family dog, for some people thats great and thats all they want in life but for me I want to grab life by the throat and live it to pieces.
I believe the people in my life who I genuienly believe and love will help me fulfill this, in no particular order:
Mum
Jon
Tom
Ol
Beth
“You can’t change your outfit now the night has begun. But we’ve still got the fuel, we still have the fire, so me and you, Jay, let’s never retire, let’s keep on making mistakes till we’re done. I’m going to live fast and I’m going to die old, I’m going to end my days in a house with high windows on the quiet shores in the South-West. So you sort the tunes and I’ll bring the beers, and on my seventieth birthday I’ll see you right here, and together we’ll watch the sun set. There’s no one in my coffin, there’s nothing in my grave, I’m tired of being damned, I’d rather be saved, and we can never sell out because we never bought in, and if they build it back up, then we’ll swing back through town and burn the whole thing down again. It won’t last so be bold, choose your path, show soul, live fast and die old”.
Live Fast Die Old.
I try not to mention Frank Turner in every post but fucking hell hes such a hero.
I can’t afford Christmas let alone rent or Birthdays.
I’m going to bed…..
Love Ire & Song
A teacher of mine once told me that life was just a list of disappointments and defeats, and you could only do your best. And I said: well that’s a fucking cop out, you’re just washed up and you’re tired, and when I get to your age, well, I won’t be such a coward. But these days I sit at home, I’m known to shout at my TV, and punk rock didn’t live up to what I’d hoped that it could be. And all the things that I believed with all my heart when I was young are just coasters for beers and clean surfaces for drugs, and I’ve packed all my pamphlets with my bibles at the back of the shelf.
Well it was bad enough, the feeling, the first time it hit, when you realized your parents let the world all go to shit, and that the values and ideals for which so many fought and died had been killed off in committees and left to die by the way-side. But it was worse when we turned to the kids on the left, and got let down again by some poor excuse for protest; by idiot fucking hippies in fifty different factions, locked inside some kind of sixties battle re-enactment. So I hung up my banners in disgust and I head for the door.
Oh but once we were young and we were crass enough to care, but I guess you live and learn. We won’t make that mistake again. But surely just for one day we could fight and we could win, and if only for a little while, we could insist on the impossible.
Well we’ve been a good few hours drinking, so I’m going to say what everyone’s thinking: if we’re stuck on this ship and it’s sinking, then we might as well have a parade. Because if it’s still going to hurt in the morning, and a better plan’s yet to get forming, then where’s the harm spending an evening in manning the old barricades?
So come on old friends, to the streets, let’s be 1905 but not 1917. Let’s be heroes, let’s be martyrs, let’s be radical thinkers who never have to test drive the least of their dreams. Let’s divide up the world into the damned and the saved, and ride to the valley like the old Light Brigade, and straighten our backs, and not be afraid, and they’ll celebrate our deaths with a national parade.
Leave the morning to the morning, pain can be killed with aspirin tablets and vitamin pills. But memories of hope and of glorious defeat are a little bit harder to beat.
This is all the friends I ever need gay but true.
Goodnight Goodnight xxxxxxxxxxx*11
I’m going to do whatever it takes.

Think before you jump
It’s been a while since I last wrote on my Tumblr not too much has changed apart from:
We got some studio time at G2 (Stride, Turn up the Heat + other song capo song?)
We had Xbox Live and Sky for about a 2 days until Microsoft decided to punish us and make us pay £4.99 a month
Got kicked out of English I think
Learnt a bit more about my self and what I want to be and where I want to be In life
Saw my hero LIVE
Lisa’s wonderful Wedding
(Just tried getting bullet points on and I failed)
Anywhoo my OCD is through the roof right now, no one understands it apart from Mrs. Darkness and she sucks.
The new Biffy Clyro album is pretty good
In October I had the pleasure to catch Mr. Frank Turner live at Leeds Met Uni after a little asking and following we finally found the building (even though we had been there many a time).
It was such an amazing gig inspiring and I personally believe it help bury a few past time emotions (just like The Killers at Sheffield Arena earlier on this year). Anyway it was more or less the same set list as the one a I found online apart from he played “Smiling at strangers on trains” on request.
Me and my dear uncle Jonny sang our fucking hearts out to Franks amazing tunes especially Love Ire & Song (yes we had been drinking). It was one of those gigs where you never wanted it to end EVER and it was so mind blowing we had to grab another pair of tickets for next year and possible stay at a hotel overnight!
After the gig I felt compelled to grab the acoustic and learn some of his songs, and I do have a trick up my sleeve for this years Christmas presents but I guess i’ll write about that if and when I finally do it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0KKtz_tHjk
I guess the next thing to write about which I just remembered is that of my Aunties wedding which was held in Chesterfield at some lovely big house/hotel thingy. As far as I can remember the only wedding I had ever been to is the one when I was 7 or something like that, *memorys wowza* so I was well up for this one.
It was a great day nice weather and all that jazz, it was extremely nice seeing my family all together hopefully soon I shall get the photos and then I will post them up on here. I am aware that my writing is getting shitter by the second and that I am rushing it due to the fact I am tired and very disoriantated*spell check that one*.
Upstairs where the marriage vows were taken place something very special happened just as Lisa and Andy were getting married and saying their vows the sunshine shone up over the country hills and glistened threw the window, later on Andy mentioned in his speech that the people who couldn’t make the wedding (Nanan Cookie and Andys mother; God bless) showed their acception and love by shining through the window. (If that makes any sense, if not it does to me)
After we drank lots and ate more, I ended up extrememly drunk and having a lovely conversation with Jon about music, which often happens, and sometime after he buys a new guitar I am going to teach him the basics, yay.
The next thing to happen is that Bozz got us some free recording time at G2 Studios which is literally 3 doors down from our Studio, we had to play in front of one of the engineers the a few nights before for him to get the idea what we were like and then we were off. We signed a contract with them as they were doing it for free bascially saying if we make £100 on the single then we give it them. (Oh yes its a single!) We were meant to have 1 or 2 days but ended up having about 4 oh great times they were drinking Budweiser and smoking with the guys in the Studio, this made me realise even more what I want to do with my life.
We have pretty much done, we did the 3 songs we had fully completed:
Stride
Capo song
Turn up the heat
now all we need to do is touch up the vocals and then we are done(I think)
Band is going great the music is getting stronger and a lot better, I think this new set will do very well (fingers crossed). When we’re ready we will do some warm up gigs just to make sure we don’t fuck anything up majorly live when we do it for real. Also we have got a photoshoot on the way with Andy Brown and also when the single is done its going on i-tunes and we’re getting local press.
It’s half 3 I shall write later, for now Goodnight Goodnight 11x11 xxxxxxxxxx

Kiss and control, think before thought.
My first actual post… wow.
I’m not sure what i’m meant to write and whether anyone will ever see this either.
There’s so many quotes I could put up here I think today’s quote has got to be Cage the Elephant with their song ” In One Ear “
” Here’s the moral to the story,
We don’t do it for the glory,
We don’t do it for the money,
We don’t do it for the fame
So all the critics who despise, go ahead and criticise,
It’s your tyranny that drives us, adds the fire to our flames…”
It could have been any lyrics from this song but these are the ones that catch me the most.
I am currently listening to Mr. Frank Turner, who to be honest is one of my hero’s… ( my laptop just flicked back a page for some random reason and Tumblr just saved all of this… so far I’m impressed )
…while listening to him he pacts me full of adrenaline and inspiration that just makes me want to go out there and do exactly what he does, and sooner or later I shall.
Music progression is coming on pretty well at the minute more time and more work and we shall have the set done.
I stay up so many nights all for stupid reasons whether its the fact I feel relaxed and comfortable for the first time in the day or other reasons I haven’t recognised yet, maybe I don’t want to realise them because as soon as I do it would kill it.
I watch the same programmes over and over again but don’t properly watch them just flick my eyes over to see the odd the clip because my music is I love you Spotify. I do watch the majority of TV on though just ignore the ones I’ve already seen about a thousand times due to BBC3 repeating it every single day like the fucking radio.
Haven’t seen Dad for a while, as my neighbour kindly reminded me just for the gossip factor most likely, I was just about to go but I thought I’d add this don’t know why maybe I’ll ring him soon. Oh and I got my provisional.
I’m going to bed I have flu and I could do with attempting to grow more…..
xxxxx Goodnight Goodnight xxxxxxxxxxx
( You’ll learn me but the only way to do so is by not trying and you try way too hard )
