Greatest Arcade Fire Moments of 2010 #1
-And Finally the greatest moment in my opinion, Arcade Fire on Saturday Night Live. The digital short was incredible as well as their performance of We Used To Wait and Sprawl II.

EVERYTHING IS ON FIRE
wirrow first Released this song back in the springtime. The first thing I did after I heard it was email dan, saying “I found your new favorite song.” He and I share a love for the pleasantly repetitive.
Other musicians added to it, PixelPilgrim and ChenelyWelly added to wirrow’s vocals from the female persuasion. Nels Cline played hot guitar....

New Orleans
I ate some ridiculously delicious gumbo for dinner last night.
I got in to see Trombone Shorty at the House of Blues. (They didn’t even card me!)
I ate beignets at Cafe du Monde for breakfast.
A street musician let me “play” his trombone for a picture.
Ok. I’m sold. I haven’t even seen Tulane yet, but I’m ready to move here. The people are so nice, the city...

X-mas Presents
So this year, I decided that Christmas really shouldn’t be about spending money on gifts, but I wanted to do something to show people how thankful I am for them (plus I’m cheap, and college is gunna suck the life out of my wallet). So I decided to make people gifts. Unfortunately these gifts require the use of things on my dinosaur of a computer. So I am currently trying to transfer...

A Lame Attempt at Poetry.
I lie in bed.
It fills my ears.
Takes over my body.
Takes over my soul.
Pulses through to my toes.
Boom Boom.
Tingle.
It creeps into my dreams.
Fills my mind with ideas, concepts, and visions.
Protects me from my own thoughts.
Not as a distraction.
But as an escape.
An escape into a new world.
Into someone else’s thoughts.
Can’t imagine a world without it.
Loneliness. Darkness.
Silence.
writing poetry.
writing lyrics.
writing music.
I’ve realized how awful I am at all of these things. Within the next couple of months, my goal is to practice writing one of these three things every night. I’ll try posting the best ones (hopefully I’ll get something good out of this). I just think it’s bad that I have such trouble expressing exactly how I feel, and I need...
Music
I’ve been giving music a lot of time and thought lately. I’ve never really considered being a musician as a career, but recently, everything I’ve been doing, or at least everything I’ve wanted to do, has related to music. I play sax for about 3 and a half hours everyday at school. I’m joining a jazz combo tomorrow (this one may actually happen this time!). I started...
What I Really Want
This year, my family and I decided not to give each other Christmas gifts. Instead, we’re getting on a plane and heading to New Orleans to check out my potentially future school, Tulane University. I couldn’t be more excited if I tried. I really want to get away from this town, away from the responsibility for a while, away from the drama, away from the people that bring me down....
