show wed

we've got a show comin up which should b interestn. heroes is still reeln from lineup changes. recordins been thrown off n attendance is low cause price is high. replacements r iffy n lineup questionable. hopin we can pull it off.

shows

had a show @ scarlet n grey. wasnt bad. no pay, either way. sister came out. got a live recording made. will take a look eventually.

turmoil and whatnot. we've been working under fire and shit has been crazy. i don't really know how we can make shit work but that's the hope. sami's situation has been resolved, she's going to practice through the pregnancy. bc's got a new issue though, i no longer want him in the house. this means strictly in terms of living ehre, but still, that has its effects. the guy wasnt respectful about certain things, and it's a choice for me to have him here, a privalege for him to be here. and he didn't really take that seriously. shouting matches that led to altercations numerous times. he would not leave me or anyone else alone in the house. sometimes you need to understand that when you try to say rude crap to people, they will fight back. ultimately he was a bit of a bully. that doesnt affect his music abilities, but as a roommate, its a bad policy to have. so thats more or less that. we've got allies in the scene, helen, nathan, nick, and we need to keep expanding the repetuoure of people im pulling into this shit. ive been developing myself as an artist and continue to write and record with a variety of players. it keeps me on the ball and constantly striving for improvement. that's the way i like it. work hard, move forward and make it work.

band changes

so we're going through a transition period. there's alot up in the air, but basically like... one of our members is pregnant. that on its own is OK, but she's essentially not doing her fair share of the work within the group anymore. its for THAT reason and NOT her pregnancy that i'm essentially of the view to remove her from our group. there's another thing i've noticed, Liberti Movement's getting mentions on Pdiddy and Rihanna's twitter feeds, which is huge. Congrats to them, and I propose we make some changes to Heroes to follow in their footsteps. Firstly, haircuts, new clothes, photoshoot. We need to get on twitter and get active, making updates daily if not multiple times A day. Facebook needs something new daily.

lets sum up the proposed changes:

Given the fact that Liberti Movement has been doing so well,
and the fact that WE respect these guys for their skill and success,
and that we are a NEW band on the scene and flexible and willing to make shit work,

I propose we make a few changes
Bettering our image
Modulating our performances, backing away from the pedals and moving towards a pre-recorded show with more dynamic stage-movement
Involving a photo-shoot, or multiple shoots, more Twitter and Facebook usage,

this is an idea for something we can do with the band...

intro...

loop > drum beat > ...

baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man

[verse #1]
i sat upon the edge. when i knew you were gone. i knew you were gone. you were gone so long. -
i was miserable. i was miserable. i saw you were gone. i knew you were gone. -
i knew you were gone and i... i knew you were gone... you were gone. -
gone. i missed you cause you were my apple. you were my sweetie pie. and i didnt have you anymore. -
you were gone. oh baby you were gone. and ive gotta say i was sad to see you go. -

baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man

[verse #2]
in the summertime when the weather was fine. thats when someone crossed the line and broke my heart. i was standing on the sidelines and falling apart. -
when my girl was taken from me. i was sad as pain as can be. but she knew in her heart that she still loved.
so much pain, so much pain. so much pain. so much pain. oh its hard to explain. words are in vain. -
and i lost my baby. when the weather was fine. i knew that i was alive. but what a painful time. -

baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man

[guitar solo]

baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man
baby girl / you were taken from me. / i was miserable / i was a broken man

i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore
i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore
i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore
i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore.

verse #1
its been so long since ive felt like i could just be myself. everyday is a battle and im ready for the fight. -
people like ot pick on me. tel me what to do. but they dont know who i am. and im a chilled out guy. and im ready to stand up for who i am. -
i never let people push me around. and even if they do its never to the ground. and even if it is i still get up again. i dont get a scratch and if i do i still... -
get up and fight. cause thats whats right. thats what i do. -

i don't wanna run
no id on't wanna run anymore.
i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore.
i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore
i don't wanna run
no i don't wanna run anymore

verse #2
i was born to be a fighter. i was a survivor. i lived through so much shit. people dont give a shit about it -
but im tough as nails, in my soul, even though my body's flesh and bone. the body is somethin i own. -
im not gonna let people push me around, even if they do im not gonna let them change my ways -
and even if i do i wont let myself die in vain. and even if i do my spirit will never change -

ive seen so many people roll over and give up. im not gonna be one of them. im not gonna let them fuck me up. -
and even if htey do they wont change me in my head. i will always be the same guy lying in bed. thinkin bout the world instead -

i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore
i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore
i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore
i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore

verse#3
people assume so many things about a guy whose quiet in the way he sings, the way he talks and the shit he brings. thats the way it goes. thats the way i tgoes -
im just used to the world and who knows where ill be in 20 years or so. all i know is what i know, and where i go is just where i go. -
i just hope im not the result of peoples bullshit. i wanna be fit. i wanna be tough. fit for it. fit for life. thats right. -
i wanna have a good time, a good life. i wanna do it right. i wanna do it right. i wanna do it right. -

i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore.
i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore
i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore
i dont wanna run no i dont wanna run anymore.
