Government Elections are in late February and seeing as I can vote now I’m drawing up who I shall vote for. I just found out the person who was going to be my No.1 is a staunch Pro-Lifer, no exceptions *sigh* back to the drawing board again.

 

I did a little poll thing and apparently I should vote for Sinn Féin, ah no thank you, I would rather not have a recap of The Troubles again, thank you very much.

 

Ooooh “People Before Profit” sounds nice a-hard-days-night-john-6

 

Update: PBP’s aims are unrealistic, they want to abolish nearly every tax, while that does sound wonderful PBP, it’s not realistic.

This voting thing is dead tough so it is lads.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 looks like you may have to run for Parliament yourself.

Honestly – I don’t trust most politicians as far as I could throw one. They have to make so many compromises to get anything done and most have some sort of private agenda which seems far removed from what they say in public. Plus it takes so much money to get elected that they usually owe favours to the mega-rich.

I don’t believe much of Marx, but I do believe there is an ongoing class war and the workers are losing. The winners have done so well they have half of the working class believing that sensible decent sustainable Socialism in areas of market failure is somehow evil.

I’m too late for this year’s but who knows maybe in 5 years time, ASJ’s Fancy Dress Party will be running the government.

It’s a problem when too many people gotta compromise though it might be bad in a whole other way if you got too few.

Had lit class yesterday and one of the lads, who is highly eccentric, predictably unpredictable, and usually looks like a hobo (baggy clothes, shaggy mop of curls) was wearing a suit and tie in honour of our reading The Great Gatsby. I did a triple-take when I walked in the door.  a-hard-days-night-john-3a-hard-days-night-ringo-6paul-mccartney 

And he kept addressing people as ‘old sport’. a-hard-days-night-john-6 

In other news, our ‘band‘ is in need of a name. This is what I’ve thought of so far: 

  • Mr Graves’s Undead Live Band (after the teacher’s name, and one of the lads likes zombies, but I don’t think I’d go with it) 
  • Bananajam 
  • The Inaudibles 
  • A slightly rude pun on Sgt Pepper which is not to be seriously considered under any circumstances a-hard-days-night-john-6
  • Metal Oyes Band 
  • Rubber Soul Band 
  • Cream Tangerine (Montelimaaaaaaar, ginger sling with a pineapple heaarrrrrrt) 
  • Nowhere Band 
  • The Offbeats 

That last is my personal favourite, as we are a rather eccentric bunch. a-hard-days-night-george-4

Great names you have there SG. I like the last one, too. I would give you some suggestions but I don’t have any because my friend and I are trying to think of band names ourselves and I have no idea. Liquid Hyena was my only option.

Well its been a bit of a while since I’ve been on here due to all the stuff I’ve been doing. Rehearsals for the musical have started up and all so that’s fun. No progress with that girl I like, maybe even backwards progress because she ran away from me when I tried to talk to her so I could ask her out, but my friend has a plan so she’ll help me with thisa-hard-days-night-john-6

On an upbeat note, we got to look over our transcripts a couple days ago to check for errors in last semesters classes. And on there was our ranking in the class. I am #1beatlemaniacs_02_gifbeatlemaniacs_02_gifbeatlemaniacs_02_gifI’m so chuffed about that.

Oh I also changed the pickups in my guitar and put some of the Fender 57/62 reissues in there and they sound soooo nice. I also put some aged white knobs and pup covers on it so it looks pretty much like a ’62 model now.

Anyways, that’s about it for now. I’ll try to be on more often.

Not sure The Beatless do however Apple may will sue due to how close the name is to The Beatles.

I would call my band Creme Tangerine.

Edit: It seems that it’s already a Beatles tribute band

Anna and the Suncats (because it’s not Johnny and the Moondogs). Edit: Or Anna and the Fortydogs. 

And that’s a pity about Cream Tangerine, I was going to offer it to @UnidentifiedFiendishThingy. Predictably ‘Nowhere Band’ is taken too. He can use any of the others (except The Offbeats… looks like that one’s going to be a keeper for us), though, I don’t mind. Who wouldn’t want to go around calling themselves ‘the Metal Oyes Band’? a-hard-days-night-john-6

Only if we make money off of covering them, which we won’t. Otherwise I’d be paying up every time I picked up my guitar. paul-mccartney
