Roll Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup!

November 11th, 2009 (11:06 am)

http://www.quickstopentertainment.com/2009/11/11/musical-myspace-tour-1/

So I've started writing a regular-ish music column.

Now this is separate to the the hip-hop reviews I'll be doing for NeedCoffee.com (which are a little thin on the ground) but is something I was thinking about doing for a while.

Essentially, we all get MySpace friend invites from complete strangers on a regular basis. Everyone does. Constantly. And for the most part it's been an easy thing for bands to do and a bit of a nuisance for the rest of us.

It's pay back time.

I will be reviewing in full, ALL bands who try to add me as a friend on MySpace. For better or for worse. Mostly worse.

If you're a band and want to risk my wrath for the chance of having a couple thousand of people read about you on QuickStopEntertainment.com you can try your luck at:

Go on, I dare you.

I always forget to update here. I apologise.
I do however update www.twitter.com/aaronfever a lot and there's is facebook and there is MySpace and then there are the forums I frequent...

It's hard to fit in a life to blog about with all these sites.

Recently I wrote a Halloween artice for NeedCoffee.com
http://www.needcoffee.com/2009/10/31/halloween-ireland/
It's all about the history of the day and how a lot of it came from Ireland.
NeedCoffee always go guns blazing for Halloween and if you missed some of the great stuff you should browse around.

I recently moved into a new apartment with my girlfriend. Things got rocky between us at one stage so I'm a little in shock we got this far. But we have and I'm happy to be here.
Although I hate landlords. All of them.

The not too distant trip to the states went well for me in a "got to see some good friends" sense but was a disaster professionally. I won't go into details but I was let down.
Life goes on but I'm stalling on projects due to the house move and the little blow to my ego.
There has been a comedy vid planned for Christmas so fingers crossed I can get my act together by then.

Good people Paul & Storm and hairy man Jonathan Coulton are coming to town this week. I've been helping them with their merch so if you're going to the Dublin gig on Nov 6 in the Acadamy 2 you'll see me.
Very possibly with a smile on my face.

Work is busy so I'll end this now.
HELLO!

I'm going to let them all speak for themselves, but please have a look-see.
Neither of them are longer than 5 mins and they give you an idea of what I've been doing over the last few weeks.

Ringing In My Ears: Dana Snyder singing "Oh Holy Night" in a booth

Spent some time with my favourite people in Texas.
The Tastydactyls have released a new CD.
I haven't gotten one yet but I recommend you go get it at their store, because it's worth listening.

Here is a video a made of the launch and the fun I had that day at it.

Outside of all that I've managed to squeeze some extra time to go to America once again.
First I'll be stopping off in Texas to check out good friends and musical gods The Tastydactyls as they launch their new EP "We Do" on the 30th of August at Art Ambush in Waco.
Go check them out if you love good music, you'll be able to get all the details you need, plus a teaser for the EP at their MySpace page

Then, on labor day weekend, I'll be stepping out in Atlanta once more for Dragon*Con.

But that's a whole other kettle of fish, so I'll update you on that closer to it. There is plenty involved.

So now that I've spent a ridiculous amount of money on film equipment, I thought I might keep people informed on what I'm doing with it. And this is the first thing.
For anyone who doesnt know, I've been trying to make some videos for The this is the first which I will hope can cut the mustard, it's based on a loved up robot named Glenn. I made the outfit out of cardboard and it's a bitch to get on. I thought I would demonstrate such with the vid.
Enjoy!

Call Me

rushed

Latest Mood Swing: rushed

I'm always fascinated by people who say they hate answering machines.
They claim that they don't like talking to a machine or that they don't know what to say.

I feel bad for answering machines.
They get a bad rap.

They sit around all day while you're out galivanting around town.
All they want is for you to talk to them. Say a little something. Or to check in and find out if they have anything to say to you once in a while.
They are polite, they even give you a little beep to let you know they've finished talking.
They don't talk back.
They don't disturb you when you're watching something on TV. In fact, they make sure no-one does.
They don't judge you.

Answering machines are lovely. If you don't like talking to them you're a bit rude.

Ode to the prick who pickpocketed my wallet

April 8th, 2009 (09:56 am)
pissed off

Latest Mood Swing: pissed off

I hope you choke.



I'm tired of this city. It's full of scumbags.

I had a bicycle wheel thrown at me on St Patrick's day.
Someone tried to take my head off with a football before that.
Twice in the last week I've been asked to "get my dick out" by people driving by. I hope they were girls at least.
And last week, when I was walking in the sunshine, some asshole took my wallet out of my pocket.



Much like Milton in Office Space. "That's the last straw"
I'm going to burn this city down.

This is why I find myself needing to travel more and more lately.
I hate it here.

This place would be great if it wasnt for all the people.
