Negligence

Two Gallants

So I have yet to post to the blog in many hours. It didn't want to do pictures. Stupid Picasa.

I am sorry.

Got the new Two Gallants album - eponymous, nicely - in the mail the other day. It's got some real gems on it, naturally. Recorded in the Tenderloin of all places.

I think law school is going to be okay. Everything in moderation, including both studiousness and negligence. I can't study all the time. At a certain point I have to acknowledge that I'm doing more than enough studying, take some time off, relax, spend time with my friends, watch a DVD, walk through the park, bang on my djembe, whatever.

I don't wanna work;
I just wanna bang on my drum all day

Does anyone else have a particular song lyric that sums up how they are feeling at this moment?

Music Studio Haiku

Squat in the middle of one of the most gorgeous music studios I could imagine. Blue-bottle condenser mic, Yamaha ES8 Motif keyboard/synthesizer, 44-INCH SCREEN ... nasty, nasty things could be perpetrated in a place like this.

Nasty like 5-7-5 nasty.

Gorgeous microphone,
Blue cylinder waiting there
Waiting to be burnt

Keys all in a row,
Weighted, sensing every touch
Won't you touch them? Please?

I am in Los Angeles. La La Land. Hell. Someone please, pray for my salvation. Law school is only days away.

And if you're in LA ... holla!
