Add that to the fact that historically you've not been the biggest fan of comments from me (see previous comment about shaking in my boots) and I'm sure you can imagine that I only vaguely hope to get a comment through your filter, especially on this topic. :)<br /><br />I'm definitely not kissing up. I sat behind you on the drums not just because you let me, but because it was some great music, both the cover choices and the originals.<br /><br />And for fear of being written out of such a treasured period of my own life... Handsome, definitely handsome, especially in your leather pants, although I bet I'm actually the last person you'd really want to hear that from. (I wonder what the origin of that word is? BTW) <br /><br />So much for anonymity...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33218373.post-17376853018672654212006-12-08T09:15:00.000-06:002006-12-08T09:15:00.000-06:00Marie: Yup.

I had thought you might wait until I had reached the part of the narrative where you joined the band before chiming in. Ah, well. And as you may know, you can knock on my door trying to get vocals, but that doesn't mean I'll let you in. (See Six Weird Things, from earlier this week.) Nice kissing up, by the way. "Talented and pretty darn good...?" What about handsome? Why do people never remember handsome?<br /><br />Ms. Burden: Thanks for allowing the blog trade winds to blow you to my shore. I'll make a note to try to be substantial.

Cool.
1) Ian... Good call on the case. ...Hey Hey!<br /><br />Cool.<br /><br />1) Ian... Good call on the case. I too will forever consider it map of july, fronted by the oh so talented and pretty darn good guy maht wells, with the always interesting and out-of-control kind and gentle Ian, my buddy who makes me cry with his solos Craig and with silly me sitting in the back biting my tongue and shaking in my boots wondering what maht's going to say when he gets to... me.<br /><br />2)Uh oh... careful with my hopes... and... Hiatus? I thought you said "They Hate Us!" :)<br /><br />3) Yeh... I still occasionally listen to our rough mixes and dream of the time when I can work them into a state that will convince y'all to get back on the horse. Don't forget I'm gonna come knocking on your door some day for some vocals! And don't forget those were some good songs and arrangements we came up with. <br /><br />Also... Please... If you ever go on without me... I don't even want to know. Please spare me that anguish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33218373.post-37726012473674114272006-12-07T06:56:00.000-06:002006-12-07T06:56:00.000-06:00Singing and writing your own songs is the best thi...Singing and writing your own songs is the best thing.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507037483019197630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33218373.post-22454532222518181912006-12-06T21:59:00.000-06:002006-12-06T21:59:00.000-06:00Julia: Thanks.

Which I guess is what caps are for. 2: Perhaps you're right. 3: It was big to us, and that's the perspective I'm using to write about it. Changed my life forever and all. And I hope you never throw anything away from moj.<br /><br />SilverNeurotic: There are other magical moments in the life of a band, but I suppose that's the one which can never be recreated.The Moon Toppleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12717446064777879248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33218373.post-13074461085160955472006-12-06T11:17:00.000-06:002006-12-06T11:17:00.000-06:00Though I have never been in a band, I would imagin...Though I have never been in a band, I would imagine that the most exciting thing that can happen is that first time you play some original tunes together and you realize..."Yeah, this could actually work!"Nikki Neurotichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699784181113365713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33218373.post-29176253389190226422006-12-06T10:28:00.000-06:002006-12-06T10:28:00.000-06:00First - I feel some obligation to point out that i...First - I feel some obligation to point out that it is not "Map of July" but "map of july" - as I'm sure you pointed out to me many, many times. (Please imagine my goofy smile as I say this)<br /><br />Second - what's this about breaking up?!? I thought we were just on an extended hiatus?!?!<br /><br />Third - anything else I would attempt to say about my memories of map of july at this juncture would still sound incredibly sappy. Which is probably inappropriate for any band that hasn't actually reached the level of fame and pathos to justify a VH1 Behind The Music Special. But what is it, a year and half since we went on "hiatus"? I still miss it and have yet to throw out or sell anything from the 'glory days.'Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33218373.post-47698166634150844952006-12-06T09:20:00.000-06:002006-12-06T09:20:00.000-06:00Nice post.
