The band post...

So the metal band, DisplaceD is going on tour this fall from the beginning of Nov till a week before Christmas. At the bottom is the schedule so far, the rest will be posted as it becomes available to me. The site for the band is www.myspace.com/displaced there is a dot com site, but it is still being built. We are touring with Flaw, who was recently signed to Roadrunner and is finishing a new album for the tour. Our record label is Chamberlain records and we will be doing our new cd next year sometime, but we will have a few new songs for our show next weekend and more for the tour. If anyone wants to come to a show, let me know, email me. We usually get a guest list at our shows and I can get a couple people on it if we get one. It's always good to know someone at a show:) and to have someone to do shots with! My pic is not on the band site yet due to weather problems with getting a photo shoot scheduled but I am on the top friends list on the band myspace and you can get a look at my ugly mug there, hahaha, Moriartty is my name there.

Hope to see some of you on the road!

Pondering's, musings, and stuff...

So I met a new chick, pretty hip kid, was working on a pet name for her, which I am really bad at, but since she likes just the top of the muffin I thought of muffin top. Then I realized that calling her that would probably get me stabbed in the piss hole so back to the drawing board. I will be putting up another post with what we have so far for the tour schedule. If anyone is interested in coming to a show when we are near your town, let me know, we usually get a small guest list so I can get a couple people in for free if we have said guest list, more on that in the band post coming this week.
I am ready to crucify my boss after Friday at work and the week as a whole. After work friday I was ready to punch someone in the neck with a broken beer bottle if I was told to calm down one more time, worked 11 hrs and everything I touched turned to shit and was a project and a half. Ripped off my patch, bought a case of beer, a steak sub, and two packs of fun sticks and sat in the garage all night playing fetch with my cat and waging a jihad on sobriety. Just once I would like to get the parts I order in the right size, quantity, and description. It would be nice to not be expected to do three days worth of shit in one day as well, but at least I have a couple hours of overtime in my check this Thursday coming up. Need some stuff for my drums, show on Saturday the third in Buffalo, NY. New songs will be unveiled as well! Should be a good time, place looks like it will be packed to the gills. However, main power is on and will be completed by the end of Monday, then I get to fix the holes I had to dig in the concrete to fix pipes for my wire.
A fellow local musician passed this week, wasn't a really close friend or anything, but it always sucks to lose a good drummer, Dennis "Jim" Parry finally lost his battle with the bottle and was found in a cemetery. No funeral or memorial is planned currently.
If this whole thing goes well with the new lady of interest this blog may get boring, hahaha! Won't have any more dating horror stories of psychotic freaks. Wouldn't mind if it did go well though, been a while since I met someone with many similar interests who was nice, had a good sense of humour, and is cuter than a kitten in a bow tie. Supposed to see her for the show next weekend, have to learn how to cook for a diabetic.
Also looking for a tutor for this goddamned witchcraft box that is my Mac, still having issues with stuff like I tunes and preferences, probably deleted something important, lol. This external hard drive causes an issue as well once in a while. Taking applications if anyone knows their way around these things, it is an ibook g4 running osx I believe. It is possessed by the devil himself and doesn't like me very much. I would like to take a large axe and give it a reprogramming it will never forget some days.
Today is a day for relaxing, beer, good (not healthy) food, and games on the boob tube. Hope everyone has a relaxing day and I'll be back with the band stuff later in the week and to let you know how things go with this new found person of interest.

Labour Day weekend story... I know it's late...

So, the weekend started on Thursday, my roommates family came out, folks, cousin and a buddy, 2 more supposedly on the way. I have a few beers with them before band practice, band blog coming soon, some cool info to share about it, then get to jammin. Party it up Thursday night with them for a bit then head downtown with my bass player to club Pure. It was a decent time, almost piss pounded some douchebag that thought I was "trying to mack on his game" or some stupid shit like that. I was standing too close to some slam pig he had targeted it seems. I told him he wasn't good enough to pull them and then he got in my face and started trying to talk shit. I told him to back off and slid up my sleeve to let him see my Marine Corp tattoo and then he backed off and went back to his prey, amazing the lack of balls these scum fucks have that hang out in these clubs. I usually don't pull that card, don't like to brag or be one of "those guys", but a couple weeks ago some kid was giving me shit and I was just smiling and plotting cutting his throat open with a beer bottle and my bass player asked me some question about the service. The other kid was my best friend after he found out I was in. So I guess don;t start shit with people you don't know, I don't start shit with people, but they must just not like me when they see me and want to get big balls, lol.
Anyway, so we had a decent time Thur night. Went to work friday on about 2 hours of sleep and came home and started drinking with my roommates and family we start at 4pm. I had a lady friend stop by for a beer and hopefully some good dickin, and this other girl calls and asks whats going on, she's a friend so I tell her I'm hoping to do the horizontal limbo in the near future. She tells me if plan A fails she'll come over and tuck me in, hip chick, I should feel bad about it cause she isn't single. So plan A fails and the regular (used to be the regular, not anymore since she has a bf now kinda sorta) comes over, bails early on a date with her bf it seems and brings me leftovers, life is good, chicken wings rock. We continue our Jihad against sobriety and then head in "to get something from the house" which she has to look for naked at the foot of my bed head first, covered in crisco and duck feathers. Pleasant end to the festivities for the evening, crash around 4 again...
Saturday we all get up around 10 and commence with the feeding, head to the beer store and continue water boarding our livers. Around 3am two of these cats are spilling more than they are drinking which is funny, but expensive. They make it about 30 meters to the house, make the drink, come back down the four stairs to get outside and all the way back to the fire with no problem except for walking serpentine. Then somehow, within about 10 seconds they drop it, spill it, fall over or one talks shit to the other and the drink is tossed at the former, then both laugh. People are fucking weird but good entertainment, and not to worry, my shining moment of tard is coming up . So we finally decide to cash it in for the night around 4 or so, drinking that much makes you drowsy:)
Sunday I am out of coffee and breakfast jive so I head to the gas station for an energy drink and hit dunkin donuts on the way back, good sammiges, coffee tastes like a dead hookers boot after it sat in a dumpster for a week. First beer top hits the fire pit at 1223 hours. Drinking commences with a vengeance. Around 7pm it is decided to be a good idea (this is the pinnacle of my stupidity:) ) to get a picture of someone jumping through the fire that has been burning since thursday and currently has some logs and about 5 pallets on top of it. We are sitting about 20 feet away because it's fucking hot, what could possibly go wrong? I was burned before I even touched the fire, went in like super mario jumping, came out like superman flying somehow, not sure what happened, but my legs were tingly because I had shorts on, I am about two steps away from licking the freakin windows sometimes... So plan A from Friday is over with her friend and the old regular is hanging out too, all are having a good time. Plan A wants a ride on the 4 wheeler, so one of my roomies takes her for a spin and they are gone for a while, he sends me a text and asks me what the deal is and I tell him to go for it, kid needs to get laid and I'd rather shag the old regular anyway. When they come back she goes to take a leak and I go to high five roomie, he shrinks away and asks if I'm going to throw him in the fire... weird... I told him to go for it and have fun. They disappear like that 3 times then are standing all cuddly next to the fire, a real redneck hallmark fucking moment. Then the texting starts, she is texting me saying to rescue her from him and she wants to bump uglies with me later, while she is standing arm in arm with this cat and he is kissing her neck and she seems to not be hating it. I told her to solve her own problem and tell him no then, said she did but I doubt it, they were both enjoying it. I go to change the tunes in the garage and she follows and jumps on me and starts kissing me and I push her off and tell her no, to go back to other dude. She says she doesn't want him, told her too late now, I have to live with these people and you can't make out with my roommate for an hour then just walk away and into my bed, not cool. He see's her kiss me and gets mad, hops on his wheeler and takes off down the highway at 3am peeled, jackass. Finally comes back and I told him to chill, I wasn't going to fuck her and she is trying to play us. She still won't leave me alone and he goes to bed, then she sits by the fire and looks all depressed, stupid twat. I tell her to go solve her fucking problem and finished my beer and went to bed, old reg was sleeping but woke up when I closed the door and SQUIRREL!!!!
Sorry got distracted, so anyway, we got to some serious drunken fakkin and the door opens and doesn't close for a min or so, thought it was going to get ugly for a min, but she then went upstairs to the guy she had blown off to fuck him and he was passed out or kicked her out. She leaves and drags her friend out of the backseat of a car where she was making out with some dude. This plan a chick then sends me a text that says "you suck"... what in the fuck? Am I an asshole for not shagging that chick? If so then I'll be an asshole, not looking to open that can of worms, that chick has bad news written all over her, probably in many different donor's sperm.
Monday was recovery day first time we had anything to drink other than coffee, beer, and liquor all weekend. Overall a fun weekend, smoked 7 or 8 packs of smokes from Fri night to Sunday night, so am working on quitting, I still can't stand the taste or smell, most days go pretty good unless there is a lot of booze involved, like on Tuesday night just past, but thats a story for the next one, this is already too long. Cheers all, have a fun weekend and be safe enough to not die or go to jail.

Finally back in action!

Greetings all, I am back, with new and better internet and a new external hard drive for the Mac, 1 Tb!! More than I can ever hope to fill. I have some stories over the past couple weeks, I will probably break it up into a couple blogs so it is not one long ass one. I will start that tomorrow, been a long day and I am on 2 hours sleep from last night, keep getting distracted and finding myself staring at the wall or the floor for minutes and forgetting simple things. I was totally retarded at work, forgetting simple things and having to have people explain things multiple times and then forgetting I had talked to them as soon as they walked away, fucking blows getting old.
Check me into the home and give me a fresh straw for each meal... The second degree burns on my legs are healing nicely, I'm broke, trying to quit smoking, and my boss is not laying me off when I go on tour, now have to figure out how I am going to come up with the 16oo I will need to pay my bills while I am gone. A few other things too, I'll try to post either tomorrow or friday with some good shit for you guys, right now however, this little cracker needs a piece of cake and some sleep, I'm bobbing for cock sitting here at the computer, almost whacked my forehead off the mouse pad. The Mac is working cool, finally figured out how to format my commie-pod so I can listen to my podcasts at work and drown out the stupid.
Until tomorrow,
Moriartty

effing hippies....

Sorry I haven't read many blogs lately, I will when I get a steady interweb connection... promise.

Short one since I am in a fucking Denny's..... try to do a short one or two from my phone, think I have it figured out. Good news, I have a MAC! Not sure how to work it really, but it looks so shinnnnnnny!!! Bad news, my roommate told Verizon what he thought about being on hold for 30 min and being bounced from dept. to dept. for an hour after that and informed them what they could do with their service and how bloody he hoped they would get as they fornicated themselves with said service while playing in traffic and having people throw bricks and teeth at them. Big surprise, they shut off our internet, it sucked fetid donkey balls, but it worked goddammit. So now I am at Denny's and they are pissed cause I have been here for an hour slopping coffee and stealing wi-fi, well fuck them they shouldn't have it for free then. Hoping for internet sometime next week, going to head to uni during the week to do some computer jive there, as well as check out some college ass, uh, I mean work diligently on solving global warming and stopping babies from crying... and finding the spell checker on this witchcraft box...fucking hippies.
So I guess I have to start combing my hair into my eyes and wearing plaid shirts that are 2 sizes too small for me like all the people in the Mac commercials now. This thing is pretty cool so far though, just have to figure out how to get my itunes library onto this and get a bigger hard drive or an external.
Also found a new way to crush the hopes and dreams of people far and wide in my quest for world domination. Hot or not, some website where you look at dames dressed like whores and rate them, the damage and the suicides that will come from this mess..... I can just see it now, some freakin sow pastes her mashed together veined up milk mittens all over this site and gets shitty ratings cause they can see track marks and the couch in the front yard by the trailer, then puts an icepick through her temple and her inbred cross-eyed freak demon spawn sues someone. I also type run on sentences, I know this and it is a work in progress, but coffee is kicking in and I am getting the jitters so I will just press on.
Going to the great white north this weekend (maybe) for some good eats and good boozin, stronger beer, more laid back people, and just a good time. If not, I plan on being face down in a gutter down here in ruff buff (Buffalo) with my bass player, always a good time and some joint called the Sky Bar has two for one beers, it's outside and has a decent view. And you con lob pennies at over the fence at the bum's walking by. Kidding I wouldn't do that...... sober.....

A lazy day off for catching up

Well, another week gone and done, it was a busy week and now I finally get a day off. I have been talking to a couple girls that I was looking to hang out with and all that jazz and I have one question... Is it possible that a chick who is fucking SINGLE could show some interest? Am I a magnet for freaks? I mean come on, my "regular" went back to her ex because I wouldn't date her I heard, fine and dandy, not a big deal, but I thought she could do better than him. I head out and re join the hunt, warpaint on and a fresh spear, feelin kinda froggy, new burst of confidence, good wingman by my side, the herd is grazing and I am mingling amonst them, no one the wiser. Don't want to get into a relationship with the band going on the road for 2 months starting in november, but it would be nice to have someone to hang out with, see a movie with, have dinner with, I like to cook but usually refuse to do it for just myself. Anywhoo... I end up meeting a chick or two that were kinda diggin it, then find out one is engaged and the other has been with her dude for 7, comma, pause for effect, SEVEN years?!?! She hates him and he hates her and she wants to have a naked whip cream fight or some shit like that before I stuff it in her slush pump. I would like to hang out with a single chick who might actually want to hang out, not just get drunk and shag like a bantha in heat. Not that I don't want to get laid like anything else with a pulse, but it just annoys me that the last three chicks I have met have boyfriends and shit. Maybe I should just call myself plan B, hahahaha! Suppose it's less stress this way, just turn my phone on around 2 am and wait for one of them to have a fight and need some consolation, but that seems like a dirtbag move, don't think I want to be that cat.

Things with the band are going well, we are working on posters for the tour and promoting our show for 3 October, poking around to see if we can add another guitar player to fill things out before we hit the bricks. Coverband played friday night and had an absolute blast, we had a few new songs to throw in and I didn't get wasted till after we played! Afterward it was game fucking on though, was up till 630 in the a.m. sluggin loudmouth soup. Today I am going to catch up on nap's business for the bands, and a few other things. Making a big lasagna or however it's spelled, this way I don't have to cook all week long again. Grape and Wine festival in St. Catharines next weekend, think I am going to go for Friday night and or Saturday. Big cookout/party the day after and hopefully I get Monday off from work, though it probably won't be paid. (insert cheap boss joke/comment here) Guess I'll have to sell some extra crack that week, lol. Also found an old roommate on facebook a few days ago, been forever since I have talked to her, pretty cool chick, and the cat she was dating at the time was hip too. Would like to have a beer with her and swap dating horror stories.

Although this Grape and Wine festival should be a good time, I could use a couple days away and the chick I am going with is pretty cool to hang out with. I used to date her cokeslut of a sister, whom I lovingly refer to as Cokey the Wunderlush. Not a word of truth or moment of sobriety from this ragdoll, but i was in a shitty spot and it worked for a short while till I sobered up and smartened up (or so I thought, hahaha) and continued to hack my way through the briar patch of psycho bitches. For those of you who don't know me I am about 5'7" pale as casper and weigh in at about 165 lbs. This info comes in handy in about three sentences. I end up talking to Cokey's sister by accident because she lost her phone and was using her sisters. Her sister got pissed that Cokey was using her phone, but we ended up chatting and swapping stories about her sisters lies and drug binges. Find out she was married (common law) and a college dropout, not having the 4 degrees she talked about every ten minutes. I also find out that according to Cokey, I am a 6'8" hulking black weightlifter and former Marine that stalked her and kidnapped her and raped her in a hotel. I am a Marine, but not too much else of any of the others. Funny that I was supposedly stalking her even though I had blocked her on everything I could, moved and changed my phone number to get away from her and she found me a year or so later and wanted to hang out. Her sister had the texts of her bugging me so she knew I wasn't some weird stalker. We ended up going out one night and drank enough booze to sail a ship on and I ripped my favourite jeans hopping over a fence at 4am because it seemed like a really good idea. Didn't spill my beer though! And, we got some fresh flowers from the park for her mom that was sick. So next weekend should be fun, another busy week coming up, I'll hope something cool or funny happens, I'll keep you posted. Enjoy the weather if it's nice where you are and I'll post the touring schedule when I get the official one. If I'm going to be in your town, maybe we can grab a beer at the show! We are touring with Flaw starting in November.
Keep on rocking,
Kris

Get rich quick

My latest idea was shot down by my friend who is a P.A. I get a kick out of all these weight loss commercials, where the old, fat, bald, sad person in the bad light is fat and miserable. The after picture when the person is air brushed, ripped after 4 weeks, has more hair with less grey, looks happy and almost looks like there is a line around the neck leading one to think that it could possibly be another body. I mean come on, do you really think that taking a pill and still sitting on your fat ass eating a bucket of fucking lard with a spoon will make you skinny? Well, I guess alot of people do, and they should all be rounded up, sterilized and shipped off somewhere where they can die cold and alone and not infect people with this stupidity.

Anyway, my new million dollar idea was along these same lines, figure if you can't beat 'em, you might as well make money off these window licking fuck tards. I know that the marketing division, fueled by satan, red bull, and a fistful of drugs can sell my idea and make it look great. It will work to, side effects may be mild and may include severe sickness, death, bowel problems, people to laugh at you, and a myriad of other things, but the announcer can put a happy spin on it and talk very quiet and fast with happy music and sexy people on the screen bumping uglies or something.

I have two words for you.....



Tape




Worm




Wrap your brain housing group around that one and tell me it's not the best idea you have ever heard. You eat a piece of chocolate cake (studies show lard asses like chocolate cake) and this little fledgling personal sexyifier ( the marketing division will explain that term, or make it sound edgy and or smart) works it's way to your nether region and all you have to do is wait for the Sweedish models to start beating your door down. Or whatever the chick version of this fantasy is, I am guessing a flying firefighter who is a volunteer kid taker care of person and has his dick tucked into his sock, but still has perfect hair and has his sweat glands removed.

You just wait and eat and get skinny, After target weight is reached, a few pills and a pair of hot dog tongs will fix you right up and no one will be the wiser. How much would you expect to pay for this service, no not service, honour, how much would you pay for the honour of this breakthrough technology? I figure I could sell it for a good 100 beans. People without insurance might not dig it, but they won't think that far ahead in the future. It'll just have to be packaged in a very serious looking box and have a "doctor" approve of it. I am sure I could pay some college professor with a phd to do it, they can't have souls with all the goddamned books they make us buy for classes.

Apparently though, this P.A. kid tells me that you could die and apparently people bitch about minute details such as this and I guess major surgery could be involved, and yes I am rolling my eyes and imagining this being said in a very sarcastic and condesending tone. Isn't it worth it though? Whats a little risk when the payout is so great? Get the skinny, emo look you always wanted, guys, look like a methed out coke freak, cheeks sunken in and that freak nasty dent under your sternum. Girls, lose those tits and that ass, look just like a 12 yr old boy and be able to stick a fist between each rib. Thats what the marketing people tell us is hot and desireable.

That is my million dollar idea, if it fails then I am just going to have to go to work in the morning...
