Releasing an EP is Like Winning in Online Bingo

One of the things I’ve wanted to do for the longest time – aside from my desire to play online bingo (sign up now) – release a record. It’s any musician’s biggest dream, and you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn’t even think that it would be neat to release something containing their own compositions. Releasing one and having people actually like it is like winning in bingo.

Anyway, I’ve put that dream on the back burner because, well, I didn’t think I was talented enough to write a good song, let alone a few songs that will fill up an entire EP or LP. Also, work. And age. I can really name a lot of reasons why I wasn’t able to record stuff with all my other bands, but nothing beats stopping making excuses and just heading off to the studio to put your songs on tape.

(Well, technically, we didn’t really record on tape, because it’s 2012, and who the hell records on tape these days? Oh, yeah. Foo Fighters. That doesn’t make it any different – we still recorded digitally. Yes, I know the idiom doesn’t make sense, but- oh, you get what I mean. Shut up.) Read more ›

RomCom EP Coming Soon!

So, uh, is this thing on? Is anyone still here?

Hi everyone. Or whoever’s left of my blog readers. As you know, I usually have a nice introspective (HAH) post that I make every birthday, but at this point I really can’t get myself to write anything. You know I’ve struggled with this stupid writer’s block for years and it’s rather clear that my writing has taken a downward spiral in quality (QUALITY? WHAT QUALITY?).

Anyway, I know I’ve been talking about my new band, RomCom, a lot. Mainly because it’s my band and I think we’re doing a pretty good job. We’ve recently finished recording our EP, which we’ll release digitally soon. Not bad for a band that started last January, I say. I’m learning a lot from this band too. No, you won’t find me taking up beginner trumpet anytime soon (although that’s a sweet-looking trumpet, don’t you think?) but I’m planning on taking up and studying more instruments soon.

Anyway, here’s a small preview of the EP. Here’s one of the first completed songs off it, called “I Don’t Want To.” Give it a listen and tell me what you think!

Happy Valentine’s Day, RomCom

Hello everyone! I am taking a break from not posting updates on this blog to greet you all a Happy Valentine’s Day. Don’t ask me how mine went – it’s pretty much uneventful and all. I know I was all about finding love and shawarma this 2012. But I guess that’s kind of asking too much. It’s easier to play bingo online for cash and win. Oh well, that’s Valentine’s 2012 for you. Tell me if you’ve hit bingo with your love lives this year, alright? Maybe a couple of my readers are living in a romantic comedy already. I dunno.

Speaking of romantic comedies, I’m posting here because I want you all to listen to and appreciate my new band, RomCom (see what I did there?) I have no idea why we’re called that (ask Tin), but our mission is to make music that makes you feel like you’re in a John Lloyd Cruz movie. And this new band here is made up of internet people whom I’ve known for some time now – Tin, Larry, Marco, and Mon. And for a change, I’m playing for a band that does bubblegum pop. I know, I know. I just want to play something different, screw you, don’t judge me. Read more ›

Merry Christmas, Everybody!

I’ll make this quick. I just want to greet you all a Merry Christmas. I know I haven’t been updating this blog as much as I want to. To make up for that here’s a little video I know you all will enjoy.

Also, sorry.

Hi, I’m Ade…

...and I don't know what I'm doing here.

Oh, wait, this is a humor blog. I blog here. Yes, folks, I am , blogger extraordinaire. I write about deep and introspective stuff, like dick jokes, the size of the gazongas of that girl two feet away from me, my band that nobody cares to listen to, and how stupid the traffic is today on the way to work. Exciting, life-changing stuff!

No, really, please stick around. I need new friends.
