So, my drummer situation is now sorted. Now I just need to get everything else in order. A good start would be getting a reply from people on when they have time to rehearse… I guess I’m just gonna have to get brave and pick up the phone rather than relying on text messages, Facebook and e-mails.

It’s kind of hopeless trying to be a musician while having social anxieties, I realise. Especially when you’re a singer. As a drummer or a bassist, people will always approach YOU. Even as a guitarist you have an advantage. But as a singer, YOU have to take the initiative yourself, for everything, all the time. This is problematic when first contact freaks you out. Just “getting over” ones phobias isn’t quite as easy as it sounds.

In other news, I have a new mobile. It’s a fancy mobile; a “green” mobile! As in, not the colour, but in the being nice to the environment way. Shell made of recycled plastic, no dangerous chemicals in the battery, no “bad” metals, all friendly, no nasties. I love my new mobile! It’s a Sony Ericsson Elm. I call it Freddy. As in Krueger. As in “Elm Street”. Clever, right? Obviously, not my idea.
