HEY MONDAY

Chris just posted a video from the WNH show at Backbooth a couple months ago. Everyone check it out because it was songs like this that made the 90’s badass.

wordsnowheard:

Finally!  One of the videos from the Words Now Heard full band show back in September of 08!   This was a crazy crazy show, full of chants, hillarity, and a ton of partying.

I will be putting more videos up on Vimeo every week but here is the first one to check out!

AJ just found this is Alex’s room. You got wonder…

I woke this morning to fine that I’m featured on Edmond Clothing’s site right now! Edmond is a new clothing line run out in California and we’ve become really good friends with all the guys and girls over there. They have pics up from the Myspace Secret Show we did last week with Metro Station so go scope it. And get up on the Edmond train now before its no longer an option. There only a few steps away from taking over the world! Shout out to my boys Dylan and Brendan!

Happy Birthday mom. You haven’t seen this yet. But when you do, I hope you love it. You mean the world to me and there isn’t a thing in this life i could have done without you. Love you Jude.

I’ll second that. I didn’t come in until the second season and it was the same for me. Staying up until 5AM every night just watching ‘one more episode’. 

johnnyminardi:

This is amazing and true. I was a late bloomer and had basically all the same questions.

i’m falling.

you can tell it’s happening when i spend an entire night recording a minutes worth of music all because i can’t sleep until the the music is out of me.

i call it:
“…you never know”

more to come, i promise… as for now…

if the summer sky will never fade away
then girl, i want you to know that you’re welcome to stay
because, i’ve been thinking about it
and i’ve been wondering how this will end because…
oh, you’re never going to know
unless we give it a go.

So here I am. Another week. Same old shit. Watch my friends stuck on an island. Or i guess trying to get back to it now. Why am i so into this show? I don’t think i’ve watched a single episode where the adrenaline hasn’t stopped pumping. Good luck everyone…

Peace, love and snails.

I’m working on a new design for my clothing company, Carraway Clothing, but I’m going to need everyone’s help! My idea is to have a bunch of people draw me snails, scan them in and then email their drawings. I’m then going to take all the drawings and place the snails into the shape of a huge peace sign. The shirt will be printed and sold through my clothing company. Anyone and everyone can send me a drawing of a snail. Make sure it’s only one color (black) and drawn with a pen, otherwise I won’t be able to print it. Email them to carrawayclothing@gmail.com. Please re-blog this post if you can. Thanks!

My best friend Ryan or as you know him, the owner of Carraway Clothing was asked to write an article on Sponsoring Bands and the secrets to get great advertising for the cost of a few shirts. It’s a really interesting read whether your into design or not. Or clothing? Who doesn’t like clothing? Check it out here. And also check out Carraway and Relentless Studio. You’ll immediately recognize the Snail shirt from our “Homecoming” video.

oh, fuck yeah.

Amazing. Damn, i miss you Julio hahaha

iamryanmiller:

I woke up and signed into MySpace this morning and saw a bulletin from As Tall As Lions. It said that instead of making an album they decided it would be much more fun to make YouTube videos and then they posted a link to this.

If you haven’t seen the Gap x Aerosmith commercial they’re doing a spoof of, check that out first…

Haha, I can’t wait to come hang in LA boys!

Let’s go to Chipotle again. I’m hungry.

iamryanmiller:

Just picked up El from the airport after waiting a fucking hour for his delayed flight from LA. They played a MySpace Secret Show out west with Metro Station. I wish I was just getting back from LA. Actually, I wish I was just leaving for LA. I might fly out there next month though; we’ll see. I want to go visit Abby, Julio and the rest of the As Tall As Lion’s dudes while they’re recording their new album. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.

Tonight I’m going to be on camera with my friends that do Making The Film. Check out their minisodes that are on YouTube by clicking the link below.

Should be a good time! I’ll be sure to post the minisode that I’m in when they’re done editing.

The part I hate about leaving LA most is the sunset on the horizon. We don’t get that on the east. Take care orange buildings, see you in a week, Love EL

Anything you’ve ever bought from a Hot Topic store got put in a box here first… crazy right?

Currently at the Hot Topic headquarters for a shoot with We The Kings

Good luck Leprechaun

Recap of last night: Thank you to everyone that came out last night. It was a very special show for us and we have endless love for Cali. You’ve never let us down and we can’t wait to come back and party with you again. Shout out to Metro Station for bringing us out, see you boys again in a month.

You don’t have this. ;)

Can’t come to Melrose Ave and not go to Johnny Cupcakes

They have a DJ play up there above the bar everynight. This place is all day everyday. Breakfast any time.

Me and Jason woke up early and went the dopest breakfast spot in LA. It’s called Kitchen 24/7. Highly recommended, and you know I wouldn’t steer you wrong!

I can’t tell you how long I’ve been waiting for today to come. Not only do I happen to be in LA right now, but I also will not be able to watch the LOST Season 5 premiere eastern standard time. We wont get back to the hotel from our show till well over 1AM at which point the whole world will know what happened except for me. To be completely honest, I don’t really watch that much TV. I’m sorry, please don’t take offense to that. Entourage yes, Family Guy of course, who doesn’t? A friends episode here and there and that’s about it. Ever since MTV stopped showing music shows regularly I kind of lost interest. But LOST is a whole different story. Never in a million years did I think someone could right such an amazing plot that would make so many people lose sleep over. I’ve laughed, cried, been on the edge of my seat, even to the point where I’ve been nauseous watching the story of these individual peoples lives unfold. We used to have LOST night at Alex’s every week. There me Ryan, Jeremy, Mitch, and Chris. And the dogs and CIndy and Gary might I add. Sometimes Cameron. But that was more of special occasion kind of thing. There it was all Dharma Coke and Sandwiches. Didn’t get much better. The new way of watching LOST on the road it gong to take some getting used too. But you guys will all back me up right?

Soundcheck

Delay.

It’s a long flight from here to the west coast

sound the damn alarm

miss these guys.
their music got me through some tough damn times. 

Good luck in NY bud, see you again soon.

My friend Hailey rides horses, she’s one of the best. Period. Here’s me and her buddy Tyson. I guess now would be the time to mention I’m deathly afraid of horses. My friend had one growing up when we lived in England and I got kicked off the back of his. I haven’t been the same since. But thats life. You always gotta get back on the horse.

Leave for LA in a few hours. Why haven’t I packed yet?

Today I learned that I’ve been alive 7,052 days. Please give me 7,000+ more.

I was just going through my old Flickr account and found a bunch of old pieces of work I haven’t seen in over a year. It’s like looking at a painting you haven’t seen in a long time and finding new things in it you didn’t see the first time round to appreciate.

Just got to the right coast/shwayze show at hangar 84 in vineland NJ.. So stoked!!! :-D
