Day 23 - Spoon Vs. Bigger Spoon
Chocolate Of The Day: Image of the day: Sound(s) of the day:
it's my chocolate brain, riddled with guilt :
It's a pointless object :
If you were going to make you own drum kit, why would you make it out of tracing paper and balser wood? I don't think those skins would take too much of a beating.
This next one is clearly more practical, its a drum kit made of cheese:
I but it must sound amazing, as this old man appears to kicking out the jams like a mother fucker:
Tomorrow there will be more amazing drum kits.
What's the date today...it's errr the 23rd of December 2007 isn't it? well no, it's actually the 4th of January 2008...
So what's my excuse, well I don't really have one today (the 23rd of Dec) me and James II drank a crate of beer and a bottle of Vodka, then started on some whiskey...It turns out this wasn't such a great idea, using my crystal ball to look forward in time I can see that on the 24th James II will go home late missing his family lunch, and then proceed to be sick all over he house, I will go to Coirin's mums house and gently drink champaign and orange juice, but never actually feel to good about it...Christmas day will probably carry large traces of a hangover for both me and James II. By the time I'm feeling sober enough to do any recording (Boxing day) I'll just want to catch up on all the drinking I missed earlier in the week. By new year I will feel like I have let myself down by not finishing the SF-advent, and so kind of pretend I never did it in the first place. After new year hits, I'll feel that I should probably face up to reality and get on with it (part of turning a new responsible leaf), after putting it off for a few days I may get on to doing the day 23 song (which only needed vocals anyway).
That's what I predict could happen anyway.
Spoon Vs. Bigger Spoon is a song about me never actually doing most of the things I say I will, I tend to think everything will be OK, and that I can do an inhuman amount of tasks in a short amount of time...I might actually be able to achieve the goals I set for myself if it wasn't for alcohol and videogames...oh well.
I felt the song was missing some top end (with only two cymbal hits throughout it's epic 39 seconds), so I decided to add some percussion, after an exhaustive search of the kitchen it turned out that the large strainer-spoon thing when paired with a small tea spoon made a pretty good sound, a close second was the giant meat cleaver and a spatula (we have never used out cleaver, its just such a good looking thing that I can't get rid of it, I also sometimes think that if I go crazy and decide to start killing people it might be my weapon of choice)
The Lyrics:
"That's Right, I'm a lazy motherfucker who can never achieve.
Alright, I'm a damn motherfucker you should never believe.
Damn.
I have intention, I wanna complete.
No comprehension, of my deceit."
