True.. in my case it is the opposite.. I write more so I don't spend all my time on the computer.. plus tomorrow I have a 20 hour ride to Florida.. So I have plenty of time to just write.
haha I have an idea.. you could maybe start a story using one of the bands we both like and throw me into the story too.. and I'll leave comments on the chapters with ideas that could maybe go into other chapters? lol. We can work this out haha.
I would have loved to be brought up on classic rock.
My mom used to listen to bands like Meatloaf and stuff before my dad died, but since he liked country, she felt an obligation to listen to country after that. So, that's what I was raised on..
haha yeah although I love Mayday Parade.. I only know them for their voices and not their faces.. Which I guess is a good thing? The only name I know is Derek Sanders.. So I'm just kinda gonna roll with it..cuz the story is gonna be between the main character and Derek..but I'll have to figure out the others' names.. Anyway..when I co-write with friends one person starts writing their pov..and the other person continues that day with what happened with theirs.. Am I explaining it right? Or would you like to just roll with it? haha.
That's really cool you discovered them so early.
I wish I had, but my mom only listened to country so I just kind of grew up with that and was content with it. Then I got an iPod and didn't know what to put on it, so I asked a friend and she suggested some rap. Then I talked to one of my friends that lives in California and she was like "You should listen to some of THESE bands. They're really good"
So I did, and I was saved from the world of rap.
I'm down for anything too.. I think FTSK could get to be a pretty interesting story..haha so many guys.. so many interesting things that could happen? haha. I started to write a Mayday Parade story..but only got the intro down..and then lost it.. So I have to rewrite what is in my head.
You'll have to check www.musicwillblastthroughthespeakers.blogspot.com to get an idea.. haha there are a bunch on there.. but my all time favs are bands like ATL, FTSK, The Maine, Mayday Parade, NSN!, Paramore, PATD.. stuff like that.
