MY BAT SIGNAL.
APLM: are you busy?
S: nope.
APLM: can you tell me if this sounds a little too bare? and, you know, if it sucks.
S: "I don't know what I'd add to this if I were making it; it sounds very nice as is. Perhaps some light and airy piano" MY BAT SIGNAL. listening now.
APLM: SAAAAVE GOTHAM, BATMAN.

you could easily throw some stand up bass and some...
APLM: is it okay if you listen to something i wrote?
TCT: sure.
APLM: thank you!
TCT: thaaaat's reaally good. congratulations, you can write songs.
APLM: do you think it's too bare?
TCT: I'd be worried of putting more things in there. I mean sure, you could easily throw some stand up bass and some orchestral stuff and really disney princess it out, but I don't think that's necessary at all.
APLM: "disney princess it out"? hahaha!
TCT: I know. I was pretty proud of that one. but I mean honestly. THAT IS SO GOOD THAT IT COULD BE A DISNEY PRINCESS SONG. fuck. I would kill to be able to write a disney princess song. not in the cards.
APLM: can you please move away from the disney princess comparison? lol.
TCT: ok, fine, fine. I don't mean it's celine dion or whatever.
APLM: this was a fuck hard song to write. i had a time limit of 90 seconds and i had to chop off a whole verse to make it fit. fffffu.
TCT: much more stripped down neko casey. it works perfectly. i'm sure you could probably throw another verse in, but I'm not sure it's necessary.
APLM: "neko casey." haha, thanks.

post weekend update.
i totally forgot to make one of these! what the hell. let’s make this quick and short. last weekend:
(01) my dad took back the me-20 and gave me the me-50 instead. he’s also trying to get me to use his red strat so i don’t lug the vintage jag all over the city (when i eventually gig with a guitar); and he’s asking what kind of amplifier i want. pretty much the best dad...

this band combines the best bits of what i love about ’50s and ’60s music — surf rock and doo wop. how have i not heard of them before?
welcome to like, 2 and a half years ago, slowpoke
why do you hate me so much, babyclothes?

DAD: where's my ME-20?
APLM: it's with me. you told me i could have it!
DAD: no, i didn't. i said you could use it, if you figure out how it works.
APLM: oh... okay. i'll bring it downstairs later. sorry, dad.
DAD: i'm not giving you the ME-20, that's mine.
APLM: can i borrow it sometimes?
DAD: you don't have to. i'm giving you the ME-50. that's yours.
APLM: ...
DAD: and use the red strat if you don't want to bring the jaguar out of the house.
APLM: O_O
DAD: or the PRS, but i think you like fender guitars.
APLM: ... thanks dad. this is too much.
