Hey there, swift!

haha Jack White. Yeah. I get that. I've gotten that a lot

Especially, when I was 7.

JK Rowling.

I mean, just JK.

:P

Nice. Way to go, pops. What's a British nick name for Dad? Brad? haha

Whoa there's an amazon addd to the right about fleece hats, and one of them looks like Scott Pilgrim's.

I think cause I was gonna buy a Scott Pilgrim style hat the other day. Strange

I reckon that wouldn't be the strangest thing. Although, I don't know too many strange happs at clothing stores.

What do you do there?

I just realized that when I'm cold I totally extend my left leg.

And it's not even to pee. Weird.

It's hard to explain. I wish I could draw it.

I sit weird, anyhow.

I'm weird, anyhow.

Weeeird things. Oh, sure! lol at both jobs.

Oh, that's another thread lol

But, yeah one crazy guy at the record store with a huge tumor on his head said he wanted to kill everyone, and that it was his store. That was fun.

There's a guy that comes in all the time that we have dubbed the mole man. He smells. like really bad. and he farts, and he just is there for way too long. and he doesn't like anyone in his space.

He lost a 45 (7" record. do you know records? I dunno) so he was like, "well, I'm just gonna have to start over and I won't leave 'till I find it!"

And I was just heading to lunch. I was like, Oh, that's good to hear. Well, have fun Meagan.

Meagan was covering for me.

She works with me.

She's ok.

Sometimes I really hate her.

Then sometimes I hug her.

I think I'm lenient with the disdain.

Anyhow, yes. Thanks! Well, that wasn't a whole set. Just the song.

And maaaaybe you're just looking at my butt, hahaha! :P Just saying

But, yeah. My alias does where those tight ass black pants. Also, That girl who was filming now works at Fingerprints. I don't care for her too much as a co worker. I don't really consider her a friend. Kinda. its like everything out of her mouth (Oh btw she's meagan's roomie, er, flat mate, yeah? yeah haha) is kinda pretentious, or that she's trying really hard to be on your level or gain some sticker stars for impressive behavior. And I'm just like...I didn't even say anything!

For instance, I went to this show last week, to see this hip hop artist, and a bunch of us from work were there. And she's there. random. And she's like "oh, wow what are you doing here?" UGH!

Uhhh cause it's 2 Mex? And I've always wanted to see him?

Who says that? I just retorted, what are YOU doing here? lol

le sigh.

Wow, this is becoming super personal. Who knew, Deviantart! Who knew.

Thanks for listening to my music and watching the video.
:batman:
:woohoo:

It's also my birthday. yaaaay

Funny, now that I have this account. I'm like really into it. I think I'm gonna start posting my flyers on here. I just made a flyer tonight, for my scott pilgrim birthday party thingy on Saturday.

I was gonna go out to this show and have some drinks...but nope, I'm working. For my birthday, I'm working. lol such a geeko, I am.

I wish I could show you. Guess I'll deviantart it.

You have an instagram?

I'm also thinking of getting a tumblr.

Wow this is a long message.

Go me

ok.

G'night, from my end of the world.

Longgggg message haha

Yeah so it snowed yesterday and England can't deal with that kinda thing
So I tried to go into work and then they told me I didn't need to but by this time my bus had got stuck and reversed into a fence

So I got rescued by Callum and stayed at his till the roads were ok to come home

That was fun haha

I actually have some really cool hats
I have a long wolf hat
Two panda hats
A steampunk top hat
And I'm thinking of getting an animal hood/ pork pie hat

Yeah we get weird people like that

Yeah we have record shops
There's a record shop where I busk called rose red records sometimes they have bands play in there

Sometimes I don't like my coworkers and other times they are alright but I feel like I can't be myself around them :/

Eh I can look :)

My art teacher is incredibly pretentious
He purposely pronounces words wrong to make himself sound posh

It's alright Nd happy birthday

Nice I did flyers for a band aswell

Good luck on your Scott pilgrim thing and have a great birthday x

These messages might get longer and longer haha

Who is Callum?

That' sounds like a crazy snowy mess. Sony guys not get snow a lot? I figured u would. I mean, I saw it in a Christmas carol :P haha

That would suck and maybe be good not working Due to snow. Depending on the hours u need.

Some of my co workers are awesome. I can be myself. Especially at the record store. They call me Oldboy over there (my dj name)

Peet's crew used to be tighter.

Teachers can be pretentious. Especially of the artistic kind. U can just shove it up their ass haha

Ummm yeah Haha u can look

Maybe u can Do a flyer for me? Whoa cross country promotion!

I'd love to play in England. I hope we get to a point where we can come over there. Especially at a record store.
Thanks! Birthday was rad. Saw two movies

Just went to dinner with the folks. Thai food

And now I'm about to head out! I'm excited and nervous. I'll try and get some pics.

I'm bringing a bunch of posters to put up haha
shortenough's avatar
I agree haha

Boyfriend

Nah whatever the films tell you about England is a lie
We get snow one or two days a year
Never on Christmas
And always about an inch where we are but it still manages to cause mass panic

I don't really feel I fit in anywhere tbh
It's a cool DJ name

Peets crew?

You have no idea
A lot of us didn't go to his life drawing class because we've had the same model since we started and it got boring and repetitive
And to try make us go he told us all how bad at drawing we were and that we needed his lessons

Yeah I could
I mean I'm hoping to be snowed in for a few more days so what else am I gonna do haha

Yeah that would be awesome
They city I live in has some awesome pubs that a lot of famous musicians used to play in
I've played in a few of them
My Favorite was the soul cellar

Ah I'm glad you had a nice birthday

Ooh nice
Good luck :)

Hey!

ah!

The BF

I didn't know.

Random name.

haha I was referring to the book/play. But, yeah, I didn't think England got pooped on with snow, but just pissed rained on.

Oh yeah, I forgot to say-I'm DJ OLDBOY. That's me.

Fitting in: who really fits in? make your own room! Make your own fit, that's the place to be, where you are! Fuck yeah. :)

And It's a great thing not to fit in anywhere, 'cause you're more than just the usual suspect. ya know? You got spunk, yo!

Peet's: Oh, sorry, I thought I told you. I probably didn't. So, my other job is working at a coffee shop called Peet's Coffee & Tea. It's a corporate coffee company...but on the lesser scale.

It's not like Starbucks at all. And we don't have many stores. We have a lot on the west coast. Peet's originated in Berkeley. Northern California.

We do artisan roast coffee, and sell beans in the store. Hand pulled shots of espresso.

I dig it. especially at our store. We close at 8pm. Super early. So I can close and still go and do a gig later.

Teacher-bag: What a douche. I wanna sneak into your class and flick rubber bands at him, and say "Oh, sorry, I just thought a rubber band hitting your face was more informative/entertaining than anything you've ever said." :)

Snow: Hope you're not snowed in!

Playing in England: yes, i wish to make that happen. I'd be down to play a pub or record store. One day.

We are in no way ready to travel out of the country. My drummer would have to quit her job, and we'd have to be a full time band. Unless we did a weekend thing. But, that seems pretty crazy. That's a long flight. UNless we left on a Thursday. Played on a Saturday, and left Sunday night. That'd still be a lot of money spent.m

Soul cellar. Nice

my birthday was super chill. I saw a few movies, ate some thai food. nice

birthday party??? ooooh man. haha that was fun. I finally got drunk. Like really drunk.

And I successfully pulled off a live soundtrack tribute, with a bunch of musicians. That was crazy. 'Cause everyone was asking me so many questions: "Who's amp am I using? When do we play? Where do we set up?"

It was fun, though. Totally felt like a band leader.

And we killed the sex bob-omb songs. and i made garlic bread, and someone gave me this amaaaazing huge scott pilgrim poster

what a relief. lol

i was stressed about it!

Glad i could enjoy the party. For a while i was running around, working.

And now I got in contact with a dude that wants to do this Scott Pilgrim midnight showing party, like rocky horror.

Do you guys have that? Over here, watching Rocky Horror at midnight is like a huge thing. People dress up, yell at the screen, interact. it's hilarious.

So, we're gonna do that with Scott Pilgrim, and I think my sex bob-omb band is gonna perform.

Do you have instagram? What's your e-mail? I can send you some pics from the show!

Cheers!

:relaxed:

I figured it was your name haha

Yeah I never really get on with people who do fit in
They just seem a bit dull
And too content in their own ways
Spunk yes

Sounds like a nice coffee shop
We have a few like that but not very many and they're pretty well hidden and I don't like coffee so I don't look for them
But hot chocolate and tea is good

Actually one of my friends has a mate in America
And they just sent her a bunch of American sweets we don't have over here
And we were looking at all the stuff you don't have there
I can't believe you guys don't have Cadbury chocolate

Yeah my teachers a douche but I always find I get one teacher who is too far up his own asshole.

I admit it is a big step to start taking the band around the world but I'm sure you'll get to one day

I'm glad your birthday went really well
Well done on everything I'm sure it was totally awesome

Yeah I think so
We have a theatre called the mayflower where I live
And they constantly have a lot of performances on and we've had a few shows like that
We also have the London hotel which is Victorian pub with drag acts haha

I do have Instagram but I hardly use it
roxysgirl@hotmail.co.uk

Oh also
I got into Uni :D
vinylronin's avatar
i will reply fullly later

what's UNI?

You got into the universe?! good job!

I'm doing online driving school. haha

i got a ticket a while ago.

Yeah, i just wanted to see if you had instagram, then you could see my photos.

I'd e-mail you...but then it takes away from the fresh excitement of deviantart messaging. I look forward to messages from England on here! ha

if you wanna see my craziness you can hit me up on instagram at @dj_oldboy

these messages are fun. I'd only e-mail you to attach photos or media shit


yeah birthday was wild!

nice! I can't wait to go to one of those pubs. I've always wanted to go to England.

haha we have that chocolate! i've had it. Especially at Easter.

We have tons of places.

or maybe it's just so cal

sometimes i feel lucky i live in so cal, 'cause it's somewhere most have heard about.'

Do you have 7-11 in ENgland? convenient mart?

there's one 7-11 near where i live which has British chocolate/candy. It's crazy. like toblerone chocolate and stuff.

well you shouldn't try to fit in, you should try and slip by. That's smooth. :)

you should only fit into what you're comfortable with, ya? Yeha, fuck what everyone else wants

oh look i've responded more than i wanted.

ill reply more!

off to bed for me

I have a day off tomorrow. yay. i'm gonna go buy records.
