My Guitar Idols




Eternal Lament
This is an ongoing project for me. It started as an idea to make a musical concept album. The premace was of a musician who fell in love with a vampire, an affair deemed illegal by her peers. (sounds like a Romeo and Juliet, right?) After they confess their love for eachother, he asks her to bite him. He becomes a vampire, and then he has to deal with the differences of being one.
Then the idea progressed. After hearing the soundtracks to the 2nd and 3rd Matrix i decided i wanted to make orchestral/electronic music. The I started listening to Trans Siberian Orchestra, and started wanting to make orchestral/rock music.
Then i said, Hell, lets do it all. The project then became a rock/orchestral/electronic concept album on vampires.
The i was thinking the story was very Bruckheimer-esque, and that it would be awesome as a movie. But musical hardly make it these days. But a musical play...that could work. So Eternal Lament finally became what it is now, a musical of a man who loves music, but loves a vampire more, and the betrayal of his situation, and his eternal love for music.
Any music that i have finished and deemed ready for the public will be posted on music site.

Music elitism at it's finest

Elle and I watched 'High Fidelity' today. It was fun and she enjoyed it...as I knew she would becuase it is one of the most amazing films ever. I realize how much of my life paralels that movie...it is quite disturbing. I love it though.

I have 'found' some bands that I love now. The first is Lynch Mob. The band is 'fronted' by George Lynch, ex-guitar player of Dokken. They have an amazing lead singer who hits some great notes. I am in love with their song 'Rleax', which is a very cool power ballad-ish song.

The second and third go hand in hand. I got Ozzy Osbourne's 'Prince of Darkness' boxed set. They have been playing a lot of Black Sabbath and Ozzy on the radio since Ozzfest is comming to town next week and I was listening to the songs and remembering how good they are, so I dug out Sabbath's first album and 'We Sold Our Soul For Rock N Roll' and got the box set and just started listening to the songs. I love the groove that Sabbath had. Groove is something that I have been really focusing on lately. Lynch Mob has a lot of it too. For being a metal band, they have a lot of the groove in their riffs. Pantera is another band that has the groove, yet they aren't on this list of discovery...they will forever be on my favorite list.

I don't know if I am going to practice tonight. I am talking to Cherish and we are talking about our lacking in relationships and it hurts. We aren't saying anything attacking towards eachother or anything, but it just isnt one of those uplifting conversations. We both are lonely and it hurts a lot for us to both have been in a good relationship and now find that we are really wary of the opposite sex. I have literally listened to 'Relax' from Lynch Mob 3 or 4 times now in a row becuase I like it and it reminds me of she and I.

Wow...Ozzy did a version of 'N.I.B.' with Primus that is amazing. This box set has some amazing stuff on it. Ozzy doing a bunch of covers and some of his songs with other bands. The cover of 'Purple Haze' that he and Zakk Wylde do is fucking great. And Ozzy Fuckin' Osbourne, the Prince of Darkness, covering 'Sympathy for the Devil' is so perfect. Whoa...okay...for those who are going to read my Audioscrobbler , yes that is the same 'Stayin Alive' from the John Travolta movies....scary... yet.... really ....good.

im out of here...I am tired and hungry...as always...and I am almost done with 'The Historian' and I want to finish it.


Current Mood: depressed
Current Music: Various Ozzy/Black Sabbath songs with Lynch Mob as well
