So...
Our gear was stolen from Scotty's Basement on Friday night.
Ben's bass and my guitar were stolen along with a pedal board with my pedals and all my chords, strings, etc.
My guitar was the first I ever had and I have been playing it for over 10 years.
If you hear of anything please let me know. I will gladly set up an anonymous drop just to get my guitar back. It is only worth 50 bucks but it is priceless to me.
Inventory:
1 gator pedal tote
    1 big muff
    1 mxr micro amp
    
1 red Samick SG with silver star and various other silver stickers.
1 black Peavey bass.

here is a picture:

I envy people who drink. At least they have something to blame everything on. - Oscar Levant
I have seen this city eat up the best of my intentions and change our finest men and women into uninteresting drunks, worker-bees, and nymphets. You cant fuck to freedom and you sure as hell cant drink your way to enlightenment. Before you scoff, roll your eyes, and slowly sip  your Macchiato in contempt, know this: I am not blaming this on alcohol or sex.. It is not the fault of our sweet poisons. And i myself am not about to monk it up in the hills of Tibet. I just think that the uninspiring climate of complacency in the south and many other middle class fried okra cities can tame you. Make you boring. And then you turn to the classic muses to bring you some life blood trough those cold blue veins.
So, arctic children of the sweet gold bible belt... What are we to do? Lets get some culture in our sex. try karma sutra. Lets live dangerously. Lets swallow gin and sceam Sex Pistol's lyrics into the TN River. write something, paint something, get in a fist fight with god. If you are gonna get high..do it while painting nude and dancing.
be a fucking wildcat not one of those pretty yet yawning sigfreid and roy pussycats. no more walking around drunk in the dark waiting for a warm body to fall on you. Lets get some art in our lives. lets make our lives art.
So i ask you, where are the dreamers, the psychos, the poets? Where are our golden children? Come out to play.
No more dress rehearsals.

Current mood:klim klam
so
i am sitting 15 stories up at the Normandy in a $3,000,000 apt. on the upper east side of manhattan after a pretty eventfull couple of days. I am going to make this fast cause I want to go to the roof, look out onto this chaos and drink my white wine.
saturday i missed my flight but still caught a stand by.
i saw Harmony Korine at ohare and spent 5 hours drinking at the bar by my gate.
made it to Newark sat. night then drove to Manhatten on sunday for my step brothers grad party. We took a boat around manhatten. great view.
i ate at Tout Va Bonne and we were the only people speaking english. the best french food i have ever had. better than gay Paris.
I stayed at a dorm in Princeton on sun mon and tues night that was designed by the same guy who designed the glass pyramids outside the Louvre.
S Coulbert spoke at a grad function. He pleaded for the grad to not change the world b/c he liked it just the way it is.
 Later, I partied with 6 thousand people at the largest graduation party ever. open bar and funk cover band. i was happy.
Quincy Jones recieved an honarary degree from Princeton at graduation and walkd right in front of me. As is tradition, there was a whole speech in Latin.

I actualy went to Urban Outfitters in midtown today. I just had to see if it was better. not really.
Then I went to see The Little Mermaid on broadway tonite and i was good. They changed the plot and Triton was terrible but i still had a fun time.
"Under the Sea" was fuckin glorious.
I wish you all could see the view i have( i can see the whole island) and i wish you could have tasted the cocktail i had after the show at Blur Fin in on 7th and Brdway.
museums all day tommorow and then The Black Lips in Brooklyn.
friday is Soho and who knows.
see ya soon.

Current mood:  curious
Category: Goals, Plans, Hopes
A friend and i were talkin about life ,as we tend to do, and the question came up:
What are we looking for? What are we searching for?
the pursuit of happyness?
interaction?
love?
security?
cures for lonliness?
stimulation?
release?
success?
Sometimes i think 20 somethings are just a bunch of kids with credit cards running around in the dark until they bump into somebody. 
Other times i think we are the luckiest group of people. We say what we want and do what we want. Who needs to know what they are lookin for?
I am not just talking about relationships I am talking about everything.
I think it all works hand in hand.
Does it help to know what you desire in life(if even just some idea) or Does trial and error eventually get you there?
Is it at least important to know that you don't know?
Is is a waste of life to continue on a path that will lead to a dead end?
What do you think?
What are you looking for?











(these questions aren't rhetorical, i am really asking)

It has been forever since i blogged(terrible sounding verb). I thought i would catch you cats up on whts been up. I will go fast so keep up.
Ive had a pretty good summer but i am now realizing(like everything) it is fleating.

MY SUMMER
---------
MUSIC
I have recorded a full length album that i now have to decide what to do with. The music business is fun at times and other times it seems like a hopeless blinding dreamscape.
Men in suits wander malls picking grapes. a stroke of luck floats alone in a cold drink. a blunt melody forced into a head. An acne rockstar plays the same 3 chords in his bedroom, teary-eyed at the thought of "Good Night New York City!" to huddled masses of monkeyfaced madison square gardeners.

i hope someone in this universe will just pay to release our music somewhere. simple right?
HA!
---------
POOL
I spend 30 percent of my day wet. I am caramel brown and medium rare.

-------
COFFEE BEANS
I have really been drinking to much coffee lately. It lends itself to insane thought processes that only hinder any attempt at cognitive conversation.
-------
ROO
my morning jacket, red bull, kitten eyes, clap Y,cOnner,  peanut butter, beers, thom yorke, my morning jacket, beck was pretty mediocre, my morning jacket, liquid umbrella,  the hum of sex and commerce,seu jorge, chigger fuck, lower lumbar sciatic nerve_ending, moore brothers, murfreesboro, nickel creek,  I am really pissed i never rode the ferris wheel, painted breasts, walkwalkwalkwalkwalk, b yur own pet
--------
BLUERAIDERBOOKSTORE
8x5 = 40
--------
NOAH
a pillar of humor and wit. crazy. only person i know as crazy as me. he has kept it interesting

-----
xersize
i lost my winter coat. it feels good.
-----
RIVER FEST
little rock riverfest. biggest stage i could ever hope to play on. it was a great time. my mom turned me into a nervous wreck but it doesnt take much to do that. we played the same stage as Live. it doesnt seem like much to me now but 7th grade Jay would be jumping in ecstatic girations of sincere joy.
-------
NEW FRIENDS
my upstairs neighbors, now friends. good kids
------
I am now lookin for that summer lovin that olivia sang about.
 i am also trying to return to organized learning this fall,  but i kind of dread the thought.



I am sorry(kinda) if this blog is too much. I know i spelled most of it wrong.
 unfiltered jay



I hope to see you soon.
lets make margaritas and talk about last and next year.
 i'll make guacamole if you bring the chips.

Current mood:  anxious

I got to the house show early and watched a poet named revolver. They are extremely interesting but it wasnt they best i have seen them play.
After a couple of beers i decided to use the bathroom. I kept hearing faint sounds and i said "Hello?". After i finished my biz i opened the shower curtain and there was a girl standing in the shower. I didnt know what to think. I just asked what the hell she was doin and walked out. She really pissed me off. I think she was either doin drugs or on drugs. Who else would stand in the shower.
    I went to watch Velcro Stars and the girl came up behind me. I dont think she was following me but you never know. She kept touching me and gettin in my space and breathin hard in Dennis' ear. I turned around and told her not to fuckin touch me. (i have no patience for orange haired drugged out crazy bitches). I turned around and she poured her beer on my head. I looked into her face and she was obviously fucked up on somethin. Velcro Stars sounded  awesome so she couldnt ruin my night. I just kept on jammin.
This kinda shit could only happen to me.

Current mood:  hungry

My friend Julie wrote this and i think it is nice -

As we grow up, we learn
that even the one person
that wasn't supposed to
ever let you down
probably will.
You will have your heart broken
probably more than once
and it's harder every time.
You'll break hearts too,
so remember how it felt
when yours was broken.
You'll fight with your best friend.
You'll blame a new love
for things an old one did.
You'll cry because
time is passing too fast,
and you'll eventually lose
someone yo u love.
So take too many pictures,
laugh too much,
and love like you've never been hurt
because every sixty seconds
you spend upset
is a minute of happiness
you'll never get back

I unfortunately found Rambo dead today. I had to call my best friend and tell him his dog was hit by a car. That was the hardest thing i have had to do in a long time.

He was the most loyal dog i have ever known.

I am going to miss that mutt..
