Jamming again with the guys only! It's the guys-out jamming day! The 14-year old girls couldn't come so it was a sausage fest jamming session.
I went to Darren's house first so he can teach me bass tabs. I kinda ended up just fiddling with my bass and getting my fingers sore. Ever since Darren pointed out I was off-tune yesterday I've been noticing I'm... really off-tune. I am so disappointed with myself. Anyway, we headed to the Bugis jamming studio, where we played The Beginning over and over again, then Wherever you Are once, and Re:Make once, then The Beginning again. We're almost getting that down perfectly XD But lack of strong vocals is screwing us over. Today, Vincent sang, but... Well, he's... low. I mean, I really want him in the band, but I can't think of what he could do, since Natasha's vocals beat him on every front. He'd have to train his pitch and power a lot more to make up for it. I'm no vocals expert, so I really shouldn't be commenting or nothing, but it's easy for him to get drowned out by the instruments because he's so low D: Darren would make for great vocals but he can't multi-task, and I can't even though I know the tunes and shit because I'm so off-tune. Just choosing low songs for him isn't a great solution either, because there aren't a lot of low-tune songs... Mmmghhh...
Kenji brought his drummer friend as well, and he's better than Andy in keeping in rhythm even though he just listened to The Beginning 15 minutes before he played.
I feel so bad for my friends. I really want to support them, but I have to admit skill-wise they have their asses handed to them. I can't even begin to imagine how they feel. Maybe when a pro bassist comes down and takes my place I'll feel it too. Wonder how much they'll improve after today... Our band has a lot of improvement to do before we can go pro... Shit...
I bought the coolest jacket from Darren, but it's too small. Fuck my life. I don't know what to do.
