The Death and Resurrection of the Grimoire
 |
Current mood:  blissfulCategory: Music Alright, freaks and freakettes, I am offically back, but before the reviews start flying and the writing gets weird, I feel all of you (if you’re still there) are owed: 1) an apology, 2) an explanation, and 3) a promise. THE APOLOGY I am still amazed that people are reading the old “issues” (it’s not really a magazine, is it? I delude myself sometimes, but that’s one of my issues, I guess) and some even check back to see if I have shit or gotten off the pot yet. To those people, especially, I’m sorry for having said there would be reviews, interviews, spews, rants, etc. To the artists I have promised in the past…it’s that much more painful and inexcusable that, as an artist myself, I made those promises. In other words: EPIC FAIL. It’s hokey but it’s true that words can’t describe how mortified I am at having done that. To the rest of you (readers, browsers, pornbots, shirt-chewers, etc.), I’m sorry. THE EXPLANATION
The major culprit behind the silence can be summed up in two words: illness and recession (and those of you who just said “that’s three words”…the Grammar Nazi is out to lunch.) Sometime last July, I went through a protracted peroid of exhaustion, primarily mental, to the point that I was sleeping 12-14 hours a day. Then, the economy shit the bed, and I picked up a job at Mohegan Sun Casino, then the 2nd largest casino in the world. Thinking that dealing cards in a casino wouldn’t be demanding or taxing, I figured “no prob.”
I was more wrong than MTV’s switch to reality shows. It may not look exhausting, but it has taken until the last 3 weeks to not feel constantly exhausted from the place. My health isn’t really a topic; we all get sick, we all get well. I’ll spare you the “I’m-sick” whining; I hate that anyway. I also became keyboardist in a progressive rock band in March, named Awaken Secrets. (I dunno..the name was already there..) And, yes, I said “progressive rock.” It’s not all bad, and we have to prove to the world that there is more than fucking Dream Theatre and Rush, don’t we? THE PROMISE …sigh…I hate commitment…okay, here’s the deal. I will resume this weirdass blog/zine/whatever in the next month or so, but slowly. For now, the issues tallying 100+ songs are in the near but not instant future, thanks to the upgrading (downslowing?) MySpace music jukebox that replaced the old (but serviceable) one. It has become nigh impossible for me to listen to almost anything on artists’ pages due to the “are you still listening?” blurb that interrupts tracks, and due to time-work constraints. In a few short weeks, I will have a p.o. box for the blog/zine/blab and here’s where the deal comes in: Thanks for listening, and I will have something very very soon. Respects to all (even if some of you dont want it…waah) and I’ll see you soon. Scott Mayfield |
