Just finished that essay that I sent you yesterday...is was facinating!! going to look for those wallflowers songs now...

Fuzz · 11-06-2003, 03:41 PM

lol..."I'm looking through you" was cute...any beatles' song that any band trys to cover normally doesn't come out quite, right? Except when Lifehouse covered "Something"...ahh that's a good one

"Feels like Summer Again" rocks!!! -Adam

Erika · 11-06-2003, 11:34 PM

Hey

I love their cover, in fact, they do it better than the Beatles ever did. But you must hear the version I have, to realize it.

Andrew · 11-07-2003, 08:19 AM

Quit talking about things that I don't understand!

Fuzz · 11-07-2003, 06:00 PM

Alright Erika, and as soon as I get my computer de-virused so I can send and recieve files on MSN again we'll try sending it again...virus's are sooo annoying!!
Oh and Erika...as for the 2.7 million dollars thing from yesterday, I don't think you ever caught on that I was refering to your resale value on www.humanforsale.com :P I wasn't just randoming pulling a number from somewhere, lol...-Adam

Erika · 11-10-2003, 10:38 PM

Fuzz · 11-11-2003, 06:48 PM

aw..I'm sorry. *hug* -Adam

Erika · 11-12-2003, 01:46 AM

Wow...people love me

Thanks Adam *hugs back*
Kepa! Wow! like...ummm...where to start? YAY QUESTIONS!

Quote:

So I'm older than you by 12 days or something?

Yeah. I'm March 20th, which makes you exactly 12 days older

Quote:

Doing anything for christmas?

Quote:

Going to Christmas in the Park?

but I'm gonna watch it on tv...if there aren't Guardian reruns. It's gonna kill me when the season is finished!

Quote:

Have you got any soundfiles of yourself playing guitar or singing?

Nah, my mic is broke. It's been broke forever, and I'm broke too, which means it won't be fixed for ages! But when I do, I'll send yall one

Quote:

What kind of guitar do you have?

I had a beautiful classical guitar which was made in Cheqzslovakia (sp??) with an unpronouncable name, but it broke

so now I am guitarless. And it is un-fixable

Thank God for my keyboard.

Quote:

Do you have multiple guitars?

nope, but Adam has like six. Tell him to share *pouts*

Quote:

Do you have any photo's of your gear?

Somewhere, I have one of me and my guitar. Want me to dig it out?

Quote:

Do you have G.A.S???? (Gear Acquisition Syndrome =])

Yeah. That depends what you mean by gear though. I'm first and foremost a writer, which is why I try not to live at the CGR lit. forum (not that anyone ever R.c.'s my stuff anyways, except starboard wake, and he's always really NICE about it. when he's nice, i know i've done well. so go r.c. it.) I have a zillion different types of pens, notepads, stuff on the computer to help me with it, dictionaries, jakob dylan quotes....

Quote:

What denomination are you?

I'm a CHRISTIAN! A follower of Jesus...I don't have a home church anymore since we moved house. I am lonely where we moved to, but we don't have to move again at least my family doesn't, so I can't really complain. I was in a great Anglican church, til the youth group kinda died, then I went to my mum's church, which was Baptist.

Quote:

Are you part of the worship team at that church?

I was. I played guitar and sung at the Anglican, and I sung a few times at the Baptist, but I hated the Baptist one. They killed the songs

BUt I loved leading the worship

Quote:

Do you think it's going to be a really hot summer?

I hope not. I like warm, but there is a place where it gets too hot and eveyrone just about dies like in Europe. Lol!!!

Quote:

What kinda computer do you have?

CTX monitor, Arche tower, Edtasonic speakers. It's mum's really, the one I'm buying will be an IBM compat. comp, and it will be AMD Athlon XP 2000+ 3DNow Pro, SSE, QuantiSpeed, 128k L 1, 256k L 2 OnChi. (It's confusing to me.)

Quote:

What are some of your favourite bands?
And from those bands, what are some of your favourite songs?

I love the Wallflowers. Jakob Dylan is ten times the man his father is, and ever can be, and he is a GREAT guitarist. I like Syrus (www.syrusrock.cjb.net, they're playing at parachute on the mainstage next year, you must go see them. they're great guys, it's just a shame they haven't discovered CGR yet. Shall we bombard them with spam ordering them to visit?) and their song Duplication, and I really really like Chris Rice, Mark Schultz, Smalltown Poets, and I am guilty of liking Counting Crows. Please don't kill me. Favorite songs? You must download the Wallflower's song Pleasantville, and you must also hear their songs Feels Like Summer Again and Empire of my Mind. Mark Schultz does a great song with Chris Rice called Holy One, Counting Crows do Long December, and Smalltown Poets do the marvellous Anything Genuine. Lol. Long answer for a simple question. But my biggest influence is the Wallflowers. They are GREAT.

Quote:

Do you have a cellphone, and if so, what brand?

If you had the money, would you buy the matrix phone?

Yes. Alactel 525, a real girly phone. 021 385 940

which tells you it's a vodafone. And if I had the money to buy a matrix phone, I'd probly buy a car instead

Quote:

Do you like the Matrix?

I have never seen the Matrix

ever. We must do something to remedy this sad state of affairs.

Quote:

Do you believe it's feasable that we are actually trapped in the matrix and that Keanu Reeves really can fly?!?!?!
Have you ever been contained in a mental asylum, hehe =]

Umm...anything's possible. But Keanu Reeves flying? Bah. Mental asylum?? Hah no but I knwo there is one in Tokoroa. I have a friend who lives there.

Quote:

If air is all around us and we can't see it... yet it is actually physically made out of atoms and molecules that are further spaced than say liquid or solid... what is all around the air?????? (I must copy this question to my blog... =])

LOVE MAN!! Well. Andrew Peterson tells us so anyway. "The music we make is the light of the world...let there be light, let there be love, let there be music". Or in the words of Emily Dickinson, "This world is not conclusion, a species stands beyond, Invisible as music, and tangible as sound."

HA!
Thanks Andrew, I'll hold you to that

So um. How have you guys all been? I am tired, but I feel a little bit more happy now. I have been listening to the Wallflowers, and they make me feel like a million bucks. And i had a real lazy day.
Kepa, are you goign to Parachute? You live in Auck right? Do you hate it there? Are you going to uni next year?

How did it break???
You play keyboard as well?!?! Very cool! We need a keyboardist for our band... *ahem* =]

6! Nice! My dream is to have atleast 20 guitars. Hehe, Steve Vai has over 100 =] That's not including all of this other instruments =]

Hehe, I hate when people kill songs. Some of the songs that we play at our church have been killed, but you've gotta submit to authority right? (Unless you form a revolt with the band and play everything how you want to play it.... HAHAHAHAHA... not that I've done that or anything........

)

Ahh cool, I've never heard of Syrus before. I shall check out their site. And neither have i heard of Chris Rice, Mark Schultz or Smalltown Poets, I'll do a search for them as well. Hehe, i won't kill you for liking Counting Crows. You'd probably kill me for liking metallica =]

That's a great answer. Which sorta goes hand in hand with my pastor's answer. He said it was most likely God. God being love and all, makes you guys on the same page =]

That's great that you feel more happy now!

Nope I'm not going to Parachute. Not my kinda music =]
Yep I live in Auckland =]
Nope I don't hate it here. I love it here. If I wasn't here, I wouldn't have met all these great people. And I probably wouldn't be on CGR =]
Uni next year? Nup. I want to work next year. Save up enough money to go to either Excel or Bible College. We'll see what happens =]
How about yourself?
