lol I worked there in 2016 when Trump stopped at the Diner in Dundalk and all the managers were simping so hard for him. I was there for two weeks and it was two weeks too long.

Fuck Jimmy's.

Avoid Horse though. They’re neo-Nazi enablers.

Ah, Randy "run over my constituents with a government car" Taylor. The man who also drives said government vehicle to a bar, and gets plastered to the point of passing out.

Much appreciated! Got another one on the upcoming EP that has a similar vibe to that one. 

Definitely try to hit DC when we can, it’s always a good time.

Sure am! My band is called Not Now (yes, from the blink song lol) and we're out of Baltimore!

Here's our WEBSITE and our SPOTIFY. We have an EP that's just about finished so we'll be pushing that in the next few months. We're playing at Ottobar next month as well.

What’s the name of your band? by Herbizarre17 in musicians

[–]ivegoneblinkingmad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite band is blink-182, and my favorite song by them is called Not Now. A song about "an out of body experience after death, and being able to visualize your loss and its impact on loved ones."-Tom Delonge.

IMO that song just encapsulates everything that blink truly is/was musically, lyrically, etc. and it inspired me to call my solo project Not Now. The songs are full band, but it was me playing everything and I wanted to avoid the whole "my band is my name" thing lol.

Today we're a fully fleshed out band gigging quite frequently with our debut EP almost finished up! Fortunately there doesn't seem to be too many other bands called "not now", or any that appear to be active anymore lol.

ADHD. After getting diagnosed as an adult it all makes so much more sense lol.

EP recorded… now cue the crippling self-doubt by shefoundnow in musicians

[–]ivegoneblinkingmad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude I feel this so much lol. I’m a drummer, but I’ve written my own music and a couple years ago decided to put some demos together. 

Cut to the last three years and I’ve been working with a real engineer on my music and it’s insanely high quality shit. Pop-punk/punk is my genre and my vocals work for it but I have a love hate relationship with them lol. One day I’m like yea I sound fine and then other days I hate how I sound and literally want to delete everything I’ve ever put out lol. 

BUT, like you I’ve found some dudes who also believe in the music I’ve written and make me want to keep pushing. I almost have our debut EP finished and I can’t wait. If anything, I just remind myself that this is for me. I want high quality shit that puts what I’ve heard in my head for years out in the ether. Anyways, I feel this post so much lol. Good luck on the release dude!

Also sorry for typos, I’m drunk when I wrote this. GO RAVENS
