Is nobody going to talk about the fact that Kirk and Richard are brothers in nails? Seriously?

One painted nail at a time. 💅

this is my heart, please don't break it

#listen to me sing #my dad is playing guitar #this was extremely fun and now everyone else gets to listen to it too #anyway i first sang this at my brother's wedding as his first dance #i love making my sister in law cry btw #sometimes i sing

on the topic of music. a difference btwn how my wife and i listen to/enjoy music is she really only cares about lyricism whereas while i like good lyrics i can identify with or pick apart and study, i really really love technical skill and the actual instrumental elements in music. uhhh child of musician syndrome probably but i think that probably does contribute to our differences with like metal especially. while there is a lot of lyrical depth in a lot of the bands i like i enjoy a lot of artists purely for their skill as musicians. i think thats probably obvious from the way i talk abt music when i do on here

#txt #my dads a guitarist like. what can i say i like picking apart the layers in music and i especially love metal #a genre that is generally characterized by skilled guitar playing and mutiple levels of guitar parts and im like. yeah gimme gimme

the red/orange is custom obviously but yeah I finally figured it out after a month of scratching my head like "that's not a jazz bass... doesn't look like a telecaster... he's clearly not playing a Squier anymore..." I have figured it out. thank you gettyimages

#the smaller text on the headstock does look like a different font than the website's so that's still slightly a mystery to me #but it's SOOO satisfying to have finally figured this out without even having to go ask my dad skdkfjskfn #anyway I love the fact that he's using three different versions of the same bass just in different colors for this tour akdkfjskfj #honestly though I do love how the pickguard is such an unusual shape though it looks very cool #she speaks! #fob #fall out boy #pete wentz #I was just thinking that the tuner layout on his bass is super distinct bc usually all four are on the upper side of the headstock #but this one has one of them on the bottom which is pretty recognizable imo #(I'm used to teles or p basses bc my dad is generally a fender guy) #also pete's has less knobs on the body??? idk man I'm just some random nerd who likes bass guitars

#yeah i'll say it again: i am just positively infatuated with kendall in this shirt <3 #god his fits this tour have been pure serving. the tucked shirts and pop punk waist plaid + ripped jeans (even literally ajajaja) and round #sunglasses and miami sunnies and twinning with carlos and even beige fisherman schmidt with the hat drip....stg i could go on forever #also the tank tops with red & black pattern/starry pyjama pants!!! and the shiny pink jackets they wore for madison square garden!!! #and we can't ever forget the pride slash trans flags that he was vv gentle with bc we stan an iconic supportive king!!! [loot dropped: 👑] #DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON KEN WITH THE ELECTRIC GUITAR BC EVERY TIME I THINK ABOUT IT I FEEL LIKE JUMPING RIGHT INTO A RUSSIAN SINKHOLE #AND PSA BUT COWBOY HAT KENDALL CROONING COUNTRY SONGS I WAMNA KISS HIS CHEEK COUNTRY BOY I LOVE YOUUU #i'll forgive my mild gripe with the dad hat that's welded to his head (freethefloof2k22!!!) bc this man is gorgeously glowing onstage 😍 #btr #big time rush #kendall schmidt #forever tour #btr forever tour #photoset #edit #mine #lockscreen #wallpaper #rusher #btredit #kendork #stop it forever #a perfect original #big time concerts #had a little too much fun with this comfort edit but i rlly like the way it turned out??? the colours are just mwah c'est magnifique :'> #i'd love to do concert edits of the other boys but i'm mad lazy and looking at tour photos makes me too emotionally unstable :/ #also every time i see 'in bloom' my mind immediately goes to both the nirvana and the neck deep song so um. ✨ the more you know ✨ #and i think there's something else written on this shirt just below the flowers but i can't be bothered to rectify the caption anymore >_> #in conclusion: i love kendall francis schmidt with everything that i've got and i'd risk it all for him. if you even care btw

#photos of my guitar my dad posted to his blog years back when he bought it #it’s the most beautiful guitar in the world. it feels warm and alive to play #as you can see in the first two pics it used to have a newer pickup installed on the bottom. luckily he found an era appropriate online #it’s from 82 if you were curious #it says squire on the headstock but it was made on the fender line. they bought squire out and swapped in the name soon after this #but he got it a little cheaper than it was worth at the time because people aren’t as autistic as him and don’t know about production lines #basically it wasn’t brand name #basswood body and dark rosewood on the neck 😋✌️ #it’s actually a replication of a ‘62 model! which was 20 years old at the time. mines now twice that. isn��t that incredible #i actually saw a modern fender replication of this exact model in an op shop yesterday #for more or less exactly how much this was bought for #dad finished his blog post by saying he thinks this is better made than the original. and despite not knowing the og i’m inclined to agree #people in the comments of his post are saying that this era was supposed to be something special. hehe. they’re right #i’ve played many guitars. i own this one because my dad collects them and he let me try them all out #and i have a lot of friends who play guitar and ive hung out with them to do so #and i’ve never felt one like mine before or since. it’s so obviously beautiful #when i picked it out i hadn’t played much but i knew right away how good it was. i prefer strat bodies because i can hug my torso around #them without getting poked like a tele and the necks are thinner than acoustics (small hands. bad) #unless we’re talking parlour #love a wee parlour. pa has a little one he got for 30 bucks that’s one of my favourites of his #he’s insanely good at finding deals #he fixes them all up #anyway. the body feels #how would you even describe it #heavy. and alive. warm and wet and still full of sap #i feel like it’s breathing #it’s sort of the only thing that motivates me to be better. i could cry just thinking about it. i want to be good enough to play it

..elle i saw the last mcmg gifset and now im forced to remember that these boys were in a band im having flashbacks to thirteen years ago help me

Unfortunately, I cannot help you, as I listen to Main Statement so much that I've pinned it to the top of my library in Spotify.

#i love that okada did extra guitar and some voice over for the album too lol #i wish they had the lyrics published somewhere because my brain can't tell what all of the words are #but yeah im obsessed sorry i cannot help you i can only make it worse #night #elle's mailbox #mcmg #jay's disappointed dads

#last night we were both a little sleepy. #a little wine-drunk. #i asked him to play me something on the guitar while i leaned on his shoulder. #he said he only knows a few songs. i said that's fine #whatever you want. #first song: like real people do by hozier #which has a very tender place in my heart because it's the last song i sang for a real performance (2015). #so i still know all the words. #and he didn't know that! #it just happened to be the song. #anyway it was 1230am. anyway my jacket smells like his apartment. #anyway early this morning i said i thought romance was built of small acts of devotion. like how every morning my dad makes my mom coffee #because she sleeps worse and takes longer to wake up and he wants her to not have to worry about another thing in the morning. #when she comes downstairs every day he has it ready for her to take to work. #he makes it separately because he drinks an entirely different coffee than she does. but he makes it because he wants her to have it. #it's one of many small repeated acts of love they do for each other. they're still in love with each other after 30 years. #anyway my boyfriend is a notorious instant coffee fiend. #it's easy and he likes the flavor. #but when we got up this morning he pulled out a bag of coffee beans and a hand-grinder and said: would you like me to make you coffee?

hanging out with my coworkers is such a delight miss me with that i hate my coworkers lifestyle i go out to drink sangria with mine to simultaneously juggle conversations between ingmar bergmans daughter, stand up comedy bits, the question of how much is lost in translating ancient greek and planning on how to steal passion fruit that was ripe for the taking in this very specific open space

#<3 what an incoherent lovable beautiful group which i adore so much #someone used an expression i HAD NEVER heard and i thought it was literal so we died laughing for 30 minutes #one of my coworkers was like.. and can you believe he took his guitar and put it away #and i was like. wait there was a guitar?? he had a guitar?? #and... apparently thats an idiom that exists. somewhere somehow #i just figured the man had a guitar with himself which he resolutely decided to put away #one of my coworkers forgot to put his son his second sandwich of the day and the child was like... dad... where was my food??? #and the way he told this was so funny i had to gasp for myself. what an animal. to forget to pack the SECOND sandwich of the day. how dareh #no father of the year award for him ive assured him #anyways life is really on what you decide to keep and to cherish and to love #then THEN i had roland barthes in my bag and one of my coworkers saw and she was like #CAN U BELIEVE A TEACHER OF MINE HAD CLASSES WITH HIM #and i was like... the times we live??? what the fuck?? #im 3 handshakes away from barthes you guys

I think my roots are showing/ these guitar chords certainly are/ I am and have always been a bass player's daughter/ the notes don't go up very far/ we make the same faces most of the time/ but my hair usually covers mine/ the lowest of lows are what we call high/ but even for us the sun shines

#little poem for me and my dad bc I'm trying to decide which new paramore song to send him with a little text that says #''I found you a cool new bass line!'' because that's how we communicate. #I've never stuck with an instrument very long myself (though I love piano and need to practice more) but I Know the bass lines he'll go for #(I'd also love to learn electric guitar someday. he's got a bass 6 that's so cool I love it so much. low notes go brrrr) #Lu rambles #Lu writes #sometimes i think i could write poetry #<- that's my poetry tag not me being self-deprecating sjdjdjdkfnsj

venting sorry. i get emotional thinking of the media both me and my dad loved growing up and the father daughter bonds that were the highlights of those movies and tv shows to him and i feel like i failed

#my dad and i used to watch adventure time together and my dad LOVED simon and marcy and he learnt daddy why did you eat my fries on the #guitar and i used to sing it with him. and one time when i was 14 ish and severely depressed and anxious we had people over #and my dad was talking about adventure time lmao and was getting his guitar and wanted me to sing it with him and i just said NO. #because i was mad at him. and embarassed. and we never sung it together ever again. its been too long now. that window has closed. #but i wish we could #my relationships with my dad never really recovered after my teen years and its hard to talk to him. #i wish i could talk to him. we are really similar. in the bad ways too #vent #SORRY GUYS i need to find a therapist #my family just never talks abt their feelings. or when they do its when theyre angry. i dont feel like i can bring this up to them. #i just hate knowing i rejected my dad like that. he probably saw me not wanting to sing w him as very personal. not that hed ever say it #AND FUCKIN INTERSTELLAR me and my dad both loved interstellar at a time when i was -again- severely depressed and locking myself in my room #and the father and daughter go have scenes that feel very similar to things that were going on in my house at the time. where shes #baracading the door and not letting people in. it rly hit home is what im saying #and my dad loved the movie i loved it too but the family relationships in the movie were never discussed whenever we talked abt it #but for christmas one year my dad gave me a watch. like the one fuckin matthew mcconoughey give his daughter in the movie #and i wear it all the time. it makes me fuckin cry sometimes that stupid fucking watch. but it means so much. #i just wish hed talk abt his fucking feelings so i wouldnt need a watch to know my dad still loves me #also this post is about transitioning and my dad feeling like he lost that father daughter bond with me but we wont get into all that

[kidfur]

i think the reason i like stuff like math rock so much is bc it vaguely reminds me of the wild thornberrys movie? i always get choked up at it, really any cartoon movie with a strong father/daughter relationship, like dbs super hero.. i think its cuz my dad used to not pay much attention to me compared to my sibling, they were always obviously his favorite. but now that theyre grown up and moved out, and im still a kid, i get to be his favorite kid and get all his attention

#wishy speaks #maybe im a lil selfish.. but oh well #point is #guitar stuff just makes me really nostalgic and happy and reminds me of how much i love my dad

[wavesoutbeingtossed]

OOOOOH GODDAMN MY PAIN FITS IN THE PALM OF YOUR FREEZING HAND 😭

#in all seriousness #one of my core memories of this song #is sitting in my backyard in the summer of 2021 #playing this on the speaker #and my dad noodling around on his guitar and playing along #(I love listening to my dad play) #because the very first time I heard 'ivy' i thought 'dad would play this so beautifully' #anyway!

I feel like at least several times a month, I have a random insane revitalization of my love for The Smiths. Not that I ever stop loving them, but I'll listen to some song and then suddenly fall into this pit of just deep, intense love for their music again where I can't stop listening to their music on repeat and watching live performances and looking at pics like AAAAAHHHHHH WHY IS THEIR MUSIC SO GOOOD?????? WHY IS IT PERFECT?????? WHY WERE THEY SO GENDER???????

(songs I am feeling intense brainrot over rn in case you're curious: "I Want The One I Can't Have(live)", "Stretch Out and Wait(live)", "You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby", "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others(demo)", "What She Said", "The Boy With The Thorn in His Side(live)"(p.s. I Want The One I Can't Have is Martian-coded to me, pls listen)(also it reminds me of that movie I watched yesterday)

#i want the one i cant have is playing on repeat in my brain rn and i watched a live performance and i was tearing up. why am i like this #the live versions of their songs are just incredibly good like at an insane level to me #i know the guitar is very complicated bcs my brother is equally obsessed w the smiths and rants to me abt how hard their music is to play #so the fact that their live performances are equal if not better than their studio versions is crazy #and i love the way he sings in live versions AAAAHHHH like just so over the top and dramatic #i absolutely love singing along to music and their songs are perfect bcs i can be as dramatic and loud as i want #and that hes singing perfectly and dramatizing it so much also while dancing along to it on stage?????? #their music has an energy to it in every single aspect that no other band will ever be able to reach for me #i spent so much of today just dancing along to their music and singing over the top. i just felt so joyful 🥹🥹🥹🥹 #GAAAHHHH sorry i just am really in it rn hahaha #its just crazy to me ig that ive listened to these songs so many times and they still fill me with such emotion #my mom sings and dance along w me tho shes like 'wow youre so energetic today did you hit your head or smth' 😭😭😭 #also was losing my mind looking at their pictures today and gahhhhhhhhb such gender envy their gender is unmatched to me #but its so funny every time i get gender envy over smiths era morrissey + #because theres some pics of my dad from that same period of time when he was younger where he literally looks exactly like morrissey #SIR WHY DID I NOT INHERIT YOUR LEVEL OF GENDER???????(my dad was a icon sjdkkd we look alike tbh) #anyways: i feel very joyful and energetic about their music. they just make me so happy and i want to dance around again 🥹 #i think this recent lapse into the pit was bcs i listened to the demos/live versions on The Queen is Dead deluxe edition #and im like ....how the fuck are they this fucking good?????? #hehehe tho my passion has affected others 🤭 #my brother is learning some songs on guitar atm and waxes poetic abt their instrumentals #my dad always listens to their entire discography when he needs background music. and my mom sings and dances w me #sorry this is unhinged i just feel a lot of serotonin bcs their music and i need to infect other people LMAO #maybe i need to make another web weave #catie.rambling.txt
