Title: So I'm more or less back again... :)
Post by: Oz on Mar 28, 2005, 01:13 PM
Hi there everybody,

As some of you might have noticed, I haven't been around that much lately. Things have not been all that well, especially when it came to stress and mental health and inner peace and such and some things still aren't, but that shouldn't be a reason to never be in contact with you guys anymore. So... I've been listening quite a lot to Joy Division lately, and I've been into obscure singer/songwriters such as Kimya Dawson, Pien Feith and Will Johnson, of whom only Pien Feith is obscure, really, but what the heck. And I'm a postman, wich is a fucking tiring job and not good if you're still trying to study, wich I am. Oh, and I've got my own computer with ultrafast internet, though a little bit too fast for my old computer, so often he can't even handle it. Oh well. I can post on this site at 3 in the morning now and that's a good thing, I guess. So, how have you been?

Hey, good to see you back. Hope things are looking better for you. A postman! That must keep you fit. What are you studying, by the way?

Sweatboard, Tundra and I got to 500 posts joined the 5 star dodgeball team. You need to look at that thread because you're on the team too  :D   This is it:

There's talk of a second tribute album. We've got some new members who are asking about shows and DVDs. We haven't had much to tell them.

It was MMJfanatic's birthday last week.

I'll get back if I think of anything else. Welcome back  ;D

Good summation, dith!  (O, did you know about John's baby?)

Welcome back.  Don't cut your hair.  (Unless you want to.)

What show is Riny talking about?  Have you been playing?

MMJ is a great rock n' roll band, with great fans and a great website.  With MMJ, it is all great!

I hadn't forgotten about Amelia (gosh, I'd hate John to think I had!) but I thought O had said something about her picure. Looking back, it was an ultrasound picture!

More info: the band are playing Bonnaroo but no other shows have been announced. There are some cool pictures of them on the Elizabethtown movie thread.

Happy reading, O  :D

Anybody tell you that the band are playing in Holland next month?

Didn't thinks so. Probably because they aren't. But we live in hope.

Nice to read you again.

Hey O,

How are things going?

Did you know we did a little tour with the tribute bands during your brief abscence.  We did the west-coast of Alaska and the south-eastern region of Kirgistan.  People went just mad.  :o

Nice to hear you again!

Well, John, how's your kid? And dammit, Lfish, I'm gonna sue you guys! I don't know for what yet, maybe unpaid royalties or something, but I'll get ya for not informing me.  :P

I wasn't expecting the European tour anymore. Given up my hopes.
