When was the last time you went a whole day without listening to music?

Yeah I need something there otherwise my mind wanders too much and I can't sleep. I had been listening to Nick Cave's Murder Ballads for the last week or so, but last night changed to to Miles Davis' 'Round About Midnight.
 
silence is honestly the best music but the right kind of silence is a rare privilege
If the right kind means only sounds of nature or your own breath or something like that, it's available by choice/short walk and mostly nighttime if you don't live in a city, point #23453 on the list of why living not in a city is good

There'll be a free apartment in olofsfors soon
 
it's not exactly that

i will move out from umeå the day i can get to and from umeå at will and can work from home (and preferably when my entire band(s) move out with me,) until then, no chance in flaming hell
 
I fell asleep at gigs. Several times.

i almost did when i saw esoteric

i went from "this is cool" to "god damn does this ever stop" to "I WANT TO PUNCH THIS GUY IN HIS STUPID FACE" to "zzz" over the course of what felt like ten hours of the same fucking shit

i looked up "overstaying the welcome" in a dictionary and there was a picture of that guy with his stupid headset microphone

'Round About Midnight makes me sleep :p
 
4 weeks back when I worked a 23 hour day...
The first 4 hours (before the 23) were waking up, showering, eating breakfast, (at the hotel, hence no stereo) and heading to the customer site.
 
*Insert bitching about people bitching about long work days here.*

*Insert counter-bitch by other people about how i signed up for it.*

Haha.

I have the opposite experience. I grew up on a farm ten miles from civilization surrounded by chasms, caves and titanwoods. After living in a city for a year, I find it hard as hell to sleep when I go back. TOO GOD DAMN QUIET. At least give me a few ambulances going by in the middle of the night and some screaming crackheads. :lol:
 
10:35am PST and so far so good. Luckily I have a whole fuckton of work to do, so that'll keep me busy. But does this experiment mean I can't even go to a cafe?
 
yeah ok but 23 hours? c'mon. The most I ever did was 36 though :p

Hasn't Germany banned slavery a while ago? o_O

When you're onsite for a project and shit working the next day... then 23 hours ain't so bad. We then had to stay up the rest of the night cause it was too late to get back to our hotel (not much point either), walked for 3 hours until we found a pub, had some beers and some Ouzo and then slept in the trains on the way home.
 
This was going swimmingly until I went to a cafe to get some work done and they played The Chameleons for half an hour :lol:. I tried not to pay attention though.

This is tough. I really want to hear "Jump Into The Fire" by Harry Nilsson right now.
 
Kinda nice to wake up to, isn't it? Though I suppose it might be different if you're fighting the buggers.

Differing opinions among my friends. I for one liked it. Well, 'liked it' depending. Sometimes bone chilling, sometimes soothing, sometimes melancholy, always depending on my current situation. On post behind a machine gun at night far away from friends just after some crazy shit went down, looking into the starlit wilderness for any sign of the enemy...and then the call to prayer starts...sheeeesh. You don't forget that...damn. I haven't thought of these moments in some time.
