"The Dead Generation Someone shouts 'My mom would have made a better performance'"

Ouch.

I hope everyone enjoys their fat paychex for TPIH

Indeed

Certainly a nice boost to the $4 I had in my pocket after a desperate attempt to boost my 'mood'... which failed

Yeah... saw that too. I kicked his ass after the show and all his friends laughed at him for getting beaten up by a girl

We also had people throw underwear on the stage again though so I guess it kinda balances out

Congrats to Never Dies for breaking the 100 fans at a show mark

Was good to see the band together and I thought your version of Tear It! was really cool. I dig the bagpipes solos

Is anyone can post somewhere a list with who everyone plays? I'm a bit lazy to search in all those posts...

I mean something like "shadd666: John Estrada (Never Dies / bagpipes)", etc.

The next three weekends The Dead Generation will be heading out of town for shows in Toronto in 8 days, then Los Angeles and London the next two wknds.

TDG members should start saving up for tickets and hotel fares. I can't buy those things for people but if you're saving for a book let me get it for ya and keep your money to pay for the other stuff. I figure we're making enough weekly via salary we should be able to handle it. We should focus on writing songs and improving our skills during the week and of course we'll be jamming any new songs and keeping the oldies sharp.

After our three London shows we'll release our first single

Awesome minty! Will we need any stage equipment for that other than our instruments?

Flight to toronto already booked 90$...........going out 18-11 @ 06:00

Post by **Minstrel** » Sat Nov 11, 2006 6:20 pm

I messaged my boss about it, and he said it's best to get equipment as soon as you can afford it but to get on the road asap because worldwide popularity is the key for increasing ticket sales and singles/record sales whihcis where you really make the money; his current share of just his band profits would be like 3 mil

Of course you'll see his name in all the top lists since he and a bandmate are #1 and 2 in Star Quality right now

I kept us one "jump" away from NY on the map to keep costs down, and we'll see how it goes. I'm pretty sure that we can only pay for a bus or whatever through band funds so I'm not sure when we'll get that much money

I figure the TO trip will be good because it's a small town in the world of Popo but it will help everyone knock off their plane/hotel momma list items which if you can get the $700 together for an apartment then you can polish the list off and she gives you 500 bucks plus you get 'Basic Manners' at 5 stars so the appt aplication only ends up cost 200 really.

Anyone know if you get put into a hospital for low mood? If so, then I'll probably be there in the next couple of updates. ... I'm doing all I can to boost my mood, but appearently the lack of a love life will drop your mood like rock, no matter what else you're doing

I don't know if mood will do it to you but I know health will. I'm heading that way! My health is in the red. I've got to hang out at the gym and hope for the best. My mood was pretty low for a while too. I just set my career priority to "picking flowers" for 3 or 4 updates. It sucks but it works. So does shopping.

Get drunk of your face. It's worked for me twice. Will really bring down your health though.

oh my goodness, I had to borrow 1213$ from my date to pay the bill....how awkward! darn, i can not believe a date can cost this much... and I thought I chose the cheapest romantic place...New Amsterdam.............darn it.

Post by **Minstrel** » Sun Nov 12, 2006 9:42 am

This is why I don't accept dates... figured out early on that they do nothing but suck your money down the tubes and end up harming your relationships because you had a terrible time.

It's a lose/lose situation

Post by **B. Stinson** » Sun Nov 12, 2006 5:40 pm

Well, I guess low mood can get you in the hospital, 'cause I'm there "for depression." And worse yet, Murphy's Law is killing me, 'cause I had a jam session today at 8... but I was in the hospital and couldn't go. Probably wouldn't have mattered though, because I forgot I had it, which makes two of three jam sessions that I have forgotten about so-far

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 3:02 pm

The game is scheduled to be down today and tomorrow, right?

When are we supposed to be leaving to go on tour? I hope I have time to get my tickets and stuff once the game is back up.

thecoolstuff · Post by **thecoolstuff** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 3:06 pm

uh...can anyone access popomundo site? It's been "The Page Can Not Be Found" for me.

Post by **Calv** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 3:06 pm

there's some downtime this week as they're doing some server maintenance(I think), they may be moving the server, not sure

Post by **Shadd666** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 4:21 pm

They told that they move the server

so Popomundo is unaccessible for 2 days (today and tomorrow)

Post by **Minstrel** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 8:22 pm

Yes, the Dark Times are upon us

Unfortunately I got kinda burned, I was trying to sneak in one "Talk to the media" update before they closed it down and then switch back to upgrading my skillz but I guess they meant early morning their time not early morning PopoTime

Oh well, the press will do us good...

Our tour is the next three weekends with the first date being Toronto on Saturday so you should have plenty of time to get your tix and the flight is cheap 90 for 2nd Class and like 212 or something for AprilStyle aka 1st Class

oxenhoper · Post by **oxenhoper** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 7:46 am

Is that the new term flying April class..............

Well, ya know... April likes to think she's a larger than life rock star so for her the question isn't "Why are you flying 1st class?" it's "Why wouldn't I fly First Class?" Or April Class if you will

oxenhoper · Post by **oxenhoper** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 8:12 pm

Now back up and running...................

Post by **E5150_ca** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 8:31 pm

And slow as all heck.
