Well the reason I am drawn to the swastika is because I’m into symbols. I think it’s really cool that a simple image can convey an idea or philosophy. And can inspire deep rooted feelings and reactions in people. Allegiances, hatred, etc.
Symbols are very unique because they are not quite pictures and not quite words. Unique concept in our human vocabulary.
then why not use the letter “R” or the umlaut or the schwa those are all symbols!
And my last name is “Cymbol” but I use “Symbol” for stage name or what have you.
That was beyond creative!! Mad Props!
The swastika is of particular interest because it inspires fear and hatred in many people and is shocking. People are taken aback for a second when they see it. It is a particularly powerful symbol, where something like say the cross is so common as to lose its potency somewhat in daily life.
the swastika is as common as ca ross for exactly the same reasons. charlie manson made it passe 40 years ago!
I most certainly do not say “biz”
You’re really offended at that?
Who cares if you do? You’re pretending to live the rock star life in every other aspect, talking and behaving all pretentious like, complaining about the struggles of groupies and self control…might as well go there too!
I am working on losing a bit more weight.
Jesus, really? My breath looks stronger than you you might wanna nix that idea.
I have a tad of a gut in that picture but it’s actually liver inflammation because I had been drinking at the time it was taken.
cause you’re so rock[ star right?
It’s actually the opposite of doing drugs and drinking that I am after these days. I am trying to be really healthy and work out a lot. That’s the only way to sustain the kind of body/look I want.
and drinking to the point of liver inflammation is gonna help you get that? Check out the whole working out thing that’s not gonna make you lose weight especially when you already have -5% body fat
And no I don’t want to be covered in tattoos.
you’re such a Vanilla rock star!
PS my friend moved in with Ginger Fish (Manson drummer) in LA so fingers crossed things may start picking up for me in a bit. I might move out there.
Why would Ginger fish need a roommate?
so you’re hoping to ride the coattails of your friends leachniess? Lofty goals!
My struggle now is whether to stick with BLACKBOMBS where we are stuck in the goth industrial box or step out and do something where I am the main guy again and find new people.
low level city boy struggling to maintain his mediocrity in the face of harsh creative decisions! CALL ROLLING STONE NOW
I think I have much better ideas than the singer of BLACKBOMBS…
Then what the fuck are you waiting for?
The hardest thing to me about music (aside from making good songs obviously) is finding the right band and keeping it together.
What makes the right band? you telling peeps what to do and them doing it? Thought Blackbombs was well the bomb. what happened, baby?
That is honestly half the stress and battle. You have to be very diplomatic and think of everybody like little pieces on a chessboard…
to successfully manipulate them?
<shakes head slowly and dramatically>
