Love In The Eyes...

Soo, that gig that seemed so far away is five days away. What? And still we're not referring to our songs by their actual names. The delay one, Drop D, and the acoustic one...it's alright for the others, but I've got to remember the actual names to say them on stage! And I'm not currently sure what the name of one of them is...it's either

A) The Story of A Lonely Hearted Girl
B) Love In The Eyes of A Lonely Hearted Girl
C) Love In The Eyes
D) Lonely Hearted Girl

I guess whatever comes out of my mouth on Saturday is the actual name from now on!

I'm supposed to be driving there, because...oh yeah, I PASSED MY TEST! But Dad's being all arsey about it and has changed his mind back and forth, and back and forth. It'd be so much easier for everyone, especially me, given that I'm working all day before and after!

We've built this gig up so much, for what reason I'm not too sure. But I can't wait! I've sold so many tickets as well, I can't wait to just get up there and nail it! Especially after Baa Bar. No matter what anyone says, that, plus the time in The Cavern with the Fretz is the low point of my musical career so far. And I can't bury a bad performance behind drink this time, I'm in work at ten the next day!

We're sounding good though. It's definitely the most ready we've been, and we've got a brilliant set. I can't wait for everyone to hear our new one, 'What Goes Around Comes Around', and the long complicated title one as mentioned above has had a non-acoustic makeover.

I'm seriously psyched up! And of course I shall update with how it goes, as per usual.

Chow! xxx

So I finally took the plunge.

After months of resistance, I finally created a blog...a real one, that you can all read, which is a step away from my last attempt, when I decided that what I'd written was not for the eyes of the public...which kind of defeats the point of a blog. Oh well.

So welcome to my world, you might like it, you might not, but whatever outcome, you clicked on this link so it's your problem! I think I feel an evil laugh coming on...excuse me...

Okay, so time for a little background then. The name's Heather, I'm 19, nearly 20 (Eek!) and am studying English Literature SLASH Creative Writing at Edge Hill Univeristy. And that is because I love reading and writing. Writing especially. I've got so much weird stuff floating around this head of mine, that it'd be insane not to write it down. I'm currently working on a book, which I haven't named yet, but have redrafted about three times since 2008 without actually finishing it...apparently that's not good, so I'm really sticking with it this time. Even though it bears hardly any resemblence to the original plot whatsoever. So, look out for my work in a shop near you sometime around 2047.

As well as writing fiction, I write my own music. I'm a singer-songwriter like.
Ha.
I'm a vocalist for a band called Dear Chicago, I'll link it in somewhere, when I properly work this out. I have no idea what genre we'd be classed in, probably somewhere between pop (although the rest of the band would probably kill me for saying that...sorry guys) and something else. All I know is that we're not indie, cos Sean (who plays rythym guitar) told me so. We've got some decent songs though, so you should come down to one of our gigs.

Sorry about the shameless plug there!

So, now you know a bit about me, I'm sure you're looking forward to the first of my innane ramblings! Or maybe not...
