Secrets, secrets, always secrets...I WANT THE TRUTH!

NOOOOOOO!!!!1!!!1111 I only played 30 minutes today :'( Tomorrow I must play the guitar at least 4 hours

How do I get the feeling that nowadays 50% of our messages consist of smileys? :erm:

Well, even though you didn't ask, I'll tell you my amp settings, just for laughs

ISF(Infinite Shape Feature, google it if you don't know what it is ): 5.5

I'm doing just fine, though I had to read for tomorrow's biology test and didn't have almost any time to play guitar today And I've had a horrible day anyway.

How about you? Anything new happening in your life?

Oh well, didn't surprise me, anyway. Would've been surprised if I actually found her on google.

Well, I don't really know anything about aliens, care to enlighten me?

Oh... I must play the guitar WAY TOO MUCH...

(Don't judge me...)

Yeah

Oh, right Well, whatever suits you, I guess

Haha I tried to google her and didn't find anything. She's keeping a low profile, it seems...

You have a blackish world, it seems I'm just fine, although I'm shocked that I played the guitar only 2 hours today Or wait, is it supposed to be the normal playing time for each day?

YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT MUSE'S LIVE PERFORMANCES?!? Morgan could never do all that crazy stuff without his glorious CABASA

(^seriously though, what the duck...? )

Okay, what the heck? Such a short message and I still managed to use over 15 smileys...

Btw, what are your usual amp settings?

My plans are always great

Gooooooooooooooooooooood

It's this one girl. I don't even know her that much, but she's a friend of my ex-crush. I don't know if you can see it, but: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000414129990 I gotta admit, I don't believe that I've got even the slightest chance with her

Ah, the awkward moment when you realise your smiley failed...

So, how're things going in the Zeta World?

IT'S NOT A SHAKER, IT'S A CABASA!!!!!

(^don't ask...)

I would, but I'm just too lazy to do it. I'll just sit here and write something to you instead

Stop hoping and start realizing that you really are making good process

Oh, the irony...now I'm talking with my ex-crush about how to approach my new crush

Maybe, maybe not I don't really see myself as a talented guitarist

Freddie...:cry:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!11!!!!!11!!!!11!!11!111!!!11111 /caps

Yeah

I'm in love with my amp again It gave me so much good tones today

BUT MY STUPID D STRING RUINS IT ALL BY SOUNDING LIFELESS AND MUFFLED I really need to change it...

Yeah!

Well, you're making good process, I think?

Yeah... I told my ex-crush that I had a crush on her, and of course it was awkward for a while (because she obviously didn't feel the same way), but now our friendship's better than ever

Yeah, I've been playing since 2009...though I can't remember when exactly.

Yeah, Queen is just amazing

OH NOES! WHO'S GONNA WRITE THE NEXT ALBUM NOW?

Bloody tired...Off to sleep now

Maybe, maybe not...

Yeah, I need to do that too...I'm just too lazy to do it

Great!

Oh well, today I turned my amp on...and everything sounded amazing!!!

...

I know the feeling...but if you truly are good friends, your friendship will be just fine, no matter what happens I know this from experience.

(I can't )

Damn, you've been playing longer than me...

Hmm...well, my current top 10 seems to be something like this: Muse, Radiohead, Queen, Death Cab For Cutie, The White Stripes, Placebo, Coldplay, Porcupine Tree, U2 and Elbow.

Well, I'll do the same. I'll list my favourite songs from each band above.

Muse=Citizen Erased

Radiohead=Karma Police

Queen=One Vision

Death Cab For Cutie=Transatlanticism

The White Stripes=Seven Nation Army

Placebo=Without You I'm Nothing

Coldplay=42

Porcupine Tree=Blackest Eyes

U2=Where The Streets Have No Name

Elbow=The Birds

Usually I just play guitar or go to the computer.

OH SHIT!!! A ZETA! MATT, COME HERE, QUICK!!!

I've been feeling much better now. Of course I'm still slightly depressed, but not that much at the moment.

Yeah, .52 sounds great on the 6th string

Oh, cool I was with my former crush last sunday and we had fun

I so want to kill my guitar and amp now I can't seem to get any decent sounds out of the amp anymore. Maybe it's just me, though. Still, it's bothering me. Today I spent almost 3 hours trying to tweak my amp settings. Oh well, maybe tomorrow I'll turn my amp on and everything will sound great. Who knows?

Off to sleep now, I'm bloody tired...

BUT

ONE FINAL QUESTION

*drum roll*

How are you? (very original, I know...)

BUT

STILL MORE QUESTIONS

*drum roll* (again? )

How long have you been playing guitar?

What are your favourite bands?

What are your favourite songs?

What do you usually do at home?

Are you alive or are you a ghost, roaming this universe while desperately trying to move on? ()

Or are you a Zeta?

Lots of questions, eh? I was bored...

Yeah

You know, you're not the first one to ask that question...but no, nothing has happened. Sometimes depression can come without any reason.

Okay, done Tomorrow I'll put a .52 string on the low E too

That sounds good, at least you have something in common And generally musers are good and nice people I'm sure it'll go great, have fun!

Yeah, I will. I'll probably spent the whole weekend with my guitar, feels like I haven't played it in ages

Oh, we mostly visited some museums, a castle, a crisp factory and some other places too, and then we also went wall climbing and did some other random stuff

Yep, although this wasn't an ordinary thing that happened. I had some kind of panic attack, hyperventilation and stuff, and later on they also diagnosed that I have serious depression

Yeah, guess I really should...

Love is in the air, eh? Have fun

Nah, I think I'll just take it easy for a while now. Don't want to risk anything.

Hello again! Sorry I haven't replied in ages, I was at Åland Islands with my school class

It was a great trip all the way, I even got to visit the hospital during the last night there

I want to play the guitar now, but my A string is still snapped and I'm too lazy to restring it

Wait, I got it! Maybe if I just remove the "96" and be just Mkekko?

So...how're you doing?

Haha, and I still couldn't sell it (I wish I could, though...I'd like to have 650 euros )

Yeah

Ah, shucks, my A string snapped... Oh, sorry It's a video game, one of my long-time favourites (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncharted_2:_Among_Thieves) And sorry, I meant to say Uncharted 2, not 3

Okay, maybe I'll just keep this old username...

That's awesome! I have to watch it sometime.

Oh, wait, it's actually only worth 650 euros...

I'm 95% okay now :yay:

I've been playing guitar a lot (as always) And I've been playing Uncharted 3 on for the first time in 2 months It's much better than I remembered

Isurvivedthebarrier Or maybe...READINGMUSE

Damn, I'm really bad at this...

There is a fan DVD for Wembley too?

It's easily worth 800 euros...

I've been mostly playing guitar I know I shouldn't because I'm sick, but I just can't help myself I'm actually feeling a bit better now

What've you been doing?

I really need to change my username sometime...I just never come up with any good usernames. Got any ideas?

Wow, I went there and I gotta say, that Darkshines video looked amazing! Can't wait for the whole DVD

Oh, I'm just waiting for them to forget about it, and then I can sell it for lots of money

I WANT TO RULE THE WORLD!! And no, it doesn't count, because I have a keyboard too and it isn't anywhere near a real piano

And who would've known, it actually worked!

I never go there...

I hope so too

Because it isn't really mine... It actually belongs to the family of my brother's girlfriend. They just gave it to me because they never play it themselves. I actually found out that it's a fairly expensive bass, but I can't just sell it. Who knows if they want it back someday?

I want a new guitar, a new amp, and lots of new effects and oh, I want a piano too

It's a weird street Each one of the shops sells it's own things. Like the one I bought the pedal from sold ONLY effect pedals. And then there was a shop that sold ONLY second-hand guitars, and so on...

What? I didn't know that!

Damn damn damn damn, still sick and were supposed to leave on monday

I can't sell it

I don't really know... But I gotta say, my amp sounds awesome I'm officially a fan of Blackstar amps now. Might get the Blackstar Series 1 S1-200 some day

Denmark Street. It was somewhere fairly close to the Buckingham Palace.

Yeah, BBC really angered all Muse fans now... But it's really a shame, I was hoping that when I'd return home, I'd see all these amazing proshots of Darkshines, Space Dementia, Hyper Music (<- especially this, since I couldn't focus on the song because of all the moshing and shouting and stuff ), Megalomania and Micro Cuts (<- especially this, too, because I never heard Matt's singing properly )

I'm still sick This is really frustrating now, our school class is going to Åland Islands for a week next monday, and I really hope I don't have to spend the whole week there in bed...

I have a bass guitar too But it's rusty, plays awfully, and it's way too big for me So I kinda gave up on it

I actually got so frustrated with my awful fuzz tones that I removed the FF from my signal chain I don't really know what to do with it, imo even PiB sounds better using just my amp distortion (and an EQ pedal for the main riff)

Perhaps I should try using the FF with a little crunch. if I remember correctly, Matt uses the FF with a bit of crunch too.

And oh, I finally got the EQ pedal I was looking for! It's the MXR 6 Band EQ, the same one that Matt has Bought it from a music store in London. There actually was an entire street filled with only music stores there

Great At least one of us is Feeling Good ()

My mind is still unable to accept the fact that I've actually been in Reading and seen the entire OoS live... Damn...I really was there (yeah, I know, I'm acting quite childlishly...)

Bad news:

I've been sick for 3 days now. I got massive headache and my throat tries to kill me every now and then. This isn't fun

Good news:

I finally got the sound in my head from my guitar amp Now I'm 95% happy with my guitar tone. The only downside is that I've still been unable to find the perfect fuzz tone from my Fuzz Factory. And all my effects suck, I really need to buy a better multi-effect...

Random news: (huh? )

So anyway...how are you doing?

kappas, miten en ookaan huomannut aikaisemmin että oot suomalainen?

Anyway...Heei (ei, en matki Aduuu-:ta )

Well, it was kind of hard to enjoy some songs because the crowd was so rough, but I managed I almost fainted twice because of dehydration

It's a shame BBC didn't broadcast all songs...

(You didn't listen to my clips, did you? Please say you didn't...)

Reading was awesome!!! :awesome::dance:

Although I was almost at the barrier the whole time, so I had a pretty rough time But whatever, it was still awesome

The quality sucks, all the low end got lost during the recording, and my playing sucks, but anyway...

HOLY FUCKING GLITTERATI I'M GOING TO LONDON TOMORROW!! :eek::awesome:

Isn't that the same with every band? The ones you hear on the radio are always the worst

I would settle for any Bellamy Signature Guitar

I made some quick guitar playing recordings today for my friends who can't hear me playing live

I can imagine Just three more days, and I'm going to London

Well, Muse has quite a lot of pop/rock-songs, so that's half pop And then of course there is GL, SMBH, NSC, IBTY and UD

007 would be cool or Keytar

I suppose Casinocaster would be quite awesome to have, but in the end, the other neck would just get in the way 90% of the time

Yeah, I think I'll just order one from Thomann. I'd really like to avoid that though, because I have bad experiences about their customer service.

Oh, cool. You've seen the world quite a bit too, then.
