I'd have a thinner face and that's all I really don't like at the moment. Oh and my nose is exactly the same as the noses in the plastic glasses, nose and moustache disguise.

Probably won't be on here for a whole FIVE DAYS. I'll miss you guys, or something. Alternatively I won't deal with teh real world and log on from some internet cafe instead of doing real things.

2: I see I'm not the only person here who'd like very much to able to make a living from their music. The chances are, I feel, somewhat limited, and I'm increasingly convinced I shall have to find a day job to pay the rent and make music by night.
3/Alt: I remain proud of my hair. It's growing back, gradually.

2) I would love to be a "rock star" but have zero musical talent or charisma
3) Those back, crack and sacks can be brutal

Partly because, since the '80s, the term "rock star" seems to have become synonymous with "dickhead."
There certainly seems to be an increasing disparity between the terms "rock/pop star" and "musician" these days. Perhaps I'm being too specific, but if I could pay the rent through work as a bass guitarist, I'd be a happy man.
Actually, right now, if I could pay the rent full stop, I'd be a happy man...

we just happen to also be a band. I'm not big on travelling anyway, and having to rush from place to place wouldn't sit well with me.

the one I tour with is definitely not the one with my best mates in. I'd go with the band with whom I get on perfectly well, but who I wouldn't be expected to hang around with and entertain the whole time. I think I'd enjoy the travelling though - I've always thought it would be nice to see more of the world as long as I had an excuse* to do so.
*"Gap yah" not being a decent excuse in my opinion.

Aside from which, most of the universities I went round actively discouraged people from taking a year out between finishing their A-levels and starting a science or maths degree.

How good are the travel opportunities involved in working for Gap anyway?

However good friends they might have been at the start, they'd often rather chuck it all in (still owing the record company a lot of money) than go out in a van with that bunch of cunts for another 6 months.

My favourite band of all time, torn asunder over the piddling matter of every last one of them being an oddball at best and an insufferable cunt at worst

Then touring is the only way to make it pay. Why do you think shit bands from the 90s keep plugging away at greatest hits tours?

which is why I don't expect to ever make a living from music
seems pretty difficult even if you are good and touring.
