no- probably not.

if you are a musican then I can see it, but like Lemonphile said- unless you are in the music industry some way-what kind of job would you be doing?

Can I be Steve's personal assistant. or better yet Wardrode Mistress( this is an actual job a friend of ours had on the U2 tour years back).

Random Notes( about the quilt thing- I just caught your post)
I gave Raine some a few things for the baby(from buy buy baby) last year. It was a receiving blanket, a sweater/coat and little hats.When we saw Chantal last year a bunch of her fans gave her clothes for the baby..

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I actually decided that I wanted to work in the music industry through OLP's music. It wasn't like, "Hey, I like their music so I want to work in the industry," but talking with fans and such opened my eyes to it.

I'd work with Mike Turner or Raine.

I just really want to see inside Raine's head and what he's thinking.

April,

when I was younger I wanted to be a singer, I mean around 3-5 years old. I wasn't blessed with a voice so i then decided I wanted to work in the Music Industry somehow cause I love music with a passion. It is extremely hard to get into. I wanted to work on the promotions side- A&R, PR-stuff like that.. I took alot of courses in school to help with it. the biggest mistake I made was not doing any kind of internships when I was in college. Not only do they give you lot's of experience, but can help get your foot in the door. I gave up that dream about 10-15 years ago when I saw how things really went on. I still love music don't get me wrong and I love meeting Bands, seeing concerts etc, but my days of wanting to get into the industry are over. If I did anything now it would be a one on one thing with a band like a manager or something like that. I would never want to work at a record company now. Too mush red tape and BS to cut.

Good Luck to you. Don't give up your dream and talk to as many people as possible in the field you want. Funny thing is I meet so many people now who think I work in the industry cause I know alot of different types of music and the way I seem to get along with security, bands, crews at shows.

I just am a fan and love the music. I couldn't go a day without some form of music in my life. That would be to me like not breathing.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

"Don't Raine on my Parade" or something equally cheesy

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

hahaha it's been a REALLY long time since I've posted so... well I'm pretty much a stranger... but on the topic o this thread I'd probably go with Raine as well.. what with going from crimminology to music :S and all. Although Jeremy would most liekly have a quite humorous one!
Death gives meaning to our lives, it gives importance and value to time. Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.

I'd pick Jeremy. Because A) I'd need to convince him that he <i>needs</i> to start wearing his glasses to the MMVAS again.(Remember the Picture.). And Also, his Dad was from Scotland:).

i'd find out who's the least popular and write about him, because then i could write about why he's the least popular

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever
