....on a personal note....

Journal Entry: Fri Aug 22, 2008, 11:17 PM
WARNING: Proud Mother Bragging.

Have to be a bragging Mother now so humour me guys!

My son ~seveneves got his head on TV a couple of nights ago with his music partner James. They were interviewed and played a few songs from their new CD. The name of their group is 'Tall Order' and ~seveneves composed the music for this song uploaded onto Youtube, James wrote the lyrics.

~seveneves is the one playing the 12 string acoustic guitar. [link] to Youtube video which is just slightly out of sync.






....plus....

A few days ago now, I commented on ~Skull-X's Journal. He asked for his journal to be linked into all those who commented on his page...this is the first opportunity I had had to link...so linking I am. [link]

He offered to....

Comment on this journal and I will...
a) Tell you why I friended you
b) Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, et cetera
c) Tell you something I like about you
d) Tell you a memory I have of you
e) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you
f) In return, you must post this in your journal.


His reply to me...

a) Quite clearly, I friended you as you were the new PA top-dog and so it would be nice to get to know the person deciding my online fate. :p
b) That peacock feather that was in your old journal design - that just seemed to work so well with your image of wise yet eccentric.
c) Something I like about you - you're like pixel-online-mummy. :)
d) When you became well again and I was all 'Weeeeeeeeee'. :p
e) How'd you get into pixel art - since before the GD position, I had no idea of you! :o
f) :o



So now I would like to comment back on his comments!

(a)Awesome that an artist watches me back...I am the one mostly doing the watching. You guys are the Master's of your own fate...I am just the ' Proud Mother' who has the joy and pleasure of celebrating your wonderful work!
(b)Don't know about wise but eccentric you got me in one....I must add the feather to my Gallery one day!
(c)Aww thank you....'tis how I feel! (This is not meaning 'mummy' as in 'curse of the' folks!)
(d)Sniffs away a tear of emotion..
(e)For years I have been a major fan of *fool as a smilie artist and then he started to create his wonderful PixelArt, this just made me fall in love with PA...I used to comment to him on his web site and then `gas13 gave me some advice on creating PixelArt and told me about the forums. From then on I was haunting the Pixelation and PixelJoint forums...not commenting, just reading. Finally I was offered the role as GD...probably because of my enthusiasm for wanting to promote PA at dA.


PS. Congratulations to ~Skull-X for getting his first choice for University...well done!







...and finally...

The Judges are now going through the Nursery Rhyme Competition entries and making their decisions. The winners will be announced in due course.

As the son of a mother who likes to brag, I know exactly what your feeling. If you reeeeeally want to embaress him, get tapes of it and mail them to allll your relatives. Or throw a party and put them in gift bags. Personally I havent had either done to me... and I am quite happy with that.

Hey Shone!!! I read your journal here and had to view the video.

Now coming from a musical background myself [singer], I have to critique. I hope it's alright with you, and in fact it has nothing to do with your son, it's the singer.
While he has a nice voice, it doesn't sound like he's had a lot of training. And it's mostly the nasal issue. If he works on that, then man will they be fantastic!

I do however really LOVE the guitars melody. It's so beautiful. And they should post more videos of them performing their songs. But on a better scale. Get a mic in there or something.

But truly Shone, they sound really good and I hope they go far in the business. :D
