January 14, 2001 Korey slept over last night. We practiced a little at night then started this page. We went to sleep. Then to get up and eat then sleep again till six. Then he went home. So basically we got nothing done. We have 4 songs right now. 2 of them witch we can actually play through semi-good. Yeah we need more practice. Once we get the other 2 down we will be writing some new songs. Yippy skippy. We tried to record some stuff on a tape but the sound quality kinda sucks. Maybe we should sell it anyways. Someway we are going to record on the computer then make cds. Which no one will buy.
January 18, 2001 We haven't had a practice in a while, well not that long but it feels long. We might practice a little tonight. I have midterm, makes me tired, atleast I have half days. Nothing has really been going on, I just wanted to update you if you really even care.
January 19, 2001 Okay today sucked, i got locked out while it was raining. I had to go to the bathroom pretty bad too, but thats beside the point. Mid-terms are over now more practices and more songs. We will be practicing tonight working on 2 songs we already have and probably making a new one. Probably practicing on saturday and sunday again. It will give us a chance to catch up. Thats all for now.
February 5, 2001 Hello, sorry I haven't updated in a while. I skipped school and went to mars music in maryland and spent the whole day. Its a big ass music store with a whole bunch of musicy stuff. We spent like 5 hours there. I bought a mixer for like 150$(waste of money), I think its a piece of junk. Headphones in a little boom box sound better. So that was a huge waste of time. I think we basically got down our songs we do have down(due to a shitty drummer, shhhhhh dont tell him). Lately I have been planning to eat spaghettios with meatballs and I haven't gotten a chance its pissing me off. Geocities was shut down for a little bit I don't know why but what the hell. No one probably tryed to get on anyways. I think the homepage backround is messed up. I donno what happened there. Thats all for now. Oh yeah I'll be putting song lyrics in the songs section then when I feel like it. Oh yeah(sorry), we got over 100 people on the site yippy kai yay. Thanks to people who have time to waste I owe it all to you.
February 19, 2001 Hi again. We put some webcam pics up. It may take a while to load up but i know you'll wait. Yeah korey dropped my bass. I look back at him and all of a sudden it falls and makes a big noise. I dont think it is damaged to much. I ate the spaghettios!! Im so proud of myself. Korey came up with a song and we are helping him write it called "Schools not for me". Its about how he sucks in school and always fails because he is a dumbass. Then we have 4 other song ideas that are yet to be made. When korey finnally gets those pictures developed ill have to scan them. Damn that reminds me. I was going pooh-pooh and korey unlocks the door and takes a picture. I think i will put it up for your enjoyment. Thats all for now.
February 20, 2001 YO!! wtf this is bullshit. I found out there are alot of other bands named stryknine so we have to change it. I wouldnt want to look unoriginal. Well thats all for now. Jesus Christ this sucks.
March 5, 2001 Okay Sorry I haven't updated in a long time. We changed our name now. There were just too many bands with the name stryknine or somthing like it. So now we are orignal sort of (jenn) teheheh. Well anyways good news we finally got out of our slump that we were never in, and wrote like 3 new songs. None of them are finished yet. They are called "changed" "schools not for me"(korey) "confused". Yeah i know its stupid. Well anyways i think they are pretty good. When koreys dad gets out of the big house(shhh dont tell anyone) he might buy us like a stack or somthing that we need desperately. I seen a show at hiesters on friday and my ears were ringing afterwards. I dont think we are even close to that loud and we even play in the small basement. So thats all for now.
March 12, 2001 Hi I haven't really updated much. I think im actually going to put lyrics up though. So look at them then. It would also be neato if i could put a guest book up or a message board. Hell yeah. Anyways, today we recorded 6 songs!! Coolness, i don't know if we will be selling it, I know I know, dont cry...i promise you can hear our music sometime. My bro said alot of people are asking for demos. IF we do sell them it would be at a really low price like 2$ or somthing. Maybe 1.50$ OH SHIT!! discount city!! also we wrote a new song called "fuck you" its pretty fat bass part. Brian wrote most of the lyrics and i sing it. Well anyways check out the lyrics section i put the songs in there.
April 4, 2001 Well its been almost a month sorry, i know how you love the website and all and how you hope for updates and you have dreams about it, but i've been busy lately. uh........actually i just didnt feel like it, i dont really have a life so im never busy. Oh yeah i just want to say Fuck you!!! to maria, amber, and the one kid that signed my guestbook saying i judge people. Maria and amber tell me i have down syndrome and they call korey fat and says he looks like a girl, so fuck them! They are these two girls from wilson and they make fun of people to get there self of esteem higher, they are stuck up (a little sidenote for the kid on the guestbook, okay im not judging them okay.....they really are and if you talked to them you would know) well anyways, seriously i think we made like 3 or 4 songs since last time i updated. I dont know the last song i told you guys about. I think it puts us up to like 12 songs. We might cut some cuz this one song i dont know about. they are not completely finished but its alright. they suck anyways. oh yeah!!! we are not stryk nine anymore damnit!!! reh! !!!!uoy evol i nnej. There is a link in the links section it is eddy aitkens clan for half-life check it out please. They have us linked too!
April 10, 2001 This is Bryan and Something really fucking shitty happened fucking korey dammit he is doing really bad in school and shit and his gpa is 1.0 and his mom is pissed so she fucking took his guitar away untill she sees an improvement and the only way she can see that is at the end of the fucking school year so he cant play with us anymore without his guitar so since we are so dedicated we asked some kid to borrow his guitar and i think it might work but if it doesnt that is going to fuck us up so bad you cant even imagine.
April 11, 2001 Okay my brother updated last, i didnt tell him he could but he did anyways. well anyways good news! Haley from punk rock prom might let us be on her zine, we have to give her a demo though. She will prolly be like "oh its good....." just to make us feel better. I went on an advertising campaigne for the site, if you want to call it that. I just went on 3 sites. Well one kid shawn from chaotic punx dist. said we basically suck, but The afterglows, hiester lotz(hottest man ever) he said he might be able to hook us up with shows, and haley said that too about the demo. So all is good, except for kories ass being grounded but that shouldnt last that long. Its weird were actually moving along. 4 new songs coming up, that should put the count to 12 i dont know if we should have that many so we might cut some of our worse songs out. Okay thats all for now.
April 13, 2001 Thank you to everyone that is helping us get some shows, so we can finally get our asses moving. Well last night was fun. I almost got arrested. So you want to hear the story? i think you do. Alright i was sleeping over at my friends house. My mom was on the computer downstairs. Since his house it right up the street we came down and knocked on the windows and shit. Once at 1 and the other time at 3. It started to scare the shit out of my mom and she called the cops (pigs). So we ran our asses of to his house and cooked some chicken nuggets. We sat there for a while then somone rings the doorbell, low and behold its my mom and a damn cop. The first thing he does is look at my feet to see if they are wet, which they were, since it was really wet and foggy. He asked if i played a trick on my mom and i said "yeah". If i didnt he would of taken me in wtf!! The fucking bastard was shining his light in my eyes and telling me to stop smiling. He said next time hes going to arrest me, and i think about it and what could he arrest me for? I donno. But that was a fun night. Well everythings alright now i think we are starting to get korie back involved he snuck down and and he just played my old bass. It works i guess, we just need to keep practicing for any hope of not sucking ass when we get shows. Thats all for now....
May 12, 2001 Hey guys, sorry i haven't updated in 2 months. oh shitznit! Well anyways alot of things have gone on. We may possibly get a show soon in july. Thats a big maybe though so im not getting my hopes up. I talked to hiester lotz of the afterglows(check out their site in the links section) and my band members and i (good grammar eh?) went to his house to play. We gave him a demo , and he said he liked it. It was really loud, and it just shows how shitty our equipment is. We can borrow his though. He is a really cool guy, i have alot to thank him for, he helped us alot. So i gave him my demo, and hopefully he will give it to frank phobia( runs the shows at hiesters) and we can book a show!!! Its really happening! Well anyways, he said our style is pop-punk mixed with street punk. I dont like the pop-punk part but i can live with it i guess, cuz im not going to change my style. Well thats all for now. Check back for shows(seriously this time)
May 22, 2001 hi, my name is jenn smoot and i'm not in the band. bryan told me to tell you about their "show" at Penn Ave Music. it all started out when we got to Penn Ave & there was an old guy playin a lap steel (as bryan calls it) & it sounded all hawaiian and the only person that liked it was his wife who was tappin her foot. mike bought an amp head, then they got to play. the guitar was quiet & the bass was muffled & bryan's arm had a boo boo so he skipped parts. they had to bleep out words, so fuck drugs = forget drugs. o yea, the mic cut out too. but everything else went koo. there was this one lady in the crowd that really liked them. bryan wants me to tell you he bought new sticks and a crash cymbal. woo!
May 23, 2001 Yeah so we played at Penn Ave. Music's parking lot. We were pretty bad, well first off on my bitch list 1.Koreys guitar was too low 2.The mics kept cutting in and out. 3.Bryan messed up a few songs along with adding some new beats we never even heard. 4.My bass sounded all muffled 5.I was really nervous and got diarhea(thats what i get) and thats all i can think of. So yeah we have a show june 12. Fucking phatness, cept im really nervous now after the parking lot incident. Korey and Bryan are in the school talent show, i donno if they made it. We need to practice lots so we can get alot tighter. But now were fucked because Korey asked his teacher if she was a dike and got grounded again and we cant practice for our show. This is fucking horrible. Well thats enough of my bitching for one day. Go to the show peace nigga!
June 13, 2001 Hi so we played at hiesters lanes, We messed up a little but no one seemed to notice. Surprisingly people liked it........I think. After the show some guy from the scene magazine interviewed us and were gonna have an article in there if you want to check it out, in the July issue. We are most likely playing a show in august at hiesters. Possibly at a party for Rachel. I don't know if we have the equipment to play it though. All is good in the world of fmf. I think my mom might have taken some pictures, so hopefully we can put them up, we have some of us in the basement we can put up. Oh yeah, If anyone has the one voices Newspaper, That has us advertised in it, It would be greatly appreciated if somone would let me have it, because i dont get the newspaper. Thanks!!!!!!
July 24, 2001 Hi sorry i havent written in a while, Basically my old web thing i used started to be gay and it wouldnt work right. So i started using angelfire and jenn is taking over because she is good at html and stuff, i will still write journals and stuff, we have new pics to put up, and also we got our site linked up to some other local band sites and stuff, its cool so i guess we need to get some mp3's then people can hear us without hearing us live, what an idea! Maybe we should record, i need to ask hiester again. Well basically all is well, well the band got in a little word fight and slinging poopy at each other, but we are better now. I went to hershey park! it was fun, i forgot that roller coasters are the shiznit. Jenn is doing a really good job on the site, I love you! and keep up the good work.
August 9, 2001 Yes, Yes, we are in the process of recording a demo. Hiester Lots and Imix Shish are helping out. I think they taught us alot of things now, about being tighter, and making better transitions. Also Bryan is becoming a better drummer by the day. A few songs will be getting some changes. Because the first few, lets face it, we didn't change them since we made them waaaaaaay in the beginning. So I think they will become better, you may not. Also some other things on the home front, hehe, Um I don't know where people are hearing of our so called "band" but they are. Somone might help us book some shows in Philly and someone else called Korey from our "The Scene" magazine Interview. I thought it never came out. Well anyways more shows I guess, and with the making of the demo I'm sure we will play other places. Thats all for now.
August 24, 2001 Hi, yes we finally recorded our shrieking ugly sounds we like to call our demo. It took like 7 hours of grueling recording action. Not really grueling but ya know. Yeah so we put 5 songs on it. In order its, 1.Fuck You 2.Alarm Clock(new one yay!) 3.Screwed 4.Changed 5.Psycho Mom. Its still in some perfecting stages, By Imix, hes doing a great job. Thanks to The Afterglows for all their huge help. Yeah we have some upcoming shows at hiesters. Check it out in the shows section. They are some really good bands playing, I don't think we deserve to play, cuz we are not to good, on their level. Well I hope it turns out to be a good show, maybe the reason we are playing is cuz A.They need an opening band B.We have a small shining glimpse of goodness(if that makes sense), which hopefully is the case, okay I'll stop babling, Thanks for reading. Oh yeah, one more thing, We started making a new song, its cool, it might be played at the next show. And we will put up mp3's and possibly if you want us to send you a demo if you are out of the state of pa, email me Mike, and that would be cool if you could burn some and give em out. That may or may not be a good idea okay, I'm definitly done.
August 28, 2001 Okay, we are going back to school tommorow. Hopefully the year doesn't suck and it goes by quick. Hopefully I figure out what im doing in life. And hopefully my classes are good. Last year was cool with some sucky classes that drug it down. Hopefully it will be cool. Were sure to have more shows, and you should know about it more with us flyering it. Okay Check back for mp3's, buy our shit till we have enough for koreys head, and then we will give them out. Unless it gets really expensive. Donations are always welcome, and burn cds for other people. I'm encouraging it! Okay I'm out!!!! peace
hehe bye
October 27, 2001 Okay so we were having some difficulty with our guitar player Korey. He is not very dedicated to the band. 1) He shows up late 2)Disses the band on most ocassions 3)We need new equipment and hes been putting off buying it since the beginning of summer. I could go on and on. Basically hes just not dedicated enough to the band, he thinks this is all a big joke. We seriously want to do something with the band, and need serious members. I guess we've all had tensions with him. Maybe you dont understand because you would have to be in the position. So we might give him another chance, but hes really not seeming any better so we need to look around. If you are interested contact me or bryan. Anyways Jenn got a camera, so new pictures that you can actually see will be up. Then you'll be all hot and steamy over my sexy body. A show is coming up November 9th, so be there. Hmmm, oh yeah we wrote like 2-3 new songs. As of now they are called, "new song one" and "new song two" creative eh? They are good songs I think. Alot of our older music is poopie, ex "schools not for me" "mistake" way beginning stuff. I think you might see those songs in the dumpster soon. I dont know yet. We sold all out of demos, so sorry if you didnt get one. If you did then gladly burn them and give them out to people. Well thats all I really have to say, bye. P.S(hehe) I will be writing in this more and updating the site more.
December 24, 2001 sup guys this is bryan i know that we havent updated in a long damm time thats cuz were fat bastards who are lazy. anyways we finally got rid of korey and we got bobby(aka Sucky) i think we made a good choice in the matter. also we finally got the damm stickers so if you would like 1-100000000000000000000000000000000 of them see me in school or bobby you can talk to mike about them too we will both have them. there the same thing as the cd cover and they have our website on them so i think it will help to get our name out and about there vinyl and there pretty damm nice (we made a good buy) if you want to see about getting stickers made for yourself go to www.stickerguy.com. sorry we havent updated in a while but ill try to keep writing.
December 25, 2001 Sup guys, Sorry we havent updated in like months, well all in all, we got Bobbly Leary playing guitar now for korey, We just have to learn to play toghether a little better. I think it will prove to make us tighter in the long run. Anyways we got stickers now, they are nice, we got them off of Stickerguy.com, if anyone wants to check it out. I think we will sell them for 25 cents. We would sell it for less, but it would prove to just be more of a hassle. Alright well i'll post the lyrics to "song #2" and "cold shoulder" i think we have 2 songs in the making. We also upgraded alot of old songs. Its better now. Wahoo! Well what else, oh today is christmas. I just couldnt wait for santa to come, and when he finally did, i jumped in his lap. then he pulled down my pants and told me that it was our little secret. So I cant tell you what happened. Oh yeah one other thing is we will change the bios now, since they are rather old. Fool, you dont know me.
January 04, 2002 Sup jiggas, I'm getting better with the journals see. Well anyways Bobby leary is in the band now and I think its an improvement. We have a a few things to tighten up on because he is new yet, but I think it will turn out to be good for Fmf. Oh yeah we've been handing out stickers, we sold some and gave some out for free, but basically we have enough to buy more and now we are giving them out for free. We are pretty much almost out of them. I still have some left though. So ask me if you want one yet. Oh yeah and I think I'll put a limit of 1 per person for the free thing. People are asking for way to many and I can't be having that kna im sayin. Oh yeah we are in the process of writing 2 new songs, I think they are some hot tracks. We threw most the songs out that korey wrote any words to, or majority of things. I think we might get rid of warm up, schools not for me(definitely), screwed (most definitely,he wrote the whole thing for goodness sakes), and lastly mistake. But the new ones are coming along really good and I like them alot. Our music is definitely getting alot better. We also improved alot of old ones since you last saw us. So we are definitely better, oh yeah and I don't think we will mess up that much live anymore either. I don't want to be looked at as a little kid band that is good for their age anymore. I really don't know what else to say. I think we have a show in february, come back for updates. That is all.
