fauxmo

i realize my posts have been brief recently, but it's only because i'm storing up creative energy for a new project. i have decided to abandon the play in pursuit of something far more promising: a new genre of music. fauxmo, to be precise.

i owe co-founding credit to sal, to whom i owe co-founding credit for most amusing things in my life. inspiration was drawn from the following conversation:

s: it's life -- i think life is a mess.
j: that is so true.
s: but sometimes a fun mess.
j: life is a big mess.
s: man, that sounded so emo and depressing.
j: yes. i have a SOUL. and you have to KNOW ABOUT IT. because i am so EMOTIONAL. we should write a song.
s: an emo song?
j: a...fauxmo?
s: that's a thought.
j: man, i think this could be a whole new genre.
s: we could revolutionize the music industry...or just make it that much more crowded.
j: no, dude, viva la revolucion!!!! what would zapata have done? i think he would have fauxmoed.

goal: to write highly entertaining fake emo songs. i will be attempting in the upcoming weeks. impending finals should provide some healthy (or at least thought-provoking) inspiration.

VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!!!!!!
