How to Tour in a Band or Whatever


  1. Don’t Complain. Bitching, moaning, whining is tour cancer. If something is wrong fix it or shut the fuck up you fucking dick. goddamn.
  2. If you fart, claim it.
  3. Don’t Lose shit. Everybody loses shit. Don’t fucking do it. Asshole.
  4. Don’t fuck anyone in the band. There are tons of people to fuck who are not in this band. Dumbass.
  5. If you feel like shit all the time, drink less beer at the gig. You will play better & feel better. What are you… a child? Some have the endurance for self abuse. Most don’t.
  6. Remember the soundman’s name. He will do a better job.
  7. Eat oranges. Cures constipation & prevents colds.
  8. Masturbate. Duh… Where & when? Be creative. You’re an artist right?
  9. If YOU can’t carry your suitcase 3 blocks, it’s too goddamn big.
  10. Respect public space in the van. Don’t clutter, you Fuck.
  11. If you borrow something, return it. Not Fucked Up.
  12. Do not let the promoter dick you or talk you out of the guarantee. If there were not enuf people there, it’s their fault.
  13. Driver picks the music.
  14. One navigator only (usually sitting shotgun). Everyone else shut the fuck up.
  15. Soundcheck is for checking sounds. Shut the fuck up while everyone else is checking.
  16. Don’t wander off. Let someone know where you are.
  17. Clean up after yourself. What are you… a goddamn toddler?
  18. Touring makes everyone bi-polar. Ride the waves as best you can and remember, moods pass. So don’t make any snap decisions or declarations when you are drunk or insane.
  19. Fast food is Poison.
  20. The guestlist is for friends, family & people you might want to fuck. Everyone else can pay. They have day jobs.
  21. Don’t evaluate your whole life while you’re sitting in a janitor closet waiting to go on. You think you’re above having shitty days at work? Shut up & do your goddamn job. 
This list was written under the influence of lots of painkiller & anti-depressants while on tour w/ such a great bands. I hope this list will help you get along w/ your co-workers whatever your job is. Contributions to the contributed crowds and some other folks.
Thanks for not being an asshole, bye 
So fucking amazing. This is now officially my bible.

A Glimpse from the Past

have you ever felt two mutually opposite thought argues?
thats what happen to me, fist I thing I thought, I've got a disorder,
yes, bipolar disorder, but soon I find out, it's not.
and yet it happen when I overthink of you
well this is the story

Sid Vicious       :  How could you get a girl like her? did you trick her?

Choa Margera   :  No, it wasn't, I just loved her

Sid Vicious       :  Well damn you lucky-kid

Choa Margera   :  No, it isn't lucky, it's what I fight for, wrong again bub

Sid Vicious       :  so, how's that worked? you even didn't outsmart her? what are you

Choa Margera   :  maybe things will worked out with a word happy

Sid Vicious       :  by the word happy, that's you mean?

Choa Margera   :  yea, she feel comfort, and to let her sadness end, and make her laugh

Sid Vicious       :  so you comes up with jokes and those funny things?

Choa Margera   :  yup, some thing like that I guess

Sid Vicious       :  maybe you're right, happiness is a good thing to carry on

Choa Margera   :  no, happiness's just a state of mind, i'm afraid she just hide her bad feeling on me

Sid Vicious       :  no, I see you, she's kind, nice girl, she's understand you

Choa Margera   :  I know that she's shame on me, I'm not the smartest kid in the class, unpopular,  teacher fugitive, maybe she hate me even when we were together

Sid Vicious       :  she understand about your habits, and she doesn't care, besides you really make her happy, you make her laugh

Choa Margera   :  well, what if one day she's stop laughing?

Sid Vicious       :  ...

Choa Margera   :  what if one day she gets bored with me on everything?

Sid Vicious       :  ...

Choa Margera   :  I just, don't want to hurt her heart

Sid Vicious       :  maybe it's just you don't wanna get hurt (?)

Choa Margera   :  both i guess..

Maybe This Place Is The Same and We're Just Changing

Yo!
this already 2015
it's been a long time eh?
let's get started, I'm gonna tell a tall tale of me (susah ya bacanya? hahaha)

here we go,
I can't promise ya'll it isn't about love again, yet it still
well I admit it, some of my project actually based on her, one year ago,
the time when I started to built myself again after "things that doesn't work supposed to be"
yeah I'm a sob, Emo? what ever you called it, dude, cry isn't always for baby :P
but when I started thinkin' "If I haven't met her in those days would this gonna happened to me?"
another quote from Pierce The Veil
"My love for you was bulletproof but you're the one who shot me"
hahaha
well I still had a lot of time to regret.

after I started to join Poky Foxy, We've done a lot of gigs, met a new great people, we had a best time,
but somehow the story between us, there's something can't be hold up, so...
nah, I'm not gonna tell about this, I'm not gonna let this leak..
after all we've got a lots of really good-great time,
The girl who broke me up for the last time made me down this project seriously, I dunno why, It feels like I can told her in a proper way, so I make it sublime, still got her in this Poky Foxy lyric.
long story short, we still making a new single, and guess what, maybe I'm doing some vocal!
yep clean vocal, like what I did before on Non-Sense, btw this is the point

let's talk about Non-Sense
it's a band project that I've started to get an attention from a girl who left me before the last girl (yah kebahas lagi nih) hahaha
let's just say it's a prove-able project
3 years with them, and yes I resign because we just got separated by the surface.
we're spread off from the neighbourhood (mereka keluar negri, mereka semua)
I'm the only one who still stay in this country, poor me huh?


Long story short, they (Non-Sense) still continued their project without me
until someday, they e-mail me to fill in in their tour, that's great!
so we've made a deal, and "can't promote" is part of the deal, that's why I can't spread Poky Foxy
and I'm just playing with them in this country, they doing a south asian tour
we caught up in the end of the year, and doing some brutal cool again
about that time, Poky Foxy just got the show after new year, then I made a tour for myself
I called it "Hunting Party Tour"
why? because I'm doing my part and it's like searching a party and play through it hahaha





but somehow there's something that bother me, I'm visiting a lot of place,
like a place where we first meet, my place when we used to hang, band camp, everything seems like change a bit, it lost another tone, a memory flashing when I visited a place where we used to be, just like when I'm broken and rotting in my hometown, then I found a last thing that you gave to me before you leave.





"Munchkin, stay in tune with your surrounding, stay calm" she wrote a note to remind me that the universe doesn't revolve around me. I was an angry kid growing up, hated everything and didn't get along well. this girl change me a lot and she was the one who got me the idea to start a Non-Sense, if you're reading this, I just wanna say thank you. at least I'm not as sad as I used to be right now :)) (tersimpan dalam box mesin waktu, hahaha)


quit it for awhile, let's talk about the tour (ngeles)
we're played hard in that tour, I'm doing a lot of stage dive and some sing-a-long thingy
really nice huh? hahaha
that tour makes me think that, this year is awesome!




all we need is just a repeat!!!
soon asap!!!

let's make this tale end, and I'm still gonna write another tale about me,
about #hernamehere ,
about Careless Inc. ,
about Poky Foxy, The Side Project, etc.
just keep getting my feed on this blog or my other social media account, go search choamargera
hahaha
