How to turn music into the meaning of life?

We're having a big conversation about life and music. What are we going to do to enjoy the music? It's like a cornerstone for musicians. When you picked up your profession already. You have to learn a lot of stuff, you have to create new things and you should enjoy this. Because if you won't like it, if you will do this with anger and impatience you will destroy everything.
Sometimes it is hard enough to be brave because everybody tells you that you are doing a bunch of crap. Everybody wants you to do some common things. They want you to work on the factory or in the office, to do regular job, to make your world grey.

The only way to fight with it is to find hidden forces in your soul. You should be strong in your solutions. You should train your willpower. You have to understand that you really need it, you want it and you can't live without it. It's like in the childhood when a little girl decides to be a princess. She doesn't care that she can't be a princess. She doesn't care that she hasn't a castle. She's taking all her stuff and turns it to the fairy-tale. All of us have this little girl inside. The only thing you need is to release her and let her do everything.

Das wilde Leben

Well we'd been in a quite time of living. Two of us (Zoe and Alex) have to pass their exams in the university. So they have to study all the time. It is not good feeling when you HAVE TO do something you don't even need to. It is a kind of obligation in front of your parents, your spent time and money, your teachers... You are doing a lot of work thinking that you want to do something else. But you are not doing it because you're still thinking about your obligations. It is a kind of a circle. And you want to break this circle. To fight. To live with your dream. To be free. To live like Uschi Obermaier for example. "Das wilde Leben" is a film we watched yesterday. Wild life. Uschi was a German model who escaped from her parents house to live in the Kommune 1, to party with Rolling Stones, to see the whole world.
We watched this great movie because of the Rolling Stones at first place. But we were surprised that it is a cool rebel movie. (And you know between us girls actress in this film has an exellent breast. The most incredible part is that she shows it a lot of times)))))

VIP-concert

Well it's been a long time since we've posted something. =) There are a lot of things happened in our life. We took the second place in the "Subways competition". That gave us 6 tickets in the VIP-lodge. We brought our friends Ann and Boris with us. The way to Ekaterinburg took about 2 hours of fun and listening a lot of different music. The concert place looked like a warehouse from the outside. Inside was better but there's no space for the large groups of people. There were like 100-150 people.
The concert was great. Fun, punk and rock'n'roll. We've got a lot of experience. Somewhere in our souls we finally realised that we want to be on stage, not on the floor. We want to rock all the places.


Here some photos from the event)))

 

The easiest way to live

What is the most popular question ever? - How to become a happy person? Unfortunately more than 80% of population don't do anything to reach it. The answer is that you have to just do. Like "Yes Man" you just have to say "OK" and do it. It is easier than it looks. Why do I keep talking about it? Because that is the main thing I realised from the last week. It was like: "Oh my, I did it for myself and it tooks only one week?" Before the last week I thought that it would take a month. And then the one big thought appeared in my mind. What if I will do the same things with the same speed for the whole time? I'll can do everything I want. And, you know, it is the great feeling. Like a fly or swimming.
     In case of this wave I went to the university (finally))) and passed the exam with the B-mark. I was so frightened about it. But I DID it and everything went good.
     If every single person would do everything they need right at time there will be a lot of Bill Gates everywhere. I checked that I can do much more. The only thing I needed is not to think but do. If only I would remember about it all the time))) Maybe it is a right time to do an experiment? I'll try to DO for the whole next week. Next monday I'll check my progress. 

Competition

For the last two days we did a great job. We finally recorded the Rock'n'Roll video. It was so cool and cold. We were recording the first part in the appartment. But there were no place for jumping and dancing. So we had to hold the camera in turn. Then we took all our stuff to the street. Right on the snow. It was really cold but fun. It was pretty strange to party on the cold street without the music. =))) Thanks God nobody got cold. Well today we will ask all our friends to put "I like" under the video. Also we posted it on YouTube. So everyone can watch it. Hope you like it.

One more news but not so important is that we were on the party yesterday. We had a lot of fun. Smoking a hookah, drinking, playing games and singing. Alex was lucky enough to stay there for the whole night.

Pub Audition

Well yesterday we had an audition in James Butler Pub. We were waiting for 4 hours to play because there were no customers at 3 p.m. So we played 6 songs. Then manager told us that we have to learn more songs (more english pop songs and some russian songs). After that we will come to the second audition and then they "will be glad to cooperate" with us.

Today we were listening a lot of songs and finally picked up 24 foreign songs and 8 russian songs. It was so hard to pick up russian songs that all of us will like. I hope that we will learn them as soon as possible and will pass the second audition. I saw that they liked us but we are too "raw" for playing in the bar.

Anyway it was a big step toward our dream. We were playing in the bar in downtown and they liked us. I think we can do it.

Rock'n'Roll Queen

The big news for today is our rehearsal. There were cables everywhere. A LOT of cables. =))) And we are finally recorded the audio for the Rock'n'Roll Queen. It is almost done. Last thing to do is to record a guitar solo. So we are able to make a video. Hope we will make it on thursday.






And... we are going to play in James Butler Pub on wednesday at 3 p.m. We'll appreciate everybody to come and support us.

How I "bought" a laptop

Well. Mickey asked me to make our posts more informative. I have no idea how to  do this. Actually Mickey thinks that some abstract music information in our blog will make it more specific. Like: "Metallica's songs are using for tortures in Guantanamo" or "In 1982 when Ozzy Osbourne bit off bat's head he didn't know that it was a real bat. He thought that it was a toy". I don't know if it is appropriate to use such information in the blog which has to tell about The Muzzle of Bees. Probably we can make some kind of quiz: Do you want to read any facts about music life in a blog? Impartial witness can help us deside.

Anyway today we were cleaning up after the party. Then I went to Mike's job and had a photo with him because making a photo with customer is a part of his job. But all his customers disbanded before he asked them. So I pretended to be an owner of a new laptop. =)

And we had every week meeting. We were talking a lot. About everything. We invented video-clip for the Rock'n'Roll Queen. Tomorrow we will record the audio. For the rest of the week we will have a complete video-clip.

Poker-Party

We've had a great poker party tonight. The party started at 4 p.m. Two of our old school friends came in time. We've got a lot of Martini and juice. During the first round of poker Zoe went out first. After the second game there were 4 champions: Mickey, Zoe, Pavel and Ivan. But Mickey finally has won. Nobody doubted about this. Then we played "Mafia". That game also was fun. Everytime mafia-team was eliminated :).

This evening we were drinking, singing, playing and having a lot of fun. Right now we are trying to spread all the sleepwear we own among our guests.

Why didn't we have parties like that all the time? It is cool. =)))

Baby You Can Drive My Car

It was very quiet in appartment number 3 at 23:20. Corridor was buried in the dark. The only sound was a frige buzz. There was a cold wind in every single room because windows were closed not tightly. The boy with the curly hair was sitting in front of the bright screen of the computer. His name was Mickey. He was trying to write something. At that time good-looking girl was sitting in the kitchen in front of her laptop. Time was running so fast. Different sounds were penetrating through the window. Dog's barking. Screeching of tires in the snow. Sounds of night...

Suddenly the loud knock striked the front door. The boy turned his head aside the door. In a while the knock appeared again. The boy stood up and went to the door very cautiously. He stretched out his hand to the door handle and turned it... It was dark behind the door. All of a sudden the big hand grabbed the door and pulled it. Then tall man went in the corridor. He was wearing the yellow coat, tall black hat and misted glasses.The name of the night visitor was Mike. He wanted to have lodging for the night. He greeted Mickey and went to the kitchen. The girl looked up at him. They knew each other.

Mike asked the girl: "What are you doing?". She answered: "I'm trying to write the post to our blog. "

P.S. Well that's a kind of story I made instead of post. In fact we were practising all day. And we had a rehearsal for the new song "Baby you can drive my car".

P.P.S. Probably we will have a concert in the James Butler Pub on thursday.
