What the hell, right? It’s been, like, almost eight months. Or something.
This site is on the back burner right now. I’m slooooooooowly moving the reviews and “scene” page links to earnityourself.com. If you haven’t joined yet, do it. NOW!
I’m going to turn this site into a place for music (made by me, my friends, and/or bands I like), art (made by me and/or my friends), clothing & jewelry (made by me and/or my friends), blogs (made by me and/or my friends), links, suggested reading, random thoughts, etc., blah blah blah.
I’m actually pretty excited about it.

A little self-promotion, along with some actual news!
I released an EP and I put it online for you to download, for free. The name of the two-person collaboration project/band is GARDENING, NOT ARCHITECTURE and here are our websites:
In SS.COM/EIY.COM-related news, the time is swiftly approaching when everything on sarahsaturday.com is going to be moved to the brand new earnityourself.com, which has turned out to be the mother of all band-and-music resource websites. So go check that shit out, yo!
And last but not least, a thought of the day:
Verum et factum convertuntur: The true and the made are interchangeable. One can know with certainty only what he have created himself.

An Example of the Antithesis…
I get these kinds of emails all the time from clueless, hopeless kids in bands. It makes me so sad. There is no hope for them. So all I can do is use them to illustrate all the things that the EIY philosophy is NOT…
Note: This is not intended to offend the person who wrote me this email. He is honestly clueless, and he truly believes these things about himself. They say that ignorance is bliss, and to that I say, “AMEN!” — and this is why:
“Hi this is xxxxx….you remember me from [insert unknown band’s name] probably…but i play in [insert another unknown band’s name] now…of course im the drummer….I was wondering if you would like to work, help, or book tours for a.s.g.r comming up this year like asap our link is: (www.myspace.com/xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) or even buy us on a tour this year comming up…we can pay upfront if we have to for a tour package and we would like to play WARPED TOUR on a smaller stage the whole tour….sarah…we will pay or whatever….its god damn rediculous….u can manage us or whatever…we will own the metal and hardcore scene at the end of this year….im working with [insert name of some guy who is popular on myspace for dressing in drag] and everything this summer hopefully if i have time and were going for the stars…this is my spill to you for real….ill do anything possible sweetheart…were going to blow up in 2007 with whoever we work with bc of our work ethic and motley crue-ish attitudes…we party like mother fuckers and still get our shit done….you can come out with us on warped as well if you can hook it up…..i just took it upon myself to write you because you are always a sweetheart to me and this band was formed from big ass bands and i think you could help us out and have a huge part in it and help your self out too!. ….we have a new van and trailer…we are tour ready and about to start blowing up…our past bands inclue: [insert long list of unknown bands’ names]…we have been playing music forever….we have the final line-up and were wanting to see if the besttt womannnn in the worldddd was interested in working with our family. press kits available upon request. thanks so much. sarah…. lets fucking party!!!!

Thought of the Day: If you can’t take criticism, you’re fucked.
I’m from the Morgue crew our cd is just “The Morgue” and I did a google
search and found your lame ass review. It’s funny that you put “borrow from
me” in your review. Thanks a lot thats really cool. It seems like your
really helping underground musicians out a lot by putting shit like that. So
anyway, you can take your review down now, cause we are especially white and
like star wars too much to give a shit about your opinion, go listen to
Jay-Z and Fifty cent you dumb bitch.”
If you haven’t seen it yet, make sure you do. It is important because it clearly defines the rise and fall of the hardcore / punk movement. Notice that I said and the fall.
Finish this sentence: “When I grow up, I want to be _________.”

Discover new music!
In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been featuring new songs on the E.I.Y. Myspace profile on a semi-regular basis. I just updated the player today with four new songs, and they’re pretty frickin’ sweet, dudes! You should listen, learn, and love…
Also check out the “Songs you missed!” blog post while you’re there.
And wish my mom a happy birthday!
