old crap:

happy new year super fans. i hope 07 treats you right. hope you finally find what you are looking for...that new job...someone to keep you warm at night...or maybe your life will still suck and you should get a helmet. how about you go list to THREE NEW SONGS on the media page...

Nothing quite like hanging out with the family, getting blind drunk and playing bad cover songs for the pseudo cousins when the old folks have gone to bed.To quote doctor cox: "have you ever seen a drunk baby?"That was me trying to play 'plowed' after a gallon of gin…o:p>

Its been way too long.Nose to the grindstone or head up my ass? I cant really figure out which.One thing is for sure-im getting restless.What is it going to take to get me moving?Maybe when im older, fatter, balder and less relevant.Maybe then-then ill get off my ass and make a record.Get a real band together again... actually accomplish something- anything.
Speaking of anything check out Say Anything.This guy writes music with the balls I am struggling to find.How can you go wrong with a holocaust love song? Go download it: Say Anything – alive with the glory of love.
let me know what you think. hit me back at myspace
4-12-06 so long and thanks for all the fish...
yes its just about that time folks. we've always been a bit geographically challenged and its finally gotten the best of us. we can no longer hold the band together by a thread across 3 states. i will continue to write and record and eventually will be reforming the band out of boston.
but for now- one last go round. one last night of booze and debauchery with the original and founding members of waiting for sully. if you've never made it to a show, well then this is the one to go to. i wont be accepting excuses; no hall passes or doctor's notes. wahhh- your liver hurts. i dont want to hear it. look to your right for show details ---->

12-22-05 thanks to all our friends who came out to ray kellys last week. things got a bit out of control; i even cut my hand open and bled all over my guitar punk rock style. anyway just saying thanks to all the freinds and fans who made the night possible. click here:
11-7-05 thats right sluts- 2 updates in one night. i know your heads are probably going to explode. three new mp3s up on the MEDIA page. check them out and let me know what you think here.
11-7-05 i dont mind the weather, ive got scarves and caps and sweaters....
getting cold in new england and i love it. all you people that live for the summer can go chill with jeb in florida. just stop bitching. and for christs sake put on a sweater and stop turning up the heat. just cause you have been cursed with bad genetics and poor circulation doesnt mean i have sweat my ass off. thats right implied it; my genes are superior.
8-10-05 Getting excited for the weekend. Always a crazy time at Raykellys. Show starts at 9pm with special guests Babystrange from boston. They are leaving on a UK tour the next day so come, wish them well and make sure they leave hung over.
Rays has some drink specials that you will all love: $3 budlights, and $3 jaeger shots.
WE WILL HAVE T SHIRTS FOR SALE!!!!!! you need them. infact you will need at least 2 of them so that you can keep wearing one while the other is in the wash. or do as i do and refuse to wash your clothes. i dont even need hangers anymore; my shirts stand up on their own. hope to see you on saturday.
7-25-05 So check this out. while poisoning my body with general tso's chicken and enough msg to choke a mule, i ended the meal by cracking a stale fortune cookie to find the most profound statement ever to come from #7 Chinese in Dedham, MA.
"the pleasure of what we enjoy is spoiled by desire for more."
how true. as i was putting down 3 lbs of breaded, fried, and douched chicken, i thought: wow my arteries dont hurt enough, i should really have another 3lbs of heaven. so i did. and then i died.
so what did we learn today kids?: always eat the fortune cookie first. now buy a tshirt you jerks. -kevin
7-8-05 I wasn't kidding when I said check back often. We have t-shirts (not lying this time). We'll be selling them for $12 at shows. If you're anti-social or agoraphobic, you can e-mail kurt@waitingforsully.com and order one while they last. $15 including shipping and handling. We'll only be accepting paypal for now. Sizes are S, M, L, and XL. Check them out:
7-5-05 Hey guys, a few things. First off, we've been taking a bit of a break so far this summer so the updates have been slow. Kevin broke his computer, so he hasn't been here to write anything stupid and embarrass us. Secondly, we lied about the t-shirts. We didn't have them in may. We still don't actually. BUT- we sent them out for printing today so we should have some in Greenfield on saturday. Also, check back often because we'll have them available for purchase online soon. Thirdly, we're taking it slow this month. No shows scheduled after saturday (july 9) until august at Ray Kelly's with the awesome Babystrange. Maybe we'll actually learn a new song at some point in there, but don't hold your breath. Luckily for all of us, Ray Kelly's will be a blast as always and it won't matter if we play the same 3 songs for 2 hours.
Anyways, that's it for now. Check back for t-shirts, and see you saturday night at the Greenfield Youth Center. People requested all ages shows, so there's no excuse not to be there.
-matt
ps- if you've never heard of the band Dredg, go pick up or download "Catch Without Arms". And then go pick up "El Cielo".
5-2-05 lots of happenings in WFS land. first and foremost we have a very sexy new PlanB video up on the MEDIA page. so go check it out and give us your feedback. second, we will have cd's and t-shirts forsale at the next show: Ray Kellys may 14th. This is a big one, so count on being there. BabyStrange will be playing the show with us. They are hands down the best band in Boston right now, so come out and get crazy with us!
3-12-05 so i was thinking about it the other day- and i can't remember the last time since ive had a new pair of underwear. i'm pretty sure ive had the same 16 or so boxers in rotation since the begining of college. is that gross? i mean im sort of a clean guy so i guess its not that bad. maybe i should just go commando. but that means id have to wash my pants more than once every 3 months. this is just a lose/lose situation. i think i am going to boycott pants altogether...
3-8-05 everyone go read 'survivor' by chuck palahniuk. that, and go check out the plan b video on the MEDIA page. kurt just redid it using a lot of the same footage. it just looks way better. let me know what you think
2-11-05 i was so bored tonight that i watched blade runner on the spanish channel. apparently i need something else to occupy my time. i'm sick of writing my crappy songs, i'm bored with porn and the da vinci code has left me burnt out on novels for the moment. how can anybody compare to dan brown's writing?:
"naked now, except for his loin swaddle, Silas wrapped his cloak over the end of the iron rod..."
thats just too good
1-24-05 hey all- back in action after the holidays. hitting it hard this weekend with 2 shows. we are even getting the ska band back together for a few song to relive the early 90's glory days. i'm sure its going to require a few pitchers of beer. directions for the shows are up. just click the links -->
12-04-04 so our boy steve parker just hooked us up with a show at CBGBs in NYC. its a big show so you fools better come out. and if you dont know CBGBs- to put it this way; when avril lavigne wants to be "punk rock" she wears a CBGBs Tshirt on tv. but she gets away with anything cause she is 19, canadian, and hot. if i wore a that t-shirt i would probably get my ass beat cause i am pretty far from punk rock.
11-01-04 kurt just finished a stellar video for golden gloves. i personally think its the best thing i have ever seen. it even beats midget porn, and thats saying a lot. its in the MEDIA. check it out. and come out to fenway on friday and see us!
10-18-04 thanks to everyone who came out to the luckydog. it was a killer show. pics are up in the MEDIA care of seamus. thanks buddaee

9-15-04 you all need to go see this movie: freedom park. it has an extedend time slot through MA so GO SEE IT! you will laugh your balls off. but besides that you will love the music since i have 6 songs in the movie. check us out at tammany's in worcester 9-20 with the rest of the 'freedom park' artists. mapquest it sluts:
8-24-04 waiting for sully is being featured in the upcoming movie freedom park. we have 2 songs on the soundtrack and about 5 or 6 in the film. the premier is on Sep 9th at worcester showcase north. come out and support the cause!
8-23-04 so we rocked ray kellys hardcore. pitchers and pitchers of beer. mmm... we played most of our songs twice but nobody gave a damn. or maybe they were just too busy watching the olympics in the corner of the bar. oh well. pictures are up in the MEDIA
TOADS PLACE CANCELLED ON THE 26th
INSTEAD, COME SEE US FRIDAY AT BOSTON BILLIARDS!!!!!!!!

8-13-04 thanks for all who came out to toads last night. it was a great show. i can now say i played on the same stage as mick jagger's wrinkly ass. fantastic. for those who missed us- just consider it a warm up for saturday night. we are taking over ray kelly's so come down and have many beers with us. thats right, many. and then one more.
just cause i love you guys- directions to ray kellys: Rt 8 South (or Rt 91 south) to Rt 95 South. Take exit 25, Left off the ramp. Go through 4 lights. After 4th light Ray Kelly's will be 2 blocks on the right. Park anywhere on the street. 5$ cover
7-20-04 so i just drove back from maryland and boy does my car smell like man ass. is that normal? i also have this strange fondness of pink shirts and the realization that i am never drinking again.
check out the new show dates »
these are gonna be killer.
7-13-04 "Cops Come and try to snatch my crops These pigs wanna blow my house down Head underground To the next town"
yeah the cops had to come settle things down on 'sat day nite! all the white people in greenwich ct couldn't handle us. we only made it through 3 songs, but what a glorious 3 song set it was. it all worked out though, cause the birthday boy danny-b got on the mic and did his thing- which was apparently making fun of a guy with cystic fibrosis. way to go dan. and we've reached a new low...
we then proceeded to kick the keg, shoot corn whiskey, and hang out with some rappers. it was ridiculous. there are some very flattering pictures up. i tried to choose the ones that make me look less like a retard, but it turns out those don't exist. thanks to steve for letting us take over his house. click the moonshine/cornwhiskey to see the debauchery.
7-10-04 i've been averaging about 1 of these entries a month. that's pretty piss poor. i promise to do better- especially since people have told me the actually read this. what's wrong with you anyway? there isn't any porn here. didn't you know that? unlike myself it appears that my friends use the internet for other reasons besides smut. who knew...
anyway, we played a stellar show at Kenny's on 6/26 and had a lot of friends come out. it got real silly and i wasn't exactly coherent by the second set. thanks to all there and especially to nicky nice and cisco for giving us the rockstar treatment. i owe those guys a lot of drinks. nick's pictures are up in the GALLERY . and thanks to mark for hooking us up with the bar owners.
6-22-04 so yes we have a show. f'ing finally. and its in CT. true, it might be in the ghetto but who cares. look right or email me for details. check out the GALLERY page for a new song and video produced by Kurt. its pretty sexy. oh wait, thats me...
5-18-04 i threw some new lyrics up here: (http://www.waitingforsully.com/lyrics.htm) a few people had been asking for them. its probably cause i bury my vocals in the recordings due to my lyrics sucking. i even thought about taking the lyrics page away. at least made sure there is no link on the menu bar. only the true fans/stalkers get to see them.
5-3-04 Mike: The whole Judy Garland thing kinda turned me on. Does that make me some kind of fag? Trent: No, baby, you're money...
4-7-04 so i finally counted this morning. i pass 6 dunkin donuts on the way to work. granted i have a long ass commute, but for christ's sake, 6? and thats not counting the 2 others that are within half a mile of where i work. what the f!!!! but i say screw em all. im only gonna go to the krispy kreme that opened up across the street. next time you see me i might not fit into my cock rock leather pants.
2-23-04 hey all. back after a month of busting my balls for the man. been busy with work and recording. will have a new song up on the site soon enough, and a video that kurt shot for plan - b. thats right, he is the next spike jones. man i love spike jones, but has anyone seen the phantom planet video? its super lame. well at least the band got rid of jason scharwtzman.
1-13-04 i swear to god if i hear one more lincoln park song on the radio im gonna slit my wrists. mix that in with some staind and puddle of mudd and you have about the most mediocre sounds of the past 30 years. what the hell is going on? ive given up on music. i think i am going to retire with my outkast cd and move to tuvalu. i don't know where that is, but i am pretty sure clear channel doesnt broadcast out there.
12-23-03 "my circus train pulls through the night, full of lions and trapeez artists
im done with elephants and clowns, i want to run away and join the office..."
Mike Doughty
12-17-03 so i have to sign a contract in order to play this villanova gig. but one of the stipulations of the contract is that i can not say or perform anything that is derogatory to the catholic religion. wtf? part of me wants to be like lauryn hill and scold old white men about their hypocrisy. did you hear about her at the vatican? but i would never bad mouth the faith, why would i; jesus loves emo...
12-16-03 how cool is the speak n spell sample in the new bizkit song? i think its freaking hillarious. that stupid computer voice was one of my fondest childhood memories. that and being a fat kid. oh wait... that wasnt so fun.
12-12-03 so my company christmas party is tomoro. they put us up in the westin hotel in boston, black tie, open bar. ya know- spare no expense. so i figure since i have only been working here a month, it probably wouldn't be a good idea to pound 10 gin and tonics, tell the president to f*** off, and then boot my chilean sea bass all over the shrimp boat... i dont know, i am still undecided.
12-9-03 so kurt and i are thinking of shooting a video for a Sully song. i pretty much hope he takes the lead on this one cause i waste all of my creativity on music. as far as videos are concerned- i have no idea what the hell to even ask for. i feel like stillwater "just make us look cool man..."
anyone with opinions for which song we should shoot- or just crazy ideas for videos- please email me kevin@waitingforsully.com. i will not accept submissions that include jesse wearing a thong. sorry guys...
12-8-03 ive been listening to a ton of the cure lately. i can thank my boss at work for that one. i highly recommend any of the cure live cd's. they really cut through the bullshit and get right to the rocking out. none of this dated 80's crap production.
then right as i am on my cure kick, i pick up blink's new album and who is on it? robert smith from the cure. and it f***ing rules. im glad they put him on there, cause they blatantly ripped off the cure for at least 3 songs on that album.
i guess its ok to rip someone off as long as you bring their old wrinkled ass out of retirement and give their career a breath of fresh air. you can probably expect a cure cover at our next show. or maybe ill just steal some chord progressions like blink and put out a platinum album.
12-4-03 so why does evanescence suck so bad? well let me tell you. because record companies are trying to make an epic production out of mediocre talent. man i thought my lyrics were sub par- but this chick is seriously awful. however she is way sexier than me. i am seriously debating sleeping my way to the top. i think i could make some record exec really happy.
12-1-03 since there isn't a whole lot of news, i have decided to use this section as more of a journal. ramblings from massachusetts.
but first i will update everyone on the bit of news that we do have: sorry to say that harris is no longer with us. his other band bastille (http://www.angelfire.com/indie/bastille/) is doing very well, and its tough for him to divert is attention. and who can blame him really. so we are having a bit of a line up change. kurt has since moved to drums, and we are currently getting out shit together as a trio.
we have a few people in mind for guitar, but no definites yet. so hey- if you want in this band send me an email. just realize you will have to deal with my gustopato-esque control issues, kurt's flamboyant hand waiving and jesse's smell. sounds fun huh? no wonder we haven't found anyone yet.
Sully currently has a show lined up on Villinova's campus for January 16th. looking forward to it cause we haven't played a shows in years. well months actually, but it feels like an eternity. i hope it forces us to get things moving again.
Tour Dates:
