Bedwetters 5 years part 1

It was a regular day at the office again. Brought my ideas together for my social media campaigns and stuff, when I suddenly brought a halt and realized, that OH man, I gotta write some. Actually it wasn't quite like that:D.

I looked at the calendar and I remembered that BW is gonna be 5 years old in 2. oct. And we've got some plans for celebrating it. It should involve bringing all the roots back together- I mean all our bands we had at that time( Mushy, BW, paingreed, fortified). For those who don't know these names- We lived in a small summer resort town called Pärnu. In summer its nice, you have the beach, a lot of parties and skateboarding and stuff, but the rest of the time, its a big fucking bombhole.

I started to play guitar and all the scene was so small back then, that we all played in different bands and jammed together- it was just a huge crew and thats it. Paingreed was the band which started to make something out of it. I played solo and some screams, Jos played bass. I had Mushy at the same time, which was really hardcore, and J had BW at its roots. I mean, I really laughed at BW at first...it was just funny. Jos didn't even handle playing bass, and then he started a band on his own, where he sang and played bass. At the same time there was fortified, where karla was playing guitar and some other guys Jonas, and J and Moko.

Some of us were really hardcore into it, thinking it was gonna be IT around the world, some of us just were having fun...I mean we were really young and LOUD(unpro). But as time flew by, paingreed quit playing together, 'cause as we grew bigger here in estonia, we realized that some of us weren't taking it as seriously as we should, so we quit. We replaced one of our guys, but it took 12minutes to realized that it was fucked in the first place.

I continued with mushy- it was quite a success, with all these competition we won(basically EVERY comp.) but still, it all ran together. I mean, we didn't quit or anything, still playin' but we're taking our time. At the same time, bedwetters made different variations in their lineup. It got more serious and after Mushy had raigned all the comp's, BW was right behind us. We kind of grew the whole scene here.

And when BW hit the jackpot button with the youth band thing, everything collapsed. Never had a young band been in such media attention like this before. And then they had fuckups in their lineup. They had gigs and stuff, but the former guitarist Oliver just didn't fit in somehow. I mean, I know they had fights and shit, but I don't know exactly... So one day Jos came to me and asked me if I wanted to join. He had asked me the same thing like twice before, but I was really sceptical with it, I had these other projects and shit, and they weren't that good, so I was like: "maan just practice a bit, and we'll see..." But at that time they were pretty good and I said:" Yo guys, I'll try it out, I'll play your songs a few gigs and we'll see what happens...but I'm not promising anything!"

So I joined the crew. I wasn't afraid that I wasn't gonna fit in, 'cause I was in it for a long time really, just not in the band, and(i don't wanna brag) I knew my skillz.MWhahaha. So we had like a few rehearsal and there was the first gig with me...Oh shit, I've got a picture of us somewhere...I'll blog the part two, when I get the picture today.:D
