Yup.

Well, I'm on a tablet...

I had a band, while still in high school. We fucked around and even had an album cut. We looked the part and we got a recording contract with a major record label. They sent us on a tour down the eastern seaboard.

Then, I went to LA and I lost my band.

We got our forward and paid whatever we were owed for the tour. Initially, we rented different places but we all ended up living in a house that we trashed. We got a large sum of money, for our ages and the time.

We didn't step one foot in the studio.

I'm pretty sure we still owe the lable money.

We did exactly what you are thinking we did.

I eventually got some more money from my mom, so I could drive back across the country, dropping some of them off along the way. I don't remember the exact time frame, but I was signed up to join the Marines within just a few days. Way back then, I said I'd never play in another band. I didn't, until I needed the money to survive college. The GI Bill was kinda shitty back then.
