ILLEGAL ALIENS – 140- “Spiritual Encounter”

Roland — Mon, 20 Jul 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“Rita has finally reached the “Age of Cultivation”.

This is exactly what Rita’s dad was talking about way back in the beginning of their journey.

If you’ve been following along with the story since the very start, then you know that Cleftonian children need to reach the Age of Cultivation with the help of a Cleftonian mentor, usually their father, or they become Cleftonian bums, but in this case they had the lovable neurotic, Professor “B” to guide Rita.

The issue is, Professor “B” is not Cleftonian and Rita still reached the Age of Cultivation with his guidance. How so?

I guess you have to wait till’ I write the last half of the story in the far future.

As of now, I’ll still be posting stuff every so often, but “Illegal Aliens” will be concluded very soon.

Just hang tight, keep learning them tunes and go out and get in a band. Who cares if you pee in your panties in front of the ladies.

Just do it, weenie and I’ll keep you updated.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 139 – The Win?

Roland — Mon, 06 Jul 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“Rita is the new, “Ultimate Shred Battle Champ”.

Woo-hoo! Yay! Rita won a big ass gold plated plastic trophy!

And she won it with ease by playing a bunch of quarter note power chords. Who would think that solid timing is crucial in music? Right?

Well it is! Twitch’s timing sucks. That leads to my point to practice with a metronome. Always!

Are you a drummer? Then, the metronome is your best buddy.

I take that back. Are you a musician? Then, the metronome is your lover.

Remember that.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 138 – “The Comeback Kid”

Roland — Mon, 22 Jun 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“After Rita forgives her mom, a newfound peace and confidence engulfs her. Now, she’s ready for the last round and unleashes her last move.”

It’s coming down to the end.

Rita, has an enormous confidence and is going to unleash the “Super Secret Mega Metronome Technique.”

We’ll see if it’s effective and hope that her music Professor “B” isn’t a kook and knows what he’s teaching.

That’s it for now, my brain is fried and I can’t think of anything else to write.

Peace.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 137- “The Secret to Life”

Roland — Mon, 08 Jun 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“Rita’s mom pops in the locker room and surprises her, but she’s not having it.”

The world has brainwashed our minds to believe that an amazing life, is: Wealth, Fame, Power, Greatness, Happiness and Knowledge.

EHHH!!! Dead wrong buddy!

Schools, Hollywood, Culture has tapped into our vulnerable young minds to think this. It’s no wonder there are so many dysfunction in society and especially in families.

The key to a an amazing life is “FORGIVENESS”.

Why? It brings about: Peace, Love, Joy, and Wisdom in our lives.

You can be broke or rich and still live in hell, if an individual holds onto anger against their neighbor, partner, or cousin they’ll never endure, Love, Peace, and Joy. They look for it in the wrong places like, relationships, sex, money, food and drugs.

Only God is real love.

So, forgive your cheap ass smart phone that tends to load the webpage so slowly and don’t smash it on the ground. Just, relax and wait, it will load.

Peace.

PS: I still like money. =)

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 136 – “Whining”

Roland — Mon, 25 May 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“After Rita gets the slip from Twitch, Professor “B” drags her back to the locker rooms to re-strategize.”

After you get beaten down, what do you do?

You re-strategize, come up with a different plan, because Plan “A” didn’t work.

People fail because they have fear of rejection, fear of embarrassment, fear of mistakes.

I have NO fear! None of the above. Well, maybe if someone pointing a gun at me or threatened my pet monkey. That’s pretty logical, but aside from that I have NONE!

I’ve been rejected, been called names, been turned down, been accused, but that never stopped me from pushing forward. Yes, confidence plays a critical key, but you also have got to have the, “I don’t give a flying fudge if they say Yes or No”, attitude.

Why?

Because, they are many more opportunities out their in the world. If you ask 100 times, someone is bound to say Yes. It could be 200 times or maybe even 300 times, but if you have that persistent attitude you will make it.

Virtually, nothing in life is really no big deal.

Just do it, weenie.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 135- “Battle Rage”

Roland — Mon, 11 May 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“The battle rages on for the Ultimate Shred Battle Trophy. Until, Twitch pulls a slippery one.”

Wow!

It’s May 2020. I know I haven’t mentioned anything about COVID 19, but I just been super busy.

This story keeps going on and on like the energizer bunny and it’s almost at the end. Just hang in there.

To tell you the truth I’m not freaked out about COVID-19. Yes, I have to put on a mask when I walk in a grocery store or they’ll kick my ass out, but whatever. I need food right?

All the media hype is going insane and making my family freak out, especially my Mom. She’s kinda freaked out and that’s because she keeps watching that fake new media. It’s all a ploy to keep you afraid and under their hypnosis.

Come through the tunnel and see the light. See the light!

Stay safe, Toon Tuners.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 134- “Mistaken Identity”

Roland De Aragon — Mon, 27 Apr 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“Here we go once more as Rita and Twitch battled it out for the mega trophy.”

Take the challenge. Don’t allow your thoughts to control you. You’ll probably get a bit of anxiety, but if you doubt all thoughts then all will be fine and you’ll have courage to stand up and fight.

You’ll win some and lose some, but at least you’ll have courage.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 133 “The Final Battle”

Roland De Aragon — Mon, 13 Apr 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“The day has come for the Final Battle.”

Alright, now. This is it.

I won’t write much on this one. All I’m gonna say is, if you wanna be a music pro, you gotta get up on stage and shake in your boots and make mistakes.

Then do it again, again, again, again, again, again and again.

Not much to say from here. Enjoy.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 132- “Kept Secrets”

Roland De Aragon — Mon, 30 Mar 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“Rita spots the evil dirty roaches, then almost uncovers Professor B’s hidden secret. “

Ya, we all got secrets. Right?

I know you do too.

There’s gotta be something in your past that no one knows about. Just keep it to yourself and let no one know. Not your mama, your girlfriend, or your wife. If you do, then they’ll judge you and maybe persecute you.

Stole something? Everyone’s done it, even if it’s small. God will judge you and he’s forgiving, but when the “Man” finds out. He’ll persecute the hell out of you, whether you confess or not. Man is unforgiving.

As a musician I’m not advocating using another musicians song, erasing their name and adding yours. That’s lying, with intention to deceive.

I don’t believe in copyright. It’s ridiculous to think you can literally steal a songwriters musical idea and then can possibly get sued for it. You can’t steal an idea, you can copy it, Yes. But, you can’t steal it. That’s not logical.

Kids copy all the time when they’re drawing Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck. According to plagiarism.org that’s illegal. Lol!

Whatever.

ILLEGAL ALIENS – 131- “The Last Dose”

Roland De Aragon — Mon, 16 Mar 2020 08:00:00 +0000

“Rita receives the last dose of musical wisdom.”

Musical wisdom.

What is it?

I believe it’s all about making proper decisions within musical situations. How do you receive this musical wisdom?

Well, what you could do is learn from someone who’s “been there and done that.” Meaning, this individual has done everything that you wish to accomplish in your music career.

But…

Where do you find this individual? For musicians, they are everywhere. They’re in clubs gigging, schools teaching, and online teaching. There’s no excuse that you won’t find a master musician somewhere in your community.

I just have one bit of advice. Take private lessons with this master musician no matter what it costs. If he charges $200 per minute, who cares? Save up you pennies. Do not, and I mean do not replace one on one private lessons with online videos or books. They can be helpful, but not ideal.

There is something spiritual going on when you have a personal instructor who has mastered your craft. You get their mojo.

It doesn’t have to be in person, it could be through live video feed if it needs to be, because of location. But, it’s preferred.

All the greats had some form of personal musical instruction, because back in the good ol’ days. There was no internet or Youtube. You had to take private lessons.

The good ol’ days will come back one of these days.

Anyways, peace.
