This is an overflow of work(s) from the mind of James Covington...

 

home wiring job on an EMG 85 pick up in my SG.  input, volume pot, on/off button, momentary kill switch.  pain in the ass for one pick up, turned out pretty cool though.

the piece of bubinga wood that almost killed me.  A table saw can turn a chunk of wood into a life taking projectile.  This was being cut to make some pickup rings for one of my guitars when it got wedged in between the fence and the blade. It shot out faster than all hell and if i wouldnt have put my arm up it would have hit me in the throat.  It gouged my arm and left a scar.

I would be sad because you left me all alone.

I would be sad because the lies that you had told.
I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adore.
I would be sad because the love I had before.

I meant what I said when I said I would settle down with you although I know it’s not something that you were asking me to
do. 
And I know we are young but we won’t always be, so marry me; lets not be that predictable young couple changing, moving on. 
But I can tell by watching you that theres no chance of pushing through. 
The odds are so against us; you know most young love it ends like this.

I would be sad because you left me all alone.
I would be sad because the lies that you had told.
I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adore.
I would be sad for all the love I had before.

I meant what I said when I said I would rearrange my plans and change for you.
You know me; I’ve always been the kind with easy confidence. 
Confident enough to honestly beleive that nothing out there stopping me especially not someone who’s not loving me.
Now listen here I told you I could live on with out loving you. 
I was bluffing then, but it seems that just might have been the truth.
Well my dad told me, “One day son, this girl will think of what she’s done and hurting you will be the first of many more
regrets to come.” 
And he said, “If she doesn’t call, then it’s her fault and it’s her loss.”
I say, “It’s not that simple see, but then again it just may be.”

I would be sad because you left me all alone.
I would be sad for the lies that you had told.
I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adored.
I would be sad for all the love I had before.
I would be sad for all the love I had before.

lucky enough to be the only fan for the random 2:00a.m. Gut Ruckus reunion show in the space station.  These guys have been jamming for almost ten years.  Twas a good night.  I grabbed my old Canon 1d mk1 for the first time in a long time and took some sequence shots of Aaron, Jon, and David.  Funny to shoot with a camera that is over ten years old, weighs more than all of my camera equipment combined, takes a photo smaller than a current cellular phone, and is worth less than 3% of its original price.  but what is money any way?

ramble

sometimes you wish you would have just died in your sleep…  Sometimes im stricken with dreams that are images that i wished i would never see again.  I find it funny that most of the images are things i thought were my most beautiful memories at the time of their occurrence.  My brain has been an enemy lately.  It is MY brain though.  Why am i not in control of my own thoughts?  I dont know if my brain hates me or if my hatred for myself is just part of it.  Either way, i woke up this morning and was really sad because of what i experienced while i was asleep.  I am tired as hell because i feel like i was alive during the dream sequence.  I am rambling like a crazy person or just like the person i am.  I wish when i went to sleep i didnt see anything.  

I drink from time to time but i have never had the desire to do drugs until recently.  

some times you get to drive across the united states with some great friends.  I drove sixteen hours straight to pittsburgh for our friend Bobby’s wedding with my friend Dave McDermott sitting shotgun and a great man named Paul Sarkisian in the back seat.  The trip had some insane dialogue in the sixteen or so hours along with some extremely stomach aching laughter.  Snapped this photo at a gas pump somewhere in south carolina.

My friend had a busted old king and queen seat on his custom harley.  After some discussion we pulled it apart and i threw some thread in some cow hide and got it wrapped around the old seat.  Turned out pretty cool.  put an upside down cross in the back rest.  I had to put in some work on this for sure.  Had a good time.  Justin is happy so that’s all that matters.  

kickin and whippin ass.

some years ago when a group of us inhabited “the casselberry murder house” i snapped this photo of my friend max hartley.  I posted it a little while back and it fucking blew up.  how does such a thing happen?! pretty cray cray
