[[Well, with the departure of "Brad" and "Rob" comes the departure of me. Im very much not following their leave because they chose to.. because no one informed me of anything, but thats beside the point.
Things have been a major lack of fun lately and I have not enjoyed this for a few weeks now, and I need not go into details. For those that have been great friends who I have met and loved through this journal both IC and OOC.. thank you guys for making my experience back as Chester a fun one.. but come this time Im just altogether done with it once more. I've walked away from this role once before and now I am walking away again.
I've my own reasons for leaving and I know there are a couple that would understand.. You know the fun is lost when signing on is a chore, when friends completely stop talking to you, and when choices and things are made and your excluded.. the fun has been missing and this is my goodbye.
Thanks again to the friends I have made and kept and continue to stick by me :) You can contact me via email at ljchaz_bennington@hotmail.com if you would like to keep in touch and you have no means of contacting me :P
Peace.
-Chester Shaped]]

Well here we sit folks, once again waiting on my health. Last night's show was cancelled because of this throat infection or something I seemed to have aquired. I guess this is my way of just apologizing for the poor health I seem to have following me. Working on getting back to normal, working on getting my voice back where it should be, so hopefully we can continue on as I hate having to cancel shows over something like this. Takes me back to the rushing and stuff for Meteora.
I am a show stopper, but for all the wrong reasons, so again apologies to those in Evansville that have to wait on this postponed concert.
I'm out as I try to swiftly kick this thing in it balls.

Here we go, a little less on the personal note but a little more for the people to check out, below I have a link to the "Meteora Player" and what it does is that it shows upcoming things for our tours, allows you to check and see if other tracks have been added to the player, allows you to check out Somewhere I belong, and allows you to view the video. Just something to help keep up with little things here and there, so check it out.

Cyclefly - Karma Killer |
] |
First off this will be yet another promotional piece for everyone to keep up to date with as much as I can offer at the time. LPTV is a series we have been featuring, and will continue to feature until the release of Meteora. It is an informational thing for fans to get an inside look at the creative process we took to get where we are, and also to show you around a little bit. The life of recording as we commonly like to refer to it as. So below I have provided a link right to the player, there are currently four episodes out and each brings with them something a little more amusing.. I hope. The current features Brad and I, Brad showing his guitar parts and of course myself pimping the studio.
Somewhere I belong was finally aired yesterday. We had the pleasure to call in a few different radio stations, as a way to touch base back with the fans, hope everyone was listening in!
Speaking of Somewhere I Belong, this Saturday.. March 1st, MTV2 will be showing Making the Video for the single, followed by a 5hr program afterwords dedicated to us, make sure to keep your TV's locked to the channel as it starts at 2pm(Eastern).
Touring right now:
2.23.03 Milan
2.27.03 Hamburg
3.2.03 Paris
3.5.03 London

7.19.03 Columbus, OH
7.25.03 St Louis, MO
7.27.03 Minneapolis, MN
8.1.03 Denver, CO
8.3.03 Irving, TX
And a bunch cities for the Projekt Revolution 2003 have been listed and mentioned, as of now there are no confirming dates on them but we will be bringing in tote with us, since Jurrasic 5 is no longer on the show.. it will be Xzibit, Mudvayne, and Blindside.

Godsmack - Straight Out of Line |
] |
In the followings of a fellow bandmate, I have decided to close my personal life off from those that are not friends of mine. I use this to write personal things and feelings and I have a need to shell off some of these from the outer world.
I will if you wish to continue looking through my journal, add you if you choose to add me to your friends list. I've been toying with this idea and finally, tonight I am putting it into effect. I will be keeping the public posts and announcements unlocked for those that want to keep up with whats going on show wise and tour wise and just general ramblings.
So again, friends only.. add me and I will add back.

Disturbed - Violence Fetish |
] |
So what is it that makes a band? I think this question has been drifting about a lot lately, because the problems when they smooth out... somehow ripple and create waves. We're stuck back in the middle of yet another turning point. Harsh words are being spoken, jaded feelings are coming into the open, and one member belittles another.
I have been sitting back lately, you know letting the shit flow because there is only really one person that seems to have a problem. We have amongst us what I would call an instigator and really, it's getting old and tiresome. So much that I sit at the point of not wanting to associate or be around him. Every little thing turns to a fight, and everything he has to say is negative and degrading to what he used to consider friends and it wears thin and tires quickly.
Yes Mike, I would be talking about you. I'm not oblivious to your feelings about how you feel I act, or that you can freely voice your words on being a "whore". I don't at this point give two fucks what you think about me, and about who I would like to spend time with. You were after all the same person that was ranting on about marriage and how it's become over rated with others doing it freely, and how love shouldn't be thrown around so carelessly... funny you contradicted your own words. Because someone else is happy and you’re now wallowing in your own destruction, keep your shit to yourself. People make mistakes that is what you told me when you left the band. I would rather see someone split before taking vows, at least then it wasn't such a huge commitment.
Maybe its jealousy.
Moving along, because if I sit and think about all the faults and actions he took... and thinking about the term whore... well you catch my drift, it could be applied right back but I am not settling down to that level, I have to much to look forward to and as long as I take care of myself and the one I care about, the world can fall apart around me and I could care less, and why should I care less? When friends can turn on you behind your back, why bother?
Anyway, things other then the above mentioned have been really good for me. I've received so much affection I believe, in previous ramblings... that my dream is reality. I wake every morning with a peaceful smile on my face, recalling all the subtle smiles, touches, and kisses... how do things get so amazing. I'm blinded by the affects of what another person can offer, this is a whole new sensation... being completed, everything I've ever wanted lays in the palm of my hand, and I cradle it gently afraid that I could rupture or damage it, that other influences might try and destroy it for me. I finally now understand the greater meaning of giving yourself to another, sharing every locked detail and letting the guards down... trusting.
I had more to share but I need to leave for now, my attention is being requested.

[This will be the new journal for Chester, I've carried it over from the former chazzy_b, all the entries below this one are from when I originally took it over, and I know it is a pain to switch journals and names but bear with me here, all the entries except the most recent two have been cut-tagged to save the spam hassle. AIM name and stuff is all the same.]

Blindside :: Thought Like Flames |

I don't do pictures often but with the new album coming I just thought a little proper boosting couldn't hurt for those that feel out of the loop with whats going on. Meteora. Remember that name and remember this date 3.24.03 for international, and 3.25.03 for US. We are gearing up as much as we can, and a flyer made by a fan has been floating around, so I will post it and show it for those to see. Remember this is all done for the fans and because we love what we do, ups and downs all alike and Brad just gave me a swift kick in the ass about all this.
