Thursday..but to Me it's the Weekend

Today is Thursday but we are off school until next Wednesday what in the hell will I do with my time. I can tell you this...it will be with an ice cold Budweiser in hand that is for sure. The Godsmack show makes the cut.

That show is tomorrow night with Alter Bridge.. This will be a good show. It's crazy I have actually bought tickets to two concerts this year. That is just unheard of. After working in the music industry for so long it's just plain weird buying concert tickets. I definitely pick and choose my shows now. I felt this one and Cruefest were worth the money.

I guess I will also have to make a beach run one of these days as well.

Budweiser's all around. Beers up. Wait... I think I hear someone knocking.. Could it be Vivid Video?

Yes A New Post

It's been a while huh.. Well nothing really exciting has been happening. I can just say that Godsmack and Alter Bridge is Friday and I'm stoked to see this show. I can't wait to see Sully the other Mighty Midget. Dio being the original Mighty Midget. These guys both need a step stool to kick a duck in the ass. Height doesn't matter this song still kicks ass..



I did make a funny observation yesterday at the gym. This dude wore his shades the entire time during his workout..I am pretty sure this was not a case of him needing to wear them other than him just thinking he was a bad ass...which he wasn't. I thought it was quite comical and certainly got my day started with a good laugh.

I was watching the news today and I heard that Snickers had to pull one of their TV commercials since people were bitching that it was making fun of gay people. Lets watch..



All I can say is...If the shoe fits...

Today is the last day of 3D for this month and all I can say is Thank God! Who wants to build a house in a 3D class? Not this guy that's for sure. I don't need to know how to build a house to go work for Vivid Video when I'm done with school. (now that's funny)

Back to Class

Well it was quite the lazy weekend. I must say you have to have those every once in a while. Went and played miniature golf on Sunday night then proceeded to get a nice little buzz on after. One problem from Sunday night was the fact that I had to pay 10 bucks for a pitcher of Coors Light! What the hell?! I have never paid ten dollars for a pitcher of Coors Light in my life. Talk about getting screwed. I didn't even get a kiss first either.

Yesterday I went to the ATM machine and it was one of the newer ones where you just slide your check into the machine...well that was nice since it just ate my check and then I had to call some 800 number to get everything situated. What a pain in the ass. I will say this that thing rips that check out of your hand so damn fast.

The rest of the day was uneventful. Sat on my ass watching TV and playing some guitar.

I have been jamming out to Drowning Pool and their tune 37 stitches. Check out the acoustic version here. They just filmed an official video for it last week.

The Weekend

Well for a three day weekend for us school kids it has been quite relaxing so far. Friday night I did absolutely nothing. Saturday I ended up at the beach and it was good to get away. Cocoa Beach was pretty dead for a Saturday, but you can always find a couple hotties no matter what.

Later on did a whole bunch of nothing. I sat and watched the new Ted Nugent DVD Sweden Rocks and that is the biggest misleading title ever. It was filmed at some festival over there in '06 and I have to say the Swedes don't know much about Uncle Ted. For more than half the show the crowd just really isn't into it, but there are some die hards there for sure. I had to post this vid from Aerosmith and Mr. Nugent from 1978 performing Milk Cow Blues.



FUCKING AWESOME!

Watching that performance makes me think the only one who enjoyed that was Ted and Brad Whitford. I still say you can't beat old Aerosmith. You can see how fucked up they are in that video footage. Good stuff

I also checked out the new Tesla DVD. That DVD does not dissappoint either. Great behind the scenes footage and the concert it awesome. Frank Hannon and Dave Rude just rip it up on guitar. Here's a clip with former guitarist Tommy Skeoch on guitar.



Acoustic or plugged in Tesla is one of the great bands to see live.

Another Day Another Dollar

Yesterday for the first time in a long time I was excited about some new music to come out. The new Tesla DVD arrived in stores and I can't wait to get my hands on it. They are a great bunch of guys and one hell of a rock band. This video has some pretty funny shit in it. Just watch for the captioning.



They will have a new CD out in September or October of this year of all new material.

Also yesterday the new Jesse James Dupree from Jackyl solo CD hit. I like JJD but what's the point of putting what you think are 20 songs on the CD only to find out that about nine of those tracks are some intro bullshit that no one cares about? Just leave that shit off the CD. Waste of time and space. Just write another damn song.

Bitch session fulfilled for today. Now I am off to 3D class.. YAY (sarcasm mode turned on)

Tuesday

What a weekend. A weekend of basically nothing. Which I must say was awesome to just sit around and do a whole lot of nothing. Saturday night was the only time I really did anything and that was the usual hanging out with friends and drinking some beers.

I managed to mess around in photoshop yesterday and I must say the more I play around in that program the more I love it. It's amazing the things you can do with it.

Today it's back to flash class. I'm already looking forward to this weekend since it's a three day one for us.

Well before I head out for today I had to post this video. It's wrong but hilarious. Not to mention the kid doing the videos actually likes doing them and has been in some indie films.

Buckcherry

I don't know what it is about Buckcherry but I am digging their new song that was "leaked". By leaked I mean released by the band...You don't leak a song and also have a video for it. The song is called "Too Drunk" and I must say it's catchy as hell. They played this song at the Cruefest and I dug it then. Josh Todd writes some funny lyrics..like this one "I got so many women comin' after me I put some pussy on layaway." Classic. Enjoy the video:



The new CD Black Butterfly lands in September. At the Cruefest they rocked not to mention that Josh Todd is the bastard child of Steven Tyler and Mick Jagger. Just look at the guy you will see what I'm talking about.

Short and to the Point

To start off my morning I headed to the gym and the worst part was I forgot to charge my ipod last night. That I guarantee will never happen again. The gym has on XM38 which has to be the crappiest music I have ever heard. It's some pop shit, but it's not even tolerable pop shit. The entire time I was there I just wanted to shoot myself. The best though was when the DJ is introducing a song by the shittiest band on the planet Fall Out Boy and he says their new CD is going to have guitar riffs like AC/DC. Now even if you have no clue as to who this band is you can bet your life that they couldn't hold AC/DC's jock. EVER!

I got home today and wrote a note on my wall that says Charge ipod everyday. What I experienced can never happen again.

I also decided today that I need to teach yoga....BUT I will only teach women who wear bikini's to class...Enjoy:



But wait there's more...



God Bless America!

And well damn I had to put this one up too..

Here We Go...

Back from Summer break and man was it worth it. I loved every second of it.

Before the Cruefest earlier last week I saw Tantric and they put on a good show. The Social here in Orlando is a killer place to see a show. The only bad thing was I got gum in my damn hair. What the f*ck?! I was not happy. Luckily it wasn't a lot, but I couldn't get the scene from Something About Mary out of my mind. I came home and got it out with some ice.

I must say the Cruefest was awesome. First and foremost Motley Crue was the best I had seen them in years. Vince could sing the show was awesome everything was just right for those guys that night. Buckcherry was pretty good..I must even admit that Papa Roach was good too...they were much better than I was expecting. Sixx A.M. was also good, but the problem is that music is just so damn depressing. I know it's written about Nikki's bouts with heroin, but still it's just such a downer not really something I need to see or hear live.

Headed down to Cocoa Beach for the 4th and that was cool had a killer dinner at a place called Fishlips in Port Canaveral. Watched some fireworks on the beach with my friend Sharen who came in to visit. There really wasn't a city fireworks display so we just watched a bunch of people who were lighting off theirs on the beach. It was pretty cool.

Today I start 2 more new classes 3D and Flash. This should be a cool month of learning.

Happy F@#king Birthday To Me

I love my birthday not because of the party or anything like that it's just I know I will have the day off. The beginning of my summer break has been pretty slow and relaxing but now it's time to throw down some ice cold Bud's. Tonight going to hang with some friends and strip club trip maybe in order..Then it's off to Cruefest tomorrow in Tampa and Cocoa on Friday. Damn I can't wait.

Now check this shit out.. Last night I'm watching the news and they caught a freaking serial killer in my hometown of Granite City, IL. That's just plain crazy. Nothing ever happens there.. NOTHING. To top that shit off they caught him out side of Bindy's bar. That's like the only place to go when I ever visit there.

OK.. it's time to start this party..

Oh yea.. I also accept late gifts and money.

Catch you in a few days with all the details.
