Got my Mastodon pack in the mail today. Lithographic artwork and the super deluxe cd of the new album Crack the Skye with DVD. The packaging is without a doubt the best packaging I've ever seen with the only close contender being Tool's 10000 Days. The vinyl doesn't come out until may. I haven't listened to it yet because I want to spend some ( Read more... )

okay weekend. didn't do anything friday except watch the Sabres lose again and fall asleep on the couch. Saturday I stopped by Rob's shop for a few hours and helped out and hung out while Brandon got tattooed. Austin and I hung out and Heidi eventually joined us after she got done doing stuff with her parents. I found some good deals at the mall ( Read more... )

Listening to an interview with Rex Brown (Pantera/Down) on the Jim Rome show. What a weird place to hear him interviewed ( Read more... )

Not much. Sleep and work. Keep running into Jason every saturday evening which is kind of neat. It's so nice out. I'm going to open the window and clean the house. I started playing Fable and it's really cool. Making me psyched to play the sequel when the price drops. Psyched about Ian's amp being upgraded. Maybe we'll finally jam again some day. I ( Read more... )

I just listened to the remastered remixed 180gram version of Torche's first album and it is the best sounding audio I've ever heard. Sure those Metallica slowed down master tape 45rpm blah blah blah records I have sound good, but I've never heard anything so heavy. Floored. The vinyl only track that was added was good too. Getting tattooed fer free ( Read more... )

George Thorogood was fun. He played the Cash and Hank covers and dropped some f bombs and just generally put on a lengthly fun show of blues based classic rock for my parents, us, a few normal people, and an army of old people dressed up in Harley Davidson costumes who acted insane. My parents had a good time and that is what mattered because it ( Read more... )

Life is repetition. Go to work. Fall asleep at work. Go home. Fall asleep at home. Watch Sabres win or lose. Sleep more. (all the while not really sleeping because I never get deep sleep) then on the weekend spend more money than I should on stuff that I don't need as an excuse to get out of the city because I don't like being here and go see a ( Read more... )

I'm so fucking annoyed that people in this house turn conversations into yelling over each other and refusal to listen to the point where I have to just walk away, especially when it turns into a double team against me for something that I did not say to both people in the first place which was brought up with no intention other than getting the ( Read more... )

Listening: Wino, Tom Waits, Queens of the Stone Age, Black Sabbath, Black Flag, Unearthly Trance, Black Mountain ( Read more... )

Tired Hungry Cold Dirty. Just played my first online Halo 3. I played for around and hour and a half and it was fun. I only quit because I was getting fed up with the game restarting for some reason and I was getting hungry. I'm not very good, but it was cool. Friday the 13th was pretty good for a remake. Nothing truly special, but some good kills ( Read more... )
