BBC News – This is an old article but I still found it ironic. Ok, and a little humorous. Anyhow, back in early May the BBC News website (linked above) ran an article citing a Norwich Union Healthcare study which found that of those surveyed, one in three admited to showing up at work hungover [...]

Arlo Guthrie
Posted by RevMortis on August 12th, 2008
Attended an Arlo Guthrie concert on Sunday night – my kids won free tickets at Comfest earlier this Summer. Not going to do a full-on review as it’s not the type of music I typically write about here, but if you ever get the chance to see him live, I recommend it. You gotta appreciate your [...]
Ohio State Fair – 2008
Posted by RevMortis on August 11th, 2008
So where’s the Rev been, you ask? It’s been a bit silent in the ole’ Rim lately. Well. . .yes. The work of the wicked is never done, is it? hehe. Friday night, most of the family & I attended this year’s Ohio State Fair – which never mind the rides and fair food, I’m [...]
Great White/Ratt – LC Pavilion, Columbus OH 8/6/08
Posted by RevMortis on August 7th, 2008
US Army sponsored triple bill of 80′s metal started off with Naked Beggars, who are notable for being a side project of Cinderella Bassist Eric Brittingham & his wife Inga. It was kinda average rock n’ roll with a southern tint, but I didn’t much care for their interpretation of Aerosmith’s ‘Dream On’. Judging by crowd reaction (which [...]

So those wacky marketing guru’s at HBO, in order to promote the upcoming southern vampire series True Blood (debuts Sept. 7th), have begun promoting a ‘synthetic blood’ drink called Tru Blood with various ‘fake’ sites and Myspace pages. One such site (http://www.trubeverage.com) allows one to find out his/her ‘type’, buy Tru Blood gear, download wallpapers etc [...]
Introducing Jack Ripper
Posted by RevMortis on August 5th, 2008
Jack Ripper. Remember the name as you’re sure to be seeing it again. He’s a 12 (!!!) year old guitar prodigy out of Phoeniz, AZ who’s mentioned in a great little post on Blabbermouth.net. That same post also links to an interview he did with XM radio’s Eddie Trunk, as well as some awesome footage of the young shredder playing [...]
Dublin Irish Festival – 2008
Posted by RevMortis on August 4th, 2008
After 11 years in Columbus, you would think I’d have attended the Dublin Irish Festival before now, wouldn’t you? But no, this was my first year – but it certainly won’t be my last! The festival (one of the largest in the country) is a sprawling 3 day affair situated in Coffman Park in the [...]
Rim of Hell Astore Now Open

It can be accessed thru the Store tab off the homepage or just by going HERE. You can go anywhere on Amazon from this storefront and any purchases will [...]
