Reverend Mortis & The Blustery Day

Ok, short post tonight because A) USC KILLED my Buckeyes on Saturday & I’m still recovering (not to mention Oregon’s damn luck at beating a clearly superior Boilermaker offense in Double OT).  Why do both games matter, you ask?  Because I AM a Boilermaker but I live in Columbus.  Plus my money goes to OSU thru my daughter so yes, both games matter.  Moving along [...]

Dyslexic Devil Worshippers

I’m bummed. . . The Misfits have dropped off the Volcom tour with Motorhead.  What is with that tour – two bands have dropped out of five?  Bad Kharma or bad business, you decide.  Anyhow, Columbus doesn’t get ASG either (the band replacing The Misfits) but instead the Supersuckers.  Harummph.  Jerry Only & the boys [...]

The Zen of Moshing

Ever been to a show and saw a sign up by the stage with the following words; “Warning: Moshing May Occur.  Know Your Surroundings”. Ok, that translates to my buddy Steve’s Rule #1 of Getting Through Life – “Don’t Be A Dumbass”.  Cuts to the point, that boy does. Yeah, I know those signs are [...]

It’s Finally Coming – The White Zombie Boxed Set!

Per Rob Zombie’s Myspace page; Well, I am now holding the finished newly master WZ box set in my hands. Yes, it is done! A long time coming but it is here. I’m not sure what the release day is yet, but it shouldn’t be much longer. I’m pretty you’ll be getting under your Christmas [...]

Classical Music & Metal Fans “Virtually Identical” According to Study

Blabbermouth.net – Despite obvious differences in style (and volume levels), a new study done by British researchers is saying that Classical music fans are “virtually identical” to Metalheads when it comes to personality traits, such as “being creative and at ease with themselves”.  This according to an article in The Herald. The survey was conducted [...]

H.P. Lovecraft’s Commonplace Book

Believe it or not, I do try to read books in addition to attending concerts, watching bad horror movies & jammin’ to some obscure metal.  My fav authors of all time have to be J.R.R. Tolkien, Edgar Allan Poe & H.P. Lovecraft.  If I’m feeling white & nerdy, I’ll read Tolkien.  If I’m in more [...]

Final Clippers Game at Cooper Stadium

I went to the final baseball game at Cooper Stadium last night, to watch the Columbus Clippers play (& get clobbered) in the third of a series against the Toledo Mudhens.  Next year, the Clippers move downtown to the new Huntington Park, across from Nationwide Arena and next door to the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion (the LC).   [...]
