Beer Champ

The wife & kids went camping last weekend, leaving yours truly on his own for a good 48 hours.  Plenty of time to get into trouble.  By Saturday night, I had decided to go out, buy an 18-pack of Bud Light (enough for several nights, I reasoned), before finally deciding to go visit some friends at a nearby Mexican [...]

The Misfits – Alrosa Villa, Columbus OH 10/10/08

Caught up with Jerry Only & the boys last Friday.  Two things mark Halloween in my book – a Misfits show and seeing GWAR.  One down, one to go. Originally The Misfits were to be included on the Motorhead etc. bill that passed through about 2 weeks ago, but due to some “misunderstandings”, Jerry & crew [...]

All That Remains/Trivium – Newport Music Hall, Columbus Ohio 10/09/08

I originally posted that this show was for my twin daughters more than me, but guess what?  I was blown away by both headliners & and support acts alike. I’m looking to listen to back catalogs now to see what else I missed.  Here are my thoughts; The Human Abstract – First band on the bill with a [...]

OMG NO!!!

I cannot paraphrase this news any more succinctly than the guys over at Metal Sucks. But to shield the more impressionable of you, and because Quantcast says my readership is off the charts in the underage category (!?!?), the news is this; Limp Bizkit are reuniting (sans Wes Borland who is reportedly to tour with Marilyn Manson).  [...]

No More Drunk Emailing

Stealing a post idea from my buddy Chris who mentioned this on his site first before I saw it anywhere else. Apparently, well. . . according to the Official Gmail Blog, Google is working on a Gmail app that when activated, will help prevent messages from going out in the ‘wee hours’ that you might later regret. You [...]

Lars Ulrich on Iron Maiden & Cliff Burton & Some Other Stuff

Blabbermouth.net – There was a time when I equated anything Lars Ulrich said to ‘Mangina’. That being said, Blabbermouth has posted excerpts (at the link) to an excellent interview by Tom Trakas of ‘None But My Own‘ blog which doesn’t make me wanna kill Mr. Ulrich with my bare hands.  In fact, he comes off [...]

Kiss From Fan Ends Concert

MSN.com – Interesting article at the link about an unnamed Egyptian singer who’s concert in Kuwait was ended early by government officials when a female fan jumped up on stage & kissed him. The Horror, The Horror!! Bet the fan got some serious beatdown for her efforts too. All I can say is that Kuwait [...]

Overkill – Just Onna Counta

Look, some vids just speak for themselves. Never seen Overkill? This is what it’s like, from a safe distance. Enjoy. . .

Drunk Pumpkins

Short post tonight ’cause I’m off to a Blue Jackets game.  Below is the most excellent carved pumpkins display I’ve seen in a long time. . . Thanks to my friend Amy for the pic.

Rash of ’666′ Road Sign Thefts

Yahoo – Interesting article if you follow the link that relates about the rash of ’666′ road sign thefts that are plaguing authorities across the country.  The article states that anything with ‘Route 666′ in the name, or perhaps mile marker 66.6,  is highly sought after by thieves and is costing highway officials increasingly larger [...]
