  • What’s this? A real post?

    Granted, it’s not much of one. But it’s not some *made-up story… This weekend should be very busy and, at the same time, very entertaining. We start off tomorrow night with a raging kegger at the Short‘s. Actually, it’s a costume party, which should be fun. I’m pretty sure that most of the people there…

  • A Public Service Announcement

    The Corna is not to be confused with American Sign Language for ‘I Love You’ (as is shown below). Metal I Love You Thank You.

  • A feeling of relief

    What an interesting weekend. Not necessarily in the “awesome” sense, but more in the “this could be awesome” sense. Friday after work, we went to Rock Bottom to say farewell to the Praguenauts. I have pictures that I will post later today or tomorrow. Saturday, I dropped John off at the office so that he…

  • Poker, Araiza, Real, and a CLK430

    Friday night, John, Ali, Chris & Palmercat gal, and I went over to Mark‘s place for some poker. Had a lot of fun there, with Mark kicking total ass until Chris took over and wiped him out. Chris ended up winning $90 from the night. Bastard! My luck has become horrible at poker pretty much…

  • Summer Concerts, Gas Water Heaters, and Short Hair

    It’s been a while since I blogged, and seeing how I am extremely bored right now… Summer Concerts: Usually, the best concerts are during the summer months. And so far, there have been 3 of them that I have enjoyed immensly – Gigantour (with Dream Theater, Megadeth, Symphony X, Fear Factory, etc), Ra (with Breaking…

  • The Aftermath

    Last night, we (Rickey, Randall, and I) had our first rehearsal with Todd at the Guitar Helm. We all had fun and thought it was awesome. We ended up writing half of a song, which is very cool and very metal – heavy in areas, pleasant in others (I get a very Opeth vibe from…

  • Nuts!

    The plan was over 2 weeks in the making, considering that it got postponed last week due to Rickey having to work. But tonight was supposed to be the night – the night that we invited Todd into the studio to hang out, jam, and write some new music. He definitely has some interest in…

  • I’ve got… High Hopes

    Not more than 48 hours after the band breaks up, we are going full force in the direction that felt a long time off only 24 hours ago. You see – we had some ideas about where to look for a new singer and guitar player since we found out about Dave and Jason leaving.…

  • A Tale of Two Cities

    It was the best of times, it was the worst of times… This weekend was awesome. Friday night, we had a final run through of our setlist for the show on Saturday night. Things sounded fine, and we knew that the show would be a success. And it was. Saturday night rolled around and we…

  • Summertime Spending

    It seems that the hotter it gets in Phoenix during the summer months, the faster money burns holes in my pockets. For one, there is usually 1 or 2 kick ass concerts that need to be seen. This summer it is Gigantour – a co-headlining tour with Dream Theater and Megadeth. Not to mention Fear…
