Full length review of Dream Theater’s “Octavarium”
In a previous post, I had given a brief review of the new Dream Theater album, Octavarium. The reason I kept it brief was because the album had not yet been released and I did not want to give any spoilers away to the Dream Theater fans who may come across it. So now I…
Wanted… Dead or Alive
I, along with John, went to the birthday party on Saturday night. I certainly didn’t add my 2 cents to the musical stylings while the party was hopping. I had to go see a friend’s band play, so I left the party early. But I did return. And also sang a very poor rendition of…
I knew I should have posted my weekend report sooner…
I planned on posting a weekend update yesterday, but got caught up creating a flyer for the Phoenix Down show. And now that I am doing an update about my life, you’ll just have to trust me that I had planned what I am going to say before the **** (cow excrement – thanks Paul…
BEEEEEEP!
Consider this post an apology. I, in a post which is now deleted, referenced a coworker. Nothing derogatory towards this person was said. But the FCC made it known that it should be removed. I don’t feel as though I did anything wrong, but probably should not have used the name of someone who doesn’t…
I am a bad person
Yes I have, from time to time, downloaded an album that has not yet been released – via bitTorrent. I have also downloaded released albums, if only to see if I like it (but I do end up buying them if I like it). Take NIN‘s new “With Teeth” album – I thought it sucked,…
It’s a bug!
Ok, it’s not really a bug, per se, but it is something that I need to fix. I noticed today that multiple posts for the same day show up in different “boxes” on this site (see posts from Monday, May 23rd, 2005). Not too much of an issue. I guess the problem is that the…
Season finale for 24
I admit it – I am an avid fan of 24. And TiVo. Today, my plans got changed because we decided to have band rehearsal tonight instead of our normal Friday nights. The season finale of 24 was tonight. No worries – we have TiVo! I came home from work and double checked that it…
First (new) Post!
Welcome to the first post of my new blog. I have created YarshBlog using Blogger, specifically due to its template structure. These templates gave me enough leeway (for the most part) to have it look exactly as I want it to. I had some difficulties with the links from the main page to both archive…
You may see some work here…
Just an FYI – I am editing the Blogger template with enough success that I can have it be my main blog site under retro.yarsh.com. So, that is what I am currently focused on doing. Hopefully I will be able to edit everything enough to the point that I can start using this thing permanently…
I just got this
So that I can post a comment on Mark’s blog (and now John’s and Chris’). Honestly, I think it might be time for me to just build my own blog tool, or use something like SWilliams is using, and place it on my actual website – thus bring traffic to my website again. We’ll see……
