Thanks bruthah.

New Arch Enemy

Brand new Ghost with Papa Emeritus III

^ I like the song Gunnar.

I don't know a lot of Ghost, but I like this one.



They'd probably be cool to see live.

That's Papa Emeritus I. Papa II was meh. I'm really liking Papa III material so far, and yes they are awesome live.

Here's the video. like how they did the whole 70's lo budget horror flick vibe.


Papa III looks pretty young, unless that's an actor to blend the whole kids talent show thing.

Awesome video. Awesome band. Nuff said.

This new LOG album is showing the potential to be my favorite.

I know this is BG1'S playground, but I just thought I'd share that my ex's 21 year old who is active in several metal core bands just got tapped to join a group called October and play Roverfest 2015 in Cleveland Ohio. That's actually a pretty big deal as it is sponsored by a national syndicated morning radio program. He's also been asked to stay on and tour with them, and his own band was signed to a record contract as I probably mentioned before. The kid is good as well as driven. I wouldn't be surprised to see him blow up.

That's great news Dono. I'd encourage him to focus on that tour though. There's more money in being a hired gun on tour than there is in a record deal. The touring band is getting promoted as well as exposure and experience.

Hey! That's very exciting, huh.

Did you get married? We have Sally knocked up again whenever she is MIA.

Lol no. Just TCB in the summertime. The ex -gf has turned into the psycho hose beast from the beginning of Wayne ' s World and I had to literally break up with her all over again. I mean seriously, what part of "broke the fuck up and moved the fuck out" did she find confusing?

Yeah I think that's the way he's headed. He's got all the skills and talent and drive to make it, plus one ability his dad never had. He knows when a music style needs to adapt to the audience. Music is a business and musicians who get too attached to a "style" wind up playing nostalgia reunion tours.

She's blinded by love. I say that jokingly but in all seriousness, some people do some bizarre, confusing things when they are still in love. I've seen more than one example of people refusing to take no for an answer.
